Therapy
Therapy with me
I provide therapy under my Massachusetts LICSW license, to people located in Massachusetts, in person or by telehealth.
If you’ve been experiencing anxiety, trauma, or a pattern you can’t quite name, this is a place to slow down and work with it, not just talk about it.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy. I specialize in acute and complex trauma, anxiety, depression, and experiences that can be difficult to put into words.
EMDR helps your brain differentiate between past and present so you can remember an experience without reliving it and replace any core negative beliefs you may have absorbed with truer positive ones.
My approach is collaborative and embodied. The body carries memories and patterns that the mind can’t always put into words. Depending on what’s needed, I may draw from somatic approaches and Internal Family Systems-informed parts work, while also bringing a systemic lens to how family and generational patterns may shape who you are today. When it fits, I may also weave in energy practices, sound, or constellation work as part of our clinical sessions.

“Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.”
— Peter Levine

WHAT TO EXPECT
It begins with a conversation.
We start with an initial session to get a sense of what’s bringing you in and what kind of support you’re looking for. From there, sessions are collaborative. Some people come for ongoing therapy, while others choose focused EMDR work or longer EMDR intensives when they want dedicated time to work on a particular issue.
I don’t bill insurance directly. If you live in Massachusetts and have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill you can submit for possible reimbursement.
