I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who obtained my degree from Southern Connecticut State University in 2019. I hold a Masters in Marital and Family Therapy, Bachelors in Psychology with a Mental Health Focus and an Associates in Human Services. I have experience working in various levels of care including, residential, emergency and outpatient.
Everyone has their own unique narrative and I believe exploring this can help make life changing differences. I employ an approach were we can work towards a resolution by eliminating blame and externalizing the “problem.” Through this I hope to help guide those going through turbulent times. Beginning or restarting therapy is a challenge and so I am committed to making this a non-judgemental, safe process.
Offering individual, family and EMDR therapy I use evidenced based practices while individualizing care to match your need. I specialize with those who have endured trauma, depression, anxiety-related issues, eating disorders and family conflicts. I provide treatment to adolescents, young adults, adults and families. I firmly believe a strong therapeutic relationship is key to a clients therapy success and so my treatment is collaborative with a goal to promote empowerment and strength-building.
