I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Level 3 AEDP therapist specializing in trauma, dissociation, eating disorders, depression, and anxiety.  I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and groups, with a particular interest in the ways complex trauma shapes our relationships, our sense of self, and the ways we learn to survive.

My approach is warm, relational, and deeply compassionate.  I believe therapy should offer more than symptom relief.  It should provide a safe and genuine relationship in which clients can begin to understand the adaptations that once helped them survive, experience themselves differently, and create possibilities that may not have felt available before.  My work draws from experiential, psychodynamic, behavioral, and trauma-focused approaches, with AEDP at the heart of my practice.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Simmons University in Boston, where I specialized in trauma and interpersonal violence and received a Faculty Leadership Award.  My clinical experience has included an eating disorder partial hospitalization program, inpatient psychiatric unit, psychiatric emergency assessment, community mental health, hospital-based outpatient care, and private practice.  I also hold a BA in Psychology and Sociology from SUNY Geneseo and am licensed to practice in New York State.
