About me
I am an independent, licensed, clinical social worker with over 25 years of practice. I am based in Massachusetts and have been in New England for my whole career. I have a wide range of professional experiences. Early in my career, I focused primarily in mental health, trauma and eating disorders. In more recent years, my work has been around grief, loss and breavement. I am able to work well with many age ranges including young adults, middle-age and the elderly.
My work is client-centered and I am warm and supportive. I am a good listener and like to reflect back the issues and strengths that are present. I also have an ability to understand the bigger picture and help clients to shift their perspective. I know that creating coping skills is important and having concrete tools can be essential. I work with clients to have a better understanding and connection to themselves and their own inner guidance.
I also have a background in healing modalities and use my skills in meditation and breathwork when it is helpful. My style is eclectic and I enjoy pulling from my skill set whatever aspects are most helpful for the client.
I get great joy from helping people to feel better! If you feel I would be a good therapist for you at this time, please contact me here.
