ABOUT ME

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over 25 years of experience supporting diverse individuals across a wide range of settings. I’ve had the opportunity to work in hospitals, community mental health, and digital health platforms, and have provided therapy to professionals in Universities, Big Tech, and Fortune 500 companies.

Drawing on both professional expertise and personal experience, I bring a unique blend of empathy, practical insight, and a deep understanding of human resilience. I create a warm, culturally sensitive, and client-centered space, with care tailored to your individual needs and values. My approach is strengths-based and integrates evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness practices, and Motivational Interviewing.

Clinically, I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, depression, stress management, grief, interpersonal relationships, and spirituality. As a certified Transitional Intelligence coach trained in the Modern Elder Academy’s (MEA) Navigating Transitions framework, I also support clients through research-based models that blends longevity science with intentional living practices. Whether through counseling or coaching, I work collaboratively with you to highlight your strengths, foster growth, and help you create a meaningful, fulfilling life.

As a lifelong learner, I earned a graduate certificate in Organizational Behavior from Harvard Extension School, and taught a course on mental health and mental illness as an adjunct faculty member at Boston College. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and three adult children, reading, traveling, photography, and embracing new learning opportunities and experiences.
