ABOUT


I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology at UMass Amherst in 2009 and my master’s degree in psychology from Westfield State University in 2015, also earning the Bazemore, Edwards, & Warner Award for LGBT issue advancement. I am EMDR Certified and trained in a variety of trauma-healing methods, including Progressive Counting, Flash, and ART.

I utilize a compassionate and innovative approach with these techniques and my years of practice to help clients heal from past wounds. This format fosters empowerment to gently explore your deepest pain and access your inner strength. As a Certified Geek Therapist, I can also incorporate your passions into the healing process.

Many clients experience a powerful sense of liberation, an unshackling from the weight of the past. Clients describe feeling "lighter" and "free," no longer burdened by this lingering heaviness. Self-love, self-compassion, and self-worth come more easily, more strongly, and more naturally; and this is accomplished in days, not years. I invite you to reach out and connect if you are looking for powerful shifts and changes in your life!
