Consultations

I know reaching out for help can be daunting—especially if you’ve been carrying pain or uncertainty for a long time. Some people ask about consultations, and I understand why. I’ve found that the most meaningful progress begins with a formal appointment. A single, short conversation can open up wounds and isn’t enough time to fully understand the layers of your story—especially when we’re working through experiences built over years, or even decades. An appointment gives us the time and space to unpack what really matters, start understanding each other, and build a path forward for you.

If you’d like to get a sense of how I work, feel free to watch my introductory video. This will give you a little insight into how I work. My goal is to help guide clients through life's toughest changes for clarity, confidence, and personal growth.

When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment—I’d be honored to work with you.

My Approach

"Creating Positive Outcomes: Guiding you through life's changes with clarity & confidence to turn transitions into growth. I limit patient load to maintain an open and flexible schedule day, evening, and weekend sessions to fit your life."

I make therapy accessible by accepting insurance that is verified before our first session so you know exactly what to expect. Prefer private pay? I take credit cards too. My focus is easing your transitions.


With a warm, practical approach, I offer seasoned support to help you move from uncertainty to confidence. Together, we turn life’s upheavals into opportunities for growth, resilience, and self-discovery.


Licensed in Massachusetts, I keep a limited caseload for flexible day, evening, and weekend sessions that fit your life.
