- LICSW
I am licensed in Massachusetts with 8 years of professional work experience. I have a Doctor and Master in Social Work from Simmons University. Some specific populations I have worked with include older adults, adults with disabilities, people who use drugs, people who hear voices, and those who have experience complex trauma. I also have experience working with compassion fatigue, especially as a clinical manager. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I also consider my own background and biases and how this may affect our therapeutic relationship. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
