About
As a middle aged woman I understand many life issues including relationships, life changes and family dynamics.
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with 28 years of experience in the mental health field. I am passionate about helping transitional age youth and adults address current and past issues to help them address their unique challenges. I specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self-esteem, and major life transitions. I believe that talk therapy is a process of exploration of learning and growth.
I completed my Master of Social Work at Boston College. I am passionate about nature and have found much growth on hiking trails. This and an enriching family life enable me to provide the support and guidance my clients are seeking. I use mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy.
We all go through challenges and changes in life. I am confident that I would be able to help and support you on your journey to learn new skills and gain new perspectives that allow you to cope with whatever you are struggling with. If you are ready to do the work, schedule an appointment today!

Panic attack disorder therapy is a specialized therapeutic approach designed to help individuals suffering from recurrent and debilitating panic attacks. During therapy sessions, individuals work closely with trained Thriveworks Franklin therapists to identify and understand the triggers and thought patterns that contribute to their panic attacks. Through panic attack disorder therapy, individuals learn to manage their anxiety, develop coping strategies, and regain control over their lives, ultimately leading to a reduction in the severity of panic attacks.
Panic attack disorder therapy often utilizes cognitive-behavioral techniques like exposure therapy and relaxation exercises to help individuals manage and mitigate panic attacks. These methods involve desensitizing triggers, reducing physical and emotional symptoms, and challenging irrational thought patterns to empower individuals to recognize, control, and reduce the frequency and intensity of panic attacks.
Panic attack disorder therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and through Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Panic attack disorder therapy may last for a variable amount of time, depending on the individual’s unique needs.
People who have experienced panic attacks may find that triggers are similar to the stressful situations that serve as “setting events” to these attacks. People suffering from panic attacks also tend to experience confusion, embarrassment and a feeling of dread regarding their future. Many panic attacks are so severe that people experiencing them often believe that they are having a heart attack, stroke or, even, dying.
Many times, people with these symptoms will visit an emergency room with these symptoms only to be told, after testing, that there is no medical cause of their symptoms. They are then referred to a behavioral health professional such as those at Thriveworks Franklin. If you think you could benefit from panic attack disorder counseling, reach out to Thriveworks Franklin today. We’re here to help.
People suffering from a panic attack may experience an array of symptoms that may include:
Although panic attacks can occur at any age, their onset is most likely to occur in early adulthood. It is also more likely to occur with individuals of above average intelligence. Other factors influencing the occurrence of a panic disorder include:
The clinicians at Thriveworks Franklin are trained professionals who can help the individual suffering from panic attacks to manage their anxiety and work to prevent panic attacks. The counselors and therapists at Thriveworks Franklin understand the desperation one feels from the embarrassment and helplessness often associated with these attacks. Panic attacks can affect your relationships, your work, and your social life. For this reason, Thriveworks does not have waiting lists. Appointments are often available within the same week for new clients. So, call Thriveworks Franklin at 617-360-7210 today. Don’t suffer in silence any longer.
