I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, supported, and empowered to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful change.
I’m a licensed counselor in New York and Massachusetts with a clinical background working with individuals experiencing substance use challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, and complex family dynamics. I earned my degree from the University at Albany, and I’ve worked extensively with children and families in the foster care system, as well as survivors of sexual abuse and assault. I especially enjoy working with young adults navigating anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns, as well as mothers adjusting to motherhood and finding their voice within the family system.
I offer a nonjudgmental, down-to-earth therapeutic space where clients can explore their experiences and better understand how past events shape current thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. My approach is collaborative and supportive, helping motivated clients build self-worth, clarify goals, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
Life doesn’t always unfold the way we expect, and navigating unexpected challenges can feel overwhelming. You don’t have to do it alone. I aim to help clients feel supported, understood, and empowered as they work toward a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling. I hope this feels like a space where you could begin that work.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Yes, we offer comprehensive psychiatric services to meet your mental health needs.
Psychiatry allows people struggling to manage mental conditions or disorders to get access to medications that will make daily functioning easier, as well as work through any mental factors that might be causing or worsening their condition. Though medications can’t cure mental disorders, medication can make symptoms more manageable, making the process of psychotherapeutic treatment easier and more effective. Psychiatric care can be available through in-person psychiatry and online psychiatry, depending on where you live and your own preferences. However, psychiatric providers at Thriveworks in Somerville, MA specifically offer online psychiatry to their clients.
A therapist has an education specifically rooted in therapeutic practice, approaches, techniques, and treatment. They cannot prescribe medications for clients, though they often refer clients to psychiatrists for medication management. Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialize in mental health treatment, mainly through medication management and prescription, though they can also practice therapy.
A Psychiatry Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly trained and licensed professional who specializes in mental health care. They are qualified to diagnose and treat mental health conditions, prescribe medications, and provide therapy. Psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks are qualified to prescribe medications for a variety of mental health conditions. They work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Oftentimes, psychiatrists or psychiatric professionals will perform a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which involves an in-depth discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and current medications. Once they reach a diagnosis, they may suggest starting certain medications depending on your condition and the intensity of your symptoms.
Yes. At Thriveworks, we offer online-only psychiatry services for optimal comfort and convenience.
Psychiatric services at Thriveworks Somerville can last for as little or as much time as the client needs to reach their treatment goals, whether that be a month or two or over the course of a year. Treatment length is heavily dependent on the condition(s) being treated, the course of treatment, and the client’s goals for treatment.
Psychiatrists are mental health professionals who can prescribe anxiety medication and provide therapeutic treatment for anxiety, although not all psychiatrists offer therapy. At Thriveworks, medication management occurs via online psychiatry sessions.
Yes, Thriveworks accepts most major insurance plans. We strive to make mental health care accessible and affordable for everyone.
Our emotions play a huge part in our mental health. When we feel depressed, angry, or stressed, these feelings might signify the development or presence of a mental health condition. Additionally, learning to address these emotions properly can help us manage mental disorders and heal our minds.
In a nutshell, psychiatric nurse practitioners can support our mental and emotional health. If you think you could benefit from working with one, reach out to Thriveworks Counseling in Somerville, MA. Psychiatry is just one field in the mental health realm that our providers specialize in. To schedule an appointment or find out more, call our Somerville office. We look forward to it.
Medication is an important part of treatment for mental illness. And it can benefit many people, especially those diagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, panic disorder, just to name a few mental health disorders.
If your Thriveworks psychiatric nurse practitioner does prescribe you a medication, you must meet with them in regular sessions (usually monthly). In these meetings or check-ins, you will talk to your psychiatric provider about how the medication is working for you or how it is not working for you. If you’re suffering from negative side effects that outweigh the positive effects, your provider can help you find another medication that is a better fit.
No matter the prescription, your psychiatric provider will explain exactly how you should take your medication, including how often and what time of day. If you ever have any questions, please don’t be afraid to ask. There are no dumb questions, and your provider will be happy to answer them.
