I worked for years with senior citizens in nursing home settings in PA and when I moved to MA I worked with teen mothers in state custody. After working with young adults in state custody I knew I wanted to go back to school for my degree in counseling because I wanted to continue to make a difference in the lives of others.

I work best with all ages but my passion is children, adolescents, young adults, and women who have experienced trauma.

There is hope and light at the end of the tunnel and sometimes we have to walk through the pain to get there.

I was drawn to the mission of Thriveworks and what they stand for with their 5 core values; especially, Do-Gooders and Teamworks. These two core values along with the others will continue to allow me to grow as a clinician and to challenge my clients to become healthier than what they already are.

My children inspire me to be a better person and the best parent I can in my life. I was always inspired by Mother Theresa from Calcutta who walked the red district streets to help the poorest of the poor especially children.

Clients can expect a nonthreatening environment and feeling of safety with a therapist who is empathetic and compassionate.

First session, I would like to accomplish a sense of building a therapeutic relationship and establish boundaries by sharing as much as comfortable. As a clinician I would want to know past counseling experiences such as what worked and what did not, what they hope to achieve and what they seek in a clinician.

I would want my client's to know you get out of therapy what you put into it; you are the pilot and I am the copilot willing to jump in and support when needed. I will there to support you but also challenge you towards ongoing growth.

I love traveling with my family and exploring new places and cultures. Aside of traveling, I love watching my oldest daughter compete in her America Ninja Warrior runs and my other daughter doing cheer competitions.

I am reliable
