About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut and Registered Yoga Teacher with over 20 years experience. My experience is primarily with adults of all ages in a variety of settings. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, adjustment to life transitions, adjustment to illness and chronic disease, end of life counseling, grief and loss, and caregiver stress and related issues.
My therapy style is compassionate, nonjudgmental, warm, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect and sensitivity and view my role as supporting you in the therapeutic process. I will tailor your therapy to best meet your individual needs. My approach is client centered and combines cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution focused therapy, while using a strength based perspective.
It can be hard to seek help and I appreciate the courage that it takes to initiate this process. I look forward to working with you.
