Professional statement

**Feeling truly known and understood is at the heart of effective therapy.** I support my clients by creating a space of warmth, confidentiality, and deep empathy, approaching treatment with genuine curiosity and care.

My therapeutic approach is holistic, addressing both immediate concerns and long-term well-being. I help clients navigate challenges such as grief and loss, relationship struggles, and personal growth. By exploring how past experiences shape present emotions and behaviors, I empower clients to make meaningful, lasting changes in their lives.

I work with adolescents, college students, couples, and adults in Providence, Rhode Island. In my practice, I foster a safe, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Recognizing that every journey is unique, I tailor my approach to meet each individual’s specific needs and goals.

I believe in the power of strong, healthy relationships—both with oneself and with others. Through collaboration, we establish goals that deepen connections, enhance self-awareness and self-acceptance, and cultivate inner peace and fulfillment. My goal is to help clients recognize their inherent strength and resilience while supporting them every step of the way on their path to healing and growth.


Message to clients

Therapy is more than just problem-solving—it’s a relationship built on trust, support, and affirmation. I believe that a strong connection is essential for meaningful progress, and an initial phone call is a comfortable way to begin that journey.

My approach is holistic, addressing both immediate challenges and long-term well-being. Therapy is not just about managing difficulties but also about cultivating a life that feels fulfilling, authentic, and connected.

Together, we can create a path toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and joy. Let’s take the first step—give me a call. I look forward to hearing from you.
