I believe each person possesses the innate wisdom and ability to uncover meaning and solutions within themselves and ultimately heal. We will be co-collaborators in this process; your internal wish to heal will be our guide. My approach is relational, warm, and non-judgmental. I draw from various modalities, integrating person-centered, attachment, psychodynamic and somatic therapy into the work as needed. I rely on humor as I believe laughter is transformational, cathartic and connective. I am flexible and responsive, working intuitively to best serve you and help foster a space for genuine healing, growth, and self-understanding.

For many years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting young people (18 and up) as they transition into adulthood; a life phase I feel profoundly connected to. I also support individuals and couples as they grapple with attachment wounds, trauma, shame, self-worth, identity, chronic pain and illness, bereavement, transitions, anxiety, depression, and end-of-life care.

Together we will create a safe place for you to explore hurt, shame, loss and whatever else unfolds. This process of exploration and uncovering will help release old wounds and patterns, foster trust in self, and empower you to define your own path forward.

Beyond my role as therapist I am a mother and a jazz singer. I love to laugh, hike, dance, read, drink tea and knit. These practices help me stay balanced and connected.

It would be my honor to share in your path toward healing, self-discovery and meaning making.

I offer therapy in a lovely, light-filled office in Housatonic, MA, or online via zoom. I’m available weekdays and some evenings.

I am in network for Blue Cross Blue Shield. I also work out of network. My fee is $150 for individuals and $225 for couples. I also provide sliding scale on a case by case basis.
