About

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 40 years of experience and postgraduate training in Family Systems Therapy.

My approach blends deep empathy with proven, evidence-based methods — attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and relational work — to help you navigate emotional challenges and strengthen your capacity for connection and resilience.

Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use recovery, or a relationship that feels stuck, I bring both clinical experience and genuine care to our work together.

Before starting my private practice, I served as Director at the South Boston Collaborative Center, where I helped expand access to mental health and substance use treatment across the Greater Boston community — work that shaped how I think about care being both rigorous and genuinely reachable.

Whether you're dealing with personal struggles, relationship strain, or mental health concerns, I'm here to provide support, practical strategies, and a compassionate ear — to help you find your way to a calmer, more connected life.

What is a clinical social worker?

A clinical social worker is like a trusted guide on your journey to better mental and emotional health — someone trained to understand human behavior and the systems that shape our lives, from relationships to family to community.

As a clinical social worker with over 40 years of experience, I bring that training directly into our work together — offering support, practical strategies, and a compassionate ear to help you find your way to a calmer, more connected life.
