Personal Philosophy on Therapy:
What motivates you to be a therapist?
I have always wanted to be a helper for others, and while my path to becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line, that was always the end goal. I want to help others find their authentic selves and embrace, and nurture, their whole selves while taking control of their lives and feeling empowered to make changes which improve their quality of life.
What do you believe is the most important aspect of the therapeutic process?

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who provides therapy to persons 5-18 years of age. I value the complexity of the educational years in a child’s life, which is what led me to my current role as a School-Based Counselor in the Newton Public Schools. My focus is to meet people where they are and walk alongside them to where they want to be. I’m dedicated to empowering others through collaborative and relational person-centered practices. This means I approach therapy as a joint venture where the client is the best resource for treatment and we combine our knowledge and skills to create solutions together. I value the use of humor, creativity, curiosity, authenticity, and reflection to increase a deeper understanding of one’s self and how we relate with others.

Education and Credentials:
Highest Degree Earned: PsyD in Clinical Psychology
Institution where degree was obtained: University of Denver
Relevant Certifications: working on certification in EMDR
Clinical Experience:
Years of Practice as a Therapist: 5 years post internship, about 10 years total including school
Types of settings where you have practiced (e.g., Private Practice, Clinic, Hospital): Private Practice, VA clinic, VA residential and outpatient clinics, Primary Care Mental Health Integration (PCMHI), Specialty Clinic (Geropsychology), Community Mental Health, Acute Inpatient Hospital, Home-based PCMHI
Client populations you have worked with extensively (e.g., Adults, Children, Couples, Families): Adults, Older Adults, Adolescents
Specialization and Expertise:

Specific populations or concerns you particularly specialize in: Through my DBT work I am often connected with individuals who have more complex problems and situations, including chronic thoughts of suicide. I also really love working with older adults and caregivers. My focus has been on developing skill and comfort with diverse people and life problems so I would characterize myself as a generalist.
Therapeutic Approach:
Preferred therapeutic modalities: Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, Human-centered, Psychodynamic, ego state therapy
Key principles or values guiding your therapeutic approach: I approach therapy first as a relationship and second as an opportunity to learn how our brains respond to events and how we can use the information we learn to gain more understanding and control over our future responses. I am a nerd for neurophysiology and figuring out ways to reprogram unhelpful patterns that are meant to keep us alive--but not necessarily working for us any longer. Changing the way we do things can be pretty challenging and frustrating, and extremely rewarding.
Personal Philosophy on Therapy:
What motivates you to be a therapist? I love what I do because I see how the process improves lives. And I get to go on this journey again and again with different people, each of whom I learn from as well.
What do you believe is the most important aspect of the therapeutic process? The most important aspect to me is the relationship. I am ok if someone does not like me or trust me, the important part is that we find a way to develop that with the right person later on. Nobody fails at therapy. We sometimes just don’t get all the right ingredients to make it work every time, with every person, so finding that mix is important.
Practicing as a licensed masters social worker since 2012, I strive to create a safe space where individuals and families are seen and valued for their lived experience, as no two experiences are the same, nor the symptoms that follow. Through a client centered approach, I come alongside the child and family to explore that lived experience, while working together to create a unique treatment plan that assists in positive transformation. I look forward to hearing your story.
