Psychotherapy can be a transformative experience that helps you explore your inner world. My approach allows us to explore the parts of yourself that remain hidden, difficult to understand, slow to change, and, frankly, stuck.

I have a master’s in Drama Therapy and Mental Health Counseling from Lesley University and have continued to see...
