About Our Practice
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience working with individuals during some of the most difficult times of their lives. After graduating from Southern New Hampshire University with my Master’s degree in Community Mental Health, I followed my heart in working with patients in a community mental health setting. During my graduate work and studies I spent much time working with victims of domestic violence, therapeutic mentoring and volunteering for Girls on the Run. I have provided supportive Emergency Services and Crisis Therapy wherein I assessed patients in crisis and connected them to needed interventions whether inpatient stabilization or outpatient care. I spent 13 years of my career working in crisis mental health care and it was there that I discovered my passion for perinatal mental health.
I am highly trained and experienced in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Grief and Trauma support, and in 2019 I was certified in Perinatal Mental Health Counseling through Postpartum Support International. Through my Perinatal Clinic I have provided compassionate care for pregnant and new mothers during all stages of pregnancy and the post part period.
The training I have received in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders includes assessment and psychotherapeutic approaches to treatment with advanced issues, grief and loss as it relates to perinatal mental health and evidenced based psychotherapeutic tools to address symptoms of perinatal mental health disorders.
I utilize compassionate regard to support individuals in their journey of self exploration, identifying their strengths and resiliencies, and embracing their best version of themselves.
