About My Clients

I specialize in helping adults, caregivers, teens, and other therapists work through past trauma and have extensive experience helping folks manage anxiety, depression, and general life stressors. I also have years of experience supervising both licensed and unlicensed clinicians.

My Background and Approach

I started my clinical social work career as a therapist for a crisis response program. Following the tragedy in Newtown, I spent 2.5 years providing therapeutic support to the families, children, and staff at Sandy Hook School. From there, the New Haven Trauma Coalition was born, and I spent next nine years as a therapist and clinical manager of trauma-informed school programs across New Haven and Hamden. Years of extensive clinical experience and training has led me to private practice, where I feel honored to provide folks with trauma-informed care that comes from a place of compassion and understanding.
