I treat children, adolescents and adults who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood dysregulation and behavioral difficulties. I have a history of working with persons who are dual diagnosed and I also treat individuals who are struggling with life transitions and other day to day challenges. In addition, I work with couples who are struggling with communicating effectively and understanding their significant other's perspective. There are other licensed providers working in the practice. One of our providers will be running a DBT skills training group for adolescents. This group will run for 6 weeks and we are currently accepting referrals.
My approach to helping you is supportive, non-judgmental, and honest. In order to help, sometimes you need guidance, direction, information, or just a listening ear. I feel it is important to create a safe place in which you feel free to explore your struggles, questions, and give a voice to the reality of your life. With awareness comes the choice to change.

Visiting this page is your first step! I'm an independently licensed psychotherapist and owner of a private practice, located in both East Greenwich & North Providence, RI. My approach is upfront, honest, and science-based. I believe in finding patterns of behavior in your life and drawing your attention to these patterns. In order to move forward and make progress, I believe in using the principles of neuropsychology and other science-based approaches to make realistic and sustainable change for you. Ultimately, the sessions are yours and yours only. You entirely decide the direction of our sessions - even if I suggest we go in a different direction.
You want to feel fulfilled, empowered, and confident, but deep down you feel anxious, overwhelmed, and out of control with food. You may be fed up with constant restriction, overeating, or both; feeling disconnected and numb; or completely hating your body. You might not even remember a time when it didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to heal your relationship with food. You’re ready to feel better in your own skin. Most of all, you’re ready to take control of your life. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who treats the whole person, not just the eating condition. Sessions with me are comfortable and interactive. Together, we increase mindfulness of the root cause of the eating issue, assess your personal values and goals, and learn the tools to find fulfillment, connection, and peace. As an experienced eating condition therapist, I believe that everyone has the inner wisdom they need to heal. I can help you access it. You don’t have to continue living with the eating issue, and you don’t have to do it alone. Call me today for a free consultation. I can’t wait to hear from you.
