About
As one who has experience in providing trauma-informed care, I have an in-depth understanding of how we are affected by traumatic life situations and how building new coping strategies can empower us once again.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 15 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges. I provide trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and person-centered care to adolescents and adults. I help clients navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, stress, and life transitions with compassion, clarity, and respect.
I earned my Master of Science in nursing from Rivier University. My clinical approach integrates evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, and strength-based techniques. I strive to create a collaborative therapeutic space grounded in empathy, trust, and personal growth.
In our first session, we will focus on understanding your goals, experiences, and needs. I aim to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered as we work together to build resilience and meaningful change. My priority is to help you move toward healing at a pace that feels right for you and to offer guidance that honors your unique story.

Booking your first appointment is a meaningful step toward greater clarity, balance, and deeper self-understanding. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel truly heard.
I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with over 13 years of experience providing thoughtful, evidence-based care to adults navigating life’s challenges. I work with individuals seeking greater clarity, balance, and self-understanding as they manage concerns related to work stress, relationships, personal growth, parenting, and life transitions. My approach is warm, supportive, and grounded in helping clients feel heard and understood. I value collaboration and tailor treatment to each client’s goals and needs.
I earned my master’s degree in clinical counseling psychology from Assumption College. My clinical background includes certification in cognitive behavioral therapy and extensive experience supporting clients through structured, skill-building work that promotes insight, emotional regulation, and sustainable change.
Beginning therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you are used to handling things on your own. I strive to create a steady, reflective space where you can slow down, gain perspective, and move forward with intention. When you are ready, I welcome the opportunity to work together and support you in this next chapter

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
