Accepting Clients

I am a holistic therapist specializing in eating disorders and anxiety/depression in adults. I believe in my clients' strengths and stories.

Licensed Master of Social Work in West Hartford, CT
Supervised by Samantha Murphy, LPC

About My Clients

If you are struggling with an eating disorder, or not sure if you have one or not, I am here to help you. It can be exhausting reaching and maintaining recovery on your own and you do not have to. I use a HAES-aligned approach to identify the root cause of your struggle while providing you with tools to cope that build on your strengths. EDs are very treatable with the right providers to support your healing process.

My Background and Approach

My goal is to provide a supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings and develop the skills needed to fully experience all aspects of life. My approach to therapy is collaborative and client-centered. I work closely with each client to develop an individualized treatment plan that meets their specific needs and goals. Through our work together, clients can learn to identify their strengths, improve their self-esteem, and develop a greater sense of self-awareness. I have worked with individuals from a wide range of ages and backgrounds and I am committed to providing culturally sensitive care. I strive to create an environment where clients feel heard and understood. I bring elements of my personality and humor into the clinical relationship in order to build a genuine and lasting connection with my clients. I believe in the power of collaboration and work closely with each client to develop an individualized treatment plan that meets their specific needs.
