About

Adolescence and young adulthood can be intensely tender seasons—especially when layered with trauma, identity exploration, or feeling out of sync with the world around you. You might feel pressure to be okay when inside, things feel anything but. With an MSW from Smith College and a grounding in DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing, I support LGBTQ+ teens and young adults navigating PTSD, emotional overwhelm, and the search for authenticity.
