My journey into social work began with my personal experiences and a deep passion for creating safe, supportive spaces where individuals and families can heal, grow, and thrive.
My early career focused on working with underserved communities, where I built a strong foundation in addressing systemic barriers and fostering resilience. Over time, my work expanded to include adolescents and adults facing complex challenges such as substance use, medical diagnoses, intimate partner violence, housing instability, life transitions, and trauma. I also served as the Clinical Program Manager at Fenway Health / AIDS Action Committee, where I developed and led trauma-informed programs to promote health equity and empowerment.
In addition to my clinical experience, I have over seven years of experience designing and leading programs to build resilience, navigate life challenges, and foster personal and social growth. I aim to create a safe, engaging environment where clients feel empowered to explore difficult topics, process trauma, and express thoughts they may have never shared. I believe in a collaborative approach in therapy, where you are the expert of your own life. Together, we will explore your goals, build on your strengths, and create pathways for growth and healing. I know that healing is not linear, and my role is to provide tools, insights, and a safe, supportive space for you to navigate your unique journey. When not working, I enjoy dancing, traveling, exploring new restaurants, and spending time with loved ones. I also value self-care and lifelong learning, continually seeking opportunities to grow my clinical skills and better serve my clients.
