(A Home Within)
Were you raised in a household where your parents yelled, hit you, abused substances or had poor boundaries?
Did you grow up feeling anxious, not knowing what to expect from one day to the next?
Are you fearful you will repeat the behaviors of your parents and your kids will grow up in a similar environment to yours?
Do you see similar behaviors in your children to yourself as a child?
Do you want your children to have a healthier, happier childhood?
Are you feeling ready to make changes in your life?
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. I own a practice driven by empathy, emotional connection and a purpose to support you on your healing journey.
I have been working as a complex trauna, child and family therapist since 2016. I trained as a marriage and family therapist with a focus in Art Therapy. I worked for pathways counseling which is part of Girls Inc. in Okaland, California for two years before returning to Boston. I worked as an in home therapists, for a group practice that specializedin trauma therapy with children and families before opening my own practice.
In 2022 I created my private practuce a home within which strives to support people feeling calmer and at peace within themselves. Within the therapeutic process with me, you may develop a sense of comfort and calm amidst your current emotional distress or challenge you are facing. You will work on processing experiences that caused you pain, break unhealthy habits to become a healthier, happier, more authentic self. You will learn how to feel uncomfortable and comfortable within yourself. You will learn to unconditionally love your whole self, including the wounded, hurt parts. You will break habits that cause you to feel stuck or are unhealthy. This process is about radical acceptance and love for yourself. Through your growth and healing, you will see your family start to heal.
I thrive on the complex cases that deserve more attention. When working with me you will be challenged, listened to and met with unconditional empathy and undonditional acceptance.
Within yourself, you already have all you need to process, heal and thrive.
