About me

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (MA LICSW #1142222 & RI LICSW #04871). I provide therapy in person in Providence, Rhode Island, as well as via a secure telehealth platform in affiliation with Integral Bloom throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts. I am a somatic therapist that focuses on supporting people in navigating their emotions, relationships and sexuality after trauma.

I found my passion for somatic therapy while studying for my BA in Psychology. During this time, I became a certified Kripalu Yoga Teacher and furthered my studies in Trauma-Sensitive Yoga through the Center for Trauma and Embodiment. I began teaching trauma-sensitive yoga in my community and was amazed by the body’s role in healing as both a resource for healing and the home for our beliefs, emotions, and feelings. This is when I chose to pursue my Master’s in Social Work. 

My clinical work has mainly been focused on supporting survivors of sexual assault, members of the queer community, and veterans in their healing process. I have provided services in multiple levels of care, including outpatient, rape crisis, Emergency Services, and inpatient settings. 

The four pillars of organicity, compassion, curiosity, and spaciousness support all of my work with others.

Organicity: The innate intelligence in every being

Compassion: Sympathetic awareness of self and others

Curiosity: A desire to know and understand

Spaciousness: The quality of having lots of space
