About
I know how important it is to feel truly seen and supported, and I'd be honored to walk with you as you work toward healing, growth, and greater peace of mind, body, and spirit.
I am a Mental Health Counselor seeking licensure with 1 year of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life transitions, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and relationship or parenting challenges. I specialize in strengths-based therapy to help enhance self-esteem, explore personal values, and promote emotional healing. My goal is to help clients recognize triggers, develop healthy coping skills, and improve overall functioning.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Tulane University. I use the Gottman Method, dialectical behavior therapy, and emotionally focused therapy to support emotional healing, improve communication, and foster meaningful connections.
I offer a warm, judgment-free space where clients feel seen, heard, and supported. I understand how overwhelming it can be to seek help and invite those facing personal or relationship challenges to take the first step toward growth, healing, and connection.

Yes, we offer comprehensive psychiatric services to meet your mental health needs.
Psychiatry allows people struggling to manage mental conditions or disorders to get access to medications that will make daily functioning easier, as well as work through any mental factors that might be causing or worsening their condition. Though medications can’t cure mental disorders, medication can make symptoms more manageable, making the process of psychotherapeutic treatment easier and more effective. Psychiatric care can be available through in-person psychiatry and online psychiatry, depending on where you live and your own preferences. However, psychiatric providers at Thriveworks in Framingham, MA specifically offer online psychiatry to their clients.
A therapist has an education specifically rooted in therapeutic practice, approaches, techniques, and treatment. They cannot prescribe medications for clients, though they often refer clients to psychiatrists for medication management. Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialize in mental health treatment, mainly through medication management and prescription, though they can also practice therapy.
A Psychiatry Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly trained and licensed professional who specializes in mental health care. They are qualified to diagnose and treat mental health conditions, prescribe medications, and provide therapy. Psychiatric NPs at Thriveworks are qualified to prescribe medications for a variety of mental health conditions. They work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan.
Oftentimes, psychiatrists or psychiatric professionals will perform a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which involves an in-depth discussion about your symptoms, medical history, and current medications. Once they reach a diagnosis, they may suggest starting certain medications depending on your condition and the intensity of your symptoms.
Yes. At Thriveworks, we offer online-only psychiatry services for optimal comfort and convenience.
Psychiatric services at Thriveworks Framingham can last for as little or as much time as the client needs to reach their treatment goals, whether that be a month or two or over the course of a year. Treatment length is heavily dependent on the condition(s) being treated, the course of treatment, and the client’s goals for treatment.
Psychiatrists are mental health professionals who can prescribe anxiety medication and provide therapeutic treatment for anxiety, although not all psychiatrists offer therapy. At Thriveworks, medication management occurs via online psychiatry sessions.
Yes, Thriveworks accepts most major insurance plans. We strive to make mental health care accessible and affordable for everyone.
