Our licensed therapists offer anxiety therapy services in Rhode Island

I’m a licensed therapist with 8 years of experience supporting teenagers, young adults, and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, and substance use. I’m passionate about helping people develop healthy, sustainable coping skills so they can feel more grounded and better equipped to handle life’s challenges. My approach is compassionate, strengths-based, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I integrate motivational interviewing and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to support meaningful, lasting change, while maintaining a humanistic lens that centers each person’s unique experiences and values.

I believe that clients are the experts in their own lives, and I work collaboratively to help them build on their strengths and move toward what matters most to them. I work with clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—whether that shows up as difficulty focusing, managing emotions, or breaking patterns that no longer serve them.

Together, we focus on increasing self-awareness, building practical coping strategies, and creating realistic, values-driven steps toward change. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and connected in their lives.
