I always say that "therapists go in the field for a reason.... we usually just don't disclose it". I've had multiple complex reasons I became a therapist. After surviving and thriving from my own traumas. I wanted to be a therapist that people felt comfortable talking to. I take a humanistic and client- centered approach and pride myself on being genuine and authentic and having a sense of humor.
I have been in this field for 15 years. My area of specialty is working with Fire, Police, Corrections, Dispatch, EMS, and Veterans. I am trained in Critical Incident Stress Management and also volunteer and serve on the Central Massachusetts Critical Incident Stress Management Team as its Clinical Director. My goal is to get my clients back to their shifts and feel some relief. Trauma reactions are normal. It is a normal reaction to an abnormal event.
I grew up in a first responder and veteran world. I liked it so much that I married into the job. I have come to understand the culture of these jobs well, which is an important step into connecting with my clients.
I have an incredible assistant named Bella; a chocolate lab puppy who is in training to become a therapy dog for the practice. She also comes from a family of First Responder dogs! She currently going through all required training to become a certified therapy dog. She is always eager and excited to meet new people, and even offers a hug when needed.
I am currently working on my EMDR Certification and I completed all required basic training through the Humanitarian Assistance Program I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and 12 Step Programs.
When I am not at work I love spending time with my family, friends and dogs. I love to dance (all types, mainly ballet), music, art, reading and dog training.
I currently only see Adults 21+ and only do individual therapy.
