When stress feels all-consuming, it does more than just exhaust you—it disconnects you from your sense of calm and capability. I provide a secure, remote environment where we move beyond simply managing symptoms to untangling the underlying triggers of your stress.
Together, we will develop practical tools and resilient strategies designed to help you navigate life’s demands without losing yourself in the process. My goal is to empower you to reclaim your focus and move through your day with a sustainable sense of well-being and genuine ease.

The Becoming Therapy Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LMFT
Chronic stress in women is often normalized, even celebrated as a sign of dedication. But your body and mind keep score, and over time, stress left unaddressed becomes burnout, physical symptoms, and emotional depletion. We help women identify what's driving their stress, set realistic limits, and build rhythms that are actually sustainable. You shouldn't have to run on fumes to be considered a good mother, partner, or professional.
14 Years Experience
Online in Boston, MA Massachusetts (Online Only)
Boston's extraordinary concentration of universities — including Harvard, MIT, Boston University, and Northeastern — generates strong demand for therapists specializing in academic pressure, young adult transitions, and anxiety. The city is home to world-class mental health institutions including McLean Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital, and many private therapists work in close collaboration with these systems. Boston's large student and young professional population drives high demand for therapists focusing on identity, relationships, and adjustment to major life changes. The city also has a significant immigrant population from Cape Verde, China, Vietnam, and Latin America, with bilingual and culturally informed therapists well represented.
