I graduated from Bridgewater State University in 2015 with my B.S. in Psychology. A few years later, I decided to go back for my M.Ed in Mental Health Counseling & School Adjustment Counseling. Upon graduating in 2019, I began working as a School Adjustment Counselor at an elementary school in Brockton, where I spent the next four years running social skills groups, providing short-term counseling, and participating in IEP meetings. I loved working with the variety of diverse backgrounds and needs, but I wanted to continue growing and challenging myself with new experiences.

I decided to open Sea & Soul Counseling because of my love for working with kids/teens and my natural ability to connect with this population. I’ve had experience working with kids in different capacities, from being a teacher assistant, babysitting for multiple families in grad school, and working as a camp mental health clinician each summer. I also enjoy helping teens and young adults explore their passions, through identifying educational goals and career paths. My graduate work at BSU allowed me to discover how resourceful I could be in helping others discover careers that were compatible with their lifestyle and personality type.

In terms of my creative side, that’s been around since I was born! I found expressive techniques to be such a helpful outlet for myself growing up, and still use creativity in everything I do. I love how easily it applies to the age groups I work with, making for easy and authentic rapport with my clients.
