Working with kids is what puts a smile on my face! I have an MSW from Boston College and have experience with kids from 1-18 years old. I've been a camp counselor, an after school counselor, and taught SEL to kids in a school setting. Currently I am a Crisis Stabilization Clinician so nothing phases me! I bring compassion, enthusiasm, and patience to the work. I'm a big believer in fostering engagement through creative play by getting kids involved in games and activities. I have over 30 hours of training's on topics such as Therapeutic Crisis Intervention, Resolving Conflict/Anger Management, and Positive Discipline. Those trainings paired with my social work education heavily influence the way I work with kids by empowering them to feel competent, from little tasks to solving problems. I often bring my guitar or ukulele in to work with kids, and am always willing to teach! I enjoy nature, practicing mindfulness, art, reading, and playing sports.
