ABOUT ME

I am originally from Connecticut and spent some years living around the country - in Vermont, North Carolina, and Oregon - before moving to Brooklyn, New York in 2013. After earning my Masters in Social Work from Hunter College, I spent three years working as a college counselor and studying to become a birth doula. My wife and I finally moved from Brooklyn to Providence, Rhode Island in March of 2017, at which point I began my current work as a psychotherapist and a postpartum doula, practicing in both Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We currently live in the West End of Providence with our four young children, our dog and three cats. When I’m not with my clients, I’m usually wrangling my four kids and trying to get them out of the house as much as possible. I also love to write, read, explore the outdoors, and see live music.

 
 
 

EXPERIENCE

I received my B.A. from the University of Vermont in 2008 and a Masters in Social Work from CUNY Hunter College in 2013. I focused my MSW on Community Organizing, Planning and Development and continue to apply a macro level lens to all the individual clinical work that I practice today. I have been in private practice since 2019.

As a psychotherapist, I specialize in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders. In addition to earning my Masters in Social Work, I have trained with the Seleni Institute and Postpartum Support International to earn a Perinatal Mental Health Certification. I have also trained with CAPPA as a postpartum doula.
