I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a passion for empowering women to feel confident in achieving their goals and navigating life’s challenges. I earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Boston College and have worked in hospital settings, community mental health and outpatient centers. My clinical experience includes supporting individuals with interpersonal struggles, personality disorders, substance use, suicidal thoughts and self-harm.
I started Venus House to create a supportive space where women and non-binary individuals can connect, embrace their individuality, and step into their power.
In a world where it can feel like there is no place to belong, Venus House offers community, support & creativity. We’d love to have you!
