I am an LICSW with 15 years’ experience supporting children and their parents and caregivers with an attachment focused, trauma-responsive lens. I help individuals strengthen their sense of well-being within themselves and a sense of safety and connectedness in their relationships. I have worked extensively to improve care and outcomes for youth and families who have been impacted by trauma, including as a therapist, supervisor and by supporting and directing National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN) projects. I was most recently the Program Director for Lifeline for Kids and its Resilience Through Relationships Initiative at the University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School, focused on improving knowledge of trauma-informed care to strengthen parent-child relationships.
