I started my own mental health journey as a kid when my parents sent me to therapy, originally resistant, I grew to love Donna’s little office. My interest in sex and sexuality education began in high school, when I launched a blog dedicated to open, honest conversations about sex and relationships. My work is deeply shaped by my lived experience, something no classroom can teach, and strengthened by my formal education and professional training.

I began working professionally in the mental health field in 2018, beginning with case management for clients experiencing crisis. When COVID uprooted the street-based work I was doing I knew it was time to return to school. During my master's program, at William James College, I completed the Couples and Families track giving me valuable education in navigating complex systems. At this time I gained experience in residential treatment settings with both adults and adolescents (age 12-22). In 2023, after obtaining my degree I joined a group therapy practice focused on reproductive and perinatal mental health. This position and the trainings offered helped me gain valuable insight into the experience of new parents when supporting couples and reintegrating intimacy into their lives. In 2025, I became an independently licensed therapist and launched Project Passion Therapy. As a seeker of knowledge I have, and will continue, to prioritize trainings and supervision to offer the best care I can.
