Counseling since 1987; (Masters, 1997). I understand on a deep level what it can be like to live with and overcome mental health challenges and to be impacted by and overcome an addiction; this experience enriches my empathy and informs my clinical practice and ability to connect and understand more fully with you. We are human beings, not a diagnosis.

As an Instructor at UMass Boston, I taught future drug and alcohol counselors. We are full of potential. Let's remove the barriers to your good health, happiness and success together!

I am a therapist who brings to counseling not only the expertise of helping families heal, transform and overcome, but also a solid understanding of life and the array of challenges that come with it. I have lived a full and interesting life in different cultures. I am blessed with curiosity and love for learning. I value each client I meet and I focus on understanding each person’s unique story and experience as well as their specific strengths prior to moving towards change.

I am glad you decided to engage in therapy. I offer a safe and supportive environment where you can openly express yourself without judgment. I utilize CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), MI (motivational interviewing, and CPT (cognitive processing therapy). I focus on your goals and progress in therapy.

Welcome! I’m Carly, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes therapy should feel like a real, non-judgmental conversation . I work with individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, and life transitions where I take a down-to-earth, collaborative approach. My style is warm, honest, and practical—my goal is for you to feel supported, understood, and actually helped. I want our work to feel like a space where you can breathe, grow, and feel more like yourself again.”

I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating a variety of mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism and OCD. Supporting young people and their families has always been at the heart of my work. I am committed to providing compassionate, collaborative, and culturally responsive mental health care. Having grown up and trained in Boston, I am proud to serve the community that is my home.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their circumstances. Whether addressing addiction, mood disorders, or other mental health challenges, I strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of my clients by offering comprehensive, integrative care. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to support you!

I believe our past can shape us, but it doesn’t have to define who we become. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts and New York with over 12 years of experience, I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and complex family dynamics. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I also believe therapy should be tailored to each individual—there’s no one-size-fits-all path to growth. Together, we’ll explore the patterns, thoughts, and experiences that may be holding you back and develop practical tools to help you move forward. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported as you build the life you want.

I have been working as a licensed clinical social worker for over 25 years. I meet each client where they are at. I have a non-judgmental, caring and empathetic approach when working with clients. I look forward to meeting and working with all those who want to change/understand their unique situations.
