A bit about me
I am an experienced clinical therapist in Massachusetts, clinically educated in providing counseling and psychotherapy services to clients from all walks of life and across the lifespan.
My motto is "If it costs you your peace, it is too expensive".
I am a Certified Mental Health Practitioner who is fluent in Italian, English, and Igbo. I earned my Ph.D. in Sociology from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas – Angelicum in Rome, Italy, and my MSW from Simmons University's Graduate School of Social Work in Boston, MA.
I understand the importance of cultural awareness and sensitivity while working with people and developing treatment plans. My approach to clinical work is grounded in empathy and compassion, and I deliver it in an integrative, person-centered, and mindful manner.
