About Us
Granite Brook Farm Inc. nurtures healing and community through the gentle connection of nature and animals.
The Problem
In our rapidly evolving world, many people experience heightened stress, anxiety, and a sense of disconnection from both nature and their communities. Traditional therapeutic approaches often fall short in delivering the support and connection that individuals truly need. Furthermore, the urgency to find balance, reconnect with the earth, and rediscover oneself exacerbates challenges related to mental health and chronic illness.

Our mission encompasses the holistic engagement of individuals with nature and animals, allowing them to explore their potential while embracing our foundational values.
The Solution

Our therapeutic programs are designed to improve mental health, foster emotional connections, and educate the community about sustainable practices. By engaging with our mini horses, chickens and goats, customers/clients can experience stress relief and personal growth in a safe, nurturing environment.

No matter where you are in your life, I am dedicated to providing unconditional support, a reliable ear to listen, and guidance to help you become the best version of yourself. Together, we will work to understand and discover the best ways to handle whatever you are experiencing. I have traveled and lived in many states, but my heart always brings me back to the four seasons in Rhode Island. I would describe myself as compassionate, fun, real, and dedicated. I enjoy being a therapist because I have the privilege of impacting and empowering individuals in a way that could change the trajectory of their lives.
I focus on chronic illnesses such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, cancer, and more. Whether you are new to therapy or re-entering the process, it is important to find a clinical professional who is supportive, safe, and non-judgmental. I can assist you as you navigate your path and guide you to a healthier place, both inside and out.
Today, many people face nearly impossible work schedules, inadequate health coverage, employment relocations, disabilities, and economic challenges. I believe we must address these challenges head-on to help as many individuals as possible in the most affordable way.
