We all reach moments in our lives when coping on our own is not sufficient. Therapy can be uniquely helpful when struggling with aspects of self care, relationships and/or negotiating external circumstances including with our political world. A confidential space dedicated to untangling your emotions and the origins of persistent struggles can be life changing. I specialize in grief, trauma, depression and anxiety, dysfunctional family systems as well as issues related to immigration, assimilation and oppression. I also work with couples stuck in patterns and communication blocks.
My clients tell me that they value my approach because it is direct, warm, exploratory and insightful. I am realistic about the time it takes to establish trust in a therapy relationship. I value working with all people including diverse ethnic, socioeconomic and gender populations.
I have been working in private practice, college counseling and community mental health settings for 17 + years. I served as clinical director at the Boston Institute for Psychotherapy (BIP) for 7 years. I have experience supervising psychology and social work trainees and staff in each of these settings.
