Welcome! I am a clinical psychologist with a private practice in Newton, MA. My practice draws from evidence-based treatments (primarily CBT) for eating disorders, anxiety disorders, OCD, and depression. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a collaborative approach that involves working toward specific treatment goals and developing skills to improve current symptoms as well as to address longer-term goals. I also provide Family-Based Treatment (FBT) for adolescents and young adults with eating disorders.
Throughout my career, I have been interested in the comorbidity (co-occurrence) of psychological symptoms. For example, people often experience both eating disorders and anxiety. We will focus on common factors that underlie many symptoms while developing an individualized treatment plan that best meets your specific concerns and treatment goals.
In addition to my practice, I currently have appointments as Clinical Teaching Faculty in the Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program (EDCRP) at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and as part-time Lecturer on Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
