In therapy, I strive to move you towards a valued, meaningful life while decreasing suffering. I use a flexible blend of evidence-based treatments tailored to your personal needs, incorporating aspects of CBT, Mindfulness, and exposure therapy. I bring an open and nonjudgmental stance to sessions, and am both compassionate and direct in my approach. I am a clinical psychologist at Massachusetts General Hospital, where I serve as Clinical Director of Brain Health Services at Home Base, and an Instructor in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
I have extensive expertise treating those who have experienced traumatic and stressful life events, depression, and anxiety. I can help in navigating life transitions and adjustments, relationship and self-esteem concerns. I believe therapy is an active process, and I assign regular homework to generalize skills gained during sessions.
Don't hesitate to reach out if you are curious about what I may offer! I use evidence-based treatments (CBT, ACT, DBT, Unified Protocol; trauma-focused treatments such as PE, CPT; and CBTi) in my practice. We will work together in identifying collaborative treatment goals, processing challenges of life, and guiding you towards a life worth living.
