Anxiety Therapists in Boston, MA
My sessions work to connect a person's sense of meaning in life to help them overcome anxiety, depression and a loss of personal identity in this complex world.
I believe that we all need to have a sense of purpose or meaningfulness in our lives, something that our thoughts, emotions and life experiences contribute to the "heart" of our personalities. The process of healing from the challenges of life begins with a search for truth about our beliefs, habits and relationships. Physical health is affected by our mental health through the complex interactions between the brain and bodily functions.

I’m a firm believer that you don’t need to wait until things get really bad to start therapy. If you're a college/graduate student, young adult, or professional hoping to work through complex trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, or identity development, you're not alone! I approach therapy with a trauma-informed lens grounded in multicultural feminism that positions you as the expert of your experience.

I very much enjoy working collaboratively with individuals through life transitions and milestones; managing high levels of daily stress; mood related difficulties such as anxiety and depression; relationship issues; gender and sexuality development; as well as processing traumatic events.
Throughout life, we all face challenges and stressors that can be too difficult to resolve alone. Oftentimes, the viewpoint of a nonjudgmental third person can provide exceptionally useful new perspectives and insights. Working together, I help my clients discover their values, learn new ways of managing distress, and live their optimal life.

I have worked extensively with managing anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief/loss, couples counseling, bi-polar disorder, personality disorders, schizoid disorders, and much more.
Currently taking new patients! Developing a deeper understanding of why we do the things we do is an integral part of becoming the person we desire to be. Therapy can be an important tool for self discovery and recognizing our problematic patterns. I believe that therapy should meet the individual where they are and the unique set of circumstances that they exist in. I utilize a client-centered therapeutic model and have a specialization in trauma. In addition, I have expertise in addiction, CBT, existential therapy, object relations, and navigating psychiatry systems (having run a clinic myself).

I have 15+ years of experience with and specialize in anxiety, stress and burnout, grief and loss, relationship issues, and life transitions both big and small.
You have been juggling it all: work, relationships, family, life. Yet, in the middle of the night, you find yourself wide awake with worry, your mind racing wondering how you will get through the next day. Maybe you feel stuck and overwhelmed at this point in your life and believe you “should” feel happy and grateful but can’t figure out what is at the root of your unhappiness. Perhaps an inner critic has you questioning yourself, and you're ready to see yourself in a kinder, more accepting way. You might be here because a significant event like losing a loved one, divorce, or medical diagnosis has you feeling lost and alone.
