Eating Disorders Therapists in Cambridge, MA
Some of my specialties include anxiety disorders, body image issues, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and eating disorders, along with relationship and family issues.
Why does therapy work to change lives? The relationship with your therapist is key, and so is the therapist’s experience, skill, and training. I use the therapeutic methods most supported by research for my clients' issues, according to their preferences, in a warm, supportive environment. I have specialized training in exposure and response prevention (ERP), cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), “third-wave” psychotherapies such as the Unified Protocol (UP), and psychodynamic psychotherapy. Some clients opt for time-limited treatment (3-6 months) while others work with me long-term. I also offer intensive CBT (2-8 weeks) if possible.

I have training and experience working with many issues such as, depression, trauma, self-esteem, eating disorders and relationship concerns.
Seeking therapy is a sign of personal strength. Often people who engage in therapy are actually doing well in life, but would like to do better in one area or another. It takes awareness in our lives and courage to be able to reach out for help. I strive to put people at ease in building the therapeutic relationship. I also greatly value individual differences and approach each client with an open-minded and non-judgmental stance. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of a successful experience in therapy.

I help those struggling with anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, gender dysphoria, eating disorders, and/or trauma. I bring an integrative, strength-based approach using solution-focused therapy and CBT in order to help you manage the challenges you face. As a neurodivergent therapist, I know how hard it can be to live in a world where you do not always feel accepted. To feel like no one gets you or how your brain works. There can be a lot of shame associated with neurodivergence and I teach others how to focus on appreciating the unique wiring of their brain. I also help parents through these concerns.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults to resolve challenges related to anxiety, depression, eating disorders, relationships, and school/work adjustment.

My experience includes treating adolescents and adults who struggle with depression and anxiety, including OCD and eating disorders.
I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW REFERRALS AT THIS TIME.

Finding a therapist who is supportive, present, understanding, and skilled in guiding you towards a more satisfying and fulfilling life is a positive step in that direction. It's a journey that's well worth taking in partnership with a professional you trust. Email is the preferred initial way to contact me.

My experience as an elite athlete and specialized post-doctoral training in health psychology provide me with expertise in treatment of high level athletes, medical professionals, sleep disorders, and eating disorders (over and undereating).
Accepting new patients - Sometimes you make impulsive decisions because of worry or self-esteem. It is hard to concentrate and this is holding you back. You want to work with a goal-oriented nonjudgmental professional who will guide you to a place where you feel confident and in control. Mental health is more than low self-esteem. It impacts all areas of your life including focus, sleep, relationships, athletic performance, and even chronic pain or health conditions.

In my 40 plus years as a psychotherapist, I've heard many times: "I want to be happy, to feel peaceful inside myself, but I can't seem to get there" or "I feel badly telling my friends and family. I worry they get tired of listening to me." There are many reasons people feel stuck in their anxiety, depression, or relationship problems, and feel immobilized by them. Understanding what is causing problems can help you feel less stuck and immobilized, more at peace, and more self-confident.
