I work with adults dealing with a range of issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and trauma. Through the development of a trusting relationship and exploration I believe we can work through most challenges in your personal and/or work life. As a psychoanalyst and social worker with over 30 years of experience, I am deeply committed to this work. In addition to having a private practice in Concord, MA I am currently Co-Director, Supervisor and Faculty for The PINE Center Clinical Fellowship.

**Unfortunately I am currently at capacity and am unable to accept new client referrals.** Each of us come to junctures in our lives that make us question our ability or our will to push forward. Often we struggle to find others we feel can help us along our way, who we trust to hold and respect our pain. Seeking support in therapy can be the first step to re-gaining a sense of control, a value of one's own self-worth, and a hope in the possibility of change. I am a person-centered clinical social worker who values the honesty, exploration, reflection, challenge, balance, and care that a therapeutic relationship can provide.

I provide highly personalized services to children, adolescents and adults with complex mental health needs in a fee-for-service model. Clients who resonate with my approach are looking for someone to be thorough, flexible and results-oriented. For minors, parents looking to be involved in their child's care tend to benefit most from what I provide. I bring clarity and action to complex diagnostic questions, family dynamics and significant behavioral concerns.

Life is complicated - and it can feel overwhelming and stressful at times. We each have our own unique strengths and vulnerabilities. In my over 30 years as a psychotherapist, I have greatly enjoyed helping adults and adolescents build on their strengths, manage their vulnerabilities and make their lives feel less difficult, more satisfying and more meaningful. Psychotherapy can help with feelings of sadness, anxiety, disconnection and self-doubt. Having a place where you feel listened to and understood leads to greater self-awareness, more fulfilling relationships and a more connected and satisfying life.

With over 20 years experience, I have successfully helped others with issues of anxiety, depression, trauma, low self worth/esteem and relationship struggles. While providing a safe atmosphere where one feels comfortable talking about themselves, I help you to figure out what the issues are and how to best deal with them.. It's my experience that change occurs when one is feeling both supported and challenged. I try to provide both. Please feel free to contact me and we can talk about how I can be helpful.

IN-PERSON sessions offered in my Burlington, MA office. My approach is relational and in the here-and-now. My style is warm, engaging, and focused on assisting my clients in getting through, and learning from, the difficulties of depression, anxiety, communication issues, and life transitions, to name a few. I have been told that I am "direct and to-the-point", focusing on specific solutions. Most of my clients are surprised at how quickly they feel better. It is my goal to be able to work with you to move more quickly towards your goals as well as help you to feel "comfortable in your skin" and more contented with your life.

I think it is extremely courageous to admit we need help. I believe one of the most important criteria for successful treatment is to have a trusting, open, "therapeutic rapport" with a client. Without trust and a good connection, the therapeutic process cannot begin. With that in mind, I believe the first step is creating an environment safe from judgement and rich in support. My focus is to enable clients to acquire insight, skills, and motivation for emotional, cognitive, and behavioral transitions.I specialize in older adolescent and adult individual therapy as well as family and couples counseling.

I am fully certified in two evidence based therapies1) EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and 2) IFS or Internal Family Systems Therapy. In a very SAFE manner, they can be VERY effective. I emphasize the word SAFE because NOTHING is ever discussed unless YOU are comfortable discussing it. You're "the boss" as to what we cover/discuss in therapy.

If you have not been feeling like yourself or that your mind has been elsewhere Let’s talk. Everyone needs a judgment free space where they can express themselves freely and discuss struggles and the things that are most important to them. Whether you are dealing with overwhelming feelings of worry, daily stress, a transition in life or intrusive memories from long ago you deserve to have support.

Is purity culture or religious messaging preventing you from dating, sex, and healthy relationships? Have you rejected old religious beliefs but feel "stuck" making your new beliefs a reality? I help millennials like you by using a holistic approach to therapy. I combine CBT, IFS therapy, mindfulness, and somatic practices like nervous system regulation to heal at the root of your issues; cultivate self compassion; create new, healthy relationships; and step into your sexual liberation era. I also offer CPT Intensives for those who want to heal NOW and don't want to spend months or even years in the traditional therapy model.

Engaging in therapeutic modalities informed by psychodynamic, relational, and attachment-based frameworks, I believe profound changes occur in the context of relationships. I also incorporate strength-based approaches, person-centered therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, motivational interviewing (MI), and Relational Cultural Therapy (RCT) in my clinical practice. Deeply committed to providing culturally informed care, I am dedicated to recognizing the complexity and richness of each client’s cultural identity.

Therapy is an opportunity to make meaning of our experiences and achieve agency in the here and now. My goal is to partner and collaborate with my clients in that process. I am deeply interested in how we tell the stories of our lives and use those stories to cope, make sense of reality, and understand ourselves. Grounded in trauma-informed psychodynamic and relational practice, I draw from cognitive behavioral, narrative, and mindfulness therapies, with a particular belief in the importance of the therapeutic relationship.

Accepting new clients ...Beginning to build a strong rapport begins w/ our initial conversation, allowing for open dialogue. I aim to be as authentic, supportive, and direct as possible; helping you, you and your partner, children, and/or parents, to work on the obstacles standing in the way of reaching your goals. Sometimes this means experiencing an accepting and validating environment or an opportunity to feel safe communicating with your family. My approach depends on your goals for our work together and what degree of challenge you feel ready for. Conflict or connection, I am here to support you.

As humans, we are wired for connection. When we feel connected to our loved ones, not only do we feel closer to them, we do better in the rest of our lives. So, of course, when we have difficulty connecting with the people we are closest to, it is painful and distressing. We can get into cycles where the arguments sound and feel the same regardless of what they are about. And these cycles are hard to break on our own.

Do you tell yourself "Something's wrong with me"? On the outside your life looks good - no one would know you feel this way - but on the inside you cope with conflicting feelings and thoughts that leave you anxious, depressed and undecided. Do you feel very alone – despite your apparent success? Maybe the crux of the matter is an important relationship; no matter how you try, you still feel so alone and invisible. Maybe you feel the problem must be you, "I'm the common denominator" and your efforts to improve yourself haven't helped. If you recognize yourself in this description, reach out to me. I can help.
