Family Therapy in Medford, MA

I specialize in issues including trauma, depression, anxiety, life-transitions, and relationship issues. I provide therapy to adults, young adults, and students through a personalized approach for each client. I believe that developing a non-judgmental and client-centered approach to therapy is key to feeling better each day.

Ambivalence about change is universal to us all. It is challenging to question the parts of ourselves that are no longer serving us, and invite space for something novel. In therapy with me, we will reflect upon the aspects of your life that are working for you, and places where you feel stagnant, dissatisfied, or empty. Even the parts of yourself that feel the most frustrating, perplexing, or harmful have arisen in attempts to help you. Together, we will explore all of these parts with openness, curiosity and wonder. I work with individuals who are interested in this exploratory approach to themselves and their relationships.

Effective therapy starts with the relationship between the therapist and the client. My goal is to foster an empathetic and trustworthy relationship so you can explore what is it that your struggling with in a non-judgmental place.

This can lead to behaviors that aren't congruent with the goals we have in mind for ourselves. I want to help you coordinate your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to ultimately get you to a place of happiness.
