Trained as a Clinical Psychologist in Sydney, Australia, I have over 26 years of experience in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and now work as a Mental Health Counselor in Boston. My primary goal is to create a safe therapeutic space that promotes growth by helping you alleviate your presenting issues and reach an understanding of how to resolve the complexities of emotional distress. Together we embark on finding meaning of why you might be struggling, identify unhelpful ways of thinking and how this interferes with your ability to work or study, its impact on your relationships and coping capacity with day-to-day challenges.

Seeking mental health care can be difficult and daunting for some individuals, as well as finding the right therapist. My initial goal when meeting with new clients is to create a comfortable environment to get to know you better. My focus throughout therapy is to facilitate positive change, identify patterns that get in your way, and help you build a life worth living. Part of that process invites you to acknowledge your inner strengths and autonomy, while challenging yourself in new ways, even if it's hard. I truly love this work and feel extremely fortunate to be able to do it.

We are born inherently intact, hard wired to experience life fully in all its beauty. By no fault of our own, life often leads us astray from our true nature, and we are left depressed, anxious, traumatized: hurting. By choosing to enter a therapeutic relationship with a caring other, I strongly believe that we can reconnect with that core energy and vitality. Therapy can be the vehicle to healing the mind, connecting with our core spirit, and achieving the personal growth and fulfillment that we all seek as humans. I would be honored to be that caring other and accompany you on your journey of healing and fulfillment.

Living with anxiety can feel overwhelming and exhausting. You might experience persistent worry, fear, or unease that seems to overshadow every aspect of your life. It can feel like an unending cycle of racing thoughts, restlessness, and physical symptoms - a racing heart, tension, or difficulty sleeping. Seeking therapy can be a crucial step in finding relief and managing these emotions. I specialize in anxiety, insomnia, OCD, traumatic stress (PTSD), adult/teen ADHD and the related stress, irritability, depression and relationship problems that can interfere with happiness and success.

I have over 10 years of therapy experience helping clients with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, conflicts around cultural identity, life transitions, and academic and career struggles. I work pragmatically and collaboratively with clients while providing a warm, welcoming, culturally-sensitive, and interactive psychotherapy space. In a collaborative manner, we explore patterns of thinking, feeling, relating, and behavior that contribute to unfulfilling relationships and struggles at home, school, or work. We work together toward making emotional and behavioral shifts that lead to increased purpose and fulfillment.

Whether it be social or emotional struggles, challenging behaviors, trouble relating to others in positive ways, or working through fears, depression, stress, trauma, or a family crisis, I meet every child and their family where they are at.

Helping your teen to feel comfortable and seen is my priority. I believe that true growth cannot happen outside of a warm, safe relationship. There is so much happening developmentally for teens and having a judgement-free space to slow down, unpack thoughts/feelings and gain clarity/awareness can lead to immense empowerment and growth for young people.
