I am a warm, engaging, interactive therapist. People tend to suffer alone with Depression, Anxiety, Relationship Distress, Eating Disorders, Grief over loss & Life Transition Complexities. We are all met with obstacles, unexpected curve-balls and difficult life challenges. Navigating necessary changes in family dynamics can be especially complicated for young adults as they separate and create space to develop and decide for themselves what their independent adult life will look like.

Welcome! I'm a board certified psychiatrist at Harvard medical school and McLean. In my confidential private practice, I help high-achieving individuals that excel in their careers and personal endeavors—who behind the scenes, are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or feelings of emptiness. If this sounds familiar, know that you’re not alone. It can be difficult to acknowledge your distress, especially when others see you as "having it all together."

All of us have moments when we struggle in our relationships. Sometimes we can manage on our own and other times these difficulties point to larger issues and concerns. Juggling the demands of two careers and modern family life can leave us feeling frazzled. We often feel pressured to stretch ourselves beyond our capacities and long for some respite. It is in these more difficult times together that we tend to seek out a deeper understanding of ourselves and new approaches to dealing with both new and longstanding worries.

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.

Online Therapists
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
