I am a Licensed Psychologist in the state of Massachusetts with over 30 years of experience specializing in clinical child and adolescent psychology.
If you're struggling to understand your child's difficulties, I would be happy to perform an evaluation and consult with you. I have extensive experience evaluating children and adolescents. I focus on a holistic assessment that could include psychological, cognitive, neuropsychological, or educational assessment and testing. I provided a developmental-based diagnosis with a set of recommendations to improve your child's function based on the data collected during the evaluation. At this time, I am only available for assessment cases or consultation with parents, I do not have room for individual therapy clients.

Mental health is a big deal. For injuries or illness, like a broken bone or the flu, we don’t think twice about visiting our doctor for treatment. But often times, mental well-being gets pushed aside, saying “It’s not a big deal” or “I can handle this myself.” If it is bothering you, then it is a big deal. I can offer you an honest approach to changing your ways of thinking and behaviors to help you conquer and cope with important issues such as anxiety, depression, family problems, child and adolescent behavioral issues, and many more to help you feel whole again, to find your calm again, and to help build your confidence again.

Deciding to seek out therapy can be difficult and making a connection with the right person even more so. Knowing something about the person you are hoping can help you can make the start of the process easier. I began working in the field at 16 for an afterschool program at an outside placement school, things progressed from there. From then to now I completed a BS in Business and an MEd in Counseling & School Adjustment, I obtained an LCMHC in NH and LMHC in MA. I have worked with individuals, couples and families in many settings including schools, residential programs, detention settings, office settings and in the community.

Finding the right ‘person’ for yourself or a loved one can be beyond challenging. You want to know that that person will be truly engaged in what you have to say, won’t judge you by your thoughts or behaviors, and care enough about you to offer compassion and guidance through your toughest days. I’m familiar with this search, and I believe that I could be the person you need right now as you begin the work to your higher self. One of the first things I tell all of my clients is that they have to feel a connection with their therapist. You have to feel safe, supported and most importantly, respected.

As humans we need to communicate, to interact, to be heard, and to feel understood. I believe therapy can be a very productive and cathartic outlet to help sift through everyday difficulties and unexpected or even devastating challenges that occur in our lives. Therapy can help encourage you to gain understanding and build growth leading you to find and accept your best self.

Private pay, superbills available. I offer EMDR weekly or Intensive sessions for the treatment of trauma symptoms. Unprocessed traumatic memories can become stuck in the body, leading to distress and dysregulation in many forms: panic, anxiety, depression, irritability, flash anger, numbness, loss of connection with others. Neurological research show that the rhythmic horizontal eye movements used in EMDR reduce the activity in the brain's fear circuits, allowing allowing our brain and our nervous system to do the healing work they are capable of. Wondering if this is for you or if your story "counts" as trauma? Let's connect.

I have been working as a psychotherapist for over 25 years. My goal is to help clients gain the insight and tools necessary to reach their fullest potential. The journey is different for each of us, so I use a variety of approaches in the therapeutic process. My hope is that through self exploration, clients will learn to develop healthier patterns of communication, maintain healthier boundaries, improve self care, and develop/utilize healthier coping skills. I'm in the office Tuesday through Thursday, with limited availability at this time. I do not currently have any late afternoon or evening openings.

Teen Therapists

What does therapy for teenagers look like?

When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?

There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?

You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
