Relationships are where some of our most profound healing can happen. A good therapeutic relationship is based on establishing trust, safety, and a sense of curiosity on both our parts. Therapy is a space where we can understand the ways in which you may feel stuck, alone, worried, or hurt in any parts of your life. But it is also a space where I will encourage and reflect back to you your strengths and resilience, with the goal of moving you towards the growth you want to see.

Struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma ("big T or little t"), and difficult relationships, can be both wearing and demoralizing. I try to help people understand at an emotional level, not just an intellectual one. I have been called compassionate, warm and down-to-earth. I use mind-body, psychodynamic, somatic, cognitive, as well as practical approaches to a problem. I try to help a person grasp an issue or resolution in a way that resonates with them. It needs to make sense in both their head and gut, so they can start putting that understanding into real-life, practical solutions to their problems. Insight and practicality.

Is your teen or child afraid to make friends, try new things, or go to school? Are your child's ADHD symptoms causing them to feel stuck, stressed, or not "good enough"?

I have worked with many children, teens, young adults, and families who have experienced these same problems, and are surprised and relieved when they see how these challenges really can get better!

This form of therapy is effective for a wide range of mental health symptoms, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, panic and stress-related physical ailments.
I know that there are challenges in each person's life and I strongly believe that talking helps. I engage those that I work with by using dynamic psychotherapy. This is an ongoing process of talking, thinking and feeling. As these elements are shared, reconsidered, and reviewed over time a deeper understanding of the self emerges. This understanding leads to more choices in one's life. I respect the abilities that people bring to the challenges of life and their capacities to make changes. I treat the person not the diagnosis. Please text or call (617) 480-5155.

When you’ve been managing anxiety, depression, or mood swings, it can feel like life is just happening to you. Or that you’re treading water, unable to swim to shore. Managing a health issue, a challenging relationship or trauma is tough. So are major life changes like marriage, divorce, parenthood, loss, illness, or a career change. Navigating these emotions and experiences is difficult to do alone. And when you’re feeling vulnerable, it’s not easy to ask for help. When you receive support from an experienced professional who is committed to helping you, you can finally stop treading water, begin to heal, and get to shore.
