Therapists for Teens in Wellesley, MA
I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults around issues of grief and loss (death and non-death: divorce, relationship changes, life transitions, adoption, chronic illness) and anxiety. Through my many years working with bereaved children and their caregivers, I have learned that we all grieve our losses in our own way and in our own time. In an attempt to create a refuge from the cultural pressure “to move on,” I strive to offer a welcoming, nurturing, and safe space for you to grieve your loss, to find hope and connection, and to discover ways to heal and to grow.

As individuals or in the context of a relationship, we are always trying to make meaning of our lives, decide what is essential to us, and think about the path we are on. Of course, in life there are challenges along the way or worse which interfere. And then we are affected emotionally and can become disillusioned. Anyone can get lost for a time, and feel confused, upset or stuck. In our relationships, we experience conflict and communication struggles, and sometimes get locked into repeated and unwanted patterns. At times, we might ask: "Am I living the life I want; is there something more for me or for us? How do I/we change?

Everyone, at least once in their life, finds themselves struggling with life events that feel insurmountable or with emotions that feel outside of their control. I believe that therapy can help with that and bring out your own resilience and capacity to learn. My guiding principle is to provide an open and accepting environment where people can explore their personal experiences and reinforce their well-being.

I specialize in treating behavioral and substance addictions and compulsions and transitional challenges like parenthood, camp, college or graduate school that affect adolescents, adults and families.
Change is hard. People often seek psychotherapy around change. They want to change. People in their life want them to change. Or some life change is affecting them in a meaningful way. Often, it's a combination. By working together I can help you in this challenge. I frequently work with adolescents and adults struggling with addiction in themselves or in their families. Many of my patients are addressing anxiety, depression, questions or challenges regarding their sexual orientation, infertility, life transitions, traumatic experiences or eating disorders and other compulsive behaviors. A lot of my patients are college or graduate students.

I work with children, adolescents, and young adults who present various problems and concerns, such as depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and self-harm. I believe in the power of early interventions to help children and teens develop healthy boundaries and coping skills and have healthier and happier relationships with themselves and others.

I believe in the power of early interventions to help children and teens develop healthy boundaries and coping skills and have healthier and happier relationships with themselves and others.
In my current practice, I work with adolescents (16+) and young adults who are struggling academically, or who are taking a leave of absence from college or grad school due to mental health concerns.
As a therapist, I strive to bring warmth and wits into sessions with my patients. My role is to help people identify patterns that are causing trouble or distress. This process involves not only trying to understand the "root" of the problem, but also looking for ways in which individuals might get stuck in problematic ways of relating to others or thinking about themselves. This can be hard work, but it has the potential to be very rewarding. In my experience, people who engage in therapy often find that old patterns can change, and new choices are able to emerge in their lives.
