Are you experiencing a personal problem that feels insurmountable, has derailed you from your path, or has become so distracting that you can't ignore it any longer? Do you have ongoing health concerns, relationship conflict, recent loss, family stress or mental health issues? I can help you identify challenges, increase personal initiative, try new things, build confidence, make constructive decisions, utilize available services, manage problems proactively, and develop success strategies. I specialize in working with individuals and couples who need a higher level of support and resources to cope, change, and thrive.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults who have often had unsuccessful prior treatment experiences. They feel that my knowledge and holistic approach to treatment will provide them with a healthier pathway forward in their life. Although I have a depth of experience to share with my patients I value learning from them on a daily basis. To facilitate change I employ a range of focused DBT and CBT strategies that I also teach to younger clinicians who train with my practice. I have maintained a professional home for 30 years at Harvard Medical School where I serve as a Part-Time Lecturer in the Department of Psychiatry.

For the past 10+ years I have been in private practice serving kids, adolescents, and adults. I provide neuropsychological and psychodiagnostic assessment and consultation as well as individual and group therapy using a strengths-based approach. Much of my practice focuses on helping Middle School and High School students who are struggling with learning, social, and emotional adjustment through collaboratively identifying the obstacles and challenges they may be facing and helping them to recognize and embrace their qualities and strengths. Evaluation also involves working closely with parents and helping to identify the most appropriate schools, supports, and home strategies.

Are you a high achiever but under value yourself? Work hard and have objective success but feel something is missing, or that it's still not enough? Do you feel aspects of your life need improvement, direction, guidance, change, or growth? Is the old tried and true approach you take, not working anymore? Come improve your mood, reduce anxiety, strengthen self-esteem, manage stress, work through academic/social/professional challenges, process grief, improve relationships and communication, strengthen parenting techniques, and have smoother life transitions. Therapy's success is equal to the work you put into it, come do the work!

Do you feel stuck and overwhelmed despite being a highly self-aware and an intuitive person? Are you exhausted by anxiety, panic, and nonstop worrying? Have you tried talk therapy before and it was okay but it didn't really create the transformation or deep healing and relief from anxiety you are looking for? I LOVE working with Millennial women, like you, and using a holistic mind, body, soul approach. I will teach you the empath skills you need to get your anxiety under control, stop taking on other people's emotions, and finally set healthy boundaries so you can start living a life of freedom and joy.

For years (decades!) I have been treating substance abuse, trauma, anxiety, stress, depression, and other disorders in adolescents and adults at my office in Newton. Helping people move from crisis to long-term healthy living is my passion. I offer individual therapy, group therapy, and families/couples therapy depending upon the need. My general approach is that life is good. It is not always easy, but it is always good. Regardless of the suffering we have faced - and some have faced a lot - or the difficulty of our current circumstances, people can learn to survive and thrive. Helping patients get to that place brings me joy.
