Everyone can benefit from better self-understanding. Sometimes our anxiety, depression, and internal conflicts can affect our relationships with others and the world in which we live. By creating a safe environment for expressing thoughts and feelings, I am able to help those who enter into a therapeutic alliance with me improve general satisfaction in interpersonal relationships and life.
I am trained in talk therapy and psychoanalytic counseling, which focuses on resolving deeper issues, in order to improve and alleviate symptoms, improve interpersonal relationships, and gain better self-understanding. I also teach individuals CBT and DBT skills designed to rapidly alleviate unwanted symptoms that cause discomfort when they begin therapy.
I have extensive experience working in various therapeutic environments with clients of all ages and diagnoses. This experience includes working as an outpatient therapist and licensed mental health counselor, individual case management and group therapy in an acute psychiatric hospital, and working with children and families in a Boston area public school.
