We are all doing the best we can. But sometimes we realize that ways that we have previously used to cope with pain are no longer serving us. I work with people of all backgrounds who are in the process of learning to not judge themselves for being in pain, and in finding that freedom they can focus on what they need to function as their authentic selves.

I believe therapy works through gaining greater self knowledge. We all have parts of ourselves that we don't recognize, don't understand or simply feel we cannot change. These ideas or feelings can lead to depression, anxiety, fear, and stress, as well as difficulties in romantic, family and social relationships, work life and creative expression. I provide a protected space to explore these complicated ways of being. Through skilled and empathic listening and thoughtful feedback, I can work with you to recognize what is causing the difficulties in your life, and to understand how you can grow into a more fulfilling way of living.

Therapy is a wonderful opportunity to gain a deeper sense of understanding and fulfillment in your life. By exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviors you will begin to develop more self-awareness and self-acceptance. We often find ourselves feeling stuck, unmotivated, anxious or depressed. Therapy provides an opportunity to gain insight, heal from past wounds and work towards your goals in a supportive and collaborative environment. Using a variety of treatment techniques including mindfulness, psychodynamic and evidence based practices, I work collaboratively with you to explore ways to achieve a happier and healthier life.

Currently, I am the founder of Lionheart Psychotherapy, a mental health practice that offers online therapy and hosts mental health events. An ideal client for Lionheart clinicians or myself can be coming from any life experience, as long as their needs and goals focus on self-understanding, self-compassion, and healing. Therapy can be challenging but it should also be a safe space to hold realizations, pain, growth, joy and release. An ideal client is willing to embrace this process.

People often seek therapy when feeling stuck: painfully alienated from what they desire, torn between conflicting impulses, and stuck with a version of themselves they find confusing and dissatisfying. Through careful listening and exploration, our work will help to illuminate how old wounds and ways of surviving have restricted your ability to feel, work, love, and even play freely. Moments of vulnerability in therapy can be opportunities to shut down, or they can be opportunities for introspection and transformation – I pay close attention to each patient’s needs, wishes, and fears to help steer you towards the latter outcome.

Curiosity and compassion are the foundation of my practice. I encourage clients to view therapy as a journey we embark on together with a goal of greater self-awareness and self-acceptance. If you're feeling stuck in some aspect of your life, feeling there must be something more, experiencing loss or life transition, coping with trauma or illness, I would be honored to provide support.

I specialize in treating adults with: Relationship & Couples Issues, Trauma and PTSD, and Mood & Generalized Anxiety Disorders, Our emotions and feelings take a toll when they go unaddressed, affecting our relationships, self-worth and general life satisfaction. So often, these emotional problems stem from our family-of-origin and intergenerational traumas & wounds. While we can feel that something is wrong, the path to healing, recovery and health can feel messy and out-of-reach. Our feelings are not a reflection of reality because we can experience freedom from the dysfunctional patterns in our lives.

For 10 years I’ve been part of the Harvard Medical School system, first as a trainee, now as faculty member. I'm trained primarily in psychodynamic therapy, but principles/interventions from other paradigms also inform my work. Ultimately, the nature of therapy depends on the patient and their goals. For this reason, the course of therapy is hard to describe, but it seems only to work amidst empathy, respect, and compassion, not to mention humor (sometimes life can only be laughed at). This is a perspective I lay out in some detail in a new two-volume book, published by Routledge, titled, "A Humane Vision of Clinical Psychology."

Engaging in personal exploration through therapy, though occasionally fraught with pain and difficulty, yields profound insights into our deepest fears and desires. By bringing our feelings, thoughts, and motivations into conscious awareness, we can begin to understand the self-defeating patterns that get in the way of our fulfillment in love, relationships, and work. As a psychologist, I primarily work with adults, including young adults navigating their identities and professionals balancing their work and personal lives. In addition, I specialize in treating individuals struggling with trauma and personality disorders.
