I am Harvard-trained and board-certified in both adult, and child and adolescent psychiatry.
Most people at some point in their lives find themselves feeling stuck, unable to break out of old patterns or achieve their goals. Many of the individuals I work with are outwardly functioning well in many areas of their lives, but struggling with depression, anxiety, or navigating life transitions. Talk therapy can be a powerful tool to help people move past these roadblocks and build a more meaningful and full life.

Accepting clients in MA! Are you feeling lost, questioning if what you're going through is normal? Do you find yourself struggling with forgetfulness, battling to focus, or easily losing track of your thoughts? Perhaps each morning feels like an uphill climb, lacking the motivation to engage in life, and sometimes tears well up for no apparent reason. The nights become an endless struggle, with sleep eluding you or leaving you restless and drained the next day. Have you endured a traumatic experience that has left you feeling trapped in anxiety and unease? You don't have to carry these burdens alone, not anymore.

If you need help to gain or regain a good enough balance and a way to find happiness in your life, I have decades of valuable experience. I am known as a "psychiatrist's psychiatrist," a true healer, and one who is gifted at working with "challenging" situations" -- both individual and couples. Therapy is my specialty, and I evaluate and prescribe medication only for patients I treat in therapy when it is truly indicated. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who are more interested in developing their own capacities than in complaining about the inadequacy of what they find outside themselves in the world and in other people. I do not provide "medication management" if that is a primary reason for consultation.

Teen Psychiatrists
Adolescence describes the teenage years between 13 and 19 and can be considered the transitional stage from childhood to adulthood. However the physical and psychological changes that occur in adolescence can start earlier, and it can be a time of both disorientation and discovery. The transitional period can bring up issues of independence and self-identity. Sometimes teens may be experimenting with drugs and alcohol or sexuality. During this time, peer groups and external appearance tend to increase in importance.

For help with adolescents or for a Waltham adolescent psychiatrist these professionals provide help for adolescent development and adolescent education. They include adolescent psychiatrists in Waltham, adolescent psychologists, and adolescent counselors. They can help with adolescent behavior, adolescent learning and adolescent discipline.

Waltham teen Psychiatrists also provide help for troubled teens in Waltham or troubled teen boys and girls. For parents of out-of-control teens, Waltham psychiatrists can help with communicating and understanding your teen. And psychiatrists in Waltham can help with teenager behavior and teen learning issues.
