Let's Connect (617) 915-2927

I am a Harvard-trained psychiatrist at McLean Hospital and a psychedelic-assisted therapist with training from the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute and the California Institute of Integral Studies. I draw from multiple traditions, including psychodynamic therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, internal family systems, psychedelic-assisted therapy, somatic experiencing, and eastern philosophy/spirituality. I specialize in the treatment of trauma and mood-spectrum disorders, practicing in a model that fosters self-inquiry and self-development through insight-oriented practices.

While we cannot control what has happened to us, we can understand how our lives have shaped who we are, building awareness of our conditioned patterns. In doing so, we can come to understand and accept who we are in the service of opening ourselves up to all life has to offer.

I am here to walk alongside you in your journey to help you discover where your path leads. I take a relational approach rooted in acceptance to create an environment that fosters openness and warmth, inviting you to show up as you are, where you are. Please reach out to set up a free phone consultation to learn more.
