LGBTQ+ Psychiatrists in Abington, MA
My philosophy is simple: listen first, treat second. I believe mental health care works best when you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take part in your own treatment decisions. I take the time to explain diagnoses, explore how medications work, and ensure you leave sessions feeling informed, not rushed.

You or your child may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or struggling with mood, focus, or stress that is affecting daily life, school, work, or relationships. You may be seeking clarity, relief, and a plan that feels supportive rather than rushed. Many individuals and families I work with want to better understand what’s going on and feel confident in their next steps.
Whether you are a parent supporting your child or an adult seeking balance, the goal is often the same: to feel more stable, empowered, and hopeful about the future.

I am a psychiatrist. I prescribe medication and conduct psychotherapy, and when I am doing either, I am drawing on the same underlying question: why are you the way you are?
I received my MD from Yale and completed my psychiatric residency at Harvard Medical School's Cambridge Health Alliance program. What has shaped me is the work itself- years of sitting with people in the parts of their lives they keep to themselves.
The anxiety that has not shifted, the relationship pattern that keeps recurring, the life that looks right but does not feel that way- these are some reasons people come to see me.

FAQ - LGBTQ+ Psychiatrists
What are the advantages of seeing an LGBTQ-friendly psychiatrist?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions using a combination of therapy and medication. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is essential for effective treatment. For many LGBTQ+ individuals, working with a psychiatrist who understands or shares aspects of their identity can be an important part of feeling safe, heard, and respected in care. Providers familiar with LGBTQ+ experiences may be better equipped to address minority stress, identity development, gender dysphoria, coming out processes, family rejection, discrimination, and other concerns that uniquely affect LGBTQ+ communities and can impact mental health treatment.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly psychiatrist?
Psychology Today’s online directory is a useful resource that allows you to filter for psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) based on their experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals. You can look for providers who identify as LGBTQ+ themselves or who mention LGBTQ+ affirming care in their profiles. Consider looking for key indicators such as use of inclusive language, experience with gender-affirming care, or a focus on trauma-informed and identity-centered approaches. It’s also important to consider practical details, such as whether the provider offers telehealth, their therapeutic style, and whether they accept your insurance.
