Awareness is the first step towards making change. Do you find yourself facing the same repeated challenges? Are you noticing continued unhelpful patterns in your life? Are you looking to make personal and professional changes? I aim to help you garner a level of awareness and then become more deliberate about the words you choose, the thoughts you think, and the actions you take. Through these steps, we will engage in individual therapy that is collaborative, compassionate, and uniquely tailored to you. Depression and anxiety may have a grip on you, but together, we can put the reins of life back in your hands.

I optimally resonate with clients who are interested in self awareness and taking responsibility for the part that they play in life and relational challenges. They are committed to healing past traumas in order to be able to live as fully as possible in the present. The understanding that self transformation very naturally attracts qualitative experiences and relationships enables psychotherapy and connective couples work to be optimally beneficial.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I provide psychotherapy from an insight-oriented and relational approach, grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when people feel genuinely seen and supported. In my work, I aim to create a thoughtful and validating space where clients can reflect on their experiences, relationships, and patterns with curiosity and self-compassion. I earned my Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Boston College and I have worked with individuals across the lifespan, and with people from diverse racial, ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds.

Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or struggling with your relationship with food or your body.

I work with adults who feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, people-pleasing, relationship stress or life transitions and want practical tools to shift these behaviors. My approach is collaborative, practical and trauma-informed, helping clients respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions, strengthen relationships and build lives guided by their values. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years in the music industry, an experience that gave me unique insight into the pressures faced by musicians, artists and other creative professionals.

I believe that a person's ability to change or grow or adapt to difficult situations is present inside them. Depression, anxiety and poor coping strategies can get in the way. My job as your therapist is to help you build your self esteem and belief in yourself and increase your sense of optimism and control over your life. With new insights, your ability to take action will increase.

What you can expect from therapy with me: I will get to know you by listening deeply and asking questions, and that way we start a journey of exploration together. Each person decides on therapy for a different reason. If you experience anxiety, trauma or dissociation our work will be for you to begin to feel SAFE again. Trauma is a chronic disruption of a sense of safety and connectedness “The impact is not only mental, emotional, and neurological but also physiological. Trauma rewires the brain to put people in a constant state of stress or numbness, leading to a host of physical problems.” Bessel Van Der Kolk.

The world’s on fire and your attention is getting pulled in a thousand directions at once. It’s tough to believe that things could get better and that you won’t always just be hanging on for dear life. The present moment is just too overwhelming to actually be present, so you end up feeling anxious or despairing or numb - or all three off and on. These are normal responses to the abnormal circumstances we’re living through, but they take a toll on our lives, relationships, and passions, and they’re not the only way. People have built meaningful lives during all kinds of crisis and upheaval - and you can too.

I bring a warm and interactive style to my psychotherapeutic practice, which can best be described as "eclectic," as I believe that not one type of therapy is right for everyone. Pulling from psychodynamic (insight-oriented) psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness/meditation, and somatics (the integration of body/mind/spirit), I will tailor my practice to your individual needs depending on the particular issues you would like to address in therapy.

You might be here because something in your life feels harder than it should; anxiety has become more intrusive, an old pattern has resurfaced, or a transition is bringing up questions you didn't expect. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or simply aware that you can't sort through everything on your own. Therapy offers a space to reflect, understand yourself more fully, and begin to find some relief from what's been weighing on you.

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 utilize other paradigms too. While every therapy differs based on the patient and their goals, no therapy is effective without compassion, respect, and pragmatism, not to mention humor (sometimes life can only be laughed at). This is a perspective I lay out in a two-volume book, published by Routledge, "A Humane Vision of Clinical Psychology."
