Are you struggling to cope with a variety of life's problems including challenges at home, school, relationships, family and work? Have these struggles brought around depression, anxiety, stress, anger, or trauma? Are you looking for more happiness, peace, contentment, and strength? I specialize in the treatment of adolescents and young adults working to change their relationships to problems by developing tools to make lasting change.

Over the years as a therapist, I have found that the common theme amongst my clients is not their diagnosis or their problems but their deep desire for Calmness, Clarity & Connection. They seek therapy because something is not right in their lives and they want to find a better way. The ingredients to healing are found in these three elements. Whether it is through individual therapy, teen support/skill building, The c3 Method or even within the audience of my public speaking events, my clients engage in a process that leads them away from their struggles to a place of Calmness, Clarity and Connection. ​

I invite clients to a safe, warm and supportive environment to process overwhelming emotions, hardships and life transitions. I specialize in young adults, college students and adolescents facing anxiety, stress, grief and adjustment to life changes. I believe healing comes from self-awareness, self-love, and compassion. Through counseling, we build a foundation of skills leading to insight, making space for balance and well-being. As we establish a strong therapeutic alliance, we will work together to identify strategies, coping tools and self-care routines that best support you through your emotional, social and personal growth.

**NOTE: ONLINE/TELEHEALTH SESSIONS AVAILABLE*. Everyone experiences distressing or overwhelming challenges at different points in life. Many people struggle to manage these inevitable difficulties, get stuck and then subsequently feel defined by their emotional pain. This can negatively impact relationships, ambitions, work and self-worth. I believe in people’s inherent right to live meaningful and joyful lives and in their ability to choose how to respond to life’s challenges. I support my clients through their courageous process of self-exploration and self-compassion.

Does your teen have worries and negative thoughts or feelings related to school, home or peers? I can help. With over 20 years of experience working with pre-teens, adolescents and adults, I have worked extensively with several schools in the Boston Metrowest area. I understand the intricacies of the home/school connection and am adept at partnering with parents to facilitate collaboration with all providers in the child’s environment. I have successfully worked with adolescents and families to address a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and ADD/ADHD.

I specialize in meeting the needs of creative individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, or other mental health issues. Because I am the author of ten critically acclaimed books, I also work with aspiring writers, helping them to gain publication. My work is intensely relational and always focused on real results. I believe that clients are paying for a service and that they deserve to see measurable and lasting change. Along these same lines, my treatment is often relatively brief. We identify the problem(s) and the steps to change along with a timeline for these steps. Clients become active agents in their own recoveries.

I love to work with kids and adolescents and their families. I believe people don't have "problems" but rather "challenges" they learn to move through or re-frame. Together we learn new ways of doing things; new ways of looking at things; find a new path of our own choosing that feels better than the one we were on; relate to ourselves and others in a healthier way; learn to smile and laugh more; find the things we are good at doing; make a contribution; stress less; be who we are meant to be; and love who that person is!

I’m so glad you are here to begin your journey into healing from toxic relationships or possibly ending the cycle of narcissistic abuse.

Maybe you are stuck in a negative cycle of being triggered in toxic patterns with an ex that you are co-parenting with. Wherever you are in your journey, I will assist you in empowering you to make new choices that support you in your life as you change deeply held beliefs and negative patterns in relationships.

My practice is comprised of individuals and families grappling with a range of issues from addiction to high conflict divorce and college transition difficulties. Many of my clients are navigating with the strain of divorce and are seeking to learn skills to co-parent young children despite high conflict with their ex-spouse.

These clients are motivated, competent and capable, but are experiencing discomfort in their lives that requires empathic support and guidance.

Relationship conflict tends to impact people, whether you're dating, engaged, or married. Disputes can range from everyday miscommunication to more problematic issues such as infidelity, divorce, or intimacy. If love is not enough to keep you happy, you will need to develop practical approaches to conflict. It's not about if, but when to get the help that makes the difference. I help reconnect broken relationships, distant couples, & loveless marriages. As an out-of-network therapist, I do not accept insurance. However, to ensure finances aren't a barrier in getting the help you need, below I have listed alternative payment methods.
