I work with adults and older adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite like themselves. This may include managing mood, stress, or sleep, navigating life transitions, adjusting to aging or health changes, moving through menopause, noticing memory changes, or supporting a loved one with cognitive decline. I also work with people focused on improving overall wellness, executive functioning, brain health, and longevity. Many of my clients are thoughtful people who know what might help but struggle to turn insight into action. Together, we create a clear, practical path forward so you can feel more grounded and in control.
I’m a licensed psychologist and geropsychologist. I use CBT and Motivational Interviewing to help clients manage mood, reduce anxiety, and build lasting resilience and motivation. I offer practical support for those experiencing cognitive changes and executive functioning struggles. I help clients shift patterns and feel more clear, confident, and capable.
I’ve trained and worked at leading institutions, including 14 years as a psychologist and healthcare leader at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, and I’m affiliated with Harvard Medical School. My approach blends science and clinical expertise with genuine care and practical guidance, so you feel supported, understood, and empowered every step of the way.
