A Yale, Dartmouth and Lehigh trained Psychologist, I run a full-time private practice and hold an appointment as a Lecturer in Extension at Harvard University. I am licensed in New Hampshire, Vermont and New York. I completed my Doctoral Fellowship in Clinical Psychology at Yale University (2015) where I won a Leadership Award for Outstanding Contributions.

I'm a clinical psychologist with over 25 years experience working with people who have anxiety, depression, nervous system dysregulation, inconsistent work performance, or a general dissatisfaction with their relationships or their lives. My practice emphasizes evidence-based treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). I have extensive experience tailoring these approaches to meet the specific needs of professional performers (actors, athletes, business people) and people living with serious medical conditions.

I often treat adolescents and adults suffering from anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as couples and families grappling with interpersonal struggles. Extensive training and experience in trauma-focused therapy allows me to help clients process and heal from painful experiences, and has shown me how profoundly life experience can shape one's view of themselves and their world. For those suffering from anxiety, depression, or relationship concerns, I find that I work best with those who prefer an engaging, solution-focused approach.

Many children and adults are immersed in struggling to cope with post covid reactions. The isolation of lockdown and COVID itself has caused lingering symptoms of depression, anxiety, fatigue and ambivalence about re-engaging with others and with activities that are life affirming. To compound matters we are witnessing the slaughter of innocent human beings at the mercy of a mass murderer. Don't delay in seeking help if you are struggling to make sense of your life. Bring your partner, family or your friend group for a session. You and those you bring might be surprised by the therapeutic benefit of even one meeting.

Today, life often presents us with an unsettling tension between overwhelming uncertainty or loss, and a relentless demand to be productive, happy, and to have a strong sense of identity or purpose. Whether one is exploring psychotherapy due to crisis, impasse, troubling symptoms, or relational concerns, all people can benefit from a space where they can make meaning of their experiences and thoughts in a collaborative way. Though psychodynamic treatment requires vulnerability and curiosity, it is an opportunity for transformative self-exploration and healing that will be contained in a space of attentive listening and care.
