Therapists in Boston, MA

Accepting new clients. Are you feeling anxious or down? Are you unsure about the future of a relationship, or wondering why you find yourself repeating the same patterns and behaviors? Therapy is a collaborative process of self-discovery and personal growth.

I came to work as a therapist through my own experiences in therapy. These experiences guide my work and deeply inform how I show up as a therapist. I seek to create an environment in therapy where people can express themselves, heal from past harms and trauma, and connect with their purpose. I specialize in working with youth (ages 10 and up), families, young adults, and men across the spectrum of age. I also specialize in supporting people who have caused harm.

Psychotherapy is a deeply transformative and personal process. As such, how I work with clients is dependent on their needs, personality, and level of functioning. Although I incorporate a variety of approaches into therapy, I primarily draw from the relational psychodynamic model. This orientation assumes that in order for a person to experience emotional health, she or he must maintain fulfilling and satisfying relationships with those around them, and that emotional distress often is the result of negative, past relational experiences.
