I am a clinical health psychologist who specializes in treating people coping with anxiety, chronic pain, stress, medical issues, mood disorders, and difficulties adjusting to life changes.
I believe that each person is unique, and therefore no one approach is right for everyone. I strive to integrate a variety of techniques and perspectives from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness based therapies, relaxation training, biofeedback, clinical hypnotherapy, and supportive therapy to create a treatment that is tailored to the individual I am working with.
For more information please visit my website at collaborativehealthpsychology.com
I specialize in clinical health psychology and have completed internships in behavioral medicine at two Harvard affiliated teaching hospitals.
I have been extensively trained in CBT, mindfulness based therapies, relaxation training, biofeedback, and clinical hypnosis.
I combine these skills to effectively treat anxiety, chronic pain, and stress related medical issues.
My Back Bay office is located near the Copley Square green line and Back Bay station orange line stops. There is also available metered on street parking and is very convenient by car to Storrow Drive and the Mass Pike Copley exit.
