My goal as your therapist is to help you achieve peace with your past and develop healthy ways to cope in the present. I have 7 years of experience providing individual and group therapy. I am trained in EMDR (an evidence-based approach to addressing trauma, grief, loss and negative thinking). I am also fully trained in CPT (a specific type of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for PTSD). In addition, I utilize CBT essentials, motivational interviewing, and various other therapeutic interventions as well as a 12 step informed approach to recovery. I provide a safe, empathetic, supportive environment where you can feel comfortable.

When you improve your relationship with yourself and your relationships with others, you are “on the path” to a happier, healthier life. I’d like to help you along that path. Together, we can explore a range of approaches: whatever works. But – so you know where I’m coming from – in the end, it’s always about relationships. I’d like to meet you.

Forming a positive and interpersonal therapeutic relationship with each patient is fundamental to developing effective coping skills, fostering a deeper self-knowledge, and ultimately achieving a sustainable whole-self. It is of great importance to me, that the person seeking my services comes to believe in themselves and in their own potential for achieving wholeness, healing and strength. I utilize empathetic, supportive language and other therapeutic methods to enhance and actualize treatment success. I have been working effectively with patients for more than 15 years, creating a warm and naturally therapeutic environment.

Is the stress of work and family life becoming difficult to manage? Do you struggle to find meaning in your life? Are you working to understand competing aspects of your identity? It is my privilege to help my clients work through their personal struggles, using a psychodynamic approach that is both relational and existential. I believe that the relationship between a therapist and client provides an empowering, life-affirming space to work through life's struggles and to bring about healing.

In my practice, by face to face sessions or by using online Telehealth confidential therapy, I work with clients to feel comfortable and to form a bond, based on trust, that will foster a relaxed positive therapeutic interaction. It is important to me that, from the very first session, the client can communicate his or her story and feels heard, so that I can understand the presenting issues, communicate hope, and formulate mutually agreeable goals to achieve in our work together.

Therapy is an act of strength, hope, and resiliency. Even the happiest and most well-adjusted people may encounter problems resulting from unexpected life challenges and demands. My goal is to work in collaboration and partnership with my clients to bring about positive changes, growth, and healing from past painful events. I have 15 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist. I received both my Master's degree and Continued Advanced Graduate Study Degree in Counseling Psychology from Cambridge College. I am also certified as a cognitive behavioral therapist from Boston University School of Social Work.

Note: Email is the best way to reach me for faster reply. I am a therapist who is passionate about helping my clients regain (or maybe gain for the first time) a true sense of self. Addiction, old behavior patterns, unhealthy coping mechanisms... they can all derail us from discovering our authenticity and our purpose in life. I have experience in helping clients of all backgrounds move into recovery from alcohol and substance use disorders, behavioral addictions, anxiety disorders, and depression.

Whether you are struggling with sadness, anger, worry, or feeling alone and overwhelmed, reaching out for help is courageous. I create a nonjudgmental space that is warm, genuine, and collaborative to help you find relief and feel seen. Through compassion and a sense of humor, clients have shared that they feel they could authentically be themselves with me. Together, we will use various evidence-based techniques to help you explore, heal, and make changes in your life that are important to you. Therapy is a place where you will feel safe to learn helpful tools and find coping skills to make lasting changes.
