"I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse. I recognize the sensitive nature of these issues and the challenges these individual experience. I aim to provide an environment supportive for recovery and use empirically validated techniques to address trauma symptoms. I also work with individuals who need general mental health treatment, including difficulties with depression and anxiety. All services are available in English or Spanish. Additionally, I provide forensic services, including assessment and expert witness testimony. I specialize in the areas of interpersonal violence and abuse, trauma and Posttraumatic Stress d/o, and sexual abuse."

"I have experience working with Complex Trauma, Depression and Anxiety, among other struggles. I do not locate the difficulties clients face within the person, but in the relations between people, and the systems they are involved in. I work to support the client creating their preferred life narrative. We work together to understand and limit what is getting in the way of the client living and relating in ways closest to their values. I have completed numerous post-graduate Trauma treatment trainings. In addition to relational counseling, I have been teaching Argentine Tango to couples for 20 years."

"I believe that attending to inner experience in the presence of a caring, well-trained, and interested therapist can lead to tangible life improvements. I'd like to work with you to improve your mood, outlook, and relationships. Therapy offers a rich and warm environment to get to know yourself and what it is you would most deeply like to have in your life. Equally importantly, therapy can then help you build the tools and resources (both internal and external) to transform your life."

"In my work as a therapist I seek to create an environment that is caring and supportive while allowing us to identify opportunities for growth and healing. My approach emphasizes skill-building, increasing insight and helping you to return to a life that is balanced, healthy and productive. I believe that with the right fit therapy can be rewarding and even life-changing. I work collaboratively with clients to reduce distress and emotional pain related to issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship concerns among others."

"Does life right now seem difficult, confusing, overwhelming? Do you feel empty, or stuck? Have you experienced a painful loss? Are you dealing with a life transition, wishing to achieve something new without knowing how to move forward? Do you long for a relationship? Or is the relationship you have contentious, troubled or unfulfilling? I will work closely and collaboratively with you-whether an individual or couple-to examine what is troubling you, to understand and unravel repetitive, unproductive behavior patterns, to help you move forward into change that promotes growth, relieves painful symptoms and limitations, and creates a new sense of expansion and choice."

"Hello, and welcome. I provide client-centered psychotherapy, drawing on several theoretical orientations (psychodynamic and relational approaches, as well as mindfulness and skills-based modalities) and always tailoring my approach to the specific needs of each client. I believe that the experience of being deeply understood within a secure and trusting therapeutic relationship is a foundation that supports growth, change, and healing."

"I'm a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. I understand that seeking a therapist is an act of profound courage and wellness, and I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your concerns. I work with you at your own pace to recognize, validate, and support your natural strengths while gently challenging you to identify, understand, and alleviate symptoms, suffering, and barriers to fulfillment."

"My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative, and is influenced by the specific needs of each individual. My style is relational and incorporates elements of both psychodynamic (insight oriented) and cognitive behavioral therapy (skill building), as well as mindfulness. In my experience, I have found that long lasting effects come from working with and addressing both the current symptoms of distress as well as the underlying factors that have caused these feelings. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is central, and value establishing a strong connection and working together in order to achieve personal changes."

"In my 20 years as a therapist, my respect for the healing power of relationships has grown and deepened. Whether I am conducting individual, family or group therapy, I focus on our relationships: to other people, to our past, to our bodies and to our thoughts and feelings. I treat people struggling with anxiety, depression, major mental illnesses, eating disorders and the life stresses that accompany growing up and growing older. The "leaving home" in young adulthood; the "letting go" in our adult years; and confronting loss throughout our lives--therapy helps guide and stabilize us during these big transitions."

"We all need support, guidance and inspiration on the journey of becoming who we most want to be. Issues that emerge in relationships often stem from a disconnect from the self. My hope is to support individuals in connecting to their own inner wisdom in attempt to live with authenticity. I specialize in work with sexuality and gender and see couples of any/all genders. I focus on communication, repair after betrayal, trust and intimacy. With compassion, I support clients in living their truths, understanding patterns, exploring different aspects of themselves and developing insight and awareness."

"I specialize in helping people to manage and recover from eating disorders and co-occurring illnesses. I believe that clients who struggle with eating disorders have inherently painful emotions which are managed by various harmful behaviors so I work collaboratively with clients, their support network, and their outpatient providers to find ways to change these behaviors and manage emotions in both the short and long term. In my outpatient practice, I see individuals of all ages and genders who struggle with a wide variety of challenges related to disordered eating, body image issues, and low self-esteem."

"My goal is to provide a safe, warm and accepting environment to any person seeking help. I have experience treating a wide range of diagnostic and presenting concerns, and I believe that therapy is helpful to any person who wants to examine and improve upon their thoughts and behaviors."

"Seeking therapy is a sign of personal strength. Often people who engage in therapy are actually doing well in life, but would like to do better in one area or another. It takes awareness in our lives and courage to be able to reach out for help. I strive to put people at ease in building the therapeutic relationship. I also greatly value individual differences and approach each client with an open-minded and non-judgmental stance. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of a successful experience in therapy."

"Have you had anxiety, worry, or doubt? If you are like most people, you have at least experienced some amount of it in your lifetime. But what about when it become paralyzing to the point that you can't move forward in your career, relationship, business, or even just get throughout the day without being tormented by it. The problem with worry and anxiety is that people are not born with ready-made strategies for managing their anxiety. That's where I can help. I work with clients who experience anxiety-related problems of all types (trauma, OCD, phobia)."

"Helping people live a life of authenticity and ease is at the heart of my work. We all need a safe and supportive place to feel heard, move through challenges and develop insight. I meet my clients where they are and encourage them toward their goals with compassion, hope, and kindness. On this therapeutic journey we learn to identify and embrace strengths, integrate new skills and self-understanding, and come into a deeper knowing of ourselves."

"By the time people start therapy, they've often tried nearly everything to solve their problems on their own. I respect the hard work you may have already done -- and your courage in seeking more support. Therapy can help you free up the "stuck" places in your life. My approach is warm, open-minded, active, and empathic. My goals are to help you find more satisfaction in your work and relationships, feel more self-confidence and vitality, and live a happy, meaningful life. My priority is always to respect the pace and direction that is right for you."

"I am a licensed psychologist in Massachusetts. I received my PhD in Clinical Psychology from Suffolk University, and completed my training at Princeton and a VA hospital. I have six years of experience working with adults, adolescents, and couples with complicated backgrounds and situations. I view therapy as an active and collaborative process of working towards goals. My style is warm, empathic, practical, and humorous when appropriate. I genuinely care about my clients' concerns and goals, and work to help them gain not only relief, but also the ability to live as fully and happily as they wish."

"Regardless of age or background, we can become estranged from our inner experience, and our actions can be governed by unconscious forces which are hidden from us. Sometimes the very skills we honed in order to survive end up trapping us in places that are difficult, painful, or unsatisfying. Therapy should be a safe space to look within in order to build an integrated sense of self and new approaches to old problems."

"Making a decision to seek help comes from a place of strength in yourself. In therapy, we will be working together to deepen your inner resources while at the same time addressing symptoms, habits, beliefs, and behaviors that are preventing you from getting where you really want to go and achieving a fulfilling and meaningful interpersonal, academic and professional life."

"If you are experiencing difficult life circumstances, suffering from excessive anxiety or other painful emotions, or going through a period of transition, then together we can discuss how I may be able to help. I adapt therapy to your unique goals, circumstances, and personal needs and work with you to develop an individualized treatment plan to help you attain your goals for therapy -- whether that involves improving your functioning, mood, or quality of life or enhancing your relationship satisfaction. I offer a range of services, have expertise working with university students, and welcome adults of all ages."
