Counselor, LMHC
Belmont, MA 02478
You've sought me out for counseling because you experience a significant discrepancy in your life between how you feel and how you'd like to feel. You're seeking to have positive mental health, that is, to know yourself, to be yourself, to expand your capacity to care for yourself and others and your world, to maintain humility, and to maintain hope. You're aware of the fluctuating nature of your functionality: at times you function well, and at other times you don't function as well as you'd like to. You're aware that, at times, you have experienced distress, that is, difficult life moments. You're ready to create a better life.

Experiencing life with anxiety, grief, and trauma is exhausting, especially when caring for others. You long to move forward with ease and connection but spend a lot of your energy on keeping yourself safe. Tension in your chest or a pit in your stomach make it difficult to enjoy pleasure or be present with the good things happening in your life. As a somatic, IFS trained therapist, we can use your body’s signals as a map to discover the parts of you that need attention. These parts that hold painful experiences can be nurtured, creating space for more vitality and creativity expressed in a richer, fuller life.

I have been a psychotherapist for over 40 years with individuals and couples. I consider myself a spiritual psychologist and a relationship counselor. I use a synthesis of body-mind, mindfulness and relational approaches. My focus is to support the person to stand in their own strength, courage and compassion. As they feel their own sense of worth then they are more able to express this in relationship, the creative arts, or work. "When inward tenderness finds the secret hurt, Pain itself will crack the rock and AH! LET THE SOUL EMERGE. Rumi

Pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition to parenthood are times of profound change that can bring both deep meaning and unexpected emotional challenges. Becoming a parent can shift so much of how we understand ourselves and our relationships, making it an emotionally complex rite of passage. This transition can bring up new questions about who we are, what we need, and how we want to relate to ourselves and others. I offer support to help make sense of these questions and navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, grief, infertility, identity shifts, and major life transitions with greater clarity and confidence.

Trauma. Depression. Anxiety. Inattention. These are all natural responses to the challenges of life. These challenges are daunting on their own, and can feel insurmountable because of how the world treats gender, race, sexuality and learning differences. I'm a therapist at the intersection of multiple identities (queer, non-binary, Japanese American, Jewish). I use mindfulness-based therapies to help clients live in the present moment and find liberation from the impact of family history and systemic discrimination.

In our work together, I help you honor your sensitivity as a strength, rebuild healthy boundaries, and learn to trust the deep inner wisdom that has always been there.

We all have a unique path, an unfolding story to tell, and various crossroads to navigate on our journey through life. At times the path may be difficult; we may feel lost and unable to find our way or change direction alone. It may be a crisis in a family or relationship, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief/loss, difficulties with work or school, or an inner sense that something is just not right. I believe our natural state is one of joy and well-being but experiences in life can cause suffering and distance us from feeling whole. I take a holistic approach based on the premise that the mind and body function as one.

Transpersonal Therapists
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.

How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.

Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilize the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.

What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
