You have been juggling it all: work, relationships, family, life. Yet, in the middle of the night, you find yourself wide awake with worry, your mind racing wondering how you will get through the next day. Maybe you feel stuck and overwhelmed at this point in your life and believe you “should” feel happy and grateful but can’t figure out what is at the root of your unhappiness. Perhaps an inner critic has you questioning yourself, and you're ready to see yourself in a kinder, more accepting way. You might be here because a significant event like losing a loved one, divorce, or medical diagnosis has you feeling lost and alone.

I am an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School and I study psychological growth, posttraumatic stress, and depression. My clinical work is inspired by my research. Generally speaking, my work begins in a humanistic-existential orientation. I believe in the client's potential for growth. When I enter a treatment, I listen to the individual, relational, and cultural narratives I am told; to the layers in each narrative; to my own reactions. I focus on feelings, unfulfilled desires, maladaptive defenses, and unsatisfying means of relatedness with past and present others - all of which generate anxiety.

As your therapist I help you look at the story you have constructed about yourself and identify the beliefs and assumptions that have held you back. Together we gather insights and then develop a course of action to get your life back on track. I have a deep knowledge of how adult ADHD affects every aspect of one's life and every relationship in it. It is hard to feel competent when those around you feel they can't rely on you. Together we design strategies that employ your strengths and talents enabling you to produce the results you want.

I have lived and studied abroad in Mexico, the United States, France, Spain, and Uganda, enriching my development with multicultural ideas. I now utilize this ability to code-switch by drawing upon Western evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT, and ACT to help you rediscover your purpose, gain renewed meaning, resolve trauma and attachment wounds and build emotional regulation skills. I combine these psychotherapy techniques with more holistic and spiritual approaches such as mindfulness, breath and bodywork, the akashic records, and quantum healing.

* ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS * My work aims to help individuals develop a deeper connection with themselves and how they relate to the world around them. Together, we will cultivate a greater sense of self-awareness to drive positive change in your life. I tend to focus on identifying maladaptive patterns in thoughts and coping strategies, understanding where these patterns stem from and what maintains them, and exploring more sustainable, affirming approaches. Often times this means examining attachments and ruptures in early development to consider how they continue to present in day-to-day life.

If you're anxious, depressed or stressed out and you’re repeating problematic thoughts or behaviors, I can probably help. Living with painful feeling is often as difficult as living with a physical illness. But I have great news - there is hope! What do you do when you have a physical illness? Go to the doctor. What do you do if you have a cavity? Go to the dentist. If you're suffering psychologically, seek relief and find a good mental health professional. Depression, anxiety, and high levels of stress require help. Working together we can find the strength and confidence to face these challenges and move toward a better future.
