Therapists in Boston, MA

I have over 25 years of experience in the social work field working with individuals of all ages, families, LGBTQ and students and come from a strengths-based and solution focused approach. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist committed to building a solid relationship and creating a safe space for anyone to share and explore together. I incorporate various methods of talk therapy, CBT, SFBT, mindfulness, and spiritual guidance.

Welcome! I’m a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) specializing in working with adults 30+ with anxiety, ADHD and substance use. I collaborate with clients around stress management, mindfulness, and the relationship between physical & mental health. I’m especially passionate about guiding those with demanding careers & leadership roles towards integrating a stronger work-life balance.

All clients are welcome in this space. Are you willing to work through it? Where’s the obstacle? Are you ready to open yourself and accept who you are or Who you could become? This world has been challenging and inflexible. Interest, transparency and commitment are the key to start working together. My experience working with different cultures, social background and reality reinforce us to understand different issues from different perspective. In this space you will be validated.

Feel lost, stuck, lonely? Having a hard time coping with a recent trauma? Going through a life transition? Open to a more holistic approach to therapy? Unlike regular talk therapy sessions, which may focus on surface issues and provide short term comfort, my holistic approach dives deeper for longer-term healing. My unique approach addresses the body, mind, and soul as they are all connected in the healing process.

Whether you want to shift thinking patterns, heal from trauma, adapt behavior, or are seeking deeper insights into your relationships, therapy can be powerful and life-altering. As a Psychotherapist and Leadership Psychologist, I partner with my clients to help them work through challenges so that new possibilities can emerge. When individuals or couples recognize how they make sense of their lives, their past, and their thinking habits, they move closer to living the life they want. My practice is psychodynamic, drawing on tools from a variety of modalities, such as coaching, yoga, meditation, CBT, and narrative therapy.

Embarking on growth and seeking support isn't easy. My mission is to stand by you, empowering you to uncover strengths and tackle challenges. Whether anxiety, depression, or feeling “stuck”, I offer a supportive hand and tools to move forward. As a licensed psychologist, I specialize in supporting adolescents, young adults, adults, healthcare workers, and leaders. My approach emphasizes collaboration, empathy, and a judgment-free space. I'm committed to guiding you toward a fulfilling life, offering therapy, coaching, career support, and more. Let's journey together toward growth and self-discovery.

If I were to imagine an ideal client, it would be someone who wants to change no matter what their needs are. It would also be someone who is open to new and innovative treatment modalities. It is also beneficial to have someone who is not hindered in what they discuss. Everything is important.

**I am licensed to provide therapy in RI & MA** I don't believe that therapy has to look or feel like therapy as it is often represented. Together we can approach life's challenges in an intentional, action oriented, person centered and thoughtful way, in order to help break and change the patterns that have too often rendered you "stuck." To assist in making these changes, I provide the direct and honest guidance and feedback that is absolutely necessary to any successful therapy, while fostering an environment where you feel able to take the risks to grow, adjust, and adapt. My guiding principle is that change is always possible.

Overthinking, anxiety spirals, and emotional outbursts when the stakes are high can really make your life and relationships feel out of control. You've tried to solve, fix, or talk yourself out of your feelings because they seem to lead to so many unwanted experiences with yourself and with others, but no amount of telling yourself you're being unreasonable or that you "shouldn't" feel the way you do has resulted in anything other than feelings of guilt, shame, and frustration. You watch as your self-criticism about how you "should" or "shouldn't" feel spiral into feelings of hopelessness and even self-loathing.

I have been a child & adolescent therapist for 49yrs., & I enjoy my work greatly. I also work with parents who want advice and guidance about parenting skills. Children can change much faster than adults, and that is why I love working with young people. I try to support their strengths, encourage their creativity, relate to them with warmth and humor. I also work with parents with children, and with parents with teens if teens want me to. I like the challenge of connecting with both children and teens, ages 4 to 20.

I believe we are all capable of improving our lives. Many of us become stuck or overwhelmed in the process due to self doubt, insecurity, lack of self esteem, past or present trauma and losses, to name a few. Seeking therapy doesn’t mean that there is something wrong with you. Life is challenging. Sometimes we need a little help in identifying and overcoming the barriers that hold us back.
