Over the years, we have worked with many men who feel like they’re carrying the weight of everything—career pressure, relationship struggles, stress, anxiety, and expectations about what it means to “have it all together.” The truth is, a lot of men feel stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed, but don’t always have a place where they can talk openly about what’s really going on. That’s where therapy can help.

I offer both in-person and telehealth therapy sessions to make accessing support convenient.
Many people spend so much time caring for others that they struggle to find space to care for themselves. Others carry difficult experiences from military service, grief after the loss of a loved one, or emotional wounds from past trauma. When these experiences remain unspoken or unresolved, they can contribute to anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and a sense of isolation. Therapy offers a supportive and confidential space where you can process these experiences, better understand your emotions, and begin to restore balance in your life.

Psychologist, PsyD
Boston, MA 02130
Often, we find ourselves stuck. We repeat ineffective and painful patterns, think worrisome and self-critical thoughts, or struggle with communication and conflict in our most important relationships. Our past creeps in and shapes how we relate to ourselves and others. I believe our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors make sense in the context of our lived experiences. Understanding our patterns creates the opportunity for meaningful change. It takes courage to tell your story, whether this is your first time in therapy or you are returning. It is a privilege to learn about you and partner with you in pursuit of your goals.

Do you have a place where you can be truly heard? That's what I strive to create with you in the therapy space: somewhere for you to bring whatever it is that you're struggling with or the stuff that feels too heavy to bear alone. Maybe your challenges are preventing you from enjoying satisfaction and contentment. Perhaps you are in a period of transition and therapy could be a space to think through decisions that are in alignment with your most important values. Or maybe you're struggling in a relationship to overcome old patterns that have limited you until now.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.

When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.

How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
