Therapists in Cambridge, MA
The process of finding a therapist can feel overwhelming at times. I invite you here to briefly pause, take a breath, and bring some awareness into the sensations of your body in this moment. What do you notice? Are there particular thoughts, feelings, urges present? Perhaps you notice some hope or frustration, tension or ease. Seeing if you can allow space for whatever may be coming into awareness to simply be as it is, observing it with some curiosity and compassion. When you feel ready, re-connecting to what brought you here, to this page, and to this moment.

Effective psychotherapy resembles friendship in the most generative and robust sense of the term. In the context of an increasingly trustworthy connection, I will accompany you into your inner world, where we might encounter together, with increasing complexity, the givens of your unique existence. Companioning you with presence and offerings of perspective, I will bring persistence, patience, and playfulness to our meetings. As your capacity for curiosity and self-compassion organically expand through this dialogue, you'll come to know-and-love yourself and others with an increasing harmony of calmness, clarity, and courage.

Do you overthink everything or are you too caught up in the “what ifs” in your head that you ensure you stay stuck? Are you too focused on making other people happy that you have lost track of yourself? Maybe you are your own worst enemy- with a well-honed inner critic that has been shit talking you for awhile now, reminding you of all the things you are messing up or getting wrong. You are doing your best- caffeine, multitasking, or white knuckling it may be getting you through (kind of), but at the end of the day you are exhausted and overwhelmed. You want to feel connected, loved, and self-confident.

Sometimes we notice that a problem or feeling of distress is not actually new, but one we have carried for a long time. Alternatively, stressful circumstances can suddenly challenge our usual and effective ways of coping requiring us to change. Psychotherapy offers an ideal context for modifying patterns of experience or feelings of being stuck that occur within our relationships, work, and internal worlds. This creative process contains elements of surprise that evolve over the course of the treatment, yet the work is also a demanding rigorous endeavor.

My ideal client would be someone who is ready and willing to participate in treatment. I am comfortable with an array of different diagnoses and struggles. Their needs would include working towards tangible goals that we are able to breakdown in the treatment setting. They may want to work on self-esteem, depression, anxiety, PTSD symptoms etc. They would want to minimize their symptoms and improve everyday functioning. The goal would ultimately be to no longer need treatment as they have reached their goals.

Therapy is an opportunity to make changes (in mood, anxiety, behavior, work, school, relationships, lifestyle, etc.), and it can feel like climbing a mountain--simultaneously terrifying, frustrating, and exhilarating. As your therapist, I'll be by your side keeping the summit in sight even when you can see only seemingly endless rocks and ice ahead. I am a down-to-earth, pragmatic, general therapist (with a sense of humor). I integrate psychodynamic, cognitive, behavioral, motivational enhancement, and stress reduction principles and techniques into treatment based on your needs, goals, and the best strategy to reach the view from the top.

I practice from a relational psychodynamic orientation and integrate aspects of cognitive behavioral and narrative psychotherapy in my approach. This means that our work together will consist of identifying the patterns in how you relate to other people and to yourself and working to change those patterns, allowing for more fulfilling interpersonal relationships and a discarding of unhelpful ways of being. I am committed to understanding the dynamics of power and oppression and the ways I can help to undermine and process them in the context of our work.
