Please note: I am licensed to practice in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. If you are caring for an older adult with whom you have a relationship, you may find that it can be quite complicated, regardless of how good the quality of the relationship is or has been. The emotional and physical demands of caring for older adults are often overlooked and underestimated and I am here to help support you during the ups and downs of this journey. By providing therapy for caregivers who are working through the complexity of their caregiving role, I can help them maintain their sense of self-worth, integrity, and identity.

I have a particular interest in working with older adults.
Many of us live day to day thinking, "that couldn't happen to me." Difficult things can and do pop up and derail our trajectory, putting incredibly tough barriers in areas where we had no difficulty before. I have spent much of my career working with people who, for one reason or another, have had their trajectory derailed and are working to get back on track. As difficult as it might be, looking for a therapist who is a good fit is one of the most important steps in the process of beginning to take your life back. I'm so glad you're here.
