Therapists in Milton, MA

I am a Master's level clinician with a degree in social work from Boston College. I utilize many different treatment approaches in my work with kids, teens, adolescents, and young adults. I strive to create an open and safe environment for my clients, to help them feel comfortable feeling and expressing their emotions. Together we can work on any challenges that may come your way. I have a variety of specialities including mood disorders, transitions, managing emotions, and coping skills. I utilize modalities such as CBT, DBT, mindfulness, psychoeducation, and skill building. I offer both in person and virtual sessions.

I am a dedicated and compassionate clinician with a strong commitment to promoting mental wellness and personal development. I tailor my approach to meet the diverse needs of each client to create a safe and nurturing environment where clients can openly explore their concerns, build resilience, and develop practical skills that can be applied to various life situations. I am committed to connecting with individuals across age groups to establish a strong therapeutic alliance and foster an atmosphere of trust and collaboration.

Our clients come seeking cofacilitation through the process of healing from traumatic experiences, grief or a major transition in life. Crossroad offers individualized psychotherapy services, psychoeducation groups, coaching, mindfulness practices, substance abuse counseling and navigation supports for returning citizens. Crossroad provides an holistic approach to aid through the process of one becoming aware of their inner strengths and accessing external resources.

My practice is comprised of individuals and families grappling with a range of issues from addiction to high conflict divorce and college transition difficulties. Many of my clients are navigating with the strain of divorce and are seeking to learn skills to co-parent young children despite high conflict with their ex-spouse. Others are parents devastated by the ravages of addiction on their child and, ultimately, their family. These clients are motivated, competent and capable, but are experiencing discomfort in their lives that requires empathic support and guidance.

You are the “go to” person for friends, family, and colleagues, but the cost is a lot of anxiety. Being seen as competent and put together helps you to achieve, while the pressure created by high expectations gets in the way of your day to day happiness. You want to get off the hamster wheel of pleasing and perfecting, but are unsure of how to do it. While you look like you have it together to those around you, on the inside you are struggling and have a hard time asking for help.

Welcome, If your seeking a judgement free zone, you found it. I'm a therapist who works with adults on a wide range of issues. I'm happy to do individual therapy or couples counseling. My goal with any client is to help you reach your goal so you can confidently go out into the world and be the you that you want to be. Good therapy is like Mary Poppins. The therapist swoops in, help the client improve their life by reaching their goals and then fly away on their umbrella. And don't worry, the singing is optional.

I help individuals navigate difficult periods within life: developing easy to learn coping skills and developing an eye to see problems with wide perceptual lenses and equanimity. It is my hope that my clients feel listened to and supported, aspiring to create an environment of trust. I may work with different modalities that I have been trained with and have found success implementing ( only if a client resonants with that particular approach). We work together to find the way to move through the difficulty and true healing is restored.

I have a virtual practice in several states on the East coast and am able to practice in close to 28 others. Online therapy is the new wave as a result of the pandemic and beyond.

I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from The California Institute in San Francisco.
