Hi and thanks for visiting my profile. It's a huge step to reach out to a therapist for help. Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially since most of us are doing so during a time of stress or crisis. Whether you are coping with loss, depression, anxiety, trauma or adjusting to changes in health, school or career, I can help. I can help you develop a plan to implement positive changes for the quality of life you deserve.
I have a successful track record helping clients to overcome a range of issues and make positive changes in their lives. I treat depression, anxiety, trauma, sexual identity and adjustment to disability issues.
I am warm, friendly and interactive and use a creative blend of cognitive behavioral, relational and psychodynamic techniques. I am a licensed psychologist with a doctorate in Counseling Psychology from Northeastern University and 25 years of experience counseling adults, adolescents and students within the Greater Boston area.
