Therapists in West Somerville, MA

Hello/hola! My name is Piero and I am a gay, Peruvian, Spanish-speaking man who loves having ADHD and eating pizza. I deeply enjoy meeting with individuals, couples, and families, and it would be an honor to see how I can help you. I believe the most important thing in the therapeutic relationship is our connection, and that you enjoy meeting with me. You want a therapist who you look forward to seeing and who you feel comfortable and safe with, who is also willing to challenge you and help you grow. I like to be warm and friendly as well as direct and blunt, use humor when appropriate, and am comfortable talking about anything.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of anxiety, mood, and behavioral disorders in children, adolescents, and adults. I have extensive experience helping individuals, families, and parents manage symptoms of social anxiety, panic, agoraphobia, phobias, generalized anxiety, BFRBs, and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I earned my MA and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at Suffolk University and completed my post-doctoral fellowship at McLean Hospital, a Harvard Medical School affiliate.

What stands between you and your Happiness? I welcome you as we develop trust and explore what is getting in the way of you experiencing a more satisfying life. I have been privileged to work with children, teens, & adults with a wide variety of family histories. Often our childhood experiences play a big part in how we develop as adults. Post COVID 19, some have a new set of fears and real issues regarding work, health, and relationships. I specialize in ADHD, Depression, Trauma, and Anxiety. There are many tools (Mindfulness, CBT, Compassionate Inquiry) that we explore to see which is most supportive for each individual.

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I am a licensed therapist with over a decade of clinical experience working with adults from a myriad of backgrounds. I offer a collaborative approach to therapy with warmth, authenticity, and empathy. My primary areas of focus include anxiety, ADHD, depression, disordered eating, career concerns, parental stress, women’s issues, life transitions, and relationship issues. I pride myself on consistent education and self reflection in cultural competency to ensure I am able to justly provide services to all communities especially LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC.

Feeling nervous or stressed is natural. When these feelings overwhelm us, we need someone to listen, to validate our concerns, and to help us get to the root of our problems with tools that will inspire hope, and help us regain control of our lives. I use Mindfulness Practices to help people sit with, and tolerate what comes up. I use Self-Compassion Practices to help soothe what ails you, and I often use CBT to organize our plan going forward. This gives you tools that you can use immediately, and strikes a fine balance between listening and responding.
