I founded Blue House Therapy (website under construction but it is up) because I believe we are all worthy of living meaningful and fulfilling lives. I feel so honored to be able to work together with couples and individuals in exploring and writing their next chapter of life. You may be seeking counseling because you are aware there is something standing in your way, we could call this “the problem.” There is a saying that resonates with me, "you are not the problem, the problem is the problem."

The best psychotherapy helps transform life’s toughest challenges into deep and meaningful growth. So often our greatest healing actually begins in the pain of everyday living whether it shows up in loneliness, anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, family drama, anger, fear, shame or desperation. Gaining new perspectives on self, critically examining what isn’t working, and tapping into our natural strengths can be the most powerful way to get unstuck, develop a deeper sense of self, and cultivate more happiness.

I'm dedicated to meeting the diverse needs of our community, extending my support to a wide range of individuals, including young adults, professionals, and the elderly. At my practice, inclusivity is key, and I warmly welcome individuals from all walks of life, including those in the LGBTQ+ community, persons with disabilities, and those seeking empowerment. Additionally, I'm pleased to accept most Masshealth plans, ensuring accessibility to quality mental health services. I specialize in serving college-age individuals, professionals, mature adults, persons with disabilities, and the elderly.

Do you want to transform your life? Do you long to live in a way that’s more vivid, poignant and meaningful? Are you hungry for an authentic connection with others? It’s the key operating systems that run us when we are making dinner, interacting with our family and tying our shoes. Perhaps you are ready for some new ones? Sometimes it takes life falling apart for us to become ready to seek a new path. You need courage to let go of what no longer works and that’s where I can help. I use a lens of core vulnerability to help people understand the role of defense mechanisms and a mindfulness-based approach.

I think of my work with clients as helping to meet the ongoing challenges of life that we all experience. Problems with depression, anxiety, changing abilities, trauma, loss, self identity, or difficult relationships arise for all of us from time to time. Our challenge is to understand our experiences, develop the skills to manage them, and to visualize and move forward to live the most fulfilling life we can.

Scared, anxious, depressed, frustrated, stuck...? Looking to deepen your relationships and resolve on-going conflicts? Experiencing painful loss, a difficult transition, or trauma? I help shed light on unconscious motives, patterns, and beliefs that are no longer serving you in order to allow healing and positive changes to occur. Just as importantly I focus on utilizing your strengths so they better support you in this process. I listen deeply and compassionately in a safe, relaxing setting. And always with absolute positive regard. I work with individuals, couples and families.

Welcome. Many individuals I work with come to me with a history of depression, anxiety, trauma, difficulty in relationships, and low self-esteem. My approach focuses on understanding symptoms that arise from these experiences, along with exploring ways of managing, soothing, and coping. Importantly, I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and empathy. This is the foundation that will allow us to delve into underlying causes, patterns, and conflicts that lead to personal growth and lasting change. Together, we navigate your unique journey towards healing and self-discovery.

Currently, I have openings for teletherapy appointments in Massachusetts. I work with individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, relationship distress, substance use and trauma.

When things aren't going well, we all need different things. Sometimes we need to vent, sometimes we need someone to tell us it'll all be okay, and, sometimes we just need to someone to help us figure out what to do next. When done right, therapy can be all of those things for us. My primary goal is to ensure everyone I work with feels like there is someone here to help them through life's many trials and tribulations by focusing on creating a warm and trusting therapeutic relationship. It's through this relationship that I am able to make interpretations and suggestions that can lead to the change that you are seeking.

Do you repeat the same negative and dysfunctional patterns in your life and relationships? Do you cope with your stress in destructive ways, leaving you in constant dis-ease and discomfort mentally and emotionally? What if your symptoms and ailments were trying to tell you something about your evolution and growth? You are in the right place if you seek a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your life purpose. I utilize cutting-edge therapies like Internal Family Systems, Systemic Constellations, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.

Men and women who appear to benefit the most from working with me are those who arrive via their own motivation. They are clear that something is not working for them and they are open to investigating what might move them forward. Having curiosity as well as a willingness to expand their "comfort zone" contributes to a successful outcome. It is my intention to assist a client in expanding their understanding of their situation, others and themselves. Being "mindful" is more than a slogan; learning to be with things as they are or make changes adds greatly to well-being.

Good news! We currently have openings for both in-person and virtual therapy! Feel free to email me with any of your questions. It will be helpful for me if you include your insurance carrier in your email. Please read on!

SHIFT HAPPENS. You cannot stop the changing tide . Follow your passion, change your career, rebuild self-esteem, strengthen relationships, control addiction, delete stress, find balance in your life. You need a therapist who has first hand experience and empathic approach to make you successful. There is no SINGLE method that works for all people. I focus on the individual needs and responses of my clients to ensure that they are free of cookie-cutter therapeutic approaches or psyhchobabble, where the individual always counts first. You owe it to yourself to experience the strength you can gain from the right guide.

In 35 years working as a psychologist, I’ve been fortunate to help many individuals, couples and families through challenging moments in their lives. I’ve come to appreciate the myriad ways my clients draw on their strengths to face adversity and grow through it. Through our creative collaboration, they understand themselves more deeply and take positive steps toward achieving their goals. In the context of a trusting, collaborative relationship, I am active and interactive, asking thought-provoking questions, listening carefully, reflecting, making suggestions and providing support.

Looking for a more holistic approach to therapy? Somehow, you know it’s time to try something new, something that goes beyond just sitting and talking. Maybe you’ve been to therapy before and you’re ready to take your work to a new level. Maybe therapy is a new option for you, but somehow you know that you want something a little different. When you are ready to invest in yourself and you’re willing to try out some holistic and creative approaches, our mind-body approach offers new opportunities for healing and change. Curious?

I am a licensed clinical social worker in private practice in the Berkshires and virtually in New York City. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families struggling with a range of emotional and relational/interpersonal issues. My orientation is primarily Psychodynamic and Relational. I am strongly influenced by Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, and my training in EMDR. I work collaboratively to help you make sense of what is going on- to identify the problem and why you are feeling the way you are feeling, and use this knowledge to consider how to shift things.

Does it feel like nothing truly works to ease your anxiety? Somehow, you're getting through each day. On the surface, you're person who has it all together, but in reality you're questioning everything about yourself. You're struggling with self-doubt, people-pleasing and you put everyone else before yourself. You’re ready to drop the struggle of needing to do everything "right." You’re ready to stop needing to always be the one to handle the messes and instead be the one who gets the support. Most of all, you’re ready to finally feel okay with saying you need help.

When stress & anxiety keep you from feeling like yourself, it makes everything harder. I can help you change the ways you deal with stress, tension and struggle, and improve your relationships. Anxiety and stress can be related to trauma in your past, difficulty managing demands and day to day problems, or the challenge of big life changes. I use somatic psychotherapy, mind-body, and creative approaches to help my clients make profound change. You can have less tension, worry, self-doubt, and feelings of isolation and feel more energy, joy, connection and support.
