Ambivalence about change is universal to us all. It is challenging to question the parts of ourselves that are no longer serving us, and invite space for something novel. In therapy with me, we will reflect upon the aspects of your life that are working for you, and places where you feel stagnant, dissatisfied, or empty. Even the parts of yourself that feel the most frustrating, perplexing, or harmful have arisen in attempts to help you. Together, we will explore all of these parts with openness, curiosity and wonder. I work with individuals who are interested in this exploratory approach to themselves and their relationships.

Who are you really? This is a question I ask my clients. I have been a psychotherapist and consultant for over 30 years. I draw on my innate intuitive abilities as well as my traditional clinical training to bring healing and transformation to my clients. My family systems background allows me to see the individual as a multifaceted system. What we perceive as a “problem” often reflects how we have adapted to the stress and trauma that we may have endured. Our perceived problems, such as addiction to substances, and other self- defeating patterns become encoded within our whole system, and ultimately distort our true essence.

I assist clients who are wanting to improve their lives in significant ways. While I specialize in treating eating disorders, anxiety and depression, most clients also come to me with related issues of trauma, self-confidence, struggles with change/transition, work, family relationships and other stressors. I see therapy as a collaborative process taking place in the context of an empathic relationship where support and appropriate challenge are offered. I encourage individuals to learn about themselves, understand the meaning behind symptoms and develop skills that enable them to take positive action toward well-being.

Not accepting new referrals at this time. Are you looking for a safe place to address feelings and behaviors that seem overwhelming? With a direct and gentle approach, and over twenty five years of experience, I offer the space you need to feel safe and begin to notice your own life patterns. Getting unstuck means developing increased awareness and finding new ways of being in our relationship with ourselves and others. I work with people to address concerns from sadness, grief, loss, trauma, depression, shame, low motivation, excessive worry, eating disorders, and adjustment to the many challenges and transitions in life.

Are you as happy as you'd like to be? I can help you understand and address the root causes of what's blocking you from accomplishing what you want in life. Whether it's help with a recent 'life transition' situation, or dealing with longer-standing issues of depression, anxiety or difficulties in relationships, I'm confident I can help.

By interweaving different types of therapy, we collaborate towards your goals in a way that's effective and respectful of your time, energy and money. Each session can be useful - I track this carefully by asking for feedback and by giving choices on how we work together. The time in-between sessions also is used - through practice 'homework' we choose individually, as a couple or as a family, or through observation/thinking. This helps us to identify what helps you to change or restrains you from change - we can then work together from an attitude of curiosity rather than "shoulds".

I work with adults dealing with a range of issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and trauma. Through the development of a trusting relationship and exploration I believe we can work through most challenges in your personal and/or work life. As a psychoanalyst and social worker with over 30 years of experience, I am deeply committed to this work. In addition to having a private practice in Concord, MA I am currently Co-Director, Supervisor and Faculty for The PINE Center Clinical Fellowship.

I am a clinic psychologist with 20 years experience working with adults and adolescents in group and individual psychotherapy. I hold faculty appointments at Harvard Medical School and McLean Hospital. I believe therapy is about partnering with clients on a journey of self-discovery, developing realistic and achievable life goals using a mix of empirically-supported therapeutic approaches. These approaches include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Interpersonal Psychotherapy.

Feeling depressed, anxious, and unable to concentrate. Perhaps your life isn't going in the direction you had hoped it would. Life can get difficult at times and counseling can truly make all the difference. I have over 15 years of counseling experience and draw upon solution focused treatment to help you start living the life you love. I invite you to call for an initial free phone consult. I work with children, adults, couples and families.

I am a caring, compassionate, professional therapist, highly experienced in providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy. My greatest asset is that I am highly committed to work with you in helping you experience relief from emotional pain, find fulfillment and love in your relationships with others, as well as peace, acceptance, and joy in your relationship with yourself. I consider my work my life's work. My clients find strength within themselves and in their relationships, as they seek to live with understanding and love more effectively each day. I am honored to be part of your journey.

We're the therapists for "kids who don't like therapy." These days - especially - teens are too often suffering and struggling in their homes and in our schools. And everyone could use some help: kids, parents, and the caring professionals in our schools. Throughout the state, our therapists and life coaches serve as "part of the team," helping teens to feel better, and do better. Together, we'll explore and better understand what's been happening, how to change patterns, and how to get better results!

**I am not currently accepting new clients** While therapy can be challenging, it can also be the catalyst that allows you to live a more fulfilled and meaningful life. I seek to provide a safe space for you to explore the things that are holding you back in life, whether your troubles are rooted in experiences from your past or arose from current life stressors. I view therapy as a collaborative, dynamic, and individualized process. I have a warm and engaging style and am flexible in adapting therapy to meet your needs and goals.
