I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative process in which a safe and welcoming space is co-created. This space allows room to supportively explore-with curiosity and self-compassion-the patterns of interaction, behavior, and thoughts that might no longer serve their purpose. I am an accomplished clinician with over 15 years of direct experience. I began my professional career in San Francisco and have since relocated back to my roots in central Massachusetts. I have worked successfully with many clients with a diversity of backgrounds, experiences, strengths, challenges, and coping strategies.
I utilize an eclectic blend of skills and interventions, including but not limited to psychoeducation, mindfulness practices, CBT/DBT techniques, along with authentic curiosity and humor to best support a person’s ability to feel safe and seen. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, and a range of relationship and self-esteem issues.
I work effectively with children, adolescents, and adults across the gender spectrum. I truly love this work and recognize and honor the strength, bravery, and resilience it takes to begin to confront and unravel the places in us that can get in our own way. I provide a free 15 minute consultation to assess appropriateness of fit and course of treatment.
