Psychologist in MA (hybrid) and NY (virtual) - There are many reasons to consider therapy. You may find yourself stuck in old patterns, such as compulsive behaviors, relationship difficulties, or frequent worry. You may be struggling with new challenges, like grief, a new health diagnosis, or a career change. Therapy provides a space for you to confront problems with the support of a professional. Using evidence-based strategies and compassion, I help patients explore new perspectives. My goal is for patients to use insights and skills from therapy to live more authentically and make desired changes in their lives.
My style balances pragmatism, humor, compassion, and curiosity. I treat a range of concerns, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance use, and adjustment to health challenges. Using CBT as a foundation, I draw on a range of theoretical approaches, emphasizing rootedness in the present moment and interpersonal connection.
If you are even considering psychotherapy, you are already working toward change. Whatever your challenges, deciding to schedule a first appointment is the next step to healing and shows a commitment to your personal growth and wellbeing. I look forward to working together!

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within 1-2 months and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
