I am a clinical psychologist with expertise in whole-person health and the science of behavior change.

I am a pediatric neuropsychologist with a specialty in Autism. I also have years of experience assessing other referrals including learning disabilities, ADHD, anxiety and mood. I believe every lagging skill also offers a strength. My assessment approach is wholistic: In addition to traditional neuropsychological evaluation conducted in my office, I gather perspectives from teachers, caregivers, and other key individuals in your child's life. I prefer, when possible, to observe each child in one other setting outside of my office, usually school. My turn-around time from intake to report is one month. Currently booking May '22

I believe that peace of mind is possible—for individuals, couples, and their loved ones—even after every other option has failed. I’ve been in practice for more than 30 years and have worked with countless individuals, couples, and families to assess and address a wide range of issues, including relationship and career concerns, major life transitions, chronic health challenges, and problems related to mental health and substance use.

 In my work, I help young adults and adults who are experiencing various difficulties in their lives, including stress, depression, anxiety, family conflicts, and grief.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), with a Masters in Clinical Social Work from Boston College. My professional focus includes clinical work with children, individual adults, couples and families navigating the complexities of divorce. I also work with couples looking to strengthen their relationship through couple's counseling. I offer individual therapy to both children and adults, couple's therapy, co-parenting counseling, reunification therapy and family therapy to both divorcing and blending/step-family units.

The main focus of my work is helping couples recapture the relationship that is slipping away or has been broken by betrayal, disagreement, anger or lack of caring. I am also a divorce coach and parent coordinator. I work with individuals, couples and adult families, in a variety of modalities, to make life the best it can be.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who has been treating adolescents, adults, couples, and families for over 20 years. I am trained in a wide variety of techniques that are designed to produce measurable and meaningful results. I also work with families and couples to help improve or repair relationships. My approach is positive, empathic, and solution-focused. Therapy results should not be a mystery - it should be clear that it works as you feel better, reach goals, and set new ones.

In addition to my faculty and hospital-based roles, I have a private practice for children, adolescents, and adults. I am trained in evidence-based approaches, including CBT and DBT, and treat a range of psychiatric diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, OCD, self-injury, trauma, somatic symptoms, and eating disorders (including ARFID). I welcome children/teens, couples, parents, and families from all backgrounds and strive for culturally responsive and attuned care. My interventions include mindfulness (relaxation and awareness) and focus on reducing distress and improving relationships, all delivered with warmth and humor.

Please feel free to call if you are looking for support or therapy. I am available to work with anyone who resides in Massachusetts. All sessions will take place online using a telehealth devise utilizing communication on a computer, tablet or phone.

My clinical expertise are especially beneficial to those living with ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, relationships and family conflict, as well as those struggling with life transitions, stress management, and self-esteem. It is our mission to work holistically with individuals and families using a strategic and strengths-based approach to help our clients be an “open book” throughout the therapeutic process. We help to maximize existing coping strategies while developing new pathways for increasing competency, functioning, and self esteem. We believe that everyone can be successful and have a better quality of life.

My career has followed many paths building inclusive communities prior to becoming a licensed psychologist. I provide a welcoming place for clients to explore and manage life's challenges and concerns, such as stress and anxiety as well as spiritual, religious, or existential questions. As a neuropsychologist, I offer comprehensive evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults. I also work collaboratively with parents and school staff to promote children's full academic, social, and emotional potential. I often use a Jungian approach to gain balance and well-being by appreciating strengths and less developed parts of the self.

Aubrey utilizes a holistic view while embracing each persons unique experiences and individuality. Many of us feel overwhelmed, stuck, stressed, anxious, worried, angry, hopeless, or sad at times. Sometimes we struggle with changes like moving, having a baby, starting school, starting a new job, or losing a loved one (pets included). Some of us have had distressing experiences or something traumatic happen. Or perhaps we are having difficulty in a relationship with family, friends, dating, partner, or spouse. Aubrey works with you to find the most effective techniques and skills to support in facing challenges and finding relief.

Life is a journey! The past few years have been a whirlwind of emotion with so much loss, change, and uncertainty. Finding a soft place to land and making sense of life and so many unknown feelings can be challenging. Awareness of what you need is the first step, and I will be present, to listen and guide you back to your chosen path. It is never too late to restart or go in a different direction and no one needs to do that alone.

In therapy, I provide individuals with the space to process the challenges they are facing and help them to identify and change the barriers impeding growth (unhelpful thinking styles, behaviors, relationship patterns, etc). I utilize interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, and offer flexibility to meet people where they are and address individual needs. In my practice, I currently work with adolescents (13-17) and adults (18-60) and my overall goal for family therapy is to improve communication, understanding, and connection between family members.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and a Certified Group Psychotherapist with over 12 years experience providing individual, group, and family therapy. I work with adolescents and adults of all ages who struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, decision-making, work/school achievement, and/or making behavioral changes. Drawing from multiple theoretical approaches (psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive behavioral; relational, mindfulness, etc.), I provide the opportunity to identify, explore, and work through challenges and desires in a safe and supportive environment.

My approach to therapy is one of empowerment and self-discovery. I emphasize working with individual, couples and families in a collaborative environment to help them realize their inner strength and resiliency. With the use of self-exploration and mindfulness techniques clients discover how to overcome and work through the issues or areas of need that are currently affecting them. I place equal emphasis on the individual, as well as the systems in our lives and how the two of them combine to shape the person we are today.

I love helping clients who feel stuck with anxiety, depression, or trauma become “unstuck.” In my therapy space, I strive to create a supportive environment for people to explore their emotions – and the experiences that shaped those emotions. With individuals, couples, and families, I work collaboratively to understand how previous dynamics, especially with families of origin, contribute to their current thoughts and coping skills. When clients understand how their past relationships influence their current selves, they are better able to build new futures, with greater self-acceptance, growth, new skills, and overall happiness.
