If your child, teen, or young adult is struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, or behavioral challenges, therapy can help them build the skills they need to feel more confident and capable. I was trained at Harvard Medical School’s McLean Hospital and use evidence-based treatments to support clients with OCD, eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I also work closely with parents through coaching and support women navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and fertility challenges. My goal is to help clients develop practical tools that improve relationships, build resilience, and support lasting well-being.

As a clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience, I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families who have been impacted by complex trauma. We are shaped most profoundly by our earliest and closest relationships, and when those relationships have been fraught with chronic adversity – either due to neglect and abuse, or due to unintentional or unavoidable life adversity – we tend to struggle emotionally, behaviorally, and interpersonally with the impact of early life trauma exposure. Treatment is most effective when one is able to find a safe space to identify the root of those struggles.

Navigating life between cultures is complex- whether as an immigrant, international student, or global citizen, and want to reconnect with yourself and build confidence in work and relationships, you're in the right place. You might appear fine on the outside while experiencing internal disconnection or uncertainty about who you truly are. Living between worlds can feel isolating, even when you're surrounded by people. As someone who has lived this experience myself, I understand the grief of leaving home and a familiar identity behind, the pressure to adapt in a new culture, and the lack of sense of belonging.

Finding the right therapist for YOU and the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors associated with positive therapy results. I place primary importance on our relationship providing an atmosphere of safety, warmth and understanding. While I have a wealth of professional and personal knowledge and expertise in individual and family recovery from addictions/compulsive behaviors, family of origin issues and life patterns that prevent authentic living, I do not approach the relationship as an "expert" but rather as a supportive guide who joins you on the journey. I am passionate about all things relational.

Something about your life is nagging at you. It has been begging for your attention for a while.. Part of you has started to think, “life doesn’t have to be like this”. You’re right. You notice your connections just don’t feel as fulfilling as they could be. You find yourself wishing you and the people you care about spent less time on your phones and more time truly connecting. Maybe you feel troubled by something that has happened in your past. You’ve tried to get over it, but but it still has a hold on you. You feel like you’re going through life on high alert for any impending harm or you feel completely shut down and numb.

Maybe you’re the one everyone depends on — capable on the outside, but anxious or overwhelmed underneath. Your mind replays conversations, anticipates worst-case scenarios, or struggles to turn off at night. You may be navigating a difficult relationship, family tension, people-pleasing patterns, or stress that never seems to let up. I work with teen girls, adults, and couples who feel this way. You want relief - not just from anxiety, but from constant pressure. You want healthier boundaries, steadier relationships, and the ability to respond instead of react. Most of all, you want to feel calm, confident, and grounded again.
