Welcome!

With over 15 years of experience I specialize in long-term psychotherapy, drawing primarily from Self Psychological theory and integrating mindfulness practices into my work. My therapeutic approach is deeply relational and introspective, focusing on helping people explore how their past experiences-particularly in relationships, sexuality, and cultural identity-shape their current sense of self.

I work with individuals across the lifespan, including older children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I am particularly attuned to issues related to self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. For people who are interested in exploring their personal spirituality, I am here to help and support their exploration. My practice is inclusive and affirming, with a strong commitment to supporting those navigating complex identity dynamics. I offer a safe and nurturing environment to help people explore, process and navigate their internal and relational world. When necessary, I offer supportive behavioral tools/solutions.

My clinical degree is in Mental Health Counseling and I am licensed in Massachusetts. Currently, I study psychoanalysis at the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute and practice contemporary theory. I am a published author and I am enthusiastic about exploring and expanding psychoanalytic literature. In addition, I am a consulting therapist for Beacon Hill Therapy.

I believe an important part of working therapeutically with people is to see and understand the whole person. Sometimes somatic and psychosomatic issues can build, which cause tension and stress to the body. I have received Reiki Master level training and I offer reiki sessions for those who may find this to be beneficial. This work will be practiced separately from psychotherapy.
