Individual Therapy
I work with individuals to help them align their lives with their values. So often depression, anxiety, and trauma can keep us from engaging in the aspect of our lives that give us the most fulfillment. I help individuals to not be consumed by unhelpful thoughts and emotions, and move towards their own goals. My practice is rooted in all evidence based treatments, and I work collaboratively with my clients to tailor a plan that will best fit their needs. I work with individuals who are located in NY or MA.
About Me
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, and I completed my doctoral training at William James College in Newton, MA. Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with diverse clients seeking relief from a wide range of presentations, including anxiety, depression, childhood and sexual trauma, chronic illness, and issues related to identity. I know that for many people, these symptoms keep them from connecting with important aspects of their lives. In therapy we will work together to help you re-engage with what matters most.
Practicing from a multicultural lens, I integrate evidence-based treatments, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindful Self-Compassion to tailor plans for each client. I work collaboratively with individuals to help align their lives with their values, and to not get consumed by thoughts and behaviors that are not working for them.
I have extensive experience working with LGBTQ and gender diverse individuals, and provide training on these topics at the local and national level. While I enjoy working with individuals from across the lifespan, I have particular specialization in working with young adults, ages 17 to 35 years old. Prior to working in private practice, I taught on the faculty of a family medicine residency, where I saw clients for issues related to trauma, chronic illness, and insomnia.
