Psychologist
In-Person & Online
Wellesley, MA

Hello! I am a licensed psychologist with 20+ years of experience who works with children, adolescents, and adults across the lifespan. I have a specialty in college mental health and was on staff at Emerson College for many years. I enjoy working with students from schools across Massachusetts, and have a good understanding of college life at Wellesley, Boston College, Boston University, Brandeis, Tufts, and UMass (Amherst and Boston) in particular. I'm open to learning about the specifics of other school environments that interact with your wellness and mental health. People describe me as deeply empathic, authentic, and down to earth. I strive to accompany my clients on their personal journey, providing support along with gentle challenging in order to help you strengthen coping skills, address acute and chronic symptoms, and empower you to live your best life in the present moment. I believe that effective therapy starts with a trusting relationship that involves collaboration, warmth, and humor. I integrate a relational-cultural perspective with psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and dialectical-behavioral theories to provide evidence-based treatment for clients. I work particularly well with students who are struggling with anxiety, identity concerns, and relationships. Contact me for a brief phone call to see if we might be a good fit to work together. Of note, my practice is a hybrid of telehealth and in-person at this time.

Psychiatrist

Wellesley, MA

I am a Board Certified Psychiatrist and I draw from my 10+ years of experience in College Mental Health to provide care to students preparing for and managing the mental health challenges of college. I strongly believe in evaluating and treating the whole person and in meeting you where you are with a goal of helping you find the path to your best possible self. I have a particular interest in anxiety related disorders and utilize a holistic approach to managing anxiety and helping students optimize wellness. I incorporate skills from CBT, ACT, and Mindfulness into my therapy practice. I utilize medication management if and when indicated to optimize treatment. Due to my limited office hours, I am not equipped to treat conditions that could require urgent and immediate care and thus if you are struggling with chronic or treatment-resistant resistant mood disorders, psychotic disorders, personality disorders, addictions, severe eating disorders, or chronic suicidality, I recommend you seek care through a health system or provider that offers more services suited to best meet your needs.

With 35 plus years of experience, I do individual and group psychotherapy with young adults, mainly college students. Some of the concerns that I work with most are: anxiety, dealing with stress, depression, relational growth with parents, relationship concerns, self-injury, the coming out process, sexual assault and childhood history of abuse and bereavement. My approach is relaxed, authentic and validating. Let's recognize all of your feelings and qualities and not label you in a pejorative way. I have a solid background, am well trained and value you as my collaborator here.

I approach each client with a wide angle view–considering all the factors that contribute to a client’s presenting concerns. For those interested in traditional  psychotherapy, I draw from 20+ years of experience using a range of therapeutic interventions (psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, mindfulness focused) to offer individual and parent support services.  In recent years I have been expanding my expertise and services to include other holistic modalities, specifically biofield tuning, which has allowed options for using sound and energy focused work to address emotional issues. For interested clients, I weave together the benefits of psychotherapy with biofield tuning to create a unique healing experience.

Wellesley, MA

As individuals or in the context of a relationship, we are always trying to make meaning of our lives, decide what is essential to us, and think about the path we are on. Of course, in life there are transitions and challenges along the way which interfere. One can become affected emotionally and can get lost for a time, or feel disillusioned, upset or stuck. In our relationships, we experience conflict and communication struggles, and sometimes get locked into repeated and unwanted patterns. One might ask: "Am I living the life I want; is there something more for me? How do I change? Therapy can be a way to understand the emotions we have, the life transitions we experience and the thoughts we linger on as our lives and relationships evolve and develop. Beyond understanding, therapy’s intent is to support and prompt change and to help you sort through these challenges in your own unique way. Collaboration will guide our work together. I am an interactive, direct and reflective therapist who brings curiosity, humor and respect for the complexity of the issues individuals face. Change is difficult to achieve; my job is to help you utilize and build your resources to accomplish the goals you seek. Having over 30 years of clinical experience offers strategies and tools to share.

Counselor

Natick, MA

I work with older teens and young adults who are typically struggling with more than one thing that leads to feeling really big emotions. A common co-occurrence is ADHD/Anxiety, but it could be any combination - mood disorder and autism, social anxiety and feeling angry all the time...having more than one thing at a time makes it more difficult to figure out what to do about those big emotions, which is where I come in. I help figure out what's going on, what are some tools that can help those emotions, and how you can start recognizing when that surge of emotion is coming before it becomes unmanageable.
