About Me

I relocated temporarily to NY state in 2022, where I remain at least for now with the possibility of a return to MA. My MA practice wished to come with me; thus 95% of my practice is composed of clients based in MA. I am licensed in both MA and NY, which allows me to see my MA clients, and also to see my NY clients. I accept referrals for both MA and NY, and practice virtually. I am occasionally in MA to meet with clients.

Education & Experience

PhD in Clinical Psychology. Originally trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy. Later, taught cognitive-behavioral therapy to the Cambridge Health Alliance Psychiatry fellows through a past clinical faculty appointment at Harvard Medical School. Certified in EMDR, was first trained in 2009. Level-II trained in AEDP, a highly relational model of healing. My focus is always integrative, tailoring the work to the particular and unique needs of the client.
