Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychologist maintaining a small telehealth private practice in MA seeing individuals 18+ (note: I do not see couples at this time). I also currently teach and advise students who are training to become psychologists. I received my PhD in clinical psychology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2015. I completed my predoctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship at McLean Hospital & Harvard Medical School in 2017. I speak both English and French.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am primarily trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for mood and anxiety disorders. CBT includes a variety of approaches which I will be happy to discuss with you so we can build a personalized treatment plan together. Among other interventions, I am especially interested in mindfulness and self-compassion to promote both acceptance and change during difficult times.

What you can expect from our first session

I am to create a warm and supportive atmosphere for our work together. I structure our sessions with collaborative discussions of specific themes and strategies. I will suggest exercises and practices you can do at home to reinforce our work. I also check in regularly to ask for your feedback about how treatment is going.

*Feel free to message me to schedule a 15-min phone consultation to determine if I would be a good fit for your current needs.
