Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychologist with over 25 years of experience providing therapy to children, adolescents, college students and parents. I completed my predoctoral training at The Children's Hospital Boston/Harvard Medical School.

Specialties: anxiety disorders including OCD, panic, phobias, separation anxiety, social anxiety, mood disorders, and parenting anxiety.

Special expertise: transition from college to work world; confidence building in adolescents and young adults; handling emotions, relationships, change, stress in college students.

My approach to therapy

I tailor evidence-based treatments to each client's needs. Collaboratively we develop goals and I help you progress toward your goals by offering compassionate support and skilled-based therapeutic tools.

What you can expect from me

I specialize in the use of CBT, ERP (exposure response prevention), mindfulness, ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Emotions). Because I utilize evidence-based treatments our private session work gets translated into activities you will practice in the real world. I offer loyal, steady support. I am committed to helping you meet your goals.
