Great to meet you!

I provide trauma-informed and strength-based psychodynamic therapy to adults seeking to understand the personal, intergenerational, and political factors impacting their mental health. I support my clients in the process of healing from past experiences so that they are able to feel their emotions more fully, develop healthier relationships, and make empowered choices about their futures. I specialize in LGBTQ+ and BIPOC-affirming care, couple's therapy, and perinatal mental health. I work with folks who have experienced trauma and have gained specialized training in trauma therapy at the Victims of Violence program at Cambridge Health Alliance in MA.

My approach to therapy

I use a relational approach to support my clients in becoming more curious about their inner lives, more in touch with their hopes and desires, and clearer about the barriers they face in meeting their goals. I believe therapy is about helping us to feel more emotionally resilient in the face of any obstacle. Overall, my main goal is to create a safe relationship so that you feel you have true support on your healing journey.

What you can expect from me

In our first sessions, we will get to know each other, set clear goals, and answer any questions you have about the therapy process. We will work together to find a balance between working toward specific goals and making space for what emerges week to week.
