Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in North Andover, MA

I’m committed to assisting you in moving forward and making changes in your life through empowerment. Often, individuals feel powerless to make needed changes in their life. As a result, they stop believing in themselves, give up and stop taking the risks they need to in order to make change.

Seeking help can feel overwhelming, and finding the right provider matters. I provide a warm, welcoming space where clients can feel heard, respected, and supported. I worked in community health for several years as a bilingual nurse practitioner and place great value in providing culturally competent care.

I offer Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy to individuals seeking a deeper understanding of self. I help people build skills to overcome anxiety, depression and emotional overwhelm. I offer training in mindfulness, which emphasizes the importance of presence and curiosity in the healing process.

I have deep empathy and insight into exploring life’s deepest questions. Clients gain confidence and a sense of improved well-being by coming to understand themselves in a comfortable therapeutic setting. I work with diverse populations and clients beginning at young adulthood.

Life can bring moments that feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming—whether from anxiety, trauma, relationship strain, or loss of direction. You may feel stuck or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating. Therapy offers a safe and supportive space to explore what’s holding you back and create a path toward emotional clarity, healing, and growth. Together, we’ll uncover the “why” behind your challenges and help you move toward a calmer, more balanced, and empowered version of yourself.

My approach combines psychiatry with a whole-person perspective, recognizing how stress, relationships, lifestyle, physical health, and past experiences can all affect emotional wellbeing. I strive to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and supported. I especially value honesty, kindness, and building a genuine connection with the people I work with.
