Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
My therapy approach is rooted in psychodynamic and relational theories. I also incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and other therapeutic approaches to meet my clients’ unique needs. I believe in each person’s potential for healing and empowerment, informing my approach to building a supportive and open therapeutic relationship. Self-understanding and healing can be facilitated by exploring the varied forces that shape us, including familial, cultural, societal, and historical experiences. I work with couples, families, and individuals ranging from adolescence through late adulthood. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity issues, and relationship challenges. I have extensive experience supporting young adults, parents, pregnant people and individuals traversing various life transitions. As a queer clinician, I enjoy working with the LGBTQ community. I strive to be an ally for communities of color and have joined efforts in my community to promote racial justice. I completed the Psychodynamic Couple and Family Institute of New England postgraduate training program and am currently a clinical supervisor at Clinical Alliance Services, LLC.
