About

As a trauma specialist and former Program Director at McLean Hospital, I have gained deep respect for clients' painful struggles as well as for their strength, resilience, and capacity for growth. My approach is fundamentally gentle, compassionate and collaborative. Are you curious about yourself and wish to understand how your past informs present relationships, emotions, and behavior? Join me to build insight and coping strategies, reduce the overwhelming impact of your symptoms and your past, and build a more present, empowered, regulated and satisfying life, reducing suffering, shame, and ineffective thoughts and behaviors. I have extensive experience treating Complex PTSD and related issues (e.g. dissociation, mood, anxiety, and personality disorders) in a variety of treatment settings. My work is individualized, thoughtful, and always carefully paced to maximize clients' functioning.
