Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Massachusetts

My goal is to listen, understand, and collaborate with you to address your concerns and help you achieve your personal goals. Each of us has our own story and sources of pain, and together, we can explore the root causes of your challenges with care and curiosity. I aim to create a non-judgmental and supportive environment where you can feel safe, understood, and empowered to work toward deeper understanding and lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally sensitive. I support clients in exploring the emotional patterns, life experiences, relationships, and stressors that may be contributing to anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, or feeling stuck. Therapy is not about judging where you are; it is about helping you understand yourself more clearly and build healthier ways of coping, communicating, and healing. Serving clients in Boston, Cambridge, Brookline, Newton, and across Massachusetts through virtual therapy.

I help clients explore what it means to live in deeper alignment with their sense of self, desires, values, and capacity for pleasure. My work is rooted in the belief that feeling fully alive includes reconnecting with the parts of ourselves that may have been shaped, limited, or silenced by expectations of who we “should” be. Together, we explore sexuality, pleasure, identity, relationships, and self-expression as meaningful parts of the healing process. When we talk about sex, we often open the door to many other areas of life — intimacy, boundaries, confidence, vulnerability, joy, and personal freedom. My approach is mindful, present-centered, and compassionate. I support clients in tuning into what is happening in the here and now, noticing what their experiences can teach them, and using that awareness to move toward a life that feels more authentic, connected, and fully their own.

I have had the privilege of working in education and counseling psychology for over 20 years in a variety of roles, including practitioner, supervisor, director, and co-chair of a non-profit Perinatal Mental Health Coalition. I continue to practice and to fuel my passion by supporting adults in need of individual therapy to help cope with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, and trauma. I also have extensive training and experience supporting couples to improve intimacy, communication and connection. In addition to this, I have a specialization in supporting women dealing with postpartum depression/anxiety, infertility, perinatal loss, and traumatic pregnancy/birth as well as supporting overall maternal wellness and women's health. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, and Mindfulness with a person-centered, strengths based approach to support individualized goals.
