I offer therapy that helps you move forward. Whether you’re transitioning to a new phase of life, wanting to regain a sense of joy in relationships, or looking for more resilience in the face of everyday challenges, we work together to understand what’s lying beneath the stress and anxiety you’re carrying—and then work to resolve it. My evidence-based approach moves beyond surface-level coping mechanisms to create change that lasts, helping you find steadiness through the inevitable transitions, so you can step into a more grounded, confident, and connected life.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Experiential Therapy Involves hands-on activities to bring emotions into the present moment. It helps clients process feelings more deeply than through conversation alone.
- Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
- Relational Psychotherapy Emphasizes the healing power of the therapist-client relationship. It uses trust and safety as a foundation for change.
Approach Description: I earned my master’s from Smith College, one of the nation's oldest programs, renowned for its integration of rigorous clinical training with the depth-oriented tradition. I also earned a PhD in History and Social Sciences from the École des Hautes Études in Paris, as well as a master’s degree in History from the Université Lumière in Lyon. Having lived and worked in the U.S., France, and Italy, I am particularly aware of the challenges of finding connection and stability in unfamiliar places. I am excited by the work of therapy, and how it provides a space for the gradual process of becoming truly yourself.
