Expert Psychotherapy Services in Lexington, MA
I am a licensed psychologist in private practice in Lexington, MA, providing mental health care to adults in individual and couple therapy since 1988. I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Boston University and a Masters degree in Counseling and Consulting Psychology from Harvard University. My clinical training includes placements at Brookline Community Mental Health Center, McLean Hospital, and Harvard Community Health Plan, where I developed expertise in psychodynamic psychotherapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques.Over the years, I have integrated cognitive-behavioral theory, attachment theory, and self-compassion practices into my work, emphasizing a humanistic, client-centered approach. I remain current with field developments through continuing education and have a particular interest in the mind-body connection and its role in emotional healing. My practice is grounded in listening carefully, participating actively, and fostering a compassionate therapeutic relationship where clients feel secure and empowered to explore their challenges.

Individual Therapy
Tailored one-on-one sessions address anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and personal growth. Using cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and mindfulness techniques, clients develop tools to break negative patterns and build self-compassion. The approach emphasizes understanding early experiences and fostering emotional resilience through a collaborative, client-led process.
Couples Counseling
Guided support for couples navigating intimacy issues, communication challenges, and relationship distress. Integrating attachment theory, sessions focus on strengthening emotional bonds, resolving conflicts, and creating secure partnerships. Techniques include mindfulness and dialogue exercises to enhance mutual understanding and connection.

Sessions address emotional pain through psychodynamic and mindfulness approaches, helping clients integrate their experiences into a healing narrative.
