About Us

" Therapy is a journey traveled with a guide, witness, and companion. Over 30+ years I have accompanied individuals, couples, adult children and their parents as they seek to solve problems, cope with transitions, create more satisfying relationships, improve self-esteem or heal from deep and traumatic hurts and losses. I am active, warm and collaborative, and work to create a safe and empowering relationship for exploring wishes and fears, strengths, goals and the obstacles that we encounter in meeting lifes challenges. Clients tell me that I am a careful and accurate listener and have a calming, supportive presence. ", I work in many modalities, collaborating in problem solving, coaching, relaxation, or mind/body approaches. Coming from a psychodynamic background, I have studied many mindfulness-based and trauma-related therapies, culminating in certification in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, which provides a powerful framework for creating new, positive experience and patterns . , I was a long-term faculty member of the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology (now William James College), teaching clinical seminars and courses in the theory and practice of supervision, and have supervised clinical practice and doctoral research.
