I warmly welcome individuals of all identities, genders, and backgrounds without prejudice. I work hard to offer a welcoming space in which you can feel safe to speak freely. I specialize in working with transgender, gender-diverse, queer, and gay folks, and I have specialized training from CHA/Harvard Medical School where I also train and supervise fellow therapists on the unique issues of the LGBTQ+ community.
My approach adheres to a case-by-case perspective in which each person is unique and necessitates a distinct treatment trajectory. I have helped numerous clients recover from depression, anxiety and panic, trauma, and make meaningful changes in their lives and relationships.
I look forward to talking to you about how I can help. Please email or call so that we can set up an initial phone consultation.
