Individual Therapy in Cambridge, MA & New York, NY.

Does it ever feel like you’re just “hovering” above your life? Not living it as fully as possible?

You’ve accomplished many of your goals-education, career, finances.  On paper, it all looks good. But inside, you feel like you don’t know yourself or maybe you just aren’t happy.

Maybe your relationships aren’t what you hoped they would be.  You don’t feel a real sense of purpose or direction at work. You know that things could be better, but you’re unsure how to get from where you are to where you’d like to be.

I believe you are capable of far more than you realize.

I want you to know that it’s possible to meet your true potential, and individual therapy can help.

With over 25 years of experience, I have training in a variety of approaches and a foundation in psychoanalytic psychotherapy.

Unlike the common stereotype of this approach, I am active in the session, giving you feedback and advice if the moment calls for it.  You will know I’m right there with you every step of the way.

“What is psychoanalytic psychotherapy?”


I am an “insight-oriented therapist,” which means  I excel at helping my clients work through unresolved inner conflicts that arise from past dysfunctional relationships.  Through our work together, my clients report a decrease in symptoms like loneliness, depression, and anxiety.  Additionally, working with me, you may develop deeper self-awareness and better understand your motives and long-term desires. I offer help in taking better care of yourself and living a healthier, more fulfilling life both personally and professionally.
