If you're on my website it's likely you're looking for an individual or couples therapist. Choosing a therapist that you feel comfortable with can be challenging. It's my hope that these pages will provide some information about who I am, my clinical practice and the perspectives that inform my practice.

I graduated from Boston University with a Masters' Degree in Social Work in 1995. Clinically, I am a fearless, empathic, and engaged psychotherapist committed to working deeply with the people I see in my practice. I hold a respectful and curious approach to difference while searching for similarities and shared experience that allows me to connect deeply with clients.
Supervision for sex therapy certification: Certification as a sex therapist through AASECT requires an intense course of study requiring a minimum of 160 hours of training in basic human sexuality, sexuality throughout the lifespan, sexual dysfunction, mental health, substance use and abuse, relationship dynamics, and gender identity and expression.
Couples therapy is a form of counseling that focuses on improving honesty, trust and the relationship between partners. When working with couples I focus on relationship dynamics, the impact that the family of origin and past relationships may contribute to the presenting concern, patterns of communication and how the relationship manages conflict and intimacy.
People interested in improving their relationship to sexuality are often left scratching their heads trying to understand what sex therapy is and what a sex therapist does. This lack of understanding is compounded by our cultures uneasy relationship with sexuality and pleasure. Sex therapists are trained psychotherapists.
