Many people live their life in survival mode, many accept this for the best that they and life can offer. It is my belief that everyone is capable of experiencing the ability to thrive in life. When we settle for just surviving, we are not truly in control, and we seldom see the outcomes we truly desire in our lives. Surviving can cause you discomfort and sometimes interfere with meaningful relationships, and your sense of achievement. Life can be difficult to manage, tackling it requires the ri...

As an Independently Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I view people through the lens of their intersectional identities, within the greater context of their environment.

“Therapy can be many things: a space for unpacking, for healing, for curiosity, for laughter, for saying things you’ve never said out loud. My goal is to co-create a space where you can bring your full self, including the parts still in process. I work with adults navigating questions of identity, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, race-based stress, relationship challenges, and that deep sense of “something needs to shift.” As a Black woman, I’m particularly drawn to working with those whose...

I’ve been part of the Harvard Medical School system for over a decade, first as a trainee, now as faculty member. I'm trained primarily in psychodynamic therapy, but principles/interventions from other paradigms also inform my work, and I love working with students. Ultimately, the nature of therapy depends on the patient, what they are up against, and their goals. For this reason, the course of therapy is difficult to describe, but I think it only ever works in a context of empathy, respect, an...
