Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
I provide psychiatry services at our Harvard Square clinic.
There is no human being beyond hope. No matter what tragedies you may face in life, change becomes possible when you have the courage and support to explore your inner world within a therapeutic relationship. As a former engineer, I changed careers with one goal in mind: to help others overcome suffering in the pursuit of good, meaningful lives. My practice philosophy is rooted in existential and psychoanalytic traditions that will help you clarify your values, gain mastery over longstanding patterns of suffering, and free up the emotional energy needed to pursue a life that you would be thrilled about- however you define it.
My depth-oriented approach seeks to address root causes of suffering while also providing present-day relief through medication management and the development of skills that leave you confident in facing life’s daily challenges. Earning my doctorate from Boston College, I’ve received specialized training in OCD, substance use, insomnia, and mood disorders.
While diagnoses can provide a useful frame for thinking about common sources of suffering, I hold a stalwart commitment to honoring you as a wholly unique individual within our treatment. If you’re looking for someone to walk with you as you move from suffering, toward the pursuit of a good, meaningful life, please reach out- the world needs you.
