Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I am a clinician at our Boston – South End clinic who provides therapy services!
The needs of an ideal client would be someone who is wanting to explore and find out more of themselves to improve their functioning and gain a deeper insight to their current functioning. Perhaps they are facing major transitions in life, and they are wanting to find ways to cope while learning why they are having a certain response. Or perhaps they are struggling with depression or other mood disorders that are keeping them from participating in their life. Their goals would be improving self-awareness and self-exploration.
My modality utilizes mindfulness as outlined in Buddhist psychology. I also offer client-centered therapy, centering the client to encourage empowerment in their own lives. I offer practice in staying in the present, and learning to sit with one’s own feelings rather than pushing it away.
I would like my patients to know that I take a holistic approach to healing. I am empathetic, compassionate, and believe in looking at people in their own contexts. I take intersectionality and cultural environments of my clients into consideration.
