About My Clients
Cancer and serious illness can upend your sense of safety, identity, and future. You may be navigating treatment, living with ongoing uncertainty, caring for a loved one, or grieving losses—both visible and invisible. You don’t have to carry this alone. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults facing chronic or life-limiting illness, as well as caregivers coping with anticipatory grief, loss, and bereavement.
My Background and Approach
Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to make sense of what they are going through. Therapy provides space to process these experiences and find ways to heal. I work from an integrative, evidence-based perspective, adapting therapy to each person’s unique needs and circumstances. Our work is collaborative, grounded in compassion, whether we are focusing on coping with illness, navigating caregiving stress, processing grief, or exploring questions about identity and meaning in the context of medical challenges. In addition to my private practice, I am an academic faculty at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School, where I conduct research in psycho-oncology and work clinically with bereaved caregivers. I earned my MA from Columbia University, PhD from the University of Maryland, and completed postdoctoral fellowships at MGH and Dana-Farber/Harvard.
