About My Clients
I am particularly passionate about offering therapy to activists seeking support nurturing mental health while active in social movements, people living with anxiety, and people living with chronic pain. However, I would be honored to support you in your journey toward mental health and wellness, whatever challenges you may be facing.
My Background and Approach
Prior to working as a therapist, I spent six years as a social worker supporting unhoused community members and older adults in the Boston area. I am active within Boston area anti-racist struggles, and I understand my work as a therapist to be a part of my commitment to advancing these struggles, rather than separate from it. My approach draws from therapeutic and healing modalities including Internal Family Systems, Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and Somatics. My therapy practice is trauma-informed, anti-racist, and welcoming of all gender and sexual identities.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am active within Boston area anti-racist struggles, and I understand my work as a therapist to be a part of my commitment to advancing these struggles, rather than separate from it. Capitalism is making us sick. Racism is making us sick. Colonialism, ableism, transphobia, sexism, and other forms of violence and oppression are making us sick. Therapy as a profession often focuses on helping people develop the strength and wellness needed to better navigate these and other conditions we live under. However, many among us yearn not only to heal as individuals in order to better withstand the conditions that shape our daily existence, but also to transform these conditions to create a more just world that better meets our collective needs. Therapists need to understand and be responsive to these and other priorities and commitments that organizers and activists (and many who might not identify as either) bring to therapy, in order to effectively support their mental health.
