I believe that much of the potential success of therapy is due to the level of comfort and connection someone experiences with a particular provider. With this belief in mind, I thought it would be helpful to give you some sense of my background and approach to therapy.
After growing up in Connecticut, I attended Boston College where I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology (Summa Cum Laude). I then headed west to Ohio State University where I earned my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and was trained predominantly in Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT is an active approach to therapy where clients are taught to gain a greater awareness of and control over their thoughts and behaviors while changing their emotional responses in the process.
Being a New Englander at heart, I sought to return to the Boston area to complete my clinical internship and postdoctoral fellowship. I was very fortunate to be able to complete both at the Edith Nourse Rogers Memorial VA Medial Center in Bedford, MA. In addition to the excellent clinical training I received at the VA, I also gained a greater appreciation of the sacrifices and dedication of our service men and women. Following my time at the VA, I spent over three years as a psychologist at a private mental health clinic where I worked with individuals and couples suffering from a variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, marital issues, trauma, grief and loss. It was then time to transition to my own private practice in Sudbury where I continue to see individuals and couples coping with these issues as well as those seeking to generally improve their wellbeing and functioning. Since 2000, I have also had the wonderful opportunity of returning to Boston College as an adjunct professor in the Lynch School of Education. It’s truly been a wonderful experience being able to share my knowledge and challenge future members of the mental health field.
My love of learning has always been a constant in my life and I am always looking for new trainings and resources to benefit my clients. One of the things I love most about being a psychologist is that I am constantly learning and being challenged. I also hold very dear the relationships I have been able to develop with my clients and am gratified by seeing them make progress.
While I hope this brief introduction gives you some sense of who I am and how I approach counseling, I understand the best way to see if we would work well together is to meet in person or speak on the phone. I would be happy to do either with you before we formally agree to work together – simply give me a call at (978) 443-5611 and we can set up a time to do so.
