Licensed Clinical Psychologist in Boston, MA
With over 25 years of experience as a licensed clinical psychologist, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals, couples, and families achieve emotional well-being through an integrative and personalized approach. My practice combines traditional psychotherapy with holistic methodologies, drawing from the works of renowned theorists like Carl Rogers, Carl Jung, and Abraham Maslow, as well as Eastern practices such as Ayurveda and the Chakra System. I prioritize understanding the root causes of emotional distress to facilitate meaningful healing and growth.My therapeutic style is interactive and collaborative, emphasizing self-awareness, healthy relationships, and purposeful living. I actively encourage self-care practices and work alongside other healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive care. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore challenges, develop coping strategies, and cultivate a life aligned with their values and aspirations.
