About

I view therapy as an active process on the part of the client and the therapist, set within the context of a relationship built on trust, vulnerability, and curiosity. My clients may be seeking to develop greater personal agency and authenticity in their lives. They may want to clarify their values and life direction or better understand and manage their emotional lives, resolve self-defeating behavior patterns, or foster meaningful relationships. I often work with clients who are living their lives in environments which demand consistent excellence in performance and who may, as a result, have distinct needs and challenges.

I use a variety of empirically supported treatments, including process-based cognitive behavior, interpersonal psychodynamic, and compassion-focused therapies. My theoretical orientation is informed by neuropsychological, existential, feminist, and learning theories.

I am an Instructor in Psychology at Harvard Medical School and Attending Psychologist within the Division of Sports Medicine at Boston Children’s Hospital. I completed my postdoctoral training at McLean Hospital. I integrate my vantage as a former elite professional ballet dancer and my research examining factors of psychological resilience.
