Therapy Services

couch_1I am a clinical psychologist in private practice in the Dartmouth College and Upper Valley region of Vermont and New Hampshire.

My work promotes personal transformation and growth, increased self-knowledge and awareness, and a deeper capacity for connection.

Having been trained in a broad range of effective therapeutic styles, I am able to offer patients the therapeutic environment best suited for them and their issues, often weaving together several approaches. The goal of our therapy is relief, with increased self-awareness and improved skills for coping with life’s difficulties, which can be achieved through many avenues. We will work together to confirm which components of therapy are a good fit for you, and we will check in from time to time to discuss how therapy is working. Some preferred approaches are Psychodynamic Therapy, Mindfulness Training, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Interpersonal Psychotherapy.

My Specialties

I work with adults, young adults, older adolescents, and older adults. I do both individual and couples therapy. I work extensively with college and graduate students (my office is 15-20 minutes by car from Dartmouth College).

I specialize in working with body dissatisfaction, extrication from diet culture, chronic dieting, body liberation, overeating, and eating disorders, and I am a Health at Every Size, intuitive eating, and mindfulness practitioner. I also provide consultation and support for parents of an eating disordered child in treatment elsewhere.

I also specialize in therapy with individuals and couples exploring Polyamory, Nonmonogamy, and Open Relationships, whether dating and establishing relationships nonmonogamously or transitioning preexisting monogamous relationships into this new framework.

For those who struggle with clutter and disorganization, I specialize in offering specific strategies to make immediate change.

I have extensive experience working with Black people, as well as issues related to multiracial families.

I have a special interest in issues related to adoption.

I work with college students and adults with ADD/ADHD, developing strategies to create organization and success.

I do therapy with people struggling with issues related to a range of situations:

  • polyamory/nonmonogamy/open relationships
  • decluttering & organization
  • self-esteem
  • social difficulties
  • emotional sensitivity
  • life transitions
  • adoption
  • race
  • spirituality
  • sexuality
  • LGBTQ
  • identity
  • postpartum depression
  • early parenting difficulties
  • mood swings
  • stress management
  • infertility
  • grief & loss
  • depression
  • anxiety
  • insomnia
  • eating disorders
  • body dissatisfaction
  • chronic dieting
  • overeating
  • ADD/ADHD
  • dysfunctional relationship patterns

We’ll target your immediate concerns first. My patients tend to feel relief in the first few sessions, then often choose to continue therapy in order to better address the underlying cause of their issues. Continued therapy leads to healthier patterns, a more vibrant, satisfying life, and improved capacity for happiness and calm.
