I'm a psychotherapist in private practice in Northampton, Massachusetts specializing in Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) and mindfulness approaches. I work with adults, couples and teens concerned with a range of issues, including depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma, relationship problems, life decisions, creative and spiritual struggles, and concerns about sex and sexuality, loss and illness.
In my experience, everyone has parts of themselves that conflict. Getting to know these internal mind states can lead the way to inner healing, personal empowerment, and greater harmony with oneself and others. I also offer clinical supervision for students and therapists, particularly in IFS and mindfulness approaches. I work with clients in-person or through secure video.

Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) is an approach to therapy that views each person as consisting of multiple "parts."
Each of us contains different and sometimes conflicting aspects that may manifest as mental voices, feelings or personality states.
IFS also sees each person as having a "Self, " a harmonizing core, that when present, allows the "parts" to function optimally, without debilitating conflict.
Most of us, due to difficult experiences in our lives, have vulnerable parts that are hidden and defended by protector parts.

Sessions are 50 minutes.
Most clients are seen once a week in the beginning, but it is sometimes helpful to meet twice weekly.
Clients who are feeling better may benefit from meeting every other week for a limited period.
The number of sessions depends on your current needs.
The length of time a client is in therapy depends on the nature of the problem and goals.
Some clients have a very specific problem that can be worked through in a set course of therapy.
For others, therapy is an on going learning process, and they choose to attend for a longer period.
