I am a licensed psychologist in private practice in Cambridge, MA. In addition to practice, I am a Clinical Instructor in Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
My training as a psychoanalytic/psychodynamic psychotherapist included a 2-year post-doctoral fellowship in long-term outpatient psychotherapy at Cambridge Hospital/Harvard Medical School. During this time, I was awarded a further fellowship position with the American Psychoanalytic Association.
I completed my pre-doctoral clinical internship at Cambridge Hospital, where I worked in an acute inpatient hospital setting, as well as in an outpatient clinic for adults.
I received my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of Tennessee, where my interests focused on psychological testing, unconscious processes, and the relationship between personality and psychotherapy outcome. My clinical practice was with adults and college students, as well as with adolescents in long-term residential treatment.
I received my B.A. in Philosophy, from Colgate University, in 1993.
I have given a number of presentations related to psychotherapy, personality, and psychological testing at national conferences, including The American Psychological Association's Division of Psychoanalysis (Div 39), The American Psychoanalytic Association, and The Society for Personality Assessment.
I have been practicing psychotherapy and conducting psychological testing in various clinics and hospitals for the past 8 years.
