-
I am located at 185 Devonshire St, Suite 701, Boston, MA 02110. My office is located near Downtown Crossing and State Street, easily accessible by the MBTA’s red, blue, and orange lines.
I see clients virtually across Massachusetts, Maine, and Florida.
-
I see clients in person on Tuesdays in Boston and virtually Wednesday through Friday from 8 AM–3 PM. I do not offer sessions on evenings, weekends, or state and federal holidays.
-
I don’t offer hybrid therapy at this time. Because I have limited in-person spots and pay for an office space and commute into Boston each week, I reserve those sessions for clients who are only able or prefer to be seen in person. If you’re seeking in-person therapy, sessions will need to remain in person, with rare exceptions for emergencies or severe weather.
-
If you need to cancel or reschedule, please provide at least 48 hours' notice to avoid a $200 fee (not covered by insurance). Exceptions may be made in cases of emergencies or illness at my discretion.
Sessions are 55 minutes. If you arrive 10 minutes late or more, it will be considered a no-show, and the $200 fee will apply. This fee will be charged regardless of whether you notify me in advance.
-
Yes! While I specialize in working with men with body image and eating concerns, I welcome and work with people of all identities and backgrounds.
-
Yes. While I aim to provide support to a wide range of clients, there are some concerns that are outside my scope of practice. I do not work with individuals seeking therapy for OCD, bipolar disorder, substance use, psychosis, or personality disorders, as these issues often require specialized treatment. Additionally, I do not work with clients who have current or anticipated legal involvement, are actively considering suicide or engaging in self-harm behaviors, or who have been psychiatrically hospitalized within the past 3 years.
If any of the above criteria apply to you, I encourage you to seek out other providers.
-
The first session is an intake appointment, and while it won’t feel like a typical therapy session, it’s an important step in getting to know you. We’ll spend the first few minutes reviewing my practice policies and answering any questions you may have. From there, I’ll ask thoughtful questions about your current and past experiences, relationships, habits, health, and therapy goals. This helps me understand what brings you to therapy and how I can best support you moving forward.
If you’re using insurance or seeking reimbursement, I’m required to assign an initial diagnosis, which may evolve as we progress in treatment.
-
Therapy isn’t a quick fix, and I’m probably not the best fit if you’re looking for short-term, solution-focused work. The clients I work with are often interested in making deeper, lasting changes, which usually takes time and consistency. Most of my clients have been with me for several years. As progress is made, we might shift to biweekly or monthly sessions, and some clients take breaks and return when needed. Ultimately, we’ll decide together what feels most supportive for your growth.
