Are you struggling with relationship conflicts in your romantic or platonic dynamics, perhaps you’re weighed down by family expectations, coping with defense mechanisms that once served you, but now fall short, or you’re distressed by unresolved trauma?

Hi, I'm Stacey, and I have been a therapist for more than twenty years. I work with teens, young adults, older adults, couples, and families, and over that time I have walked alongside people facing just about every kind of life and mental health challenge. My approach is holistic, which means we look at how your mental, physical, and spiritual health connect, because that fuller picture often opens up solutions that are hard to find any other way. I will meet you with dignity, warmth, and respect, and I will hold a safe space where you can explore, grow, and figure out what balance looks like for you. Many people arrive feeling stuck or in distress, and I like to remind my clients that even in the middle of a struggle there is real room to grow into the best version of yourself. I genuinely love listening to people's stories and helping them move toward their goals. I see clients through WellQor, where I provide therapy entirely online, so we can meet from wherever you feel most comfortable. If you would like to begin working together, visit the WellQor website and fill out the Get Started form. A patient liaison will then text you with the next steps and help get you on my schedule. I cannot wait to learn more about you.

I help bright, dynamic students deal with the anxiety and overwhelm that can creep up as you're out there doing what you always thought you were supposed to be doing. You work really hard but it's getting harder to hold it all together as you wrestle with the doubts and the stress. Your relationships might be feeling less than happy and fulfilling lately, or you're just plain overwhelmed. On the outside, you look like you have it all together - but that doesn't make you feel OK on the inside. I help people like you learn how to finally feel good about themselves, balance school work and self care, build strong relationships, manage anxiety and stress, and feel less alone and overwhelmed. You're not out of options - in fact, therapy could be the start of a great new chapter in your life.

I help college students, graduate students, and university faculty manage stress, cope with painful emotions, and navigate school, work, and relationships. Higher education offers a huge opportunity for growth and self-discovery, but it also presents unique stressors and challenges. In addition to treating anxiety and depression, I work regularly with issues of perfectionism, peer comparison, academic pressure, and burnout. I also help clients build healthy friendships and partnerships, explore identity issues, adjust to new situations and life phases, and examine possible career directions. I believe that great therapy is tailored to meet clients’ needs and goals, so I integrate a variety of approaches into my work, including insight-oriented methods, mindfulness practices, and cognitive behavioral techniques. Depending on what a client brings to each session, we might work on specific tools to address a current problem, examine the origins of a long-standing pattern, or explore some of life’s biggest questions together. I believe in the inherent resiliency of my clients, and I empower them to tap into their inner strengths and resources. At the foundation of my practice is always the relationship with my clients, which is built on mutual trust and active collaboration. My professional training includes degrees in Psychology (BA, Harvard University), Social Work (MSW, University of Chicago), and Higher Education (EdD, Northeastern University), along with experience in university counseling, academic and career advising, community mental health, and international education. Clients describe me as authentic, attentive, compassionate, and dedicated. While I am not in-network for any insurance providers, many university students have out-of-network benefits that they can use to seek insurance reimbursement for our sessions. I am happy to assist clients in this process. Please visit my website for more information. I am based in Cambridge MA and licensed across MA, NY, DC, and CT.

~Helping college and graduate students move beyond anxiety, overwhelm, and self-doubt into clarity, resilience, and deeper self-understanding~ College can look exciting from the outside — but many students find themselves quietly struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, self-doubt, or a sense that something just isn’t quite right. You might be: Feeling anxious, burned out, or constantly “on edge” Overthinking everything — relationships, decisions, your future Navigating identity, independence, or family pressure Struggling socially or feeling alone even when surrounded by people Dealing with health challenges, stress-related symptoms, or emotional exhaustion Wanting to understand yourself more deeply — not just “cope,” but actually change I work especially well with thoughtful, self-aware college and graduate students who are ready to go beyond surface-level coping and really understand what’s driving their patterns. My approach is integrative and mind-body focused, drawing from: EMDR (for processing past experiences that still impact you) DBT (for emotional regulation and practical tools) Nervous system / mind-body work (understanding anxiety, stress, and physical symptoms) Insight-oriented therapy (helping you make sense of yourself on a deeper level) I aim to create a space that is both warm and real — where you feel understood, but also gently challenged to grow. This work isn’t just about getting through college — it’s about helping you build a foundation for a more grounded, confident, and authentic life.
