I utilize a psychodynamic (insight oriented) approach, integrating relational therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and trauma informed treatments. I also employ tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mentalization Based Therapy, when clinically appropriate. I strongly believe that our identities and backgrounds, including our culture, sexual orientation, and gender identity, play a large role in our development and identity formation. I value clinical relationships built on trust and aim ...

Your emotions are a roller coaster - sometimes high and overwhelming, other times shut down and numb. Maybe there's a part of you that believes you’re inherently flawed — broken, too much, or never quite measuring up. Maybe you battle body image shame, a constant sense of inadequacy, or a voice that tells you to “just get over it.” I specialize in treating anxiety, trauma, PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder. I'll help you heal from the past and equip you with practical tools to manage s...

I’ve been part of the Harvard Medical School system for over a decade, first as a trainee, now as faculty member. I'm trained primarily in psychodynamic therapy, but principles/interventions from other paradigms also inform my work, and I love working with students. Ultimately, the nature of therapy depends on the patient, what they are up against, and their goals. For this reason, the course of therapy is difficult to describe, but I think it only ever works in a context of empathy, respect, an...

Hello, I'm Courtney. I understand that it can be difficult to ask for help, as we may feel embarrassed or uncomfortable being vulnerable. Asking for help requires strength and courage and may be a journey through both darkness and light. It's important to trust the process, sit with our uncomfortable feelings, and accept our emotions for what they are. Vulnerability, shame, and fear may make it difficult to share, but know this is normal as we navigate change. There is a lot to be learned from o...
