My philosophy is very Jungian-based. I offer a masculine perspective to help those in learning about how to help relate to themselves better and then offer better relationships with others. My work is centered on the truth that when we see reality we are set free. The matrix keeps you stuck and enslaved. My mission is to help people free themselves so they can connect to their true nature and feel more fulfilled. I use health, nature, sexuality, and spirit to help others.
I am a behavioral health clinician specializing in mood disorders, anxiety, trauma‐related conditions, and the emotional complexities that arise alongside chronic medical and cognitive challenges. My practice blends clinical precision with a calm, supportive presence, helping individuals feel understood, grounded, and empowered throughout their care.
Don’t just treat symptoms—but listen for the story behind them.
Integration of medical, psychiatric, and psychosocial threads into a coherent and dignified plan.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Boston
Finding OCD therapists in Boston starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based approach for OCD, and many people also look for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, and related stress. Not all therapists who list OCD have specific ERP training, so review each bio for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Boston has many mental health care options across neighborhoods like Back Bay, Cambridge, Fenway, and the South End, which can make it harder to narrow your search. If you want in-person OCD therapy near you, consider commute time, transit access, and office location. If you prefer virtual sessions, you may have more scheduling options across Massachusetts. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how clearly they describe their approach to OCD therapy.
Therapy in Boston can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Headway helps you compare OCD therapists in Boston who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
