Catalyst Psychology

Women's Mental Health Collective Since 1970 the Women's Mental Health Collective has been providing psychotherapy to a broad community of people in the Somerville, Cambridge, and greater Boston, Massachusetts area. We see psychotherapy as a relationship in which exploration of one's inner life and interpersonal world can take place, creating possibilities for self acceptance and change. We are aware that we have been shaped and constrained by a society in which some groups have more power than others. At the same time, we believe that people have the capacity for growth and connectedness, and that therapy can help people find more effective and satisfying ways of living.

Through a therapeutic relationship with my patients, I intend to deliver high quality of care by utilizing psychoanalytic approach. I completed my Doctoral of Clinical Psychoanalysis and also Master's of Psychoanalytical Counseling at the Boston Graduate School of Psychoanalysis. In my practice, through psychoanalytical perspective, I work with individuals experiencing such issues as psychosexual concerns, relationship and intimacy, anxiety and depression, grief, phobias, life transitions, and psychosomatic disorders. Since 2009, I have been working with individuals in a wide range of ages, and from diverse ethnic, cultural, sexual-orientation and socio-economic backgrounds.
