Deciding what to eat can be exhausting, especially if you or your child struggle with physical or mental health. Food allergies, Autism, ADHD, ARFID, and chronic illness diagnoses can make eating even more frustrating for children and adults alike. If you are looking for a neurodiversity-affirming provider who can help you make eating easy again, I invite you to reach out!

Through acupuncture along with being a psychotherapist has helped me to empathize with and understand the needs of my patients on a deeper level because of my own healing journey. I understand what it is like to not be listened to, taken seriously, or be told my problems were psychological when my body didn't improve as expected. Acupuncture, supplements and healing foods helped me dramatically improve my health. Anxiety, migraines, back/body pain can be alleviated through acupuncture where the body is strengthened over time and symptoms weakened. How would you like to treat the underlying cause of the problems you are facing?

As the first massage therapist to practice in a hospital, most of my clients are medically referred. Many have had chronic disabling pain and dysfunction issues. My training in Neuromuscular Therapy, CranioSacral Therapy and movement re-education based on the teachings of Moshe Feldenkrais as well as 33 years of clinical experience, give me a somewhat unique approach to treating complex musculoskeletal pain problems. My work has been reported in the Boston Globe. I am also the senior massage therapist at the Osher Clinic of the Brigham & Women's Hospital in Brookline. My private practice is in Dedham Mass.
