Hi there! I'm Sydney, the therapist.
I'm a Boston-based therapist who works with teens and college students. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, and phobias (and all the tough stuff that comes with these things- bad moods, avoidance, anger, poor self-esteem, sadness- you name it). I teach my clients skills to help them feel better in the moment while guiding them on a path of long-term healing. I'm certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and, when it's appropriate, I integrate activities and art into my sessions because going to therapy doesn't have to feel like pulling teeth. I hold sessions both in-person and virtually, and I'm licensed in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.Â
