Hi! I'm Leah.
I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in health psychology, with a particular focus on supporting individuals living with chronic illness, chronic pain and other medically complex conditions. I also work with individuals navigating a range of emotional challenges, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, academic or work-related stress, and more.
My Info
Whether you’re adjusting to a new health concern, feeling overwhelmed by daily stressors, or simply trying to regain your footing, I’m here to help. I strive to create a therapeutic space that is safe, compassionate, and collaborative. I help teens, young adults, and adults living with chronic pain, chronic illness, and persistent symptoms regain control of their lives, improve functioning, and build a meaningful life that isn't defined by their symptoms alone.
As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in health psychology, I work with individuals navigating POTS, EDS, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraine, IBS/IBD, endometriosis, CRPS, AMPS, Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), and other complex medical conditions. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients manage symptoms, reduce overwhelm, and reconnect with what matters most.
Prior to starting private practice, I was an attending pediatric psychologist at Boston Children's Hospital and faculty member at Harvard Medical School, where I helped develop the Young Adult Pain Rehabilitation Center (YAPRC), one of the first intensive interdisciplinary chronic pain programs in the country for young adults. I now provide virtual therapy throughout Massachusetts.
