equilibrium

Boston-based psychotherapy

Evidence-based psychotherapy for adults managing chronic illness
and for high achievers under sustained pressure.

How I can help

Finding balance under pressure

Whether you’re managing chronic illness, sustained high achievement, or both, these pressures can impact physical health, require new ways of coping, and create tension between life’s demands, your values, and your relationship with self and others. Therapy at Solstice Health Psychology offers space to regain balance and move forward with intention.

Living with chronic illness

Health concerns can reshape routines, relationships, and sense of self. Therapy addresses the emotional, behavioral, and physical impact of illness, with practical strategies for coping, adapting, and living well with a chronic condition.
