Nathan is a third-year clinical psychology doctoral student at William James College who will be joining our team from September 2024 to June 2025. Nathan’s therapeutic style is kind, conversational and collaborative. He appreciates that therapy can feel somewhat intimidating at times, and he strives to create a comfortable environment and put his clients at ease.
Nathan enjoys working with adolescents and adult clients on issues surrounding identity, interpersonal relationships and mental health. Nathan has worked with a variety of diagnoses including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, trauma related disorders and substance use disorders as well as patients posing high risk for self-harm and suicide.
Nathan is experienced using DBT- and CBT-based models in therapy, and to develop and facilitate group sessions. He draws from psychodynamic and existential approaches, and values a flexible, conversational, and patient-centered approach to therapy. As such, Nathan is especially adept in supporting those who may be new to therapy, nervous in taking the leap, or only recently willing to give it a try.
Nathan graduated from Wagner College in Staten Island, New York with a Bachelor of Science in Biopsychology and a minor in Spanish. He received his Master of Arts in professional psychology from William James College. From August 2022 to June 2023 Nathan worked at Steppingstone, Inc., an outpatient dual-diagnosis substance use clinic in Fall River, where he supported adults with substance use disorders and other mental illnesses. Prior to joining our team, Nathan worked clinically with Westborough Behavioral Healthcare Hospital in Westborough. There, he provided services in the child inpatient unit and the adolescent partial-hospitalization program, where he ran psychoeducational and therapy groups for teens.
