< Back to All Therapists

Piali (she/her) believes that individuals hold a great deal of expertise about their own lives. Psychotherapy is not a process of prescription, but rather one of co-exploration.

Piali’s approach is anchored in psychodynamic theory and practice; however, she recognizes the value of a flexible orientation in which other techniques - whether CBT, narrative, or solutions-based - are recruited as needed. She also draws on the Liberation Health model, which acknowledges the impact of power structures, historical legacies, and systemic oppression upon our inner lives.

Prior to becoming a social worker, Piali managed large teams and operations at multiple non-profit organizations. She also holds a Bachelor’s degree in Brain and Cognitive Science from MIT.
