Liana Buccieri
Staff Therapist
I’ve been working as a therapist at BU since 2012, and I really enjoy working with students here. College is such an exciting and also often overwhelming time in people’s lives, and I feel lucky to work with students through the really hard moments and the amazing moments of growth and progress. I have expertise in working with LGBTQ+ populations, including people who are in any stage of exploring sexuality and gender identity issues. Students often describe me as warm, validating and down to earth. I strive to help students feel heard and validated, and to provide a space where they are supported as they process and work through whatever they want to. I look forward to meeting you!
Personal Hobbies
I love seeing live music, especially smaller local shows; watching women’s sports; trying new restaurants and traveling when I can; and having adventures with my wife and twin boys.
