Therapists in 01035
I am a clinical psychologist in practice in Amherst since 1989. I work with a wide range of people, from college aged through older adults, and with a wide range of problems and issues including: negative or vulnerable self-image, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, losses, and life transitions. I strive to provide a warm, safe, collaborative, open atmosphere in which to help people find relief from suffering and enhanced vital engagement in living. I believe that pathways to growth and healing often involve increasing awareness of underlying self-defeating patterns in the ways people experience and live their lives.

I have been working with parents, children and families for over 30 years. I specialize in elementary school age children. My book: “Parenting the Highly Sensitive Child” has been a resource for many parents who feel overwhelmed and defeated in the strategies they have tried. I offer tools for children struggling with emotional regulation, anger issues, ADHD, anxiety, oppositional defiant/challenging behaviors, learning difficulties and social skills. I help families regain a sense of balance by helping to resolve conflict and enhance communication....bringing enjoyment to your family once again.

There is so much about modern day life that can distract us from our feelings and what is truly important. I support clients in slowing down, listening to their bodies, and exploring the root causes of problems contributing to distress and discontent. Issues such as trauma, grief, or relationship dilemmas can feel like a heavy weight to carry alone. I'll partner with you on your journey of self-discovery and help you to build on existing strengths and inner resources. Benefits of therapy can include greater self-awareness, more effective ways of responding to life's challenges, and increased self-confidence.

Have you felt limited by talk therapy? Maybe you find it easier to share your feelings when you’re creating a piece of artwork, listening to music, or lying on the floor. You are unique and your therapy experience should be too. In our work together, I’ll walk beside you with care and respect. I won’t try to “fix” you, but I will support you in making sense of your experiences and finding your way forward. My goal is to help you feel more grounded in your body, more connected to your emotions, and more at home in yourself.

The world is moving at a fast pace, and you’re not alone if you’re feeling overwhelmed by it all!

When life feels difficult and hard to manage on your own, seeking out help is a wise and courageous choice. I offer a safe and confidential space where we can sort through all the noise, find out what really matters to you, assess your challenges and your strengths, and build more effective skills and resilience.

I offer a compassionate environment in which to heal and transform, beginning with embracing what IS, which allows for a more relaxed, gentle, clear and effective approach to our difficulties.
Much of our emotional suffering stems from a disconnection from ourselves and our relationship with life. The work I offer facilitates a deep, authentic connection with oneself through somatic, experiential and psychodynamic work, self-inquiry, mindfulness and the support of the therapeutic relationship. Essentially I see that each person I work with has the full potential for healing already on board. We work to uncover and access that, so that full aliveness is restored.

At some point in life many of us could benefit from the support of a trained therapist. I specialize in helping people manage their mental health symptoms holistically. My work aims to improve negative mental health symptoms and their impacts on social, academic, professional and physical issues. I help people to closely consider how their thoughts and behavior patterns are affecting their relationships, short term and long term life goals. We will work together to make adjustments in order to better manage and even eliminate symptoms.

I believe seeking therapy takes courage. As such, I bring compassion, warmth, respect and openness to the process. I strive to hold a no judgement space for people while working with them to develop new perspectives and tools to cope with challenging experiences and life transitions, thus transforming counter-productive ways of seeing and being. I am a sex positive therapist and enjoy engaging in the work with all different individuals and pairs ranging from intimate partnerships to family dyads. I am a one of the founders of the Homecoming Psychotherapy Collective.

Therapy supports well-being when the relationship helps us tap into our strengths and resources. My commitment to you is to build this kind of relationship. Results include improved mood, relationships,increased energy,
motivation, self acceptance, and creativity. I practice a body-based therapy called Somatic Experiencing that is a gentle approach to healing PTSD and symptoms of trauma. These include anxiety, depression, physical symptoms, and difficulty staying grounded in the present. We may use methods informed by my experience and training in contemplative practices and expressive therapies along with psychodynamic and cognitive therapies.

There’s no greater joy than seeing your child happy and healthy, however sometimes things happen in early life you wish your child didn’t have to experience.

Imagine sharing your most private thoughts and feelings, safely, and without risk, so that you get to know yourself more deeply. Neuroscience teaches us how emotions affect our behavior, how they are stored in the body, and how negative emotions can be healed. In my work, I utilize techniques that focus on the relationship and the feedback mechanisms between the mind and the body in order to promote deeper and more complete healing. I also help couples and families recognize patterns of behavior that contribute to misunderstanding, tension and conflict. My intention is to create a safe space that is non-judgmental, welcoming and warm.

My goal is to provide clients a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship to talk, feel, heal, and change. Life challenges present us with opportunities for new chapters, new growth.

Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and other coping strategies I guide clients forward, to health, wellness, safety and acceptance.
