Children (6 to 10) Therapists in 01451

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed School Social Worker in Massachusetts. I am currently enrolled in a doctorate program at Simmons University studying to become a Doctor of Social Work. I completed my Masters Degree in Social Work from Boston University, and specialize in working with children, teens, and their parents around symptoms of anxiety, PTSD, CPTSD, adjustment disorders, self harm, suicidality and mood disorders.I use a variety of therapeutic approaches such as HAES, ARC, ACT, DBT, CBT, motivational interviewing, play therapy and practices rooted in justice.

I enjoy working with people of all ages who are interested in finding meaning in and making peace with their lives. My high school English teacher left two indelible ideas in my head, a quote from Socrates "The unexamined life is not worth living" and the Latin question "Quo Vadis?" or "Where are you going?". Since then, I have not only held this sense of curiosity for my own journey but practiced the profession in which I get to be present with other people as they embrace curiosity for their own lives, face their challenges, losses and changes, heal their wounds, and find their directions.

Welcoming NEW patients for individual psychotherapy! Please call 617-600-4249 for appointments. As a therapist, I have made it a priority to create a therapeutic environment where patients feel like they are part of a collaborative effort during their treatment. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and young adults. I utilize DBT, CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I have experience working with a wide range of mental health challenges, including substance use, and addictions. I believe in meeting people where they are in order to guide them towards self-awareness.

When was the last time that you felt truly listened to, heard & understood? You more than likely talk to many people throughout your day but how often are you making connections with others that feel truly authentic? Many people are currently feeling isolated even when surrounded by others because they do not have someone in their life creating a welcoming and safe space that allows them to feel comfortable enough to share their worries & struggles. Therapy can be this place, where building a trusting relationship with a compassionate practitioner can allow you to feel seen & can support improvements in your health & well-being.
