"*Please note, I am not accepting new clients at this time.* Trauma happens at a particular or multiple moments of time, but its effects reach into the present. Memories of past hurts keep coming up. You wish you could just forget those painful experiences and move on, except everyday comes with triggers that remind you of the past. It is hard to get through each day. The feelings of sadness and hopelessness come and go, but it doesn't seem to get any better. Anxiety and nervousness get in the way of work, relationships and having fun. With all the struggles, healing is possible and seeking help takes courage!"

My mission is to create a warm, safe and non-judgmental environment that allows clients to express themselves with ease.

I employ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, motivational interviewing, art and relaxation techniques to build lifelong coping strategies."

"My personal and professional experience taught me that sometimes life challenges can overwhelm us and prevent us from experiencing happiness and wellbeing. Reaching out for help may not be easy.

In my practice I use vast array of therapeutic approaches and provide a safe environment allowing positive change through self-exploration."

"I believe all people are capable of change if one is willing to be open, honest, and engaged in taking a hard look at oneself and the behaviors that are not best serving goal achievement and a happy life.

We select from a variety of insight oriented and cognitive behavioral therapies, including relaxation training and the expressive arts."

"I approach individuals and families from a Cognitive Behavioral perspective and with the belief that change is possible. While recognizing that change can be painful, it can provide a tremendous amount of freedom when individuals are stuck and having trouble moving forward. People often seek treatment for depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, or family problems, but most of the real work in therapy involves making a shift from old patterns of behavior that are no longer working. I strive to help individuals mindfully engage in this exciting process by helping shift self-defeating thoughts and expectations toward productive, positive growth."

" I believe in providing a non-judgmental, safe space where a person can feel free to explore different ways of thinking, feeling, and doing. Change is not always easy. You don't have to go through it alone. With collaborative, goal oriented, person focused therapy you can explore who you are and who you would like to become."

"I have been in full-time private practice in Methuen and now North Andover since 2000. I have acquired an extensive amount of experience in a wide variety of settings including medical, legal, geriatric, substance abuse, inpatient and community mental health. Knowledge gained from this experience helps me a great deal in understanding and evaluating each client's individual situation. Early in my career I developed an interest in cognitive psychology and the connection between how people think and their behavior, emotions and relationships. This approach has subsequently evolved into what is now called cognitive-behavior therapy or CBT."

"I love working with folks who are ready to invite change into their lives. Most people come to therapy because something is not quite right--perhaps a crisis,a loss, abuse, anxiety,or trauma... or perhaps it's a pervasive sense of something missing in life, a sense that things could be so much better. I like to help people learn to give themselves permission to truly look at what's working/not working in life, and in particular in their relationships(any or all relationships). We'll look at your core values and what matters most to you."
