Having it all can be stressful. Balancing work, relationships, self-care, and family with limited time and resources can be overwhelming and lead to guilt and shame. I work with professionals seeking work-life balance & navigating career transitions. I also have a specialization in helping working parents who are striving to facilitate supportive family dynamics. As a counseling psychologist, business owner, and parent, I offer personalized strategies to help individuals achieve balance, conquer career challenges, and navigate the complexities of parenthood with confidence.

Currently Accepting New Patients. Worries, relationship difficulties, sadness are all welcome here. You are tired of feeling irritable. Your feelings about your yourself have begun to dominate your thoughts. Your ability to focus may be suffering. When your phone rings, you don't want to answer. You are feeling like you don't know how to get out of your own way. You know you mean well and are capable, but things are not coming together. You promise yourself things will change, you will get a handle on things this time. However, change remains elusive.

Over the course of my career as a clinical social worker, I have focused my work on providing LGBTQI-affirming psychotherapy to individuals who have experienced trauma, in its many interpersonal and systemic forms. As a white queer nonbinary femme therapist, I continue to educate myself on the privileges and power dynamics inherent in my own social position in relation to my clients, and I openly work from an anti-oppression framework.

I have experience working with adolescents, adults and couples. My theraputic approach is active, change-oriented and focuses on personal effectiveness. I attempt to create a nonjudgemental, positive enviornment in which clients are able to explore their difficulties and achieve a more balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.

I provide individual therapy to adolescents and adults in a non-judgmental and down to earth environment. My goal is to create a safe space where clients feel empowered to set and reach goals, develop positive coping strategies, and build confidence. I pull from various clinical approaches, fine tuning my approach to each individual client and their situation. I have significant experience helping individuals manage and cope with attachment disorders, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, transitional factors, social issues, emotional regulation, sensory processing disorders, PTSD, trauma and adoption/foster care.

I work with individuals, couples and families. The decision to enter therapy is a significant decision, and finding someone you feel comfortable working with is important. Most often, my clients have pursued therapy when personal efforts were not bringing them the success they wanted. My style is described as caring and supportive, while offering direct and active tools to bring you to your goals.

As a South African immigrant I love working with other's who question identity and meaning in life. My main goal is to empower you, finding your strengths, reducing negative thought cycles (anxiety, depression) and teaching you to untie your emotional knots and to live authentically with meaning. You will leave having better relationships with yourself, and others. Believe it or not we will do a lot of laughing while we work. Experience: creativity, work/life balance, sexuality, anxiety, leadership, couples therapy,premarital/dating, stress reduction. I have trained in diverse settings (including fellowship at Boston University's Danielsen Institute).

Seeking therapy is a sign of personal strength, not of weakness. It takes awareness in our lives and courage to be able to reach out for help. Often people who engage in therapy are actually doing well in life, but would like to do better in one area or another. Working with a licensed therapist can provide the objective and professional feedback needed to assist in defining challenges, developing goals, and working toward positive change. Benefits of therapy may include improved and more satisfying relationships, increased energy and productivity, and feelings of well-being.

I specialize in working with clients on stress related to managing depression, anxiety, chronic illness, chronic pain, fatigue, caregiver burnout, smoking cessation, obesity, and other health-related concerns. I know that making the decision to begin therapy may feel daunting, but it is a step worth celebrating. It would be my privilege to accompany you along this journey. I believe in the importance of holistic care and take a collaborative and integrative approach to therapy, tailoring my interventions to meet the unique needs and goals of each client.

Dedicating time and attention to our own needs can feel overwhelming for so many of us. My goal is to support and challenge you as you jump into the journey of self-advocacy and compassion. I work alongside you as you come through the moments that feel endless, the emotions that feel confusing, and the thoughts that feel overpowering. Together, we can identify strategies to find clarity within your emotions.

Effective psychotherapy is a collaborative process and begins with a motivated client and a well-trained clinician. Whether you're dealing with a challenging relationship, a frustrating career, or symptoms of anxiety or depression, therapy can be a highly effective resource. In the first couple of sessions, I conduct an evaluation to familiarize myself with your presenting issues and history. We then take steps to hone skills you already have and to develop new strategies to help you navigate your life more successfully. Depending on your needs and preferences, we can work in a short-term model or on an open-ended basis.

Through my practice as an LMHC, I have found my style matches perfectly with people living with everyday mental illness such as anxiety/depression/substance use/life stress. Most clients come to me for support with identifying issues, assessing them and then problem solving to overcome and strengthen their own skill set and use of coping skills. My clients enjoy traditional talk therapy as well as setting some goals and using my service to keep them accountable. Whether you are looking for a non biased, clinical, third party to chat with or someone to process and overcome stressors and life issues, you are in the right spot.

Scott Callaghan takes a client-centered approach to therapy. He enjoys building a solid rapport with each client to make them feel comfortable during sessions. Scott uses humor and authenticity to create a positive environment for the client. He works with a variety of presenting issues, including substance use and addiction, depression, anxiety, and stress management.

Are you struggling to find ways to begin living a happier, secure, and fulfilled life or maybe a better handle on the current situation that keeps standing in the way of your goals? Let me help you through this process of seeking and promoting that self-love and examine your behaviors and how the behaviors of others impact you. You are in control! You have the strength, and you will have the answer! Life's too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. As a therapist, I believe in providing a space where you will feel secure and safe to share those thoughts that continue spinning in your head throughout the day.

Online Therapy Only. In my practice, I strive to provide a nurturing and accepting environment where clients have autonomy and feel safe to express themselves without judgment. I utilize techniques that empower and cultivate hope. Much of my experience is working with trauma and addictive patterns of behavior, substance abuse and eating disorders, as well as anxiety and depression. I utilize motivational interviewing techniques in conjunction with CBT to uncover and change unhealthy patterns of thinking and behavior. It is often the lies we believe about ourselves and situations that keep us stuck and prevent progress.

You are capable of change. Struggling with mental health is very challenging but it doesn't have to rule your life. You may already know what you need to do, it’s making it happen that can be so challenging. Having support that is tailored to you will help you achieve the goals you want for your life.

Are you weary of traditional methods of therapy? Whereas CBT, DBT, and other methods make you do homework and change your thoughts for your happiness, my methods are more interesting, imaginative, and highly personalized... and I use humor! We wont fight our suffering, we'll work with it, and transform it. Got anxiety, communication issues, existential dread (I mean, with the world being as it is, how can we not?), or a host of other things that cause you suffering? With my support you can catch a wave and surf into your best self. What's in it for you? A healing relationship with one of the most supportive people out here!
