"Sometimes we face challenges in life that require us to reach out for support. Anxiety, depression and relationship issues are common experiences that can impact our ability to feel like ourselves and live at our best capacity. Often these issues are rooted in hard life experiences or the accumulating stressors of today's world. Working from a person-centered and solution-focused approach I support my clients by helping them find connections between their feelings, thoughts and actions. I strive to create powerful therapeutic relationships as I believe this is the foundation of a successful healing alliance."

"Life experiences, transitions, and relationships provide both an opportunity to be challenged and to grow. In my practice, I welcome adults, couples, adolescents and families who wish to improve the quality of any dimension of their lives - from professional, family and parenting relationships to emotional, interpersonal, or physical challenges. Drawing upon specialized training focused on gaining insight (psychodynamic), building skills to manage emotions and behaviors (cognitive behavioral) and understanding relationships (family systems/relational), I work closely with individuals to develop understanding and identify goals that address the distinct factors that may be inhibiting life pursuits or interfering with personal, academic, or professional satisfaction and success."

"Located on Newbury St, I specialize in supporting men and fathers as they strive to become the best version of themselves. I tend to work with a lot of new fathers who happen to be former athletes. My background as a former high school and college athlete seems to serve our connection. My training as a therapist with a specialty in parenting, anger management and spiritual issues also informs how I work. The men who come see me want to channel their aggression in a healthier way and are incredibly self reliant and often have a hard time asking for help. I try to make it a little easier by being non-threatening male presence."

"I provide individual psychotherapy to adults (18-65) struggling with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, anger/irritability, and a wide range of psychosocial stressors, including relationship & family stress, adjustment & life transitions, career stress, grief/bereavement, and addiction problems.

Together we will explore your strengths and I will help you develop and work towards meaningful goals. My "whole self" approach encourages focus on all aspects of the self: heart, mind, body, and spirit empowering you to grow into the strongest version of yourself. "

"Are you feeling that a relationship or your life is not going the way you want? You may have a clear awareness of why this is or you may not. Are you having difficulty with someone you work with? Do you have a teenager or preteen child you're concerned about or frustrated with? Are you at a turning point in your life and unsure about how to progress or fearful of making the changes? Over 20 years Patty has work with people to help them make the changes that they are wanting, to have the life that they desire."

"I believe that our relationship is a partnership and that my role is to get a better understanding of how you approach life and how that approach either helps or hinders what you want."

"Our private practices are conveniently located in Boston's Historic Back Back, and on the coast of Cape Cod. Psychotherapy is a deeply personal choice that is often met with complicated and sometimes conflicting emotions. In order for people to make the best use of psychotherapy, they need to feel respected, safe, and supported within the therapeutic relationship. This lays the foundation upon which one can better understand themselves and in turn grow. My practice aims to assist people with improving the quality of their interpersonal relationships, deepening their understanding of the relational context in which they were raised, and living a more fulfilling life."

"I offer 4-6 session CBT programs to fight anxiety around body image, relationships, trauma, social situations, self-esteem, work/school issues, chronic health issues, chronic depression, and trauma (sexual and physical abuse, accidents, natural disasters, wars). Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that treats problems and boosts happiness by modifying dysfunctional emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. Unlike traditional talk therapy, which probes patterns and root causes of conflict, CBT focuses on solutions, encouraging patients to challenge distorted cognitions and change destructive patterns of behavior."

"My practice orientation is humanistic-existential and cognitive-behavioral. I focus on creating space to explore issues while utilizing evidenced-based strategies that not only improve the current situation, but develop a framework to apply to future issues. I have helped many people tame their anxiety and anger while improving creativity, intuition, and resilience. We will discover strengths and obstacles to form a plan to support lasting change. My goal is supporting individuals' growth towards building a meaningful life for themselves. I blend philosophies including Buddhism, Taoism, and Existentialism."

"My goal in therapy is to help clients gain a new, authentic perspective on their struggles with anxiety, depression, relationship let downs, or past trauma. Often, we can find that just beyond a struggle is the opportunity to move towards the things most important to us. These things might include meaningful relationships, a fulfilling career, and spending time doing the things you love or once loved. If you feel we could be a good fit, please give me a call to schedule a free phone consultation."

"I founded Azimuth Psychological, where we focus on the unique challenges of those in high-pressure careers and their families. My specialty is in entrepreneur mental health — especially around co-founder struggles, imposter syndrome, communication skills, burnout, difficulty making decisions under stress, and effective leadership. With my years of clinical training as a psychologist filtered through the lens of my own entrepreneurial journey, I am able to engage with entrepreneurs on a deeper level while providing the nuance, rigor, and evidence-based practice required to address big challenges. "

"Seeking therapy or finding a new therapist can sometimes be both intimidating and stressful. I have found, however, that once the right match is made, the therapeutic relationship almost always matures into an integral and rewarding aspect of my clients' routines and lives. I strive to engage my clients in a collaborative partnership as they process feelings, explore solutions and improve relationships. My eclectic and person-centered approach ensures that you continue to be the experts of your own lives, while I provide a supportive, empathic and non-judgmental space for you to change or cope with life's various challenges."

""We don't have to do all of it alone, we were never meant to." -Brené Brown. If you are considering making the decision to enter into the therapy process, you have come to the right place. I value the therapeutic relationship in my work with clients, as it is often a predictor of achieving the goals you set. I provide long-term and short-term psychotherapy with emphasis on anxiety, depression, grief/loss, life transitions, trauma, couples, family dynamics, general relational difficulties and adolescent/young adult centered challenges."

"Aspirational Counseling. Who are you? When was the last time you felt joyful or empowered? So often, we've been defined by our families, gender, culture, and our past. And, all too often, our thoughts "run us ragged" with unresolved issues, fears, shame, and obsessions that block our joy and ability to be in the moment. In a safe, validating environment, you will learn to identify emotional roadblocks such as anxiety, shame, low self esteem, self sabotaging habits, and unconscious reenactments of negative relationships, to form a bridge between your aspirations and reality. While my approach is individualized, I have particular experience in recovery from emotional abuse, relationship issues, Asperger Syndrome, self esteem, shame, body dysmorphia and eating disorders. "

I like to work with strengths of the individual and their support network in order to provide effective therapeutic interventions and facilitate change. I often utilize mindfulness principles and stress management in order to meet goals related to improved mental and physical health."
