Grief Therapists in 02121

I offer a co-ed Relationship Group. Feel free to inquire more about how this kind of therapy can be quite useful. I do Individual, Couples, Family, and Group Therapy. I currently facilitate a Bereavement Group which meets at my Brookline office every Saturday from 2-4pm. I also run groups for substance abuse, depression and anxiety. In addition, I have a lot of experience counseling children of all ages. I am a firm believer in strength-based psychotherapy.

As a retuning scholar I entered the field of social work as a seasoned individual who continues to utilize current clinical practice and life/lived experiences to support the populations that I serve. My primary expertise is in domestic violence, childhood and adult trauma, loss and grief, anger management, and solution focused therapy. During my 20+ years as an LCSW my goal has been to provide strength’s based, holistic, trauma informed care to people seeking support with their mental, emotional, spiritual, social, and physical well-being. I welcome members of all races, ethnicities, family structures and economic backgrounds.

Whether you’d like to focus on unresolved parts of your past, current struggles you are grappling with right now, concerns about your future or all of the above, I am here to help. You can count on a warm, open, confidential and non-judgmental place to talk about whatever it is that’s on your mind. For over 20 years, I have successfully helped both individuals and couples on a wide range of issues: anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, loss, grief, sexuality, chronic illness/pain, existential dilemmas and many other emotional challenges. I also supervise other mental health professionals.

We are committed to healing the traumatic impact of systemic racism in Boston, and to build a more equitable Boston in which youth of color can thrive. TBCC brings clinical expertise and deep experience working with youth of color and youth-serving organizations in Boston to co-create communities for healing.

Life is an ever-changing and often challenging endeavor. It's not uncommon to find yourself feeling stuck, defeated and alone. As a therapist, my goal is help you in your journey toward realizing your best self. One who is centered, confident and connected. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, or family and relationship issues, therapy can help.

Life can be tough. Trauma, relationships, and brain chemistry may contribute to uncontrollable emotions and the inability to cope with people and situations. It is not easy, and there are no quick fixes, but healing is possible. Everyone is different, and thus therapy should be tailored accordingly to individual needs. Our work will be collaborative to make sure you are getting the support that aligns with your personality, experiences, and goals. My approach emphasizes realistic approaches to meet you where you are.

Feeling immobilized by anxiety and depression? Suffering from mood swings or relationship issues? Having difficulty communicating or setting boundaries? Everyone wants to feel secure and confident in successfully managing their own lives, but sometimes even day-to-day tasks can seem insurmountable when dealing with these issues. Reaching your goals sometimes requires the help of an empathic partner with the knowledge and expertise to listen and guide you to your goals, providing tools and techniques that will be with you for a lifetime. I am here to help.
