Parenting Therapists in 02143

Welcome. I delight working alongside people of all ages individually, as a family, and with groups. At different life stages, we all navigate growth spurts such as starting school/college, jobs, relationships, moving into elderhood. Figuring ourselves out - our inner wishes, styles, patterns, relationships and how to enact them - often benefits from exploration, support and guidance. I bring experience in multicultural, multisystemic and multimodal problem-solving to these turning points that can include expressive, mindfulness, CBT, etc. I've particularly worked for years alongside children and the adults who care for them(c).

I believe seeking therapy is a sign of strength! I assist individuals to find more happiness and health in their lives. I help people to understand and overcome their challenges and make significant progresses. I devote my work to help people feel calmer, more at peace, and enjoy more satisfying lives. I help motivated people being clear about their goals and finding effective ways in life. I love to work with accomplished professionals that need assistance to overcome barriers in their pursue of happiness.

I have been operating a general clinical practice serving adults, adolescents, children, families, and couples for over 20 years. My professional orientation is client-centered and problem solving/solution focused – integrating cognitive and family systems approaches. My services offered include brief treatment, intermittent treatment, longer term treatment, individual, couples, and family therapy. Referral problems typically include mood disorders, relationship problems, parenting problems, family adjustment problems, trauma and abuse issues, anxiety disorders, loss and bereavement issues, marital issues and post-divorce adjustment, and adolescent behavior problems.

I have worked with people who have anxiety, depression, trauma, obsessions, compulsions, phobias, and panic. People come to me to work on relationships in order to resolve conflicts that are having a negative impact on them. These relationships may be significant others, spouse, child, parent, roommate, or co-worker.

Anxiety, depression, guilt, shame, regret. Marital conflict, parent-child struggles. Alienation, isolation. These are not just words. They are real problems that don't always have easy solutions. I help clients to learn, grow, and resolve their problems -- whether big or small, simple or complicated. Those problems may include: self-defeating habits, hurtful relationship patterns, overwhelming anxiety, or debilitating depression. Want a safe place where you are appreciated and your experience is validated? I can provide it. Need interpersonal understanding and wise guidance? I can offer that, too. Want to mobilize inner resources? With my help, you can. Contact me.

Entering therapy is courageous. It can be a transformational space, a bridge from suffering to the discovery of choices that enable people to actively engage life. Depression, anxiety, fear and difficult feelings are not indicative of sickness, but rather signals that call for self-care, curiosity and empathy. I believe people's strengths are integral in the therapeutic process; I seek to help people access their humor, resilience, courage, intelligence, sensitivity and honesty throughout the healing process.

In working together I will encourage you to find your own "clear voice" by connecting with your values, sorting out conflicts, and developing new skills. Most importantly, our work involves connecting to your own inner strength. My clients describe me as an astute listener who provides them with a warm and grounded place in which to expand understanding and to learn new and practical approaches. Therapeutic work we do together will often result in your improved ability to "unstick" stuck relationships, get unblocked and communicate more effectively, as well as making meaningful decisions that fit for you.

I provide a therapeutic space where clients can begin to look at relationships, beliefs, values and feelings in a safe, nonjudgmental setting. I approach the sessions with warmth and humor and my hope is that clients will feel comfortable and at ease.

It is often difficult to be one's unique human self. How wonderful you have the courage to propel hope for deep and lasting change for your emotional struggles. Adults in individual and couples therapy deserve to experience loving relationships, and freedom from anxiety, depression, trauma, ADD, and one's idiomatic patterns of difficulty. When your strengths come to the fore, problems loosen their hold, creating the possibilities of you consistently being lovingly in charge of your own life. When your inner life is enriched, you increase possibilities for more abundance. Your private education becomes a great overall investment.

I have been in private practice in the Boston/Cambridge area for 30 years working with adults and adolescents, couples and families. I work with clients utilizing a trauma informed lens as well as elements of liberation psychology. I feel all clinical work must begin with a thorough understanding of a client's multiple identities and how those identities interact within their communities and the larger culture.  My work and my passion are embedded in a deep commitment to social justice.

Are you struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, work stress, parenting, or relational issues? You’re not alone. Nearly one out of four adults are struggling in these areas or other mental health issues every year. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and have been practicing for nearly twenty years. My approach as a therapist is warm, curious, and compassionate.

Thanks for stopping by. I am a bilingual developmental psychologist, a clinical social worker and an avid yogi for nearly twenty years. I hold a BC in psychology from Venezuela, a master degrees in Early Intervention from Northeastern University and a masters in Clinical Social Work from Simmons University. I have worked with children and adults with mental health and developmental challenges in a variety of setting and bring my expertise in the field as well as my deep compassion. I truly love helping others in any capacity. I pull from many different frameworks including EMDR, CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT and mindfulness.

Hi, I’m a clinical psychologist working both virtually and in my office in Cambridge. Most people find me to be friendly, and feel at ease in my presence. I’m interested in collaborating with you on your therapy goals, and will support you in the process. I work with all kinds of people, so if you feel drawn to my profile please reach out! I do also have some sub-specialties, which are 1) young adults (16-28), 2) coaching for parents, and 3) early Autism assessment to toddlers ages 1-3 years.

If you have come to this page, chances are you want to change. You may be experiencing a major life change in your health, relationships, or work. This may be causing overwhelming anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. You may be struggling to figure out how to navigate this stressor effectively, and feeling confused or alone. Therapy can help you understand the challenges you face and help you create goals that align with your values. Working with a professional can help you learn and apply practical coping strategies to manage stress better and live according to what matters most to you. You are here to try something new.

For nine years I’ve been part of the Harvard Medical School system, first as a trainee, now as faculty member. I'm trained primarily in psychodynamic therapy, but principles/interventions from other paradigms also inform my work. Ultimately, the nature of therapy depends on the patient and their goals. For this reason, the course of therapy is hard to describe, but it seems only to work amidst empathy, respect, and compassion, not to mention humor (sometimes life can only be laughed at). This is a perspective I lay out in some detail in a new two-volume book, published by Routledge, titled, "A Humane Vision of Clinical Psychology."

I believe in the power of talking and the therapeutic relationship to help my clients better understand their inner worlds and cope with the complicated realities of life. Together, we strive to draw meaningful connections that can ultimately lead to personal fulfillment and successful relationships. My work is informed by psychodynamic concepts — exploring how the unconscious and early experiences may impact one's emotions and relationship dynamics. I emphasize collaboration and open dialogue about our process together, and use a social justice lens to acknowledge the ways in which the socio-political context impacts experience.

Reaching out for support can be difficult, but it can also be the first step on a journey of healing, discovery, wellness, and care for yourself. I’m glad you’re here! I have provided individual therapy to adults, young adults, adolescents, and new parents for over twenty years and enjoy supporting others in learning about themselves, developing adaptive ways to manage distress, and feeling more connected to their experiences. Humans have a natural capacity for healing and growth; and through our work together, I support participants in exploring “stuck” places and living a more authentic, integrated life.

I have been a psychotherapist for 20 years. My practice specializes in helping men redefine their approach to relationships in a way that feels authentic, and in line with healthy male emotional development. I specialize in self-esteem, self-actualization, and helping men build and maintain attraction and intimacy. The foundation for male self-esteem begins in childhood and sets the foundation for men to share themselves in relationships, feel successful, and being a meaningful part of their children's lives. I also specialize in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in men and women, as well as recovery from abusive relationships.

My ideal client is someone who is higher functioning and has some self-awareness. My ideal client is between the ages of 25-40, struggling with managing emotional distress, and often has issues with relationships in their lives. My ideal client is in a place where they are ready to do the work, even if it's uncomfortable. Their needs are often centered around building confidence, improving emotional regulation, setting boundaries, and building healthy relationships with themselves and others. My clients desire to obtain peace in their lives, even if that means letting go of what no longer serves them.
