Grief Therapists in 02478

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are seeking support to manage mood, anxiety, life transitions, grief, motivation, sleep, and family concerns. I have specific expertise working with young adults and college students, but I enjoy and have extensive experience working with individuals across the lifespan. My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). These treatments are scientifically validated to help clients develop specific coping skills to manage distress and engage more fully in their life. My style is warm, collaborative, encouraging, and creative.

Using the therapeutic process I can offer many things to people: empathy and a sounding board, other ways of looking at issues, and ideas about how to solve problems. In addition, I can help you feel more alive to your experience as paying attention to your inner voice can increase your capacity to feel and be present. I have been a therapist for over twenty years. I also have taught clinical practice for ten years to students earning their masters degrees in counseling and I provide ongoing clinical supervision for people who work in various settings.

From over 30 years of experience, I bring a warm and interactive approach to helping you address emotional issue/s that interfere with living the life you'd like to live. These emotional issues could be depression, trauma, anxiety, divorce, grief, abuse, low-self esteem, etc. I draw from a host of treatment models that I believe will best suit your needs including Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP). One model is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) that's particular helpful in facilitating resolution of issues in a shorter amount of time.

I believe personal growth and healing can come from a strong therapeutic alliance. Change and recovery are possible. I promise to provide a safe, trusting environment where you will feel seen, understood, and accepted as you are. My approach is genuine, creative, and curious. I strive to help you recognize beliefs that are holding you back, more effectively face struggles in your life, and learn skills to develop healthier relationships and a more meaningful life. In the end, the larger goal is to make you a better ally to yourself.

I have experience treating adults with grief and loss issues, coparenting and family issues, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, substance use, relationship difficulties, and parenting and life transitions including divorce, loss and employment. My ideal client wishes to improve their overall quality of life personally and/or professionally.

Welcome! You are motivated to deal with some important personal issues and overcome some obstacles. Over my 30 years of clinical work I have had the privilege to work with and help a wide range of clients, on issues from stress, adjustment and relationship issues to more longstanding and persistent experiences of anxiety, trauma and depression. It has been a pleasure to watch clients access their inner strength and resilience and hone their problem solving abilities in a safe and supportive atmosphere. I have witnessed their vulnerability, courage and strength, all at their broken places, and all vital to their healing process.

As a clinical social worker, I provide counseling to adolescents and adults seeking therapy for a number of reasons such as depression, anxiety, past history of abuse/trauma, and relationship issues. I have worked in a variety of settings including schools, community and college counseling centers, in residential facilities, and in private practice.

I have been a therapist for 25+ years and work with clients of all ages. I support clients who are coping with anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, life stressors, mood and behavior regulation needs. There are times in life when we don't feel as connected, capable or happy as we would like. I help my clients access their inner resources so they can experience the change they want and get in touch with their most authentic selves. I believe everyone can reclaim their power, heal, grow and thrive.

In all my work with clients I provide a warm, safe and respectful environment based on collaboration and curiosity. When people contact me with concerns about themselves or their children, they often feel stuck or at a loss about how to proceed. They may be concerned about issues of self-esteem, satisfaction in relationships, or a teenager's emotional ups and downs at home or in school. I use an active and interactive style in helping clients gain new ways to understand themselves and new tools to address problematic patterns of thinking, feeling, or behaving.

I am licensed to practice in MA, NY, RI, and ME, and am available for virtual sessions. I use an integrative approach to psychotherapy, combining insight and skills-based frameworks. I help clients understand how their past experiences and relationships shaped and influence who they are now and how they experience the world (insight), and I help them develop tools for addressing current life situations and for putting that insight to work in moving their lives in the direction they want (skills-based). This approach helps clients link the past which formed them, the present they are living in, and the future they wish to experience.

I take a comprehensive approach to helping my clients feel better. For many people, therapy is episodic. We arrive at therapy when we need to overcome a momentary setback, learn or re-learn how to manage negative feelings, work through paralyzing indecision, manage grief, and clarify our goals, among other reasons. I believe in supporting clients in finding their own inner guide, coping skills, community resources, and social supports so that their path to feeling better is in their own hands. I particularly enjoy helping couples better understand and communicate around feelings and behaviors.
