Therapists in 02494

I commend you for engaging in the timely, sometimes daunting, and perhaps exciting process of seeking out therapy, for yourself or for a loved one. A trusting therapeutic relationship is essential. I will work to establish a safe, supportive environment for you to share, process and discuss your innermost thoughts and emotions. I currently work full-time at a public high school as an adjustment counselor. I previously worked as a clinical social worker at a domestic adoption agency and a partial hospitalization/intensive outpatient program.

Are you struggling from sleepless nights and feel like you have "tried everything"? If you are tired of feeling tired and want to improve your sleep, I can help. Imagine what it would feel like to wake up in the morning and feel rested, refreshed, and ready to take on your day. This is possible without the use of prescription or over-the-counter medications. Even if you have trouble shutting your mind off at night, or are coping with anxiety or depression, we can work together to significantly improve your sleep at night. With better sleep comes the strength to tackle your biggest challenges.

Many people find me because something they are doing has become larger than they want it to be and is no longer working. It could be technology use (my special interest), substance use, pornography, working, or gambling, among many other things. Often these behaviors show up when people are experiencing stress, interpersonal conflict, insomnia, sadness, anxiety, existential crises, self-doubt, self-criticism, or the pain of high self-expectations, and so our work focuses upon these topics as well. I work with teenagers and adults in individual therapy, including some joint family or couple sessions as needed to support loved ones.

At Child Therapy Boston, we have a passion for working with children, teens, siblings, families and groups. We are confident that we can help individuals and families struggling with diagnoses including ADHD, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Depression, Developmental Disabilities, Oppositional Defiance Disorder, and Attachment. We enjoy working with clients who are struggling with self-esteem, family relationships, grief and loss, bullying, life transitions, and stress management. We also offer specialized counseling for LGBTQIA+ youth.

I work with people who want to improve themselves, their relationships and their self image. These are people seeking a sounding board, a safe confidential place to talk, and extensive knowledge and experience dealing with their issues. My work focuses on where the client is now, and where they want to go, with no pre-conceived notions. We look at past experiences together and how they impact the present. For parents, I offer coaching and suggestions for managing challenging behaviors, and understanding the impact of early childhood trauma of behavior. With younger children, I encourage learning about expression of feelings.

Basically I work with all kinds of issues and use the methodology best suited to each person and his/her needs. I am trained in pastoral counseling as well as Jungian psychotherapy so issues connected with spirituality, search for meaning, understanding dreams, looking for purpose in life and relationships are all familiar territory.

I am all set up to do video counseling sessions for new and on-going mental health sessions. Please call me for more information to set up your video counseling free interview. I believe most people face times in their lives when they need to seek help from a professional psychotherapist. Many people do not act on that need because of fear and shame. I believe the healthier you are the more likely you will feel it makes sense to collaborate with a mental health specialist.

Does your child, teen or adolescent have difficulties emotionally, behaviorally or socially? Are you a young adult who struggles to maintain friendships or succeed at work or school? I specialize in the treatment of children, adolescents and young adults who experience anxiety, social difficulties, behavioral issues, ADHD, or low self-esteem. Specifically, I have expertise working with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their families. I enjoy helping clients experience greater success at school, home, work, or with peers.

My name is Vicki Reiszner, LICSW and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with a commitment to helping children, young adults, and families reach their goals. I specialize in working with LGBTQ individuals and their families in order to promote social and emotional health and well-being. I have also helped young adults who have experienced a range of mental health challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and struggles with appropriate social skills, emotional regulation and attention, sense of positive self, and engagement in safe and healthy behaviors.

I specialize in conducting neuropsychological evaluations for children and adolescents. However, I am NOT taking clients for therapy at this time. The evaluations I conduct are invaluable to parents who are trying to understand their child's learning style and their learning strengths and weaknesses. Often, parents seek my help when they are concerned about their child's ability to achieve his/her potential in school and/or regulate his/her behaviors or emotions. My reports have been crucial tools for many parents in securing academic accommodations for their children both in the state of Massachusetts and elsewhere.

Have you had a great idea, a POP,  only to talk yourself out of it?  Started a project but abandoned it, telling yourself it was too overwhelming or just not doable?  Wanted to try something new or different and been discouraged by your own thoughts or the words of others?  We all have, haven’t we?  I certainly have.  So what is the driver behind our stopping, getting distracted, being “too busy” and talking ourselves out of actions and desires that will lead to greater fulfillment or happiness?   Fear!  Fear stops us from all things possible, from opening up and receiving the brilliance that this lifetime offers!

I am a thoughtful, warm professional with a good sense of humor. My primary training is in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which I integrate with other treatment modalities. I work well with both children and adults, tailoring my approach to meet the individual needs of my clients. My aim is to provide a supportive atmosphere where clients can work towards their goals, while learning practical strategies and skills that offer relief.

I am a clinical psychologist who has been working with children, adolescents and adults for over 25 years. I integrate a variety of therapeutic approaches in order to target your child's and your family's unique set of needs. Depending on your child's age and challenges, my approach blends components of developmental psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, family systems and neuropsychology. I specialize in helping children learn strategies for managing anxiety, emotional regulation, depression, learning/developmental disabilities, Autism, and ADHD, to name a few.

I will provide you with a safe space for self-exploration, and a fundamental model for self-reflection to utilize in your everyday life. During treatment, we will work together to recognize how your current life situation is being directly affected by past events and relational (or interpersonal) patterns. We will also come to understand how psychological influences, which remain outside of your awareness, negatively impact your ability to accomplish your goals, feel fulfilled by your relationships, and sustain a sense of emotional well-being.

Searching for a psychologist, particularly over the web, can be a really hard thing to do. Just looking at the word "therapy" can make some folks feel uncomfortable. Sometimes these experiences stop people from obtaining much needed relief from bothersome problems. If you are on this site, you have made an important move towards feeling a whole lot better. I think choosing the right person to help you exchange "problems" for "coping skills" is a great start. My hunch about successful therapy is that it is a combination of good planning, hard work, mutual liking and sometimes a dose of good humor.

As a neurofeedback specialist, I am most effective with people who have brain based problems and goals. These include: Attention issues, anxiety, hyperactivity, impulsivity, executive function challenges, emotional problems, epilepsy, head injury/ post concussion syndrome, Autistic Spectrum Disorders, depression, learning disabilities, language delay, developmental delay, anger problems, underachievers, and cognitive decline of aging. Goals may also include improvements in: Athletic performance, decision-making, job performance, parenting and creative performance and brain anti-aging. I use other biofeedback applications when called for. As a well-seasoned cognitive/behavioral, individual, couple and family oriented therapist, I help people make sustainable progress toward their goals.

I am a developmental neuropsychologist who specializes in diagnostic evaluations and therapy with infants, toddlers, preschool and school aged children (ages 0-10). I believe that a thorough neuropsychological evaluation leads to proper intervention which can help a child overcome a wide range of developmental, behavioral, and learning problems. I will walk you hand in hand through the evaluation and treatment process and follow your child over time to ensure that he/she makes progress and doesn't "fall through the cracks." I will develop a treatment plan for your child and help parents, providers, and teachers put services into place and recommendations into action.

The loss of a loved one can change your life. Many people may face anxiety and the unexpected adventure of reshaping their life. Many need assistance and help along such an unchartered journey. I have over twenty years of experience in healthcare settings, clinical settings and hospice. My clinical services can assist clients and walk with them on the journey through grief and bereavement. I am available for counseling, lectures and consultation around Grief areas.
