Therapists in 02909

*I am not currently taking new clients. I believe in a holistic, strength based, individual approach where I strive to create a culturally competent, caring, and non judgmental environment where you feel heard and understood. Using this therapeutic relationship we build goals and strategies that fit who you are as an individual. We can together use this foundation to better understand how you experience life and transform this self discovery into change. I work from a strength focused, collaborative approach, combining insight about the self with concrete strategies that help you build skills to combat your issues.

***Telehealth Only*** Welcome and thank you for considering me to be your therapist. I am a licensed mental health and substance abuse counselor with over ten years of experience working with those seeking to allow themselves the time and space to heal. My goal is to bring you closer to understanding how your mental well-being relates to your overall health and how even small changes in self-awareness can foster significant growth and wellness. I honor and encourage a collaborative relationship and aim to maintain a safe, non-judgemental space of openness for us to work together to meet your needs.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker practicing in Providence, Rhode Island. I specialize in in anxiety, depression, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I take an integrative perspective, emphasizing nutrition, physical activity and exercise as sources for overall well-being and growth. My practice is open to individual adults and couples, as well as clients for group therapy. I enjoy helping clients find their voice and cultivate assertiveness in their relationships.

As we move through life, we develop patterns of thinking, feeling, relating, and processing to help us get by. Sometimes, these patterns serve us well. Other times, they can get in our way. In our work together, we will creatively and thoughtfully develop a space to learn about you - your experiences, your relationships, your thoughts and feelings and behaviors. Together, we will work to identify and untangle these patterns, trace their origins, deepen your insight and develop new goals. Through this process, many find a greater sense of fulfillment and clarity in navigating their personal and professional lives.

My approach to therapy is client-centered and strengths-based. Living any full life brings multiple experiences of loss, grief and adjustments. I seek to provide a supportive environment to meet and process your life challenges. In a psychotherapeutic setting, clients will be supported in exploring and processing long standing thought and behavior patterns and make choices to develop healthier patterns.

Cannot take new appointments. Individual psychotherapy only. I combine development of coping strategies with deepening an understanding of one's self to help clients improve their overall quality of life. Discovering emotions, attitudes, and behavioral patterns of which a person was previously unaware can be a difficult undertaking, but the end reward is the freedom to truly make decisions for one's self.

*PRACTICE FULL* I am a clinical social worker with advanced training in human sexuality. I assist clients in gaining insights about gender, sexuality and/or relationships. For example, I can help in healing from sexual harm, improve sexual functioning, address out-of-control sexual behavior, and help explore challenges related to sexuality and ability. I can help you live authentically within intimate relationships (inclusive of non-monogamy), and explore the development of sexual attraction and gender identity over the life course. I help many people heal from sexual harm and live more authentic lives from a holistic perspective.

Not currently accepting clients. Relationships are everything, aren’t they? For better or for worse, the people in our lives shape who we are and the way we experience the world. Whether you're dealing with a current challenging relationship – a kid, parent, romantic partner, or someone else – or you’re struggling to make sense of hurtful relationships from your past, let’s help you get to the bottom of what is holding you back.
