Therapists in Buzzards Bay, MA

It is strange and often hard to be a human being. I walk alongside my clients amidst life's chaos to demystify each client's unique inner world. I encourage clients to get curious about their symptoms rather than to judge or condemn them. I am passionate about couples work in particular, as this is my current specialty/focus. I earned my MA in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara, CA, where I studied dream/imaginal work & unconscious processes. My work is primarily psychodynamic & depth-oriented - striving to uncover what has been forgotten, digging deep, & viewing all parts of self as valuable

Experienced in relational trauma, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and anxiety in youth and young adults, I also work extensively with parents battling a loss of identity, mood changes, and increased worry. I aim to shift focus and help parents celebrate their children, creating an opportunity for connection. Parents learn to acknowledge their past traumas and patterns to address inherited dynamics and identify successes they can reflect on. I assist in identifying what is working and building on strengths. The end goal is a renewed parental sense of identity and clarity and a more united and understanding family unit.

With life becoming increasingly demanding, it can feel like we are always battling on a new frontier. We do not, however, have to power through it alone!

My therapeutic approach is to create an accepting relationship so sessions can be a comfortable and judgment free zone.

I am looking forward to working with clients who are self-aware or interested in learning how to be more open to building up their self-interest. I'm happy to help clients recognize their struggles and the importance of seeking support.

With these foundations in place, we can develop clear goals centered around reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health issues.

There is no real ‘cure’ for being a human being. But in therapy, there can be support, exploration and development of skills that let us live a more meaningful and manageable life. Perspective of another, more objective person, can help. When you are in the movie, you can't watch it.

As you may already know, these difficulties make it hard to function in your daily roles including work, family social and/or academic progress.

“I don’t want to talk about it!” “You wouldn't understand!”...sound familiar? Sometimes your children don’t understand what may be happening either, and communicating that can feel impossible.

I am a hearing therapist fluent in ASL and also specialize in working with deaf youth using play. Play therapy utilizes a variety of interventions, including playing with toys and miniatures or using more expressive art and movement.

Asking for help can be daunting, even looking for help can show that you are ready for change. As a therapist I believe that a healthy therapeutic relationship is one of the biggest tools when searching for change. So let's do the heavy lifting together by using a client-centered approach and creating a safe space for you to be authentically yourself. Life has a series of changes that we don't often get a crash course in, let's make sure you are well supported during that change.
