Adoption Therapists in Weymouth, MA

Preparing for and starting a family is one of the biggest transitions you will make in your lifetime. Sometime this period of transition does not go as planned and it can feel overwhelming, filled with anxiety, grief, and isolation. Can you relate to this but find yourself pretending like everything is ok? Do you feel alone in your struggles? It can feel liberating to seek help and healing to share your story in a safe environment.

My clinical environment is warm and nurturing but I like to be productive in therapy. I want you to get better. My practice is very comfortable and relaxed. We try to make everyone feel welcome. I want you to feel like you are taking a momentary break from the stress of the world and taking some deep breaths. I am currently taking nursing school classes completing my requirements for my doctorate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My degree is in children and families.

It takes a brave and courageous person to know when they need support and currently you are taking the first big step! At different chapters in our lives, we come across certain challenges that we look towards others to assist us in processing our thoughts and feelings. I am passionate and a complete honor in assisting others during life transitions, self-esteem/perfectionism, anxiety, depression, and during the perinatal realm that includes: parenting, family conflicts, loss, infertility, pregnancy and perinatal mood disorders.

Heal As You Grow is a group practice who strives to be a collaborative therapeutic environment welcoming all who come. Although every clinician has their own unique style, as a whole we provide a safe place for clients to be heard, accepted, and supported in this journey towards healing and growth.

Therapy can be a great tool whether you're feeling depressed or anxious, having trouble dealing with stress or stuck in a rut. Just as each individual is unique, so is each course of therapy. I recently relocated to Longmeadow from the Boston area where I've been providing therapy since 2005. I work with individuals, children, teens, college students and families. You will find that my style is compassionate, non-judgmental and empowering.

I provide a warm, attentive, and interactive psychotherapy relationship that aims to help people deepen their self-understanding, break out of hurtful patterns, and develop new modes of thinking, feeling, and relating to others that will reduce depression and anxiety. I am particularly interested in trying to help clients feel freer, more real, more connected, and more like the authors of their own lives, so that they can achieve what they hope for in work and relationships.

For me, psychotherapy must address the needs of the person. Sometimes this can mean exploring how you got to the point you are at, and how you want to change; and sometimes you may want specific tools to address a very specific issue. Finding the right therapist is perhaps one of the most important choices you will make and also one of the most difficult. Although a therapist may have an armory of techniques to use, what I have found to be at the heart of any type of psychotherapy is whether the relationship works between you and your therapist.

Life is a journey, and from time to time, we all face challenges that we would benefit from discussing with a thoughtful and compassionate listener. I am such a person, plus I own this practice. While I believe therapy is a collaborative enterprise, I also believe when successful, therapy requires an active and experienced guide. I enjoy working with clients struggling with a variety of personal, family, and mental health issues. I have more than 20 years experience working as a therapist. My therapy orientation is eclectic though my foundation is psychodynamic and strengths based.
