Therapists in Dover, NH

As a cognitive behavioral therapist with over 25 years experience in the mental health field, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

As you embark on the journey of seeking therapy, I extend to you a warm and heartfelt welcome. Within the sacred space of therapy, I offer you a sanctuary—a haven where your struggles are met with compassion, your pain is held with tenderness, and your journey toward healing is honored with reverence. In our shared journey of exploration and transformation, I stand as your ally, your advocate, and your guide. Together, we embark on a collaborative odyssey—a journey of self-discovery, growth, and empowerment. Here, amidst the ebb and flow of life's complexities, you are not alone.

For close to a decade, I have been committed to treating the whole person – connecting the mind to the body – in my work with individuals experiencing addiction, anxiety, depression, attachment disorders, trauma, grief/loss, and other mental health disorders.

I work with men and women to address a wide range of concerns. I collaborate with clients to explore patterns and emotional pain, while helping to make meaning of their feelings and experiences, to result in self-awareness and healing. The counseling process allows one to identify core issues and develop more effective coping skills to result in meaningful change.

I provide assessment, treatment, & consultation in areas of domestic & sexual violence, anger management, & a variety of behavior & mental health disorders. I offer a number of weekly groups, classes and individual sessions. I have provided direct treatment & clinical oversight to children & adults in secure residential treatment settings, forensic settings, community corrections, & on an out-patient basis in New Hampshire & New York. I primarily adhere to Cognitive Therapy & Rational Emotive Therapy approaches, as well as Applied Behavior Analysis techniques.

Behavior is more complex than simple choice. Behaviors develop over time and are impacted by various internal and external factors. Our approach to facilitating behavior change recognizes that each individual's unique situation and the factors that contribute to their choices and behaviors can be understood. Together, we can use this understanding to create a plan for change. Two underutilized interventions for behavior change are cue desensitization and environmental engineering. We will join you in your environment in order to most effectively foster these changes in your life.

I provide counseling to individuals on a variety of issues including depression/anxiety,anger management, substance abuse, addiction, compulsive behaviors,and stress management. Counseling sessions are tailored to your goals: either short-term, focusing on a specific issue, or longer-term, addressing ongoing personal growth. If you are looking for ways to gain a better understanding of yourself, change old behavior patterns, learn new ways to cope with stress then counseling can help you. What you can expect from counseling is compassion, and understanding, new perspectives on negative feelings and behaviors, and strategies for creating positive changes in your life.

I personally want to welcome you in taking the first steps to bettering your life and well being! My goal in therapy is to help and assist being the best YOU—whatever that means. Therapy requires you to give and take, and the more you are open and honest about your strengths, as well as your struggles, the more meaningful the process will be. My goal is for you to not only feel a reduction of negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; but to also find the “silver linings”, the little moments of comfort and hope throughout your therapeutic experience!
