Therapists in South Weymouth, MA

At Soul Sprout Mindful Care, we are dedicated to helping you and your family achieve Mental Health. We believe that Mental Health is just as important as physical health, and we treat it as such. We are committed to providing therapeutic services including individual outpatient therapy, family outpatient therapy, and couples outpatient therapy. A therapist will work with you to develop a treatment plan, with interventions tailored specifically to your needs. We believe that you should be heard, and we take supporting you very seriously.

I believe the first step to helping people with their unique challenges is to build a connection founded on compassion, collaboration, and respect. To me, the therapeutic relationship acts as the foundation of a successful treatment plan. My goal is to act as support and encouragement as you face challenges, heal, seek out positive change, or search for a deeper understanding of yourself. I'm a bilingual therapist and provide services in English or Spanish while utilizing a dynamic style of treatment that combines aspects of CBT, talk therapy, person-centered therapy, art, writing, goal setting, meditation, and more.

My ideal clients are interested in improving their self awareness of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I treat any of the following issues: depression, anxiety, anger, substance abuse, relationship issues, sexual behaviors, trauma, domestic violence, low self-esteem, eating disorders, attention deficit difficulties, autism, schizophrenia, stress management, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, child behavior and attitude problems, school behavior, low motivation, weight loss, quitting smoking, grief and loss of a loved one, divorce, parenting issues, co-dependency, pain management, social skills development, bi-polar disorder, abusive family situations, work problems, shame/inappropriate guilt, and negative thinking but treat many more issues.

In our work together my clients heal from within. Why? Because with deep core work, you will change old familiar brain paths into newly chosen authentic brain paths. You will experience breakthrough counseling with tools for life, attaining deep self love, developing new ways of thinking and feeling, being in charge of your brain, fearlessly listening within, learning helpful communication, and understanding choices from a new perspective. Over 20 years in private practice I designed about 250 exercises for helping my clients heal. For couples, we do the same core work. All but one couple found renewed love.

My therapeutic style is warm, open and supportive; and my hope is to create a safe, non-judgmental space. I am an eclectic clinician, but tend to borrow heavily from humanistic, person-centered, strengths-based work. I share these styles through the expressive art therapies. It is my fundamental ethic and value to view my clients as whole, and who are made up of a multitude of gifts, talents and strengths. I have many years experience working with adults, young adults and teens.. Is your child having difficulty with self-esteem, mental health, and coping abilities? I am here to help you.

As a holistic spiritual psychotherapist, expressive art therapist and licensed mental health counselor, I partner with people of all ages to ease depression & anxiety, assist with grief counseling, and guide major life transitions. I also have two post-graduate certificates in trauma. My traditional psychotherapy practice consists of many teens and adults in my quaint office overlooking Barnstable Harbour.

I am deeply curious about human relationships; the conditions that make them mutually satisfying and joyful as well as how they can go wrong leaving people feeling in pain, lonely or unworthy. My practice consists of couples and adults whose relationships with themselves and/or others are in disrepair. We all have many relationships. Yet, the more personal and intimate they are, the more distressing and challenging they can be at one time or another. I encourage individuals and couples looking to discover greater relational joy and willing to look both inward and outward for more satisfying life solutions to contact me.

Everybody is born with the capacity to enjoy life, to feel empowered, and to be healthy in mind, body, and spirit. Unfortunately, certain life circumstances such as abusive and toxic relationships, family conflict, trauma, failure, and loss can prevent people from feeling hopeful, worthy, or successful. In a supportive and nurturing environment, I have dedicated my career to helping others develop the positive habits, spiritual tools, and healthy thinking needed for them to heal and succeed.

Psychotherapy is a good, honest, and interesting conversation amongst equals. It is a guided journey of self-awareness to reclaim our authenticity. We activate inner resources through storytelling, so to gain new perspectives about ourselves, and others. We are not mechanically determined by our past. Imagination opens creative alternatives reinforcing a sense of realistic hope. The goal is to achieve meaning, and purpose in all the spheres of our existence.

My style is curious, collaborative and nonjudgmental. Seeing the best in people and respecting client's needs and pace, creates a safe and comfortable space where people feel heard and understood. I listen for what is needed and helpful in the moment, move clients toward stress reduction, and through conflict resolution, life transitions and other relationship issues. I offer tools and homework for healing and change. The tools are aimed at creating: respectful relationships, positive communication, collaboration, improved personal performance, enhancing personal authority and creating a more grounded sense of self in relationships.

How do we remain hopeful with so much uncertainty, inequality, and suffering in the world? How do we take care of ourselves while also supporting others? How do we practice compassion? How do we accept those parts of ourselves (and of others) that are so often judged by our society? These are some of the kinds of questions I often pose to clients as we explore how our individually-lived experiences, coupled with larger historic and systemic trends, often influence the ways we understand and feel about our lives. My work with clients is rooted in a greater commitment to social justice issues.

My mission is to help my clients to explore some of their issues that are encountering, guide them to gain awareness of their mind, body and emotions/ behavior. My hope is also to create a safe, judgement -free environment space for my clients, building together a therapeutic relationship.
