Therapists in Lanesborough, MA

Hello for and thank you for taking the time to view my profile. Excited to say I am currently accepting clients! I offer compassionate, heart-and-soul-centered, nonjudgmental, supportive, strengths-based therapy in the comfort of your own home via telehealth. I work with teens, kids, families, parents, individuals and couples. I am trained at Simmons College and Harvard Medical School. You deserve the BEST! I became a therapist because I LOVE PEOPLE and I want to support you becoming the person you always wanted to be. I am not adverse to walking through tough stuff and lingering issues from the past and present that need healing.

I have been practicing for over 30 years in many capacities as a clinical supervisor, consultant,coordinator and director of programs in residential and community mental health clinics. I am absolutely humbled and respect clients" resiliency and courage as they confront their various life stressors.

My special focus is on our future - children. We need healthy and functional individuals to take us into the future. I support child clients to examine the challenges they face, to preserve their agency and develop strategies to manage their moods. And I extend that support to every client I work with no matter their age.

I work with clients from 6 to 90 years old who are looking to learn to live their life in a healthy manner, who wants to improve the quality of their relationships in a personal and Laboral life. This include kids, adolescents, young adults, and adults, married or single, living alone or in a family setting.

I believe that we all have the inner resources and strength to overcome our challenges. By using mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, family systems theory, and often a solutions focused approach, I help individuals see their strengths and develop the skills they need to succeed. I believe behavior is always a source of communication, and the more mindful we can be of our actions the greater our ability will be to make effective change in our life. We all deserve the opportunity to become the best version of ourselves. Together, we will learn and create the tools that work best for you so you can live your best life.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who has extensive experience treating children, adolescents, and adults. I am a Registered Play Therapist. I utilize an eclectic combination of CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness Meditation, Hypnosis, EMDR, Play and/or art.

In life we all need hope, validation, just to know that today, "this too shall pass." I strive to connect with individuals with honesty, warmth, and empathy. When one makes that decision to seek emotional guidance, I understand the vulnerability and the bravery of that moment. While allowing one to take the time they need to reach their desires of the heart and/or identify what one desires through a space of compassion and mindfulness.

Welcome! I believe that the relationship between me and my clients is the foundation on which, together, we will help you to understand yourself better, realize the patterns that are holding you back, and make the changes that you decide are enriching for your life. A large portion of my practice focuses on work with clients who struggle with issues related to trauma, attachment, and interpersonal wounding. This has led to an extensive background in many different disorders and presentations. In addition to working with individual clients, I also work with parents, including adoptive parents.

Some people struggle for weeks, months, or even years before considering psychotherapy. And it makes sense — it's hard to confide in a stranger and can take a while to find the right fit. We want authenticity and experience in a therapist but also someone relatable and easy to talk with. When couples counseling, family therapy, or child/adolescent support is needed, the search may seem even more daunting. We need a clinician with the interpersonal skills, temperament, and adaptability to forge a meaningful connection with our partners, children, and the networks who support them.

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.

We all have wounds to heal. Trauma is universal and each person has their own unique journey of healing and reintegration. Having learned this universal truth, I have chosen empathy, openness, and heart-centered care as key elements of my approach as a therapist and life coach.

My desire is to help clients create a more positive and productive life experience in order to transform their lives and break the cycle of self-defeating behaviors. Life is not meant to be just endured, but enjoyed. We all deserve a chance to reach our fullest potential despite experiences which have created limited core beliefs and hold us back in self- destructive patterns of depression, anxiety, fear, and guilt. I believe that therapy should be a collaborative experience.

Hello, welcome to my page. I am a graduate from Westfield State University with a Master's in Social Work. I currently hold a license in individual clinical social work (LICSW). I am passionate about integrated behavioral health which encourages the integration of mental health and whole-body health. I love the work I do and am inspired by the lives of everyday people.

I offer evidence-based, client centered, treatments delivered with compassion, humor and intelligence. My job satisfaction comes from seeing large changes in my clients over a short period of time. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and include elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Art Therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a psychosocial intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for improving mental health. Guided by empirical research, CBT focuses on the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in cognitions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation.
