Therapists in Needham Heights, MA

My approach to therapy is collaborative, strength-based, and client-centered. I believe in the healing power that exists within each individual, which is nurtured and strengthened within the context of our therapeutic relationship. I work with children, adults, and families who are facing complex struggles, including: parent-child relationship issues, transition to parenthood, postpartum difficulties, life transitions, behavior challenges, depression, anxiety, and more. My style is warm, empathic, and compassionate, and I work to create a safe environment to help you better understand and address the challenges you are facing.

Are there times when you feel anxious, sad, or uncertain? Do you have difficulty coping with your stressors and find that you often push or run away from unwanted thoughts and feelings? You have taken the brave first step to search for a clinician who may fit your needs. Clients who come to me can expect a trusting, compassionate, respectful therapeutic environment that fosters creating positive solutions. We will work together to address your unique needs and challenges in a non-judgmental, safe environment.

I'm accepting clients on a limited basis at this time. If you believe that I might be the right fit for you or your loved one, please do not hesitate to inquire within. I will do my best to accommodate. I am comfortable working with a wide range of clients. My clients seek to have a therapeutic experience that is transformative & empowering. I respect my client's right to self-determination and this is always reflected within my therapeutic approach during our sessions. My clients thrive when they feel safe, respected and always walk out of my office feeling confident that what we speak about will remain private.

Are there days where you feel like your life is completely unmanageable? Sometimes it feels like if we could just change one thing, or start one thing, then we could finally start living the life we want. This could be a short term goal such as finally organizing your home or longer term goals such as developing self confidence, or starting a weight loss journey. If you can relate to feeling stuck and needing a push to move forward, Bel Lavi Coaching is here for you.

Sometimes in life we can feel lost and unsure of where to go for help, or who to trust. I firmly believe that everyone has the ability to heal; all that’s needed is a helping hand to guide you through those first steps. I am so happy and proud to provide a safe place to encourage people to open up and feel at peace.

Breaking free from emotional and psychological wounds can be harder to heal than physical wounds! Predators come in many forms...some are covert, sneaky and manipulative, while others are bold, in your face and irrefutable!

This, while educating and coaching you on selfcare, selflove and self compassion, as you heal. I'll help you command the boundary boss living within, to emerge. Life gets stressful -I get it! Need help in striking that delicate balance in a world of uncertainties! You're in the right place.

I love to work with kids and adolescents and their families. I believe people don't have "problems" but rather "challenges" they learn to move through or re-frame. Together we learn new ways of doing things; new ways of looking at things; find a new path of our own choosing that feels better than the one we were on; relate to ourselves and others in a healthier way; learn to smile and laugh more; find the things we are good at doing; make a contribution; stress less; be who we are meant to be, and love who we are as a person!

I am an interactive, insight-oriented and solution-focused therapist. With compassion and understanding, I will work with you to help you build on your strengths, and attain the personal growth you are looking for.
