Attachment-based Therapists in Plympton, MA

Balancing the challenges of work, school, and home life can be overwhelming. Are you tired of coming home at the end of another long day and finding yourself exhausted and distant from your loved ones? Are daily stressors getting in the way of you enjoying the activities and people you love most? Does self-care feel like an afterthought as long as that assignment is hanging over your head? Without support and strategies to help balance your time and manage your anxieties, you’re likely headed towards burnout. Perhaps you’re already there.

My honest, straightforward, and solution-focused style is based on experience as well as my passion in working with individuals who are interested in bettering themselves and finding positive solutions to any challenges they may face. My many years of experience in the mental health field working with children, adolescents and their families and having worked in various settings, has enhanced my ability to adapt to each client's individual needs. Believing that everyone's healing path is different, I utilize this experience to offer diverse approaches to address the different needs, struggles, and goals that each individual may have.

I earned a Bachelor's degree in psychology from University of Massachusetts, Lowell, in 1989. I obtained my Master's degree in mental health counseling form Suffolk University in 1993. I completed my certification in graduate studies in counseling at Lesley University in 2006.

Deciding to seek out therapy can be difficult and making a connection with the right person even more so. Knowing something about the person you are hoping can help you can make the start of the process easier. I began working in the field at 16 for an afterschool program at an outside placement school, things progressed from there. From then to now I completed a BS in Business and an MEd in Counseling & School Adjustment, I obtained an LCMHC in NH and LMHC in MA. I have worked with individuals, couples and families in many settings including schools, residential programs, detention settings, office settings and in the community.

Are you interested in disentangling from longstanding patterns or opening up to what's next in your life? In my therapy practice, I use a supportive yet challenging stance to help people gain new perspective and learn strategies to allow them to have their temperament and strengths work for them, rather than against them. I aim to work with clients to create an engaged, dynamic therapy experience that can allow people to comfortably explore and deepen their understanding of thoughts, behaviors and feelings and disentangle from habits and thoughts that get in the way of experiencing life and relationships fully.

Serving kids, teens, and young adults. I use a person-centered strengths based approach in counseling practice. Clients are able to utilize their strengths to identify strategies and coping skills to manage their needs, and maximize new coping skills as their human development unfolds. I believe in the importance of establishing a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship, where people feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences as they grow into the best version of themselves.

I use holistic & integrative modalities to help clients work through challenges while providing support & resources along the way.

Therapy is an act of strength, hope, and resiliency. Even the happiest and most well-adjusted people may encounter problems resulting from unexpected life challenges and demands. My goal is to work in collaboration and partnership with my clients to bring about positive changes, growth, and healing from past painful events. I have 15 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist. I received both my Master's degree and Continued Advanced Graduate Study Degree in Counseling Psychology from Cambridge College.
