Therapists in Waquoit, MA

All people are innately good & have the ability to heal themselves. Stressors are ever present in our everyday lives & are manifested in multiple ways. While these stressors can be the genesis of our problems, they are also the catalyst to starting the healing process. With a focus on life transitions, relationship distresses, traumatic experiences & other psychological concerns, we will in our collaborative work improve resiliency, empower, & restore. I consider myself an active therapist, combining experience, education, creativity, & a sense of humor with a down-to-earth approach to counseling in treating the whole person.

Our humanity connects us through common experiences which impact our choices, leading to individual and unique stories. These stories often contain narratives of stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, loss and grief. Yet, throughout these stories are also stories of strength, resilience, and hope. My treatment philosophy focuses on identifying a client’s strengths, support systems and resources, interests and abilities -to shore up the foundation upon which strategies and skills can be built to improve a person’s sense of self and confidence to work towards achieving their goals.

Have you ever wondered if you could live a fuller, happier life? Whether you are "too far gone" or "too messed up" to ever be okay? I’ve wondered that. In my journey, I've discovered that it's possible to struggle deeply, then rise higher than seems plausible. I've also found healing and wholeness is impossible without support from others. Now I have a passion to provide the care I've experienced to each of my clients. The support you need won't be the same as what I’ve needed. Because your story is not mine. But if you’re looking for someone who has walked a long road to wellness, consider reaching out!

Taking steps towards seeking support can be overwhelming yet empowering. As your therapist, I provide empathetic listening while using a person-centered, holistic approach to help create a happier life. I work with people from adolescence through adulthood, and my specialties include trauma, relationships, and perinatal health. My goal in working together is to create a space where you can explore and process areas of your life in a safe, non-judgmental way. We will explore a number of evidenced-based techniques to help address problematic thought patterns or behaviors in hopes to achieve a better quality of life!

Daytime Mon-Tue sessions available now! Welcome to Whole Family Health. I believe that the entire family needs support when something is off balance. I recognize that everyone has their own unique needs and way of operating in the world. Sometimes this doesn't fit the world around us; sometimes that means helping to change the individual and sometimes that means helping to change the world. I hope to be able to sit down and listen to your experience and your needs. We all build our families with hopes and dreams for how we imagine life will be. Sometimes this doesn't go exactly as we planned.

Accepting New Clients: Welcome, I’m glad you’re here! Initiating change may be one of the hardest and strongest steps you can take. I work with people facing an array of mental health concerns, and have a specialty in helping people heal from relational trauma. I find we are most often hurt in the context of relationships - a break-up, infidelity, emotional, physical or sexual abuse, being made to feel you are unloved. You may feel overwhelmingly anxious, disconnected or over-attached to loved-ones, or unable to trust. Maybe you begin isolating yourself from friendships or engaging in relationships you know aren’t healthy for you.

In these times of uncertainty and change, I am offering a space of hope and connection. I believe that therapy is a space to be seen and valued - a space to slow down, reflect, and engage in vulnerability. I understand the unique challenges faced by POC and immigrants, such as navigating cultural differences, acculturation stress, and intergenerational conflicts. In addition, I have a focus on working with college students and working professionals. In our work, we'll explore how cultural factors intersect with your mental health, nurturing a strong sense of identity, helping you to navigate life's complexities.

Change is hard. And change within ourselves is even harder. Therapy can help with finding answers. It can be a place to explore barriers and challenges to living fully into the life you want. Therapy can help with identifying patterns in our lives, both good ones and bad, with recognizing our strengths, and with where we struggle. Therapy can be a place where we can find our way back to who we really are, supporting our hopes, dreams, values and strengths in living into our lives fully.

Life can be very challenging at times. Often, we find ourselves in places, wondering how did I get here? Or not again? Although the details may be different, you will find repeated themes in your life. The first step in solving any problem is to identify the problem. We will work together to gain an understanding of: why you are where you are at this time in your life, what you would like to change, and learn the tools needed in order to effectively make the changes and establish long and short term goals.

Are you a first time parent and feeling overwhelmed? Are you struggling to balance it all? Do you miss having time for yourself? Are you wondering if what you're feeling is normal? You are not alone. I started For a Season Counseling because this is what so many mothers feel, but are afraid to talk about. Media, friends and even our own expectations can make parenting feel and look easy. The reality is that many struggle in silence and can be made to feel ashamed for sharing how they really feel.

You may have been emotionally, sexually, verbally, physically abused and/or neglected. You may be a survivor of Parental Alienation, another form of abuse; a child or the targeted parent.
