Therapists in Vermont

I provide psychotherapy that invites children, adolescents and adults who are struggling to creatively find their own path to well-being.

Through the power of your inner knowing, I'll support you to find yourself and make the changes needed to feel better.

My goal in all my work with all my different clients is to help them better understand themselves, their lives and their struggles. With honesty, compassion, warmth, humor and respect, as well as my own insights and knowledge gained from my work and my life, I help people more fully become who they wish to be. Whether their issues are behavioral, emotional, relational or involving more specific challenges, I use different strategies from different disciplines to assist my clients in reaching their goals.

Welcome. You may have arrived here seeking a sense of calm, safety, connection, confidence, clarity, motivation, or life balance. You may be grappling with difficult life transitions, relationship challenges, early parenthood, or trauma experiences that have given rise to feelings of exhaustion, sadness, isolation, fear, overwhelm, anger, or confusion. These burdens can make it hard to find joy and meaning, feel connected to loved ones, or show up in your daily life. With compassion and acceptance, I'm here to support you in healing the past, coping and thriving in the present, and taking steps towards the life you aspire to live.

In our journeys through life we experience both pleasurable and distressing events. When these events reach a level of trauma and are not processed or effectively integrated, individuals may rely on less adaptive strategies to manage discomfort, stress and change. These strategies can negatively influence the way we perceive and interact with the world and affect our intuitive nature and our intentionality for seeking meaning and experiencing joy. My practice is informed by a deeply attuned and heartfelt approach to my client’s emotional wellbeing. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, individuals, couples and families.

Throughout my years of practice my work has been enriched by all the people I have supported to experience their capacity while navigating some of life’s most difficult challenges. Now more than ever, living in a COVID-19 pandemic, facing day to day challenges can feel even more overwhelming. I believe in each person’s competence and resilience, and I am confident that I can help clients to live life to the fullest with integrity, dignity and courage. I work with families, couples and individuals from diverse backgrounds. LGBTQIA clients are welcome.

My style is collaborative and compassionate; My clients tell me that I am comfortable to be with, and easy to talk to. I work with children and adults to help them prioritize their values, identify and integrate feelings/emotions, support positive self-concept, reduce stress and worry, and work towards the client's personal, academic, relationship, wellbeing, and social-emotional goals. My work is eclectic and grounded in theory - including, Humanistic (“Whole Child’, "Whole Self"), and Psycho-dynamic (with attention to the interpersonal relationship of client and therapist as a model for meaning-making and self-reflection.).

I chose the name 'Voyagers' for this practice because I feel we are all on a journey together traveling, through time and space. I picture the metaphor of a ship navigating the open sea, riding the waves just as we do in our lives. Realistically, there will always be unavoidable waves in our lives- some larger than others- and sometimes we need a helping hand to voyage through safely in a way that embraces our unique individuality.

The qualities that characterize my practice: interactive, enlightening and change oriented. Therapy is about you and I working together to develop deeper insight into your strengths and challenges in order to develop new strategies that decrease distress and suffering. The adolescents and adults who I work with are decreasing anxiety, depression and the impact of trauma. They are learning to cope without the use of substances or self medicating and developing recovery skills.

The goals of my practice are to support the development of self-compassion, reduce suffering and increase the capacity for a meaningful life. I am a Vermont Rostered Master of Psychology specializing in the Expressive Arts Therapies. I earned my degree at Goddard College and completed my clinical internship with a community mental health agency in Vermont, The Clara Martin Center. Prior to earning my degree, I worked for mental health agencies in New England and the Midwest, facilitating Wellness programming and therapeutic farming with young adults at alternative schools in Detroit, Michigan and Western Massachusetts.

Hello - I am a counselor who is also a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse with 40 years of experience, including 20 years of practicing Clinical Hypnosis for a myriad of issues: anxiety, trauma, depression, and pain, to name but a few. I also train clinicians to utilize Clinical Hypnosis and am an Approved Consultant for the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis. I focus on finding and treating the cause of the symptoms and in this way, most symptoms are markedly reduced and, often gone altogether. As a client, you and I would team up together and work cooperatively as a team!

I am at capacity and am NOT accepting new clients at this time. Through my work as a therapist, I accompany people on a journey of self-discovery that fosters healing, promotes growth, and empowers them to overcome obstacles and challenges that stand in the way of leading fulfilling lives. I believe that an open, honest and collaborative relationship is the foundation of the therapeutic process. I work with my clients to cultivate genuine trust and rapport that makes this relationship possible.

I seek to help children, teens, and adults in need of positive support or whom may be struggling with behavior support questions, attention deficit, depression, anxiety, goal development, and family relational problems. I support personal goal coaching and provide a safe environment for exploration in a number of many other areas. I seek to bring elements of joy, comfort, and safety to the personal process of healing.

Throughout our therapeutic work together, we may explore patterns of thoughts and feelings derived from your family of origin that impacts your current life and/or relationships. Within the structure and support of our professional relationship, these patterns become more apparent and conscious, and are thus more easily understood and changed. My role is to collaborate with you to achieve a greater awareness of yourself, to develop more effective behavioral patterns and ultimately reduce undesirable or troubling emotions and interpersonal conflicts.

Today's crazy pace of life as well as the stresses of family, money, school, employment, not to mention COVID-19 and politics, it is no wonder more and more people are looking for therapeutic support to find balance in their lives. I will strive to help you find that balance, working with and building on your strengths, already present within you, but lost in the chaos of present day life in a safe, supportive environment. We will work to build coping skills to deal with every day life, when things get tough. Life is full of ups and downs. You can learn new ways to shift your perception, to build on the strengths and positives.

I believe that each client is their own best expert, and has come to counseling because they have hit a log jam or bump in the road. Often times they have unresolved issues in their past that have been triggered by current issues that have the same theme. Also, some clients come to counseling due to current situations that are more short-term. My counseling style is very respectful, collaborative, going at a pace that meets the client's needs. Validation of the client's strengths, feelings and stressors is key to helping them transcend traumas and negative experience of the past and present.
