Cancer Therapists in Ayer, MA

I work with individuals, couples, and families to address concerns with relationships, identity, intimacy and sexuality, and spirituality, in addition to general psychological problems. My approach to therapy is active, relational, and result-oriented, encouraging clients take hold of their life and find the meaning that life holds for them. I have served as an instructor at Harvard Medical School and Psychologist at the Cambridge Health Alliance for more than 25 years. And have been serving on the Advisory Board of the Dr. Phil Show, since its inception. (See drchirban.com and swampscottpsychologicalassociates.com)

Offering a compassionate, safe place in which you can explore current life challenges that may be difficult to face alone. Relationship conflicts, separations, loss, job changes, eating problems and other addictions, medical illness, mid-life and other transitions often require working in partnership with someone who can help you find your own inner resources to move forward in your life. I have thirty-six years of experience as a medical practitioner working with diverse populations, including college students, young, middle age and older adults. I bring that experience to my psychotherapy work, recognizing the whole person, mind, body and spirit.

Hi I'm Jill, a Mental Health Counselor licensed in Massachusetts with 20 years experience.

I am a certified pain coach trained in Pain Reprocessing Therapy, the Curable curriculum on pain neuroscience, Emotional Awareness & Expression Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Health & Wellness Coaching, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. I teach clients evidence-based tools emerging from cutting-edge pain neuroscience so that they can learn to calm their own nervous systems, and subsequently, their own pain.

I am here to help empower others so they too can reclaim lives of meaning & joy.

I have had a private therapy practice in Andover and Westford, Ma. for nearly 30 years. During this time, I have worked with those struggling with a variety of concerns including relationships, parenting, identity, work and careers, depression, anxiety, trauma, school and education, gender, and cultures. Generally, the individuals, couples, and families with whom I work come to my office in some sort of pain or discomfort as they move back and forth between their real and ideal lives.The conversations we have shed light on what is happening and to try to help reduce feelings of pain and distress.

Beginning psychotherapy, for many, requires great courage and commitment. Consequently, finding the right therapist is an important step toward addressing your goals. For nearly 30 years, as a therapist and medical consultant, I have been helping individuals overcome life's obstacles, identify and build upon their strengths, and develop tools to bring about sustainable change. Life is hard. And so is change. But change is essential for growth. I am passionate about partnering with clients to help them change/grow, help them heal, and help them fulfill their potential while developing a greater sense of meaning and well-being.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I have a passion for helping individuals reach their maximum potential and healthiest state, taking into account their current as well as past experiences. I feel passionate about working with children and adults with chronic illness as well as with those individuals dealing with loss and bereavement. I also believe strongly in the work that can be accomplished with individuals who have experienced a recent or past trauma and believe strongly in the individual's ability to achieve a healthy state with proper holistic healthcare.

Big questions my clients often come in with are "who am I now?" And "what does this life event mean for me or those around me." I have worked with many families and individuals that have gone through significant life changes due to death of a loved one or a loss of some kind. The loss could be a job, a sense of self, or a loss of a future that was impacted due to life circumstances. With any type of loss there are many complicated feelings and emotions associated with it. Through therapy, we are able to explore those big questions together.

When was the last time that you felt truly listened to, heard & understood? You more than likely talk to many people throughout your day but how often are you making connections with others that feel truly authentic? Many people are currently feeling isolated even when surrounded by others because they do not have someone in their life creating a welcoming and safe space that allows them to feel comfortable enough to share their worries & struggles. Therapy can be this place, where building a trusting relationship with a compassionate practitioner can allow you to feel seen & can support improvements in your health & well-being.

Does life feel overwhelming right now? Does just getting through the day feel like a challenge? Maybe you are feeling anxious or are struggling with past or present difficult experiences. Maybe you “have it all together” on the outside but feel lost, hopeless, disconnected, lonely, overwhelmed, or afraid on the inside. Has parenting become difficult and stressful? Or are you or your teen struggling struggling with adolescent issues? It is incredibly brave to reach out for support after trying to manage it all on your own. I would be honored to share in your journey toward healing, supporting you with empathy and acceptance.

When searching for a therapist, either for yourself or for your child, the process can be confusing and frustrating. Finding the right person may be challenging, but it will be worth the effort to find someone you are comfortable with. Ideally therapy will allow you to tell your story and get to the heart of the problems you have been facing. You will be able to build on the knowledge and strengths you already have and ultimately gain the perspective to move through your challenges.

I have been a psychotherapist for over 30 years. I strive to create a safe place for you to explore and successfully address the challenges you bring to therapy. I specialize in treating trauma (chronic or recent). I am a certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). Trauma is not necessarily a specific event, it can be the environment you breathed. I also work with depression, anxiety, hopeless grief, and communication issues.

My warmth and compassion helps build a healing environment to support internal growth. I collaborate with clients to be empowered to fulfill their personal goals and live their best life. My use of cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness as well as an eclectic approach offers a tailor-fit approach for each person to strategize and resolve challenges and conflict in their life. I offer guidance and support for each person to make empowered choices to create renewal, balance and freedom in life. I offer insight, and a non-judgmental environment to support, and teach skills necessary for growth.

I have over 25 years of experience working with most age groups from very diverse backgrounds.

I utilize approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy and Mindfulness. However most importantly, I listen carefully to my clients and adapt my approach as needed. I received my B.A. in psychology from Boston University and my MSW from Simmons University.
