Therapists in Milton Village, MA

My goal is to provide ketamine infusion therapy as a deeply committed mission to transform lives and promote mental health. With two decades of diverse healthcare experience, I've seen the profound impact of mental illness and the limitations of conventional treatments. Ketamine infusion therapy offers hope and healing, aligning with my holistic approach to healthcare. My mission is to offer safe, compassionate, and effective care tailored to each individual's unique needs, with a focus on supporting their path to recovery and a brighter future.

I have been working with families and couples in various configurations and locations since 1972. In addition to being a Licensed Family Therapist, I am also a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, and Nationally Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. I have taught courses in Ethics, Substance Abuse, Sexuality, and other subjects in the Graduate School Of Counseling at UMass/Boston. Primarily, my work is about family and couple relationships. In 2012, I was awarded the Schiller Prize for my work with fathers, daughters, and sexuality by AASECT. I am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, and train therapists.

I value the therapeutic alliance, striving for a collaborative, flexible, and safe journey as we work together on your unique path. I use a holistic approach, implementing both traditional psychology and spirituality/metaphysics to help achieve your goals, develop coping skills, gain insights, and build a sense of empowerment. Common areas explored in my practice revolve around themes such as anxiety/depression, grief, life purpose, relationships, existential meaning, healing, and much more.

There are many reasons we might seek psychotherapy. We might want more or better for ourselves. We may be ready for change but something is stopping us. Perhaps we are grappling with a change, challenge, or uncertainty already upon us. The people I work with face challenges at various life stages, including those related to depression, anxiety, chronic/acute trauma, cultural conflicts, relationships, motherhood, high-pressure academic and work environments, entrepreneurship, and loss.

Do you ever come out a situation and find yourself questioning your emotional reactions? Do you ever find yourself playing mental gymnastics to avoid causing anyone discomfort only to then realize that you're utterly exhausted and have no spoons left for yourself? Maybe you're trying to make sense of your identity, navigate the world as BIPOC/queer/neurodiverse etc. while trying to simultaneously build healthy relationships, set boundaries, process past traumas, and exist in a capitalist society where your productivity is a measure of your validity (spoiler alert it's not; you're valid and your existence is more than enough).

You don't have to go it alone. Are you an older adult or the caregiver for a parent or spouse? Struggling to keep your balance while dealing with chronic illness or pain? Have you lost a loved one or had a major life change? All of these challenges bring fatigue, isolation, loneliness, and feelings of loss. With help, you can better understand your feelings and better meet your challenge. If you are stressed and feeling burnt out, depressed, or weighed down by anxiety, reach out for help. In therapy, you can get the support that you need to build on your strengths and thrive. Serving adults of all ages and the LGBTQ+ community

Openings available for Individuals. Welcome. With warmth, clarity and compassion, I offer help to people suffering from "Wounds of the Heart and Mind": Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, neglect and relationship issues, in both groups and individual. With many years experience in both traditional and mind/body approaches, I integrate Relational Attachment work, Buddhist psychology, Childhood Trauma healing groups and energy medicine practices . I believe that along with real pain and suffering, everyone has a potential healthy Self; often obscured or undeveloped. We can build, hold and nurture that together.

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 know firsthand the profound healing power of mindbody medicine: after decades disempowered by pain, I got my life back, only better. I am here to help empower others so they too can reclaim lives of meaning & joy.

Change and loss are a natural part of life, but these transitions can be hard. Lately you've been feeling stressed and overwhelmed, isolated and alone, or even empty inside. You feel stuck and wonder when you will feel like yourself again. Whether you are grieving the death of a loved one or facing another kind of loss, you don’t have to walk this path alone. When you work with me, you'll receive compassionate attention, direct feedback, and individualized support. We'll collaborate to understand your story, explore what may be holding you back, and discover pathways to help you move forward on your journey.

Currently Accepting Clients. Are you struggling? Have you recently experienced a loss or a failure? Is that depression stubbornly refusing to lift? Are you exhausted by anxiety? Re-experiencing grief, trauma symptoms and relationship difficulties? Do you find it difficult to sleep? Mental well-being and physical health are intertwined, so it's critically important to take care of your mental health without delay.

The original roots of psychotherapy stem from tending to the soul and over time this truth has been forgotten. In collaboration, we will develop a space that honors your roots and all your experiences. We are at a very vulnerable time on the planet while also being in this place of individual and collective initiation.. Climate anxiety and climate grief are also realities today that we are all trying to navigate. Exploring and cultivating a path that illuminates all of your gifts, and strengths while seeding new ideas and opportunities.

I approach each client with the assumption that you are coming to me with an intention to alleviate discontentment or suffering. I see my job as helping you articulate your reasons for seeking therapy, to understand the source of your issues, and to find strategies that bring relief. My style is interactive, with an emphasis on caring and supportive feedback. I expect the client to establish the agenda for each session, trusting that the client knows best what needs to be addressed in any given session. I emphasize psychoeducation about the role of, and differences between, thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

It's finally time to make changes... It takes great courage to recognize that you're caught in patterns that keep you stuck and unhappy. And even more courage to reach out for support. I have worked with many people during difficult times to create meaning, ease and clarity in their lives, even in their darkest moments. I specialize in working with people who struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, chronic pain, and eating disorders as well as those who suffer in the aftermath of trauma. I also work with the GLBTQ community.

As psychotherapist, coach, and career counselor, I'm committed to helping you find wholeness through cognitive, insight-oriented, behavioral, mind-body and mindfulness approaches. I have worked for over three decades assisting clients with both the practical and emotional issues change often requires. During Covid-19 you may decide to focus on: contingency planning if your organization should fold; work on your resume; ramping up virtual networking; learning additional stress management techniques; support with emotional challenges; creative ways to deal with isolation and loneliness.

Ready to make some changes? Sometimes it's really hard for us to ask for help-especially when you're strong & independent.Therapy is a great way to affect personal change, learn more about yourself, and grow through any challenges you might be facing.I help women through the transition of pregnancy, birth, & early parenting, and dealing with any postpartum mood issues. I also help women who want to change their relationship with food and their bodies. Clients also see me for managing anxiety & depression. For trauma work, I like to use Brainspotting/EFT. I also offer online therapy in MA, CA, CT, FL,& AZ.

The strongest people have the vulnerability ask for help. Whether you recently feel stuck or believe that you past is holding you back from truly experiencing the present, I can assist you in your healing. I enjoy working with clients that have been survivors of all types of trauma, experience grief, have addictive tendencies or struggle in relationships. Clients would be best served by me when they are motivated to make internal and external changes in order to create more harmony in their lives. Ultimately, I would like you to leave our sessions feeling good about our relationship and the relationship you have with yourself.

Do trauma, anxiety or depression keep you from the life you want? Do you struggle to understand and gain a healthy sense of control over your own behavior, including substance and process addictions, such as drugs, alcohol, food, and codepency? I also have worked extensively with adolescent and adult clients with ADHD on goal-setting and developing strategies for success.
