Therapists in Derry, NH

I am a graduate of Southern New Hampshire University working toward licensure under the supervision of our director Steven Durost. I have experience in both community mental health as well as in private practice through my internship experience here at C.R.E.A.T.E! I have worked with a diverse group of clients of all age groups. In my free time, I enjoy theater, music, video games, and reading, and I love anything to do with animals. My goal as a therapist is to be open and accessible to anyone who feels like they would benefit from counseling, and I strive to do so in a way that is unique to each of my clients.

I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to make change and want to find ways to gain greater control of their lives. I believe impactful changes can be made for anyone who has a willingness to explore themselves on a deeper level including their personal history, relationships, coping skills, triggers, hopes and dreams. I believe it's important to maintain consistency in meetings, clear identification of goals and ways to measure personal success. I'm more than willing to dig into techniques that work best for a client and enjoy when people bring their own interests, passions, and ideas into sessions.

I believe that therapy works best when a client is ready for change. Therapy should be a collaborative process between client and therapist. Client strengths, stressors, triggers, symptoms and environmental factors need to be explored in order to create insight. This insight, in turn, assists the client in establishing positive coping skills in order to create a happier and more fulfilling life. Change can be a difficult and intimidating process, but with the courage and strength of the client, anything is possible. Part of my role is to assist clients in understanding unhealthy patterns of behavior that can make them feel "stuck".

Are you stuck in a cycle of thought patterns or behaviors that are negatively impacting your well-being? Do you feel anxious, ashamed, disconnected, or depressed, and wish you could break away from these patterns?
