Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Groveland, MA

Mental Health and Wellness! Are you struggling with ADHD symptoms; diagnosed, unmanaged, or untreated? Do you know about RSD (Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria) and how it relates to ADHD? Do you have depression or trauma related to you relationships or family. Are you using drugs and alcohol to manage anxiety and depression, or trauma? During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

Welcome! I enjoy helping others that are struggling with life's stressors, anxiety, depression and ADHD. I am well versed in raising children with mental, behavioral and ASD challenges, along with helping others navigate systems of care. I enjoy partnering with individuals working through transitions in their lives, whether it's changing jobs, working on a marriage, leaving a domestic violence situation, advocating for services for children, or trying to just make it through the day. Feel free to reach out and I look forward to working with you! I am telehealth only and can see anyone in Massachusetts. You are not alone,

Are you struggling with anxiety, sadness or stress? Are you trying to juggle multiple areas of your life, feeling overwhelmed and want to talk it through? Do you have a new baby at home and struggling with the transition while trying to feel "like myself" again? Are you a parent looking for support because sometimes it feels like a lot (because let's face it, it is)? Looking for the “right” therapist and a good therapeutic match can feel daunting at times so thank you for reading my profile.

Plain and simply put, life can be hard! You may be struggling with stress, anxiety, depression or even just the mental load of day-to-day life. Together, we can get you unstuck. With hard work and perseverance, “Let’s Talk, Psychotherapy + Coaching” will get you through the difficult times and into a happier and healthier headspace.

You are not meant to face your struggles all alone. We all have inner strength and skills to cope when life becomes challenging. It takes courage for us to connect with others in these times. Ideally we should all have someone with compassion & wisdom to listen carefully and provide feedback that allows you to heal and grow from the pressure you are currently under. I work with others, as a partner in their experience, to give perspective and guidance that can bring relief and even joy to one's life. When working with me, you would be the one who sets the pace and benefit from my 30 years of continual learning & guiding others.

Life is sometimes difficult. If you realize that you are hurting and find that life is just not the way you would like it to be, it would be my pleasure to help you to find renewed hope in the midst of the challenges. Situations such as anxiety, panic, trauma, depression, challenges with relationships and tough memories related to childhood abuse can be worked through. These--and many other concerns--are all good reasons to begin a journey toward a more meaningful and purposeful life. I will offer you empathy, creativity and humor in the midst of the process.

Nobody ever said parenting was easy, but should it really be this hard? That nervous feeling in the pit of your stomach. Mind racing. You’re exhausted, stressed and don't know where to go next. If you are a parent seeking support for yourself or your child, I have rolling availability for online classes, groups, and workshops.

I am competent in working with different cultural perspectives and views. Some of my clients see me for coaching on goal setting, problem solving, relationship issues, motivation, business or career questions. I work extensively with addiction, including alcohol, drug, shopping, gambling, and smoking cessation. Other clients see me for Depression, Anxiety, and family issues. In addition, I work with clients to change core beliefs formed in childhood to help them live happier lives. I counsel couples to teach them how to be respectful yet effective with one another, resolve issues express feelings, and make different choices.

Just a little about myself. I have been working in the social work field since 2011 and providing direct therapy to children, adults, teens and couples for the last 8 years. My approach is very client centered in that I want to help you to become the best version of yourself, whatever that looks like to YOU! It is not my job or desire to "tell you what to do" but instead help guide you to the answers to what would make you feel happier, healthier, more stable in your life.

Empowerment is the key to change and personal growth. I believe that we each carry within us the core skills and abilities needed to address lifes challenges, but that too often we become distanced from our talents and loose sight of our innate strengths and unique skills. Through the use of an empathic, compasionate listening style, a good sense of humor and an eclectic set of clinical skills my goal is to help people become reacquainted with their core strengths and to help them develop the skills and confidence with which to pursue their dreams, whatever they may be!

I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with experience working with adults and adolescents. I have worked in schools, behavioral health centers and health centers for much of my career. My ideal client is someone who is struggling to deal with the unpredictability of life transitions. They may be experiencing feelings of stress, anxiety and uncertainty as they navigate changes such as starting a new job, ending a relationship, suffering from a loss, relocating, or entering a new phase of life.
