Culturally Sensitive Therapists in Ipswich, MA

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is to understand your own story. Trauma, anxiety, depression, or just life stress in general can leave us feeling uncertain about our lives and apprehensive about what the future might hold. I'm here to help you make sense of the puzzle pieces in your life and to help you create a clearer view of your future and what brings you happiness. I'm deeply committed to making sure you feel seen, heard and understood. I've worked in a variety of settings in the mental health field over the years including roles providing family therapy, crisis work in hospital settings, and group therapy.

I view therapy as a conversation that puts you in touch with your inner voice and guides you in using its wisdom to make changes. I am warm and down to earth, and I use humor to create a space where you can be yourself while exploring new possibilities for your life. I offer a culturally-sensitive and collaborative approach to helping clients find joy and meaning in their lives. This can happen by navigating a life transition, resolving a relationship conflict, healing from trauma, or managing depression, stress, or anxiety.

I believe that we all have the ability to overcome life's challenges, heal trauma and move forward through difficult times. We are not defined by our symptoms or problems and all situations can serve as a learning experience and an opportunity to grow to our fullest potential. I utilize a variety of clinical techniques for short term and long term therapy based on the individual needs of my clients.

Many people come to therapy looking for a place where they can be themselves and share their thoughts and feelings openly, without fear of judgement. I have been providing this kind of open and caring therapeutic environment to my clients throughout my career. In my work, I feel it is crucial to get to know my clients and the environment they are living in. I'm passionate about working with those who are interested in having a deeper understanding of how their past and current experiences are impacting them and working together to move forward in a productive and positive way.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over ten years' experience working with clients coping with trauma, depression, anxiety and grief. I have specific expertise in working with veterans, service members and military families; family members who are worried about a loved one's substance use; and those coping with grief and loss. I also have particular interest in working with pregnant and post-partum women.

My intention is to help you feel seen and heard in the ways you prefer, create space to experience choice and possibility in response to life problems, and to nurture hope. I have experience meeting with people of various identities and backgrounds, dealing with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, stress and conflict, school, work, and relationship issues, life changes and transitions, grief and loss, the impact of trauma and abuse, and navigating stressful life experiences and emotions. Many people I meet with are high schoolers, college and graduate students, and young professionals.
