Therapists in Concord, MA

Accepting new clients for spring 2024. I am a licensed counselor who provides therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I have over 25 years experience with a range of issues concerning relationships, anxiety, life transitions, dating, stress, infidelity, betrayal trauma, sexuality, school admissions, LGBTQ issues, co-dependency, divorce, elder issues, work, and education. I provide a safe place to share concerns, develop coping strategies, and to discover inner resources that we may not have known were there. The "Goodness of Fit" between client and therapist, and the treatment modality is important to initiate results.

From over 30 years of experience, I bring a warm and interactive approach to helping you address emotional issue/s that interfere with living the life you'd like to live. These emotional issues could be depression, trauma, anxiety, divorce, grief, abuse, low-self esteem, etc. I draw from a host of treatment models that I believe will best suit your needs including Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP). One model is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) that's particular helpful in facilitating resolution of issues in a shorter amount of time.

**CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* I believe that there is no single treatment that works best for everyone. I believe that therapy is the most effective when it's tailored to the unique needs of each client. We will spend time building trust arriving at a shared understanding of your treatment goals. My practice focuses on creating space in which transformation is possible and old patterns can shift into something that allows for growth and possibility. We'll start with current challenges that you may be experiencing and together, we will carve out a road map that can help you on your journey to be the most complete version of you.

I believe the reasons that bring you to seek therapy can provide an opportunity for growth and change for the better. In my practice I create an environment where my clients feel respected and heard. My collaborative and open orientation is toward healing and personal growth. It is based on the belief that we are capable of change, and finding new adaptive ways of overcoming our challenges and getting unstuck. I will work with you to help enhance your coping skills, functioning, creativity and vitality, as well as gain relief from symptoms and stress, and develop strategies for self-care.

I specialize in working with couples who are experiencing difficulties. No partnership is without disappointments, confusion, and an experience of minor or major betrayals. Yet these predictable challenges invite us to broaden our capacity for understanding and enter new depths of intimacy as we repair and heal. As a marriage and family therapist with a focus on sexuality I believe that no matter what the difficulty, we can reshape our relationships to have the kind of deep connections we yearn for. I help couples strengthen relationship skills and develop tools to end negative patterns and establish deep intimacy.

I conduct individual, couples and family psychotherapy in both English and Spanish. I specialize in couples and families, addressing problems like depression, anxiety, low self esteem, ADHD and how these issues affect communication and interaction patterns. I help couples learn to communicate their emotional needs and to see each other in a new light. I also work with children in the context of the family and help parents deal with their child's behavioral/emotional problems. I have a great deal of experience in diversity issues, including cultural, gender, and socioeconomic disparities.

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.

NOW open for NEW clients ages 13 and up! I am a Licensed Certified Social worker providing individual therapy for adolescents, young adults and older adults. I have more than 10 years of experience providing therapeutic services in various settings and with diverse populations including: residential, corrections, and adoption services. Most recently, I have been working in an outpatient setting for the past 4 years with various ages. I have an extensive background working with individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, complex trauma, mood disorders, and personality disorders.

Welcome! I believe that the relationship between me and my clients is the foundation on which, together, we will help you to understand yourself better, realize the patterns that are holding you back, and make the changes that you decide are enriching for your life. A large portion of my practice focuses on work with clients who struggle with issues related to trauma, attachment, and interpersonal wounding. This has led to an extensive background in many different disorders and presentations. In addition to working with individual clients, I also work with parents, including adoptive parents.

I work with adults dealing with a range of issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and trauma. Through the development of a trusting relationship and exploration I believe we can work through most challenges in your personal and/or work life. As a psychoanalyst and social worker with over 30 years of experience, I am deeply committed to this work. In addition to having a private practice in Concord, MA I am currently Co-Director, Supervisor and Faculty for The PINE Center Clinical Fellowship.

I believe that one of the most important aspects of successful therapy is the connection between the therapist and the client. I offer a safe and nurturing environment based on trust and mutual respect. I believe many clients have the unconscious wisdom to guide themselves through difficult life events, and my role is to help the individual explore and discover themselves. I use a strength based approach to healing and problem solving, while always providing unconditional respect and nonjudgmental regard for the individual's personal therapeutic journey.

As a clinical psychologist in the Boston area, I work with adults and older adolescents going through transitions, who would like to understand how their past affects them now, and who are feeling stuck or overwhelmed. If you are struggling with relationships, marital/family or work difficulties, depression, pandemic-related stress, anxiety, acculturation, career choices, college adjustment, grief, or other life problems, we can work together to reduce distress and work on patterns that interfere with your life to make lasting change. I also offer short-term therapy for college students located in MA during the summer.

When life becomes difficult, it can feel impossible to take a step in any direction, let alone toward positive change. You have taken the first step. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I work with individuals and groups using a contemporary psychodynamic approach and an interactive style. My practice is client-centered, tailoring my approach to each individual. My goal is to create a safe and comfortable environment to attend to your emotional needs. I believe it is all about relationship.

Within my work at Windhorse Counseling, I use tools from different approaches, including CBT, Psychodynamic, Narrative, and Internal Family Systems therapies. I enjoy being creative and eclectic within therapy as everyone’s healing journeys are unique. By centering compassion and empathy, I strive to provide a trusting space where clients can explore, build insight and increase their sense of empowerment so they can carry out change, decision making, and acceptance in their lives.

For all of us, there are moments when life becomes extremely challenging. I believe that even during times of intense pain, loss, confusion, chaos, and fear, we can find peace and even joy. I teach skills to nurture happiness, hope, inspiration, courage, confidence, creativity, wonder, serenity, balance, and ease. While working alongside individuals to increase resilience, adaptability and flexibility, I assist in identifying and releasing habitual behavioral patterns that perpetuate anxiety, stress, and suffering.

Currently not accepting new clients for the next 3 to 4 months. Do you feel like something is off or missing from your life? Do you feel overwhelmed? Do you feel stuck? Have you been feeling tired, frustrated, anxious, worried, and/or sad? If you are searching on here you are seeking help and in the right place. If you are looking for a therapist you are most likely seeking change and relief. Life is short and you should enjoy it but stress can interfere with this, so let me help you. I can help.

I assist clients who are wanting to improve their lives in significant ways. While I specialize in treating eating disorders, anxiety and depression, most clients also come to me with related issues of trauma, self-confidence, struggles with change/transition, work, family relationships and other stressors. I see therapy as a collaborative process taking place in the context of an empathic relationship where support and appropriate challenge are offered. I encourage individuals to learn about themselves, understand the meaning behind symptoms and develop skills that enable them to take positive action toward well-being.

I enjoy working with adults from all diverse backgrounds. In individual sessions I help those presenting with depression, anxiety, OCD, personality disorders, trauma, substance abuse, ADHD/ADD, issues with sexuality, LGBTQ, grief and loss, parenting issues, women's issues, and challenges involving interpersonal relationships.
