Expressive Arts Therapists in Woburn, MA

The ideal client is motivated to continue to work with their inner child to become grounded in the present moment. They may have anxiety, mood disorders, or personality disorders, or they may not be sure what is underlying their experience, which I can help identify as well. The ideal clients are open to trying new methods of healing, including arts and spirituality. They are willing to trust me with their feelings and express them, whether that is verbally, through the expressive arts, or both.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to explore their patterns, thoughts, and unique stories. They may be struggling with anxiety or depression or haven't fully processed traumas and attachment issues in their lifetime. This ideal client may be detached from their emotions, have a hard time letting go, or find it difficult to experience joy. This person is motivated for change and seeks more insight about themselves.

I specialize in relationship trauma, particularly cult recovery, with adults. I work with people who are gentle souls, have been called "too sensitive" and simply find this world hard to navigate. Our society sometimes turns sensitivity & thoughtfulness into pathologies. If you're empathic and contemplative, not only is there nothing wrong with you, we need more of you!

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.

Do you think you may have ADHD or Autism? Have you struggled to assert boundaries at work, with family, & partners? Have you felt curious about exploring different pronouns and gender identity? Do you feel bad that you have a disability and don't know how to tell your friends that you can't do certain activities? You may have goals to tell your friends your preferred pronouns. Goals to get a diagnosis for your disability & curious about medication, goals to reevaluate your relationship with cannabis/alcohol. You may feel shame & anger about your childhood & the way your parents handled your behavior.

My ideal client has either experienced a past trauma and/or is dealing with anxiety or depression. This client can be someone diagnosed with ASD, as I enjoy working with neurodiverse populations. This client should want guidance and support to develop emotional regulation skills, build positive relationships with others, or process their emotional experiences. I can help support those going through various life transitions, as well as help people develop self-awareness and understanding.

My ideal client is someone who is ready for therapy and is committed to their own growth and well-being. This person is open to expressing themselves in therapy. This person may be experiencing challenges such as anxiety and depression, low self-esteem, and trauma. The goals for therapy may be developing coping skills, healing past trauma, and increasing confidence. Needs may include empathy and validation and a need for a safe environment. I am also interested in working with people with a dual diagnosis. I can help people create treatment goals, combine different therapies, and provide community resources to support recovery.

Looking for the right therapist can be overwhelming. Whether this is for yourself, your child or teen, it can be difficult finding a good fit for you or your loved one. By beginning a therapeutic relationship with me, you will have a place where you can finally feel empowered around whatever emotional obstacles you or your loved one are facing. You can rely on me to provide support, resources and information that will help to guide the therapeutic journey.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of experience working with children, teens and adults. Most of the people I work with struggle with anxiety, depression and general life stressors. I believe that a person is greatly effected by their environment. People have an innate drive to do better, to want better and to be better. Sometimes this drive gets blocked by life changes, stress, transitions, negative energy and/or relationships with others. I hope to help people become a better version of themselves.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor with over a decade of experience in the mental health field. I believe that building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect is the foundation for the most meaningful work to be done. I have a relaxed, non-judgmental, conversational approach that encourages clients to feel at ease. I strive to provide support around helping increase awareness and empowering others to make the changes that they need and desire in life.
