Family Therapy in New Hampshire

I am a solution-focused therapist who primarily uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address a range of problems and symptoms including family dynamics, marital issues, divorce, parenting, parent-child and family issues, adolescent issues, depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, and grief and loss. I treat adults and adolescents. I have more than fifteen years of clinical experience.

I'm a certified EMDR therapist licensed in New Hampshire and Maine and Massachusetts. EMDR is an approach to treating - not only trauma - but many other issues and negative core beliefs that keep us stuck. I'm interested in trauma, family trauma, sexual assault / abuse, supporting the LGBTQ+ community and the slightly eccentric and off-beat. I have no interest in being a cookie cutter, blank slate type therapist. If that’s what you’re looking for, I may not be for you. I'm a staunch ally - queer & trans affirming - and enjoy working with people as they discover who they are.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the challenges life throws your way? Do you recognizes the value of prioritizing your mental well-being, and are you ready to embark on a transformative journey toward self-discovery and growth? If so, we can collaborate to move on from old patterns and access new skills, build confidence and insight, and enhance your work , school, and relationships. Whether you're an adult navigating life transitions, a student grappling with academic stressors, or a family facing communication hurdles, my goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore, understand, and overcome these obstacles.

Hello! If you are reading this and looking for help you are right where you need to be :) I like to think of myself as an "UNshrink" . I believe in helping to de-pathologize you and whatever it is that you are struggling w, and helping you to experience your self, situation, and LIFE in a whole new way. I'm usually a good fit for ppl that aren't into traditional "therapy" for whatever reason: anxiety, skepticism, bad or unsuccessful past experiences, if you think you, your family, everything is/are beyond hope, or if you are interested in something completely "outside the box", bc that is me.

I like to provide a warm and inviting atmosphere when you come to my office. Soft lighting, comfortable seating, and a relaxed feeling as if you were at home in your living room. I see people for individual, couples/marital, and family therapy. I treat anxiety, depression, PTSD, anger management, and life stage transitions such as high school/college graduation, retirement, and early exit from the workforce due to disability. My work hours are M-F from 12-8 pm, 7 pm is my last appointment time of the day. Please note, I do not see children under the age of 13.

I offer consulting for parents to learn collaborative parenting (married or divorced). With over 37 years of clinical experience, I'm also a parenting specialist, helping parents to understand their children's behavior & needs. As a divorce mediator, my approach is child-centered. As parents struggle to meet their children's needs at a time of heightened tension, they need support and guidance. They must navigate a difficult grieving process, while they learn to transform their relationship from marital partners to business partners, sharing the "business" of raising their children together to ensure everyone thrives.
