Family Therapy in Wolfeboro Falls, NH

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious or discouraged because of a challenging relationship in your life or a big change? Changes, difficult people in our lives and demanding jobs can leave us drained, confused, and extremely frustrated. Lets talk about balance, boundaries, self compassion, gaining perspective, and finding ways to find peace amidst the challenges. We can work together to understand negative patterns in your life, and choose to make positive changes for yourself, family, faith and work. I especially love working with other helpers such as nurses, EMT's, social workers, ministry leaders, teachers, and parents.

When looking for a therapist to help listen, process and sort through so many of life's varying worries, concerns, and obstacles that we experience on a daily basis, whether immediate or long term, it is all about finding the right fit and developing a trusting relationship. Empathy, understanding, and the ability to listen with open ears are what I strive to provide to you and your family in your time of need. I approach you and your family as individuals while believing that you all exist within a large system made up of many moving parts that need to be included and considered as part of your healing and rebuilding process.

The stressors of life can have profound impacts on youth. I provide children and adolescents (ages 3-19) with compassionate integrative care to meet their unique needs; this can include CBT, Play Therapy, Exposure Therapy, Sandtray Therapy, and Expressive Art Therapy. To me, working with youth also means providing support and guidance to their families via separate family and parenting sessions, as needed.

Being a teen or young adult is hard. Besides drowning in a culture of “never enough,” they are bombarded daily by a constant stream of messaging about who, how and what they are supposed to be. The pressure is often crippling, the messages are confusing, and it can be tough to know where to turn for help. For over a decade, I have worked with teens, young adults, and parents who are learning how to navigate this important period with self-awareness, skill, and confidence. I listen carefully and read between the lines, helping young people figure out what is really going on and helping them forge their own, unique path forward.

Because we are unique and complex people I choose a holistic and individualized counseling approach. I am both a traditional "talk therapist" and an expressive arts therapist specializing in art therapy. I have 20 years of experience in the mental health field working in various treatment setting with teens and adults. I help people gain insight, awareness, emotional release, problem solving and coping skills. I have considerable experience in treating emotional disturbances, trauma, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and anxiety. I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, art therapy and psychodynamics; I use both approaches.

I work with clients to understand their own thinking processes and belief systems, to develop new coping strategies and learn new skills to interact with family and others interpersonally, and to make lifestyle adjustments to bolster internal psychological and coping resources. Making targeted changes in these areas leads to improvements in overall mood and well-being for families and individuals. I work with children and adolescents using tools that are engaging and interactive and take their developmental needs and abilities into account.

My view of therapy is an opportunity to engage in a collaborative process by which the therapist and client work together towards enriching lifestyle, and enhancing overall well-being. Additional treatment modalities I draw from include cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques aimed to help reframe and replace negative thought patterns leading to healthier responses in challenging situations. Furthermore, I work from a strengths based perspective that amplifies each individual's unique qualities through the process of self-discovery, healing, acceptance and forgiveness of self and others.

As a person deeply rooted in relationship dynamics, I am passionate and committed to helping my clients explore their growth potential, both in relationships and individually.

I can see any client in Maine and NH via teletherapy but I am not credentialed with insurance companies in Maine, only NH. I help guide my clients to understand how their upbringing, worldview, culture, personality, and view of self affect how they are feeling, behaving, and thinking currently. One goal of mine is to help my clients maximize their wellbeing by better understanding themselves through the use of coping tools like mindfulness to slow and calm themselves enough to be able to assess their own thoughts and emotions in the moment so as to minimize regrets while reducing mood and behavioral symptoms.
