Therapists in Norwell, MA

I believe therapy is an active, collaborative process. I work with clients to develop tools for mastering challenges in a context of self-acceptance, and appreciation of one's own resilience and resourcefulness. My therapeutic style is eclectic, blending solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, positive psychology, and family systems approaches.

I understand that hurt, resentments and family dysfunction make life challenging. Working with adults of all ages, I help clients identify triggers that lead to anxiety, depression and mood instability. Together, we develop skills and strategies that create changes in behavior and improve relationships. Some of my clients come to heal complicated grief, abuse, or PTSD. Along with an accepting relationship, I approach therapy using CBT (reframing thoughts & perspective), DBT (responding vs. reacting using your wise mind), Gestalt Therapy (role playing), Internal Family Systems (healing wounded parts) and expressive therapies.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist whose client population includes, individuals, couples, families and groups. Currently, I work with couples who are experiencing a loss of connection, as well as communication and intimacy difficulties. These couples are often facing life cycle transitions.

I also work with the LGBTQ population. My practice includes a culturally and socio-economically diverse population.

Relationships, within and outside the family, are frequently the focus of concerns we have and affect every aspect of life. Finding a place to explore the way things are, have been, and the way we want them to be is an essential goal of successful therapy. We may need support in healing, looking within to better understand what in our lives has contributed to difficulty, discouragement, and disappointment. Understanding problems leads to finding solutions to conflicts within and between ourselves and others, so that healing can take place.

For me, psychotherapy must address the needs of the person. Sometimes this can mean exploring how you got to the point you are at, and how you want to change; and sometimes you may want specific tools to address a very specific issue. Finding the right therapist is perhaps one of the most important choices you will make and also one of the most difficult. Although a therapist may have an armory of techniques to use, what I have found to be at the heart of any type of psychotherapy is whether the relationship works between you and your therapist.
