Hoarding Therapists in Boston, MA

Talk with me – about feeling weighted down and “heavy” – about struggling with feeling out of sorts all the time, about difficulties in relationships, and becoming quick to anger. Inner conflict, confusion, and uncertainty are some of the hardest spaces to live in as they create fear. We all need support guidance, and encouragement to help navigate what feels hopeless. Let's work together toward establishing a sense of safety and security within yourself. Exploring destress tolerance techniques and creating a balance that allows you to be exactly where you are in this moment – I am a “real person” and a great listener.

My Ideal client: 36 yo male, divorced, with two children. The patient was incarcerated 16 years, due to drug addiction/trafficking. He spent his early childhood living with his mother and father, who sexually abused him. They were also addicted to drugs due to their childhood experiences of being abused. The patient's parents also prostituted him in exchange for drugs for others. The patient turned to drugs to escape the pain, embarrassment, and overall trauma from his childhood. He now wants sobriety and to overcome his trauma, which includes flashbacks and negative self-image, self-hatred, and hatred of his parents.

The pandemic, political division, racial injustice, and unstable world can lead us to feel off balance, stuck, or afraid. Sometimes we can cope with this on our own, and other times friends and/or family support us. Sometimes that just isn't enough; and we need an objective, nonjudgemental person who has training in counseling to help. I have many years of experience in individual and group therapy. My approach is active, genuine, and strengths-based. It is important to note that I do not take insurance at this time.
