Therapists in 01035

My primary focus is on working with clients using EMD and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to manage/overcome issues related to trauma, mood, life transition and becoming "unstuck" from old patterns. Individual adults (please, no children under 18, couples or families) are welcomed to engage in a supportive therapeutic relationship promoting positive growth and forward movement. I utilize an organic combination of techniques including EMDR, psycho-education, expressive therapies, CBT, parts work and relational healing. Are you ready to deepen your understanding of yourself in order to create personal change?

My practice is currently full. If you'd like to be added to my waitlist, please leave a message with your insurance and best times/days. My intention is to create a nurturing relationship that supports your learning and growth. I believe the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the most important element of a helpful counseling experience. Together, we will explore your challenges with compassion and curiosity and discover your strengths and other resources that can help you move towards meaningful change.

Change is a natural part of life and can be both exciting and challenging. If you're looking to develop resources to deal with the challenge of transitions, anxiety or depression, or are seeking new ways of responding to old patterns, I'd like to work with you to actively create a fresh approach to building the life you want to be living. I am easy to talk to, and bring a warm and open presence approaching therapy as a conversation. I listen closely and aim to ask questions that help you to grow your own innate wisdom and inspire new ideas and solutions.

I have over 20 years of experience helping people of diverse backgrounds heal from stuck emotions and patterns, anxiety, and trauma, I support individuals with life transitions, stress at home and at work, grief, coping with partner/family substance abuse, anxiety, family issues, family of origin issues, parenting issues, divorce, communication difficulties, and challenges, and confusion around career. I provide a nurturing and supportive environment to facilitate authentic self-expression. I believe in the innate ability of each individual to heal and realize unlimited potential. It is an honor for me to witness this journey.

With over 20 years in the field of psychotherapy, I bring a breadth and depth of experience to therapy sessions and a commitment to assisting people in their move towards change. I work with individual adults and couples and a broad range of presenting issues.
