Therapists in Massachusetts

My life’s work is focused on shining the light upon psychological influences that bind us to the past and affect our present life situations in a patterned, repetitive and unconscious ways. I will help you to develop a deeper understanding of your internal conflicts, which will have a positive effect on your overall state-of-mind, mood, emotions, and ultimately your future.

My ideal client is a male of any age interested in changing patterns keeping him stuck in his life, someone ready to do the tough work of honest self-assessment as preparation for meaningful change. My approach is strengths-based and solutions-focused with a goal of mobilizing clients to imagine and then pursue positive and exciting change. I have extensive experience working with gifted people and elite performers across different industries, both as a teacher and a clinician. I also work well with executives focused on career building, developing relationships, and managing work-life balance.

I provide clients with a safe, supportive & respectful therapy/coaching experience. I’m there to listen. They can share “stories, past, present, life stresses/transition, mental health issues, family/couples goals” etc. I build upon clients strengths as we work together to achieve their goals. As a therapist & life coach I strive to provide my clients with a positive experience. Treatment concludes with them feeling better about themselves & having met "their goals”. The passion I felt when chose this field, early on in high school, still remains:). Through challenging times I’m grateful to be here, to help those in need.

I am a highly credentialed and experienced psychologist working as a personal and executive coach. As an organizational psychologist & psychoanalyst, my approach melds deep-listening inner exploration with focus & goal-orientation that is grounded in the reality and challenges of your particular situation. While I am a licensed clinical psychologist in MA, after COVID I live part-time out of state & focus exclusively on personal and executive coaching. My coaching process is about change & growth, through increasing self-awareness & insight, expanded emotional openness & deepened perspective & understanding about your own psychology

As a compassionate therapist, I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore their emotions, navigate life's challenges, and foster personal growth. With a client-centered approach, I strive to cultivate a trusting therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to make positive changes in their lives. Utilizing evidence-based techniques and a holistic perspective, I aim to help clients uncover their strengths, develop coping skills, and achieve greater self-awareness and fulfillment. Together, we embark on a journey of healing and transformation!

I have been a social worker for over 23 years and have worked in a number of different settings, which allowed me to gain knowledge and experience to address any presenting concerns you may have. In my practice, I will guide, nurture, and work together with you on your concerns. I will work with you using a solution-based approach based upon your own individual situation. I am here to help you transform your life through awareness, support, and insight. You are not in this alone, I am here to help you!

My work with adolescents, families, and adults spans over twenty years. I believe in the innate strengths within people while also appreciating the need for assistance during the challenges and losses presented throughout life. Working from a relational model and believing that the present moment offers potential for new growth and healing, I am honored to be present for each client as they achieve their desired goals. By co-creating a therapeutic relationship based on trust and authenticity, I assist individuals in reaching their highest potentials.

The people I see are interested in working hard on the core issues interfering with their relationships and work. Therapy happens in real time in one's life, and should aim to resolve these issues without delay. When I see people initially, and when I teach other therapists, I emphasize that a feeling that something real is happening, that it is having an impact, should be part of the process from the beginning, even if one recognizes there is a lot of work to do.

I am looking to forward to working with clients who are trying to overcome life's hurdles - whether it is a mental health issue or a life altering change. I want to be your support person, a therapist that can accept you for who you are and help you through your specific needs and challenges. I am on your side and always will.

I help my clients feel better about themselves and deal more effectively with the people in their lives. Do you sometimes wonder how to get your partner or children to understand you? Are you feeling frustrated and don't know who to talk with? Do you want to increase your effectiveness with others? It is so very important to be known and understood by the people that you care about the most. Your relationships have the potential to become a place where you can bring more joy and happiness into your life.

I have been a psychotherapist for 20 years. My practice specializes in helping men redefine their approach to relationships in a way that feels authentic, and in line with healthy male emotional development. I specialize in self-esteem, self-actualization, and helping men build and maintain attraction and intimacy. The foundation for male self-esteem begins in childhood and sets the foundation for men to share themselves in relationships, feel successful, and being a meaningful part of their children's lives. I also specialize in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in men and women, as well as recovery from abusive relationships.

Overwhelmed? Anxious? Irritable? Depressed? Stressing over finances, job, relationships? So many people are struggling but you reached out for help. Taking this first step is the hardest. I would like the opportunity to help ease your discomfort by providing a safe and comfortable environment. No judgement here. Together we would work on the issues you are struggling with. I feel people are more resilient than they feel. I am active in the therapeutic process by providing feedback. Change is always possible. I am no longer working with couples or children.

I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client's particular needs in a comfortable and supportive environment. As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential to live a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life.

Life can be difficult and my goal is to help people with these difficult life situations. Sometimes it can be relationships, parenting, nervousness, depression, or help overcoming a past trauma. I am certified in Sand tray therapy to help process any of these life difficulties, trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy to assist with past traumas, and Triple P which is the positive parenting program to assist parents with many issues from sleeping issues in infants to ADHD in elementary school. I also have training in Emotionally Focused Therapy. Current availability during school/work hours online and in person

I am only accepting private pay clients at this time. I provide counseling for individuals, couples, & families of all ages. I believe that my clients can effectively change their life by being an active participant in the therapy process. I provide an empathetic and nurturing environment for all my clients as well as offer bold advice to foster personal growth. I specialize in substance abuse, depression, bipolar disorder, women's issues, grief and loss, anxiety/panic, trauma, and emotional and behavioral issues of children and adolescents.

I know that there are challenges in each person's life and I strongly believe that talking helps. I engage those that I work with by using dynamic psychotherapy. This is an ongoing process of talking, thinking and feeling. As these elements are shared, reconsidered, and reviewed over time a deeper understanding of the self emerges. This understanding leads to more choices in one's life. I respect the abilities that people bring to the challenges of life and their capacities to make changes. I treat the person not the diagnosis. Please text or call (617) 480-5155.

I am accepting new clients! Life's journey can be full of crisis, loss, grief and trauma. These experiences activate fear in the primal brain, alter patterns of behavior, limit ones perception, lead to relationship issues, low self-esteem and addictions. If these problems are left unresolved, they can lead to physical and mental health problems as well as a weakened spirit, affecting ones core vitality for life. My spiritual approach provides clients with a safe, nurturing and compassionate environment where trust is easily built within the therapeutic relationship so that healing can take place.

**IMMEDIATE OPENINGS! NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS, TELEHEALTH ONLY AT THIS TIME (will change in coming months)** Healing starts when you ask for help. We all carry around baggage of our own in one form or another. The key to healing is unburdening yourself of all those experiences that are holding you back and preventing you from living your best and happiest life. In my practice I utilize a person centered focus, that relies on each individual persons’ needs. I tailor each treatment path according to your needs, and what you and I decide will be the best treatment for you.

We are living in unprecedented times filled with great challenge and incredible opportunity for growth. Global and personal events can leave us feeling isolated, disconnected, anxious and depressed. We search for meaning and purpose amidst the overwhelm of loss, transition, disease and chronic pain. Yet, this chaos can be the grit that moves us toward greater awareness and freedom. Support, connection, compassion and skilled guidance can help us forge new pathways in our lives, our brains and our bodies. We then have more capacity to reclaim our inherent joy, creativity and the power to build a positive light-filled future.
