Codependency Therapists in Berkshire County, MA

My approach is holistic with an emphasis on developing self-love and self-discovery, you can begin the process of healing around issues such as, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, body image, parenting, and more. In our work together we will use compassion and creativity to discover your inner wisdom and strengths, and to identify and change old patterns of feeling.

My mission is to create a healing space for you to feel safe and understood. I specialize in helping people recover from trauma, eating and body image issues, addiction, anxiety, and depression. Together we make sense of seemingly illogical or out of proportion reactions and responses. I believe even the most challenging parts of our personalities are creative adaptations developed to help us survive, and that true healing involves honoring these parts of ourselves, while working to find beneficial pathways in the present.

Life can be challenging. Perhaps you're experiencing anxiety or depression, are struggling with substance abuse disorder, or are feeling down and can't quite put your finger on why. As a therapist, my goal is to help you identify why you are seeking therapy, and to do that in a safe, empathic, and non-judgmental space.

Do you struggle with anxiety or unwinding most days? Do you feel like your nervous system is on overdrive much of the time, creating sleep problems, an inability to 'relax', or 'not do'? Is this starting to, or has it been, interfering with your physical health, your relationships, your work? Do you think you have long standing, or more recent difficult or traumatic life events that seem to occupy too much head space? If so, I invite you to reach out to me. I can help you move through these challenges, so you and your body can unwind these stuck patterns and feel a sense of thriving, not just surviving, in the world.

I’m entering the twenty-first century in my clinical practice. I’m very excited to be offering “Text Coaching”: Problem solving, working through creative blocks, dealing with difficult medical situation, facing family or relationships struggles, exploring your mind, spirit, soul and heart, all through text messaging. If you’re interested in knowing more and/or exploring this with me, please email. I am a 68 year old practitioner and have been in the helping field for much of my adult life. I was a psychotherapist for 20 years before shifting to coaching.

I don’t like stating what disorders I treat. Diagnoses are limiting. I work with people, and people are complicated. Sure, you have symptoms that bother you, or you wouldn’t be looking at therapists on this site. But your symptoms vary, and you may not be clear about their origins or why they persist.

My goal as a social worker is to help individuals, of all ages, in need improve the quality of their lives and their well-being. Problems that I might help people with may include behavioral, health, and social issues. As a clinical social worker I offer counseling services to those individuals in need. Social workers who specialize in mental health issues work with clients battling mental illness, substance misuse, interpersonal relationship problems, among other challenges. I can provide clients with individual or group therapy, as well as referral opportunities for social rehabilitation and crisis intervention.

Psychotherapy is a helpful way to get relief from stress and suffering while at the same time finding meaning and purpose. As a licensed psychologist, I work with my clients to help them understand their emotions, relationships, and thinking patterns so that they will be able to face new challenges and make sense of past experiences. I work to create a relationship in which you will feel comfortable sharing. During our meetings I will pay careful attention to what you say and how you say it. Through curiosity, noticing patterns, and using humor we will work together to navigate the challenges you are facing.

One of the core reasons people come to counseling is that they feel a lack of connection. Sometimes that connection is to others in their life; loved ones, partners, friends, or co-workers. Just as often that lack of connection is to themselves; fear, trauma, sexuality or shame. Fostering those connections with transparency, brevity and compassion is something I love to do. Helping people find understanding and to build coping skills that aren’t just instant gratification which drown out the real issues we’ve got (can feel good though). Skills and insight that’s more meaningful and effective than avoidance, or memes on Instagram.

The original roots of psychotherapy stem from tending to the soul and over time this truth has been forgotten. In collaboration, we will develop a space that honors your roots and all your experiences. We are at a very vulnerable time on the planet while also being in this place of individual and collective initiation.. Climate anxiety and climate grief are also realities today that we are all trying to navigate. Exploring and cultivating a path that illuminates all of your gifts, and strengths while seeding new ideas and opportunities.

Now more than ever, many of us are doing our best to survive and get through each day. The thought of doing more than just surviving can be paralyzing. Perhaps you've been coping with anxiety or depression, daily stressors related to parenting and relationships, work related stress or trauma. Perhaps you are on a personal quest to identify what makes you feel alive in this world. Therapy can be a great place to explore such challenges. I take an eclectic approach to therapy and we will work together to find the path that best meets your needs.

I provide individual therapy for adults and adolescents from a holistic and trauma-informed approach. My focus as a therapist is to provide a calm, peaceful and welcoming environment as we work together to gain the insight and tools necessary to achieve your wellness goals and to find a sense of balance, joy and fulfillment in life. My work is client-centered, heavily influenced by trauma research, and incorporates psycho-education in order to give you evidence-based techniques to utilize outside of our therapy sessions on your own to reduce distress.

I've learned in over thirty-five years in the field that anyone who wants change can benefit from a therapy that is geared toward increased self-awareness. Psychotherapy is an empowering experience that helps people improve relationships, reach higher income, quality of life, and educational goals. Understanding the world we live in, and who we are, is a key to open those doors to greater satisfaction, fewer frustrations, and a greater sense of possibilites. Therapy can, and should produce answers to questions about why things are not working out, and what actually does work

I work with individuals and couples to foster emotional growth, improve interpersonal communication, and encourage self-care.

Currently, I am taking new patients. I have experience working as a therapist in community mental health settings as well as working as part of the Therapeutic Community Group Program at the Austen Riggs Center.

Through collaboration, I aim to help you gain a better understanding of your own mind and to work towards diminishing whatever symptoms you may be feeling and improve the quality of your life.

I am a licensed independent social worker with over 11 years of experience. I provide person-centered care for adults and older adolescents struggling with mood and anxiety disorders, PTSD, complex trauma, problems with adjustment or life transitions, and relationship struggles.

Sometimes the best way to deal with a challenge is to ask for help. Clients I work with are motivated to get the most out of their day to day life while working towards longer term personal goals. My counseling style is based in a person-centered and existential philosophy but I am well versed in more concrete CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and DBT methods, and I am adaptable to a wide range of client needs. In particular, I would like to highlight that my practice seeks to be a welcoming and validating space to persons of color as well as those of LGBTQIA+ identities.
