Therapists in Boston, MA

Life is an ongoing process of aligning with our true authentic self. Without that alignment life can feel barren and meaningless. We feel stuck and unable to realize our visions and dreams. Yet, the capacity of the human spirit for creative and intuitive development is truly unlimited. Most of us however, use only a small fraction of that capacity. Through self-reflection and personal exploration we can gain an understanding of what limits this capacity.

When you struggle with executive function challenges like ones associated with ADHD, work and life can be challenging. ADHD coaching can help create structured actions that help you reach daily goals. It will provide the structure and planning needed to be successful. We work closely creating a tactical plan using customized strategies and habit building routines that will help you get to where you want to go in life. “A vision without a plan is just a dream. A plan without a vision will leave you uninspired. But a vision with a plan can guide your destiny to reality.” – Michelle

Most of us do the best we can with the resources we have. Sometimes we think no one understands our worries & fears. If open to it, we want to work with a therapist when our usual ways of relating aren't helping & we feel stuck, anxious, angry or depressed. Therapy often helps provide insight into our strengths & internal resources we already have to help navigate challenging times. In sessions, I focus on working with clients to unlock this strength to steer their lives in the direction they want. I bring curiosity, warmth, respect, & empathy to my sessions.

I am accepting new clients! I am able to see clients virtually in MA, and in-person/virtually in AZ. Are you looking to make or adjust to a change? Explore your identity and values?
