Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Boston, MA

If your struggling with self, others or maladaptive behaviors I can assist in developing a personalized treatment plan and goals. Utilizing various trainings, beliefs and tested modalities, together we can move towards the life you want, accept the situations that we may not be able to change and weave an eclectic, psychoeducational approach designed to provide tools and develop skills to address many of your stated concerns. Using supportive language, a belief that change is possible and the inherent power of the human spirit, I will walk with you though the changes you seek.

I specialize in treating chronic mental health issues, particularly those related to emotional turmoil, suicidal ideation , and addiction. Transformative therapy goes beyond a few problem-solving worksheets or exercises; it actually delves deep to foster a genuine sense of security and coherence within oneself.

I have a passion for working with adults who are healing from trauma; members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and specifically trans and gender non-conforming adults; artists and creatives; and suicide loss survivors.

Do you feel depressed, hopeless, or anxious most of the time? Are you feeling overwhelmed with simple tasks in life? Are you wondering if you have what it takes to tackle life transitions? Do you need guidance in deciding what path you should take? Have you experienced suicidal ideation ? You are not alone. At some time in our lives, we face difficult situations that seem to be impossible to overcome. True transformational healing occurs holistically through physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual balance. There’s not a one size fits all technique

I offer psychotherapy to adults who are looking to improve their current quality of life by expanding their access to internal & external resources.

"If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present." While this quote is certainly a simplification, I do believe that people do best when they are in the present moment. I work with my clients to help them be more present, and feel more at peace, in their relationships, at work or school, and in their communities. I pride myself on creating a nonjudgmental, welcoming environment that meets the client where they are at.

I believe helping you with the issues you bring to therapy starts with empathy and respect. As partners in this process, we will work together to seek a deeper, compassionate understanding of the issues you are seeking help with. We will work to understand the forces- past and present- that contribute to your struggles. Through this lens I will help you mobilize your strengths and values, cope effectively now, and empower you to change lifestyle patterns that maintain emotional pain. No matter how stuck or hopeless you may feel, it is always possible to make changes and move toward a more fulfilling life.

My clients don't come to therapy to hear someone nod and agree with everything they say—that's not worth their time or money. They want real help. They want to know "what to do" and "how to fix it" because they're struggling with depression, severe anxiety, relationship problems, trauma, suicidal thoughts, parenting issues, and other painful situations. They're looking for a true expert that they can actually talk to. I'm a member of PSYPACT which means I can see clients in every state that is a member of PSYPACT and I'm also licensed in MA.

Perhaps you’ve tried a few therapists and weren't able to connect. Maybe you never saw yourself represented, or that therapy felt too manualized. You’ve pushed off therapy for a while now, not because you're too prideful to get the support you need, but because the help you are looking for hasn’t centered your beliefs, identity(ies) and understanding of well-being. You want support that centers all of who you are, and you are looking for authentic, experienced care that can help you gain clarity, confidence, and contentment.
