Women's Issues Therapists in Clinton, MA

*New clients, please use email for fastest reply.* Therapy should begin with establishing a trusting and therapeutic relationship, in a relaxing environment, where clients of all ages will feel comfortable, safe & understood (my dog Taffy is my 'co-therapist'!). Although everyone struggles at times during our lives, most of us still reeling from the past few years alone. I believe ALL people have hidden strengths (yes, you too!) that they can use and build upon, while also learning how their past history may still effect their thoughts, actions, and self esteem. Therapy is about insight, encouragement, support, and progress.

I work with clients across the lifespan with many different needs. It is important to me that clients of all identities feel safe and respected in therapy. As a professional, I want to continue to work with clients who identify on the LGBTQ+ spectrum, have different cultural backgrounds, have different abilities, and of all body types. I support my clients in reaching their goals by working together and empowering them to take the next step! I strive to help my clients find solace and comfort, build knowledge of coping strategies, and grow to the person they want to be.

With 20 years’ experience, I have learned to meet you where you are in this journey. To assist you in adapting to change, manage symptoms that hinder your progress, and to help you improve your relationship with self and others. As a professional who is also a human being, my approach is warm and empathetic, while treatment is guided by a strong sense of ethics and a wealth of background knowledge and life experience.

When you're in a season of your life that feels darker, lonelier or more painful, when you feel tired and overwhelmed, when you lack direction or energy, or when your relationships are suffering, it's easy to forget that you possess everything you need to grow and change. I believe that we each have the answers we need within us and the capacity to improve our circumstances, but that sometimes we get off course. I also believe that what we focus on gets bigger, so when we focus on the good and beautiful in life, the weeds get crowded out. This isn't just my personal belief - it's actually rooted in science!

I am committed to providing you with compassionate and client focused care. Meeting you where you are emotionally, allows me to assist you in reaching your mental health and life goals.

Everybody has times when they encounter roadblocks that get in the way of living your best life. Oftentimes these roadblocks come in the form of overwhelming thoughts and feelings. When these roadblocks become too much to overcome on your own, therapy can provide the time and space you need to find the right path forward.

Are you or your loved are feeling overwhelmed and struggling to process a significant health event? Perhaps you’ve been asked to make lifestyle changes as a result & don't know where to start. Maybe you're a caregiver looking for a safe space where you can take a moment to breathe, speak freely & feel heard. If any of these relate, please know you don't have to do it alone. Much of my experience is in health care supporting individuals, their caregivers and loved ones. I fully acknowledge the strong impact that new, sudden and chronic health conditions can have on individuals and those around them.
