Family Therapy in Longmeadow, MA

Not accepting new clients. I am a licensed mental health counselor with 27 years of clinical experience. I help individual adult men address codependency, depression, anxiety, family of origin issues, communication difficulties, grief and loss, and life changes. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and client-centered. I believe in the capability of each client to change and evolve in the ways that are important for their well-being and enjoy supporting each client's process of growth. I do not treat eating disorders or addictions (alcohol, substances, food, pornography, internet gaming, spending, gambling, or other addictions).

Life can present challenges that can become overwhelming and cause emotional unrest. As a result, our relationships, functioning level, and emotional well being can be significantly affected. In part, this is what it means to be human, engaged in life that is often complex and always changing. As a therapist for over 25 years, I have had the privilege of helping clients overcome such challenges, gain insight and self awareness, become unstuck and change thought patterns and behaviors that no longer serve them.

Not Currently Accepting Clients. I believe in the inherent value of each and every individual who chooses to seek out therapy and especially in the acceptance of those populations who have historically been marginalized or mistreated. I help individuals find understanding in who they are and to find hope for their future. Life can be very difficult at times and especially when we experience trauma, anxiety and depression. If you are looking for a better way to handle stress at work or with your family , it is imperative to find someone with the right training and experience.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological evaluation. Most referrals reflect concerns around life-long problems as well as recent changes in functioning that concern friends and family . Most of the time, patients and their families/supports are looking for empathy and clarification around real-world problems. This in-depth clarification allows for real-world treatment recommendations that can make a difference. Lengths are taken to minimize time in office. These include telephone and video interviews as well as electronically submitted forms and fact sheets.

I provide individual therapy for adults and older adolescents who are looking for new ways to make positive changes in their lives. I help people who are struggling with trauma, histories of abuse, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, family or origin difficulties, life changes, and grief and loss. Through support, collaboration, and guidance, clients are able to improve interpersonal relationships, enhance coping skills, and develop a stronger and healthier sense of self.

Are you facing overwhelming stress and anxiety? Perhaps you find yourself overly reactive—either quickly becoming angry or shutting down? Or feeling down, lacking your usual energy and motivation, and finding it harder to complete tasks? It can be scary when you don’t know where to go for help. Together, you and I will figure out what is really going on. I will provide you with the support, guidance, and skills you need to make positive changes through individual, couples, or family therapy .
