Therapists in Middlesex County, MA

I enjoy collaborating with clients to tune into their own inner guidance and intuition. I also enjoy supporting clients who are exploring questions about meaning and purpose in their lives. In my work, I draw from the fields of positive psychology, or the science of happiness and thriving; self-compassion, which focuses on treating oneself with the same kindness that one might treat a friend; and mindfulness, which focuses on the power of returning to and inhabiting the present moment.

Hi there! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, expressive arts therapist, and certified yoga instructor based out of Cambridge, MA. I believe in collaboratively and consensually building working relationships with clients to make space for untangling, reclaiming, transforming, and navigating the instability of life. I aim to create inclusive spaces, especially for those with intersectional identities, and value culturally competent and trauma-informed practice. I work with children and adults to reclaim their innate resilience through an integrated approach of both feeling AND dealing.

I believe it's crucial to acknowledge that feelings associated with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions are inherent to the human experience. My aim is to provide compassionate guidance in navigating these emotions, empowering individuals to effectively manage them and lead more fulfilling lives. Central to my approach is the concept of reducing the overwhelming intensity of these feelings, enabling individuals to gain clarity and perspective. By helping clients "turn down the volume" on their emotional turmoil, I strive to create space for them to explore and understand themselves more deeply.

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions, or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerned as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with an objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

I help clients to deepen their understanding of their challenges and strengths in order to more effectively reach their goals.
