Therapists in Middlesex County, MA

Welcome! I have over 20 years of experience working in the field of psychiatry, and providing psychotherapy to adults who struggle with mental illness and overall life challenges. I completed my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Anthropology at Trinity College, and my Master of Social Work Degree at Hunter College-CUNY. I have trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Strength-Based Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I enjoy collaborating with clients to help identify patterns of thoughts, and how they impact behaviors which are not serving them well. We then strive towards changing these patterns together!

I enjoy a collaborative approach to the therapeutic process. By co-creating this relationship we can better understand your unique needs and strengths, and provide a space where you can discover new possibilities and new ways of being in the world. I see therapy as an opportunity to develop a deeper sense of meaning and connection to oneself and to others. I tend to work well with individuals who are looking to shift from a more "reactive" stance in life to a more "proactive", or intentional way of being.

I am a clinical social worker with over 30 years experience working with adolescents, adults and elderly clients. My approach is to use humor, validation, and compassion along with collaborative problem solving. I tend to pull from many different modalities such as psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectic behavioral therapy and mindfulness. I have a deep respect for the resiliency of people and help clients tap into their own strengths.

Currently not accepting new clients. I am Clinical Social worker with over thirty years of experience in providing psychotherapy for adults (ages 25 and up) . I do not work with couples I am in my office one day and work remotely on the other days. My personal style is warm, down to earth, nonjudgmental and interactive. I find my best work is in building a relationship with you, making discoveries together about your personal challenges and working on new possibilities. My ideal client is motivated and self-reflective. In my practice I use a combination of a psycho-dynamic perspective, relational and mindfulness.

I am a licensed clinical health psychologist at Cambridge Psychology Group. I specialize in treating people coping with anxiety, chronic pain, stress, medical issues, mood disorders, and difficulties adjusting to life changes. I believe that each person is unique, and therefore no one approach is right for everyone. I strive to integrate a variety of techniques and perspectives from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness based therapies, relaxation training, biofeedback, clinical hypnotherapy, and supportive therapy to create a treatment that is tailored to the individual I am working with.

Each therapy begins with a consultation for "goodness of fit". I listen carefully and actively for symptoms, to history and to the experience of suffering. Desciphering patterns that may contribute to current suffering begins right away as well. I encourage your questions so that together we can develop a collaborative treatment plan. This plan may include short-term intervention or longer-term therapy, depending on the nature of problems, treatment goals, and available resources. I use a range of treatment approaches e.g. dynamically informed psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, mindfulness-based interventions, EMDR and expressive arts in my therapeutic work.

Individual and group therapy for emotional extremists: Do intense emotions interfere with your life? What would you be doing differently if your (emotions, thoughts, anxiety) were not causing problems for you? How can increased connections decrease isolation and depression? With 20+ years of experience, I help people stop blaming their moods and make specific steps to experience their life differently. I focus on helping you act according to your values and develop a collaborative, reality based, practical treatment agenda.

"Life feels too hard, too disappointing, too scary. I feel like a terrible person." Feelings are normal. We all have them but sometimes we become overwhelmed and get stuck in patterns that repeat unsatisfying results over and over. Whether from trauma, grief, low self esteem, addictive behaviors or attachment disruptions, I can help you shift toward greater satisfaction and ease in your life by listening and working together to focus in on core areas that have become barriers to your well being.

Are you struggling to lead a bigger life? Is self-doubt, anxiety or depression getting in your way? I offer compassionate, non-judgmental treatment for adults struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, substance use and other issues. Using an integrated approach, I help clients create a toolbox of skills to use in times of distress, and provide a warm and supportive environment for self-exploration, growth and transformation.

Sometimes overwhelming challenges or changes can feel as though they’ve taken over our lives. All too often, rather than seeking the compassionate care we deserve, we try to bear the weight of our circumstances alone, which can lead to compounding feelings of self-doubt, fear, and isolation. I draw from a broad range of therapies to help heal the parts of you that are in pain. My integrative approach draws from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). With these proven methodologies in my toolkit, I collaborate with you to make meaningful change.

The journey begins with you. For over 14 years I have assisted individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and terminal illness. I bring a compassionate, mindful and non-judgmental approach to counseling. We will explore the root cause of your discomfort. Together we will engage and explore your goals, thoughts, and feelings. We will look at ways to increase and empower your resourcefulness and positivity while addressing unwanted behaviors and thoughts. Personal transformation and life transitions can be opportunities for reflection, healing, insight, awareness, and newness; a journey toward health and happiness.
