Hello and Welcome Therapy provides a much needed space for reflection. To notice what you may be thinking and feeling in your heart, mind and body. To catch up with yourself. To begin to make sense, to make meaning, out of the often entangled and contradictory thoughts and feelings. Whether it's depression, anxiety, shame, overwhelm, anger and / or any combination and more, I offer a space to bring your whole self. Through the use of EMDR, EFT and other modalities I will work with you to make sense, make clear, what is often in the shadows. So you can respond more skillfully to the challenges you encounter.

My passion is to work with people facing difficult challenges to get them closer to the life they want. I work from a strength-based perspective, building on the talents, skills and abilities that you already have. I'm comfortable employing an eclectic range of technique and theory, but in the end, we will work together to find a form of therapy that works for you.

I work with adults, couples, families, and adolescents on a wide range of challenges including depression, anxiety, poor self image, relationship issues, trauma, and eating disorders. My approach is engaged and interactive, directly focusing on the difficulties that you are facing. Reconnecting with your true self and healing and strengthening your relationships are key elements of our work together. I am a caring and attentive listener and dedicate myself to helping you achieve optimal contentment and peace of mind. My therapeutic approach includes aspects of cognitive therapy, DBT, mindfulness and Buddhist psychology, narrative therapy, and somatic therapy.

I am a staff member at the Trauma Institute & Child Trauma Institute, where we use research-supported trauma healing therapies to help people overcome issues such as depression, anxiety, phobia, addiction, grief, anger , and more. By decreasing distress, folks tend to experience improved performance at work or school as well as decreased interpersonal difficulties and problem behaviors. The goal of our therapy sessions would be for you to find true healing and effectively put the past behind you.

Tarn was adopted and raised in Southern Vermont on a farm. She has always loved helping others so the decision to become a therapist came easy. She first attended Community College in Vermont before continuing on to earn a BA in Sociology from Smith College in Northampton, MA. Tarn then attended the Smith College School for Social Work where she earned a Masters in Social Work (MSW). She has since worked in a variety of positions throughout her career which have assisted her in becoming an eclectic therapist with a wealth of knowledge in several facets of social work and life.

Are you questioning your gender? Or just looking for a gender affirming therapist to process feeling burnt out from the last few years (who wouldn't!)? Maybe you're noticing difficulty coping with anxiety, stress, depression and anger . Feeling like it's difficult getting your daily tasks done due to feeling overwhelmed, difficulty focusing, and feeling unable to say no to others.

Hello, my practice is full as of 5/1/2023. I will not be able to respond to inquiries at this time. if you're experiencing distress in an area(s) of your life that you're having difficulty resolving on your own, I would like to help. I have many years of experience working with widely diverse individuals on challenges such as conflict in relationships, anger management issues, grief and loss, difficulty with managing emotions, domestic violence, spiritual issues, substance misuse, anxiety, depression, PTSD and a number of other problematic issues. I use a variety of tools and together we can decide what those will be.

I have a passion for helping people who are in a time in their lives when extra support, guidance and help could really improve their lives. My goal is to work with the person, who attends counseling with me, to help make their lives better in any way that I can. I have experience working with people who struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, coping skill development, eating disorders, self esteem, family conflict, addiction & anger management problems. I work one on one, with couples and with families. I primarily work with adults over the age of 21.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor serving individuals and groups in Franklin County Massachusetts. I have 15 years experience training and practice in using action-based methods for engaging the mind, emotions, and the body. Effective for use with individuals and in a group setting, together we address issues related to depression, anxiety, grief, anger , suicidal ideation and self-harm impulses, social anxiety, ADHD, substance abuse, bullying, and issues related to emotional and physical abuse, abandonment and neglect. Supporting children, youth, adults and elders restoring creativity and spontaneity.

Offering Parenting Consultations ONLY (sorry, I am not taking on new, individual clients). For 15 years, I've specialized in working with kids and their families, but I rarely have openings and often have to turn away parents who need help. I know how frustrating it is for parents to find therapists with openings, and with this in mind, I now am offering a series of three consultation sessions for parents to gain further insight into the roots of what their child is experiencing, and how parents can help. While my consultations are not a replacement for therapy, parents have said our meetings are extremely helpful.

I would like to to let my future clients know that for over thirty years I have offered compassionate, solution focused therapy to individuals, couples and families who are changing their lives. Many experienced trauma, a painful loss or difficulty in becoming true to themselves. For some, anxiety, depression or debilitating anger create roadblocks to happiness and connection. Others may be managing health issues, having problems with communication, intimacy, gender identification or sexual behavior concerns. It continues to be a privilege and an honor to be asked to walk with them through to happier, more fulfilled lives.

My practice is currently full. I have extensive experience helping people of diverse backgrounds gently heal from anxiety, depression, and trauma. I support individuals with life transitions, stress at home and at work, chronic anxiety, panic attacks, insomnia, depression, anger management , family issues, parenting issues, divorce, communication difficulties, and challenges and confusion around career. I provide a nurturing and supportive environment to facilitate authentic self-expression. I believe in the innate ability of each individual to heal and realize unlimited potential. It is an honor for me to witness this journey.

By listening with deep compassion and acceptance, I collaborate with people as they expand their ability to belong to themselves. Through our time together we will affirm your inherent goodness during troubling life events. Our feelings and sensations are a natural and organic response to life. Our bodies, being the center of human experience, are the greatest sources of guidance through feelings, sensations, and reactions. When our natural response to life is shamed or rejected we cease belonging to life and to ourselves. When we are able to allow these feelings to flow through us, our whole selves become a part of life.
