My ideal client would be new to therapy, though motivated to change. I am aware of the challenges that come with seeking therapy and want to be a support to those who are hesitant with the process. Ideally, I would like a client who is self-aware, receptive to feedback, and willing to hold themselves accountable.

Life can be difficult, and we all get stuck at times. I have helped many individuals and couples to face these moments in their lives and open up to the growth and healing that is possible for all of us. I believe that healing happens when we find words where before there were none, when we find hope in places within ourselves we had long ago forsaken, when we allow compassion and connection to touch us when we are feeling most alone and unseen.

My life experience has given me compassion for a population of individuals with mental health disorders who flourish in life, given the opportunity.

Creativity & Compassion, Mindful Awareness, Health & Resiliency. These are the guiding principles I use to teach people skills to address difficulties in the present, gain a healthier perspective about the past, disengage from fear of the future, embrace & find pleasure in the life that is here. I offer personalized support to women, young adults, & teens struggling with circumstantial, developmental, or health-related transitions.

Larry specializes in counseling children of all ages, teens, young adults, adults, and families. Larry effectively helps even the very young child and clients of all ages with their emotional and/or behavioral challenges. His passion, expertise, and genuine interest is so needed, when many of our youth are longing for someone they can talk to, connect with, and feel their voice is understood. Working with the entire family providing family counseling takes a very special ability, as does helping parents navigate challenges, this is Larry's expertise.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in private practice with over a decade of experience working with adolescents and their families in their homes and in the community. In addition to working with adolescents and their family's I see young adults ages 18-35 virtually. I do my best work with adolescents who “don’t like therapy” or who have struggled to connect or engage with other therapists in the past. This happens for lots of reasons–but one major one is that sometimes sitting in an office staring at one another just feels too threatening.

About Me and the Weaver Center Team: ME: Having been diagnosed with dyslexia, attention deficit, memory and organization problems in 1962 at Mass General Hospital in Boston and with the term for my disorder was Minimal Brain Damage (MBD) and Reading Retardation, some thought the hopes for me were going to be very complicated at the very least. so I have created an amazing group of highly trained and skilled professionals to work in a multidisciplinary center, the Weaver Center www.weavercenter.org please visit us

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I have a passion for helping individuals reach their maximum potential and healthiest state, taking into account their current as well as past experiences. I feel passionate about working with children and adults with chronic illness as well as with those individuals dealing with loss and bereavement. I also believe strongly in the work that can be accomplished with individuals who have experienced a recent or past trauma and believe strongly in the individual's ability to achieve a healthy state with proper holistic healthcare.

I consider it an honor to guide people on their journey through this life, to help them release old patterns of thought, feeling and behavior that interfere with their sense of well-being and wholeness, resolve the effects of lingering pain and/or past trauma, explore what is important and meaningful in their lives, and find new purpose and depth in themselves and in their relationship to the world around them. If you find yourself lost, in your relationships and/or your life, in a world that makes little sense, we can find a path and way of being that feels right for you in the most fulfilling way.

Finding the right play therapist can make all the difference. I invite you to read on and decide whether you are ready to take that next step and call. I feel passionately about helping parents and young children (0-8 years old) to build strong relationships by learning and growing together. The relationships formed in the early years of life are very important and create the the foundation for social-emotional growth. Play Therapy is a way of being with and helping a child that honors and supports their developmental level through speaking their language, play.

For nearly four decades, I have had the privilege of working with and learning from hundreds of individuals, couples and families as they have wrestled with the challenges of their lives. Every person's story and circumstances are unique but if someone is helped by the work we do together, it is generally because we form a relationship of trust and connection. My decades of work with top tier professionals at Harvard Business School, has given me a deep appreciation of the interplay between professional and personal lives. My own commitment to lifelong learning enables me to bring state of the art care to my clients.

New England stoicism expects us to “be strong” and “self- sufficient” pushing that pain deep inside. At one point or another, we are all the victims of problematic thinking and struggle to maintain balance in life. You don’t need a pervasive mental illness or diagnosis to benefit from counseling. If you’re tired of being stuck, let’s change that.

My clients come to me looking for support in their journey toward a more fulfilled and healthy life. My clinical focus is on mindfulness-based stress reduction and self-compassion. I've worked with hundreds of patients in treatment settings suffering from co-occurring mental health and substance abuse issues and am well-equipped to support those healing from adjustment disorders, substance abuse, marital conflict and low self-esteem.

Therapy is a space for transformation and self-exploration. I’m an experienced, licensed clinical psychologist who can help guide you through the challenges you face in different stages of life. I have worked with people of all ages, whether you’re an adult struggling to harmonize your family life with a stressful and high-achieving career, or you’re an emerging adult trying to discover your identity and career path.
