Therapists in Westfield, MA

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS!! I am a Licensed Psychotherapist and enjoy working collaboratively with adults of all ages. I have experience in working with diverse populations and issues. I am committed to equality and respect for all ethnic, racial, and lifestyle backgrounds. I provide a warm, caring, and nonjudgmental environment and I’m passionate about helping you enhance your personal growth. My goal is to assist you in reaching the highest level of functioning possible and help you move toward a more satisfying, fulfilling life.

I believe in providing a comfortable and relaxed environment for clients to address issues identified in treatment. Collaborative treatment planning with my client allows for goals and objectives to be identified. Clients will begin the healing process using a variety of techniques, interventions, and theoretical approaches. In addition to outpatient therapy, I also serve as Guardian Ad Litem to Berkshire, Franklin, Hampshire and Hampden County probate courts evaluating high conflict/custody agreements and parenting plans.

Couples Wait List Currently. Openings for individuals only at this time. It is my passion to help individuals and couples heal, grow, and to become the best version of themselves, however they define that to be. It can be challenging navigating life's trials and transitions while trying to maintain healthy relationships in a world that feels disconnected and empty.

My specialty is in working with adults that are wanting to move past talk therapy in order to heal traumas by accessing their inner healing intelligence, and repair pathways for greater resiliency. In turn, this allows one to get to know the Self on a profoundly deep level, and to be working in harmony with the functions of the internal system. The tools are already within. Sometimes, we just need to be shown how to access them. In other words, I will not be giving you a fish, I will be teaching you to fish. I have been working in mental health since 2010, and witnessing the magic of healing and growth is what keeps me going.

Sometimes going through the demands of life on our own is overwhelming and it has been shown support can help us overcome these challenges. That is where we come together, to work through those traumatic experiences collaboratively. Together, we will identify behavioral patterns of the past that have worked for you and those that are no longer serving you. Together, we will explore feelings that rise inside you and learn to identify the links they have to your thoughts and how you react and respond in situations. Together, we will work on building a more positive narrative that motivates you to make the changes you want to see.

I make it a priority to spend time building a quality rapport which helps me gain an understanding of who you are, how you receive information, and how I can be most helpful.

I strive to help adolescents and young adults identify and express emotions, navigate expectations, create identity, and live life in a more fulfilling way.

People seek therapy for a variety of reasons. During the Covid-19 pandemic, isolation, stress, loss, anxiety, depression, addiction or struggles to get through the day have become increasingly common. Therapy can be a place to develop more effective coping skills and learn new behaviors. It can also be a place to heal trauma, grow in compassion and unburden beliefs that no longer serve us. I offer a gentle, non-judgmental approach to therapy that meets people where they are while also offering a supportive direction for moving forward.
