For 20 years I have worked closely and collaboratively with individuals, couples and families to help them develop skills to ease stress, manage difficult emotions, improve communication and strengthen relationships. If you are seeking to discover a deeper understanding of yourself, explore family issues, improve relationships or learn skills to manage complex and challenging emotions I am here to help.

My focus is providing an opportunity to learn how to increase attention and awareness of thoughts, feelings, leading to behaviors that are not serving us; motivating shifts in thinking in order to respond rather than react. What is most satisfying to me in this work is once individuals or couples gain the awareness of how childhood experiences affect communication and reactivity, they are open to learning skills which enable them to change their communication patterns that formerly were feeding conflict and negativity, leading to empathy, compassion, deeper understanding and willingness to find resolution.

Having someone you trust and who is totally dedicated to your best interest is often the exact thing you need to open yourself up to a new perspective or make an important change in your life. I try to utilize my range of life experiences and education, a fair amount of wisdom and an ability to see effective ways to handle problems and tough situations. Regardless of your circumstances, my full intention will be to create an honest and supportive environment to help you successfully deal with the challenges you face. I see people of all ages and backgrounds.

“Discovering the truth about ourselves is a lifetime's work, but it's worth the effort” - Fred Rogers. Are you struggling to cope with current life stressors? Do you find yourself worrying about past events and experiencing anxious thoughts or depressive symptoms? Please know you are not alone and there is hope.

As a licensed mental health professional, I offer counseling services that are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. My therapeutic practice is rooted in a holistic approach to mental health and wellness, incorporating evidence-based practices such as CBT, Positive Psychology, and DBT, as well as body-based practices like yoga, breathework , mindfulness, and meditation. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or just seeking personal growth and development, I am here to support and guide you on your journey towards healing and wholeness.

In this everchanging world, life can become overwhelming at times. Whether it is regarding relationship conflicts, professional difficulties, self-esteem issues, fears or grief, transitions can be difficult to navigate. It is important to identify triggers and release negative patterns that may be preventing you from healing and moving forward toward creating healthy pathways.

I am a strength based therapist with over 25 years of Mental Health and Substance Abuse treatment. I also am a Certified Problem Gambling Specialist. My treatment is client based and work with my clients to create their own treatment plans. Therapy includes CBT, mindfulness, gentle reprocessing , and other modalities which fit the circumstances of each individual client.

Data shows that DBT is the fastest growing therapeutic approach for many diagnoses and emotional issues. Unlike "therapy as usual", DBT offers real-life, real-time strategies to manage intense emotions. This allows you to track your progress throughout your program. Our Team members have been trained by Behavioral Tech, the institute that created, and remains the front-line DBT authority. Our Team of therapists also has training in other therapeutic models that they are able to weave into your sessions, as needed. Inspired is the result of twenty plus years of serving the community's DBT and emotional healing needs.

Therapy can be a great tool whether you're feeling depressed or anxious, having trouble dealing with stress or stuck in a rut. Just as each individual is unique, so is each course of therapy. I recently relocated to Longmeadow from the Boston area where I've been providing therapy since 2005. I work with individuals, children, teens, college students and families. You will find that my style is compassionate, non-judgmental and empowering.

It takes a brave and courageous person to know when they need support and currently you are taking the first big step! At different chapters in our lives, we come across certain challenges that we look towards others to assist us in processing our thoughts and feelings. I am passionate and a complete honor in assisting others during life transitions, self-esteem/perfectionism, anxiety, depression, and during the perinatal realm that includes: parenting, family conflicts, loss, infertility, pregnancy and perinatal mood disorders.

Often my clients come to therapy when they are at the point of exhaustion, feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, uncertain of how to make positive changes in their lives, and needing some additional support. We work together to explore their strengths, resources and coping skills that work for their unique needs and life circumstances.

I am a Social Worker (LICSW) who earned my Master’s in Social Work at the University of New England. I work primarily with adolescents, young adults and families, all of whom are impacted in one way or another by anxiety, depression, family conflict, school issues, grief and trauma. I have worked in home, community and outpatient settings.

Accepting New Clients: Do you find yourself struggling, unsure of yourself, not knowing which way to turn for help? Life can be difficult at times, be it related to the impact of daily stressors, changes in health, work, loss, or relationship issues. These changes can create feelings that can leave you anxious, overwhelmed, or even saddened by your life circumstances. Because I believe that one’s path is unique to the individual, beginning "where you are at" allows us to focus on how we can work together in a safe and trusting environment to help you recognize your own strengths.

Hello; thanks for viewing my profile. Everyone has an interesting story to tell of how they got to where they are now. Therapy can help change the plot and perhaps develop new chapters. I have been a psychologist for over 25 years- initially in a medical setting and then in private practice. I have expertise working with people with medical conditions as well as with depression and anxiety. I treat couples and individuals ranging from 18 years through the lifespan.

I am a licensed independent trauma informed mental health clinician and earned my masters degree in Clinical Mental Health at Lesley College in 2000. I provide individual and family therapy to children, adolescents and adults as well as couples work. I strongly believe that developing a trustful and empowering therapeutic relationship is the bases of effective treatment. I believe every client is unique and they bring to the sessions the direction of their change and ability for that change. I believe it is my role to support, understand and empower clients to use their abilities to accomplish each goal they set out for themselves.
