I utilize evidence-based approaches including but not limited to CBT and ACT. The spiritual heart of my work, though, aligns best with a model called IFS which helps us makes sense of our internal conflicts, contradictions, and self-undermining behavior. I work to support my clients in releasing from well-worn patterns of self-criticism, anxiety, irritability, guilt, or sadness that keep them stuck, to establish more vital ways of engaging in the world.

I believe positive change in therapy takes place in a safe and collaborative environment. I strive to put my clients at ease with compassion, candor, and humor. I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in perinatal and infertility issues, foster care and adoption and the LGBTQ+ population.

I am a licensed psychologist and have worked within the behavioral health field for the past 20 years. I seek to provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment in which adult clients (18+) can better understand and overcome their struggles, recognize their strengths, and work toward attaining their goals. I have a special interest in the treatment of anxiety disorders (panic, phobias, OCD, GAD), depression, and trauma/PTSD using cognitive behavioral therapy and interventions demonstrated by research to reduce debilitating symptoms.

I’m a psychotherapist, passionate explorer, and lifelong learner committed to guiding individuals toward truth and wholeness. I blend experiential therapy with a deep reverence for the sacred and unseen realms of consciousness, creating a space where science, spirituality, and the wisdom of the natural world converge. I’m attuned to the intersections of ecology, neurobiology, and the spirit—an approach informed by my PhD studies in Integral Psychology. Whether you’re struggling with past trauma, navigating addiction, or searching for a renewed sense of purpose, I invite you to join me in this space of possibility.

I offer services to adolescents and adults experiencing emotion distress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, "gray area" alcohol use/marijuana use, and transitional issues.

Everyone could do better at finding balance in their lives. I enjoy helping people find their place of balance, to take better care of yourselves and your relationships. When life throws stressful or traumatic events at you, it can feel overwhelming. I can help you manage these effects.

When faced with life’s unavoidable stressors, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The struggles of day to day life can often leave individuals feeling frustrated, hopeless, and powerless to work towards change. I enjoy helping clients feel understood and overcome fears that have been preventing them from living life to its fullest. Sometimes simply knowing that the worst case scenario won’t destroy us makes a daunting goal seem more attainable.

No two clients are there same, which is I base my therapeutic approach and treatment on the individual needs and desired outcomes of each client. I will get to know you, your concerns, history, goals, barriers, hopes and anything else that impacts you or your ability to live more comfortably; then we will work together to determine the best steps to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
I primarily see my client's via telehealth (zoom) but also have offer in person sessions during nature walks (on public walking trails/paths) in south eastern Massachusetts/Rhode Island.

You are going through a life transition and finding it more difficult than you imagined. You feel out of place, different from your coworkers, peers, or family members. Stress makes it tough for you to function at your best and you are burnt out. You find yourself feeling depressed, anxious, angry, lonely, or misunderstood.

I believe that compassion, flexibility, and the willingness to listen carefully are the foundations of a good therapeutic relationship. I will work with you to create a safe and caring space where we can explore what you would like to change and develop a path towards realizing that change. To do this, I will draw from multiple theories and techniques to provide the individualized structure that will allow you to move towards your goals. In general, I view my job to be finding ways to help you realize your own strengths and discover your own solutions.

Hello! I'm Becs, a couples and relationship therapist.

I support queer, gender expansive, neurodiverse, and polyamorous and non-monogamous couples, polycules and other relationship structures. I also specialize in working with stepparents and parents who are navigating a non-traditional family structure.
