Music Therapy in Derry, NH

Life brings many challenges. Possibly, you are feeling out of balance with the pressures of work and/or personal relationships. Maybe, anxiety and stress are causing you to lose sleep, feel depressed or act out with excessive behaviors; such as drinking too much, overeating or experiencing repetitive, self defeating thoughts. You may be struggling to manage or stop behaviors that create shame, guilt or ongoing regret. With 17 years of clinical experience, specializing in trauma/ PTSD, addictions, relationships and other life transitions, I support clients through a Holistic approach towards personal healing.

I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to make change and want to find ways to gain greater control of their lives. I believe impactful changes can be made for anyone who has a willingness to explore themselves on a deeper level including their personal history, relationships, coping skills, triggers, hopes and dreams. I believe it's important to maintain consistency in meetings, clear identification of goals and ways to measure personal success. I'm more than willing to dig into techniques that work best for a client and enjoy when people bring their own interests, passions, and ideas into sessions.

The ideal client is anyone having a human experience in life and wants to maximize their moments of positive influence. Like many of my clients, I have learned to experience the ups and downs in life with improving my emotional regulation. The tools that we actually utilize need to be tangible and realistic to a busy, and sometimes overwhelming environment. The goals may not be to increase happiness,but increase moments of happiness, and moreover to increase awareness and mindful practice. The end goal of an ideal client is to learn how to survive and thrive in varying degrees of health and stress; to be alive and well.

During these chaotic times it is more important than ever to take space and choose self-care. I am a clinical mental health counselor with experience in working with anxiety, depression, and helping professionals. I am also partnered with Rebellious Wellness where we assist individuals to liberate themselves from the influences of diet culture, find freedom in their minds and accept their bodies.

TRUST Peer reviewed articles published in recent years regarding and quantifying the importance of trust between a client and his or her mental health clinician indicate that the professional’s education or credentials have less to do with positive therapeutic outcomes than trust between the client and clinician. Finding a clinician you might trust can be a time consuming proposition. However, a relatively quick and totally free phone call may give you an initial indication of whether the professional on the other end of the phone may be suited to help you with the present difficult situation at hand.
