Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists in 02116

I believe that it takes strength and courage to seek therapy. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore attitudes and beliefs /patterns that get in the way of accomplishing your full potential and engaging fully in life. I utilize a more holistic, mind-body approach to treatment, weaving together techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, IFS, mindfulness/acceptance, and yoga therapy to connect you with your "true, inner self", something which we often lose touch with as we go about our lives in this often fast-paced, unpredictable and stressful world. I am also certified in EMDR (www.emdria.org)

I believe we're all naturally inclined toward growth and success—each with our own strengths, desires, and goals that would lead us in the direction of contentment and happiness under optimal conditions. But we don’t live in a perfect world, and in an effort to adapt, we sometimes develop strategies that make sense in the short term, but aren't, in a lasting way, effective in moving us forward. We get stuck, leading to anxiety, frustration, and conflict, which leads in turn to us feeling bad about ourselves and our relationships.

I am a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst with over 25 years experience in private practice. Individuals come to see me about anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, eating disorders, gender identity, parenting, and life transitions. I will help you understand the causes of your stress and anxieties as we explore your thoughts, feelings and past and present day experiences. Together we will develop strategies for healing and pathways to personal change so that you may move forward and grow.

There are times in our lives when we end up feeling sad, angry, anxious, or lost. Sometimes, we find ourselves in unwanted patterns that lead to self-doubt, damaged relationships, failure to reach our potential and an inability to see our worth. Therapy can help people recognize these patterns and learn new ways to cope.

Everyone has strengths and vulnerabilities that need to be empathically recognized and understood for there to be realistic change. My job is to create a safe place where individuals and couples explore their current or long standing problems in order to find realistic solutions. A significant part of this involves carefully and mutually developing an appreciation of people's actual qualities and circumstances. I work with people in crisis or who sense they have patterns of living that could benefit from a clear understanding and want an expert and experienced partner to help facilitate their desired change.

I help couples and individuals stuck in unsatisfying, repetitive patterns find clarity and regain momentum. I have a warm, collaborative and direct style. My work is informed by years of postgraduate training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, a form of treatment that aims to fully resolve underlying causes of our distress. Additionally, I draw on the latest research in neuroscience and attachment theory, all of which allow me to formulate an approach that will be most effective for your particular circumstances.

*Accepting new clients* You are starting therapy because you have the courage to leave behind the familiar in pursuit of something different. In therapy, we will translate this strength into meaningful changes in your life. I am a fully licensed, Harvard-trained psychologist with expertise in post-traumatic stress disorder, race-based trauma/stress, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and obsessive compulsive disorder. I am also interested in navigating life transitions, role changes and grief alongside my client. You can expect to sit across from a therapist that is warm, authentic and empowering.

My approach to therapy prioritizes understanding my clients' needs and creating a welcoming and safe space for their emotions. I work with adults seeking therapy to overcome persistent anxieties and deep-rooted feelings of insecurity and inadequacy. Together, we can help you develop self-esteem to undo the impact of trauma, leading to more satisfying relationships and a more fulfilling life. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. I specialize in psychodynamic therapy, also known as psychoanalysis. This is a depth-oriented therapy that aims to resolve deep-seated issues related to anxiety, depression, and trauma.

I believe nobody should grapple with crippling anxiety. Tired of waiting for the other shoe to drop, feeling unwarranted fear, or losing sleep due to worry? There's hope. Anxiety affects millions, but we can navigate toward a brighter tomorrow. I offer personalized sessions for self-confidence, serenity, and joy. Let's embark on this journey together—because you deserve a life free from anxiety's constraints. My commitment to specializing in anxiety and its various forms stems from a recognition of the remarkable efficacy of modern therapeutic approaches.

Life experiences, transitions, and relationships provide both an opportunity to be challenged and to grow. In my practice, I welcome adults, couples, adolescents and families who wish to improve the quality of any dimension of their lives - from professional, family and parenting relationships to emotional, interpersonal, or physical challenges. Drawing upon specialized training focused on gaining insight (psychodynamic), building skills to manage emotions and behaviors (cognitive behavioral) and understanding relationships (family systems/relational), I work closely with individuals to develop understanding and identify goals that address the distinct factors that may be inhibiting life pursuits or interfering with personal, academic, or professional satisfaction and success.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and graduate of Louisiana State University. I have experience working with individuals of various diagnoses and socioeconomic backgrounds and previously worked in home settings with children and families, in-patient hospital settings with adults, and in group home settings with adolescents. I use a client-centered and strengths-based approach, strive to create a space where individuals feel they can be open and empowered throughout sessions. I believe in individualized care based on the unique needs of the client.

Our journey through life is filled with challenges that put to the test our habitual ways of coping with and seeing the world. At times, we may find that we feel stuck or find that our usual ways of approaching such stressors no longer seem to be working.

Whether on a journey seeking personal awareness, understanding and growth or dealing with major life transitions, traumatic events or relationship issues, my purpose is to help people achieve an improved quality of life.

I am trained in cognitive behavioral and psychoanalytic treatment modalities and consider psychotherapy as both an opportunity to address and reduce suffering, and to engage in a process of personal education. My practice focuses on patients who are seeking an alliance in addressing their concerns and suffering as well as patients who are seeking and willing to re-learn and engage in self-exploration toward the ends of better adjustment, understanding and awareness.

I work with clients seeking to manage stress, understand themselves better, and gain insights into the dynamics of their relationships. I specialize in helping individuals who suffer from anxiety, mood disorders, grief, or emotional dysregulation. I have experience working with individuals from multicultural backgrounds. I am committed to providing a supportive and non-judgmental environment where individuals can feel safe to express themselves and explore their unique identities. I believe that psychotherapy should be tailored to the individual and that each person should be empowered to find their own solutions.

We are licensed clinical mental health providers with over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and families. We complete Neuropsychological Evaluations, and work with individuals and families who have parenting concerns, Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, ODD, and Autism.

Many come to therapy knowing only that they are struggling to get things done, their relationships have become a source of stress rather than comfort, or they need help processing trauma, loss, or other painful experiences impacting their daily lives. Whatever your circumstances, I strive to help each person or family I work with achieve greater emotional, psychological, and social well-being, while also alleviating symptoms. I use the power of storytelling and understand that each person I work with has many, important stories to tell. I also value and work with each person's nervous system in the healing process.

There are times in life when talking to a psychotherapist is the most helpful and practical way to achieve relief from worry, hopelessness, and confusion. I offer a compassionate and down to earth therapeutic approach providing a safe place for you to develop a deeper understanding of yourself, resolve relationship issues and alleviate symptoms that are standing in the way of a more fulfilling and enjoyable life. My focus is on helping my clients feel free, rather than trapped, and more connected with others so that they can achieve what they hope for in life, work, and relationships.
