Therapists in Hillsborough County, NH

My clients want to uncover the hidden version of their best self by confronting the traumas, anxieties, hardships and expectations in their lives. They are ready to build confidence and self-compassion, engage in self-care, set boundaries, improve their relationships, and put their needs first. I work with individuals who have endured traumas or struggle to engage in self-expression (including gender and sexual identity), and are ready to create positive changes, to increase their satisfaction in life and confidently navigate the world around them. They are ready for self-empowerment and to understand and accept themselves.

I am an intern therapist experienced working with individuals of all ages. I offer a safe, compassionate environment to help clients identify and achieve their short and long-term therapeutic goals. The first priority in our work together, is to create a safe, therapeutic environment.

Together we will explore strengths, barriers, and your potential to achieve your therapeutic goals.

Finding the right fit with a therapist can be challenging. I am a psychotherapist who excels at connecting with people and making them feel at ease. I'm known by my clients to be warm, engaged, humorous, direct and compassionate. I believe it is a privilege to sit with people who allow me to bear witness to their lives, stressors, and pain. I have great appreciation for the "and" that life often presents, and encourage clients to recognize and tolerate that we often experience conflicting emotions simultaneously. I approach therapy as an interactive process and enjoy working with people to develop a plan that works best for them.

At times life presents challenges that can feel overwhelming, confusing and leave us questioning how to overcome them. However, I believe that teaching clients skills to develop greater self-awareness and self-acceptance can provide them the opportunities to manage and survive crisis situations, regulate their emotions, improve their communication in relationships and ultimately take control of their recovery. My approach to treatment can be described as collaborative, warm and supportive, while also being directive in coaching clients to practice evidence-based skills.

Marriage and relationships in general can be a wonderful thing. But they can also be very difficult to navigate from time to time. Circumstances arise, and life can become confusing and chaotic. Its then that we can benefit from the assistance of a third party to help remind us why we chose our partners, friends, and lovers from the outset. I believe sound, loving personal relationships are the cornerstone of a healthy community and a fulfilling life. I value my role in helping couples and individuals navigate through their personal journeys to find the pathway to their own personal peace.

Life can be challenging! We all need help sometimes but it can be hard to ask for help. I want to make it easy. I’ve been a counselor for over thirty years and have helped people with many of the issues we all face at one time or another. I am not judgmental because I feel that we have more in common than what seems to separate us. I believe the most important aspect of a counseling relationship is to establish a safe space where we can connect and I can truly listen to understand your concerns and goals. From there we can sort out the issues and come up with a plan to help you get on track with living the life you want.

**Availability may be limited** Most people experience challenges in life and painful moments that can seem difficult to understand and get through. However, I believe with the right supports, we are capable and worthy of healing and resiliency. I knew from an early age I was passionate about helping people find ways to recover from adversity and develop a stronger sense of self, meaning, and happiness. I firmly believe feeling comfortable and understood is essential to the outcome of therapy. I take a compassionate yet direct stance, and strive to act as a coach and active partner in helping individuals reach their goals.

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 16 years of clinical experience, specializing in trauma/ PTSD, addictions, relationships and other life transitions, I support clients through a Holistic approach towards personal healing.

Do you get into the same circular fights with your spouse or significant other and just can't find your way out? Questioning your relationship in general? Ready to make it work but not sure what to do? I can help.

I am an experienced therapist specializing in healthy love. I believe the circle of love and attachment relationships with ourselves and others is essential for growth and healing. I provide support and guidance if you're struggling with relationship patterns not serving yourself or others. When we look closely enough in an authentically safe space, there are often traumas at the root of our pain and suffering. Unprocessed trauma can often unconsciously trigger chronic emotional reactions and health issues. We'll partner to gain insight for tangible change in areas of your life that hold meaning to you.

*The best way to reach me is email. I am a master’s level therapist, providing counseling for adults with a variety of mental health concerns. I utilize a client-centered approach, because it is important that you feel understood and heard when dealing with stressors including depression, anxiety, loss, addiction, chronic pain, life transitions, trauma, depression, interpersonal concerns, and self-esteem.

It is never easy to make the decision for change in one’s life and coming to counseling is no exception. While the present is the time to make changes and take action to improve one’s well-being, it can also be important to examine our pasts and how they may influence our beliefs and behaviors today. In sessions, we will work towards a deeper understanding of yourself as an individual and use that to find what may work for you. My passion is in working with individuals who have experienced different types of traumas, individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, and those experiencing major life changes.

Many people struggle with anxiety or depression and need support. Have you experienced traumatic events in your life that you're having a hard time coping with? It's hard to do it all on your own all the time.

I am currently welcoming new clients into my practice who are wanting to make positive changes in their life. My approach is client centered in order to honor each individual's story as well as assist in their healing process. Both my clientele and the therapeutic modalities I use are very eclectic and differ depending on what serves each client best in their life journey. I am passionate about supporting those who struggle with anxieties relating to sense of self, family dynamics, life transitions, perfectionism, and trauma. My goal is to guide you in becoming your unique version of "best self."
