Harvard Pilgrim Therapists in Manchester, NH
For many years, I have viewed the process of therapy as putting together a puzzle. Insights, observations and increasing levels of awareness obtained during the therapeutic process allow an individual to evolve into the person he/she wants to become. This may involve shifting some "pieces" or examining them in a different way, or taking a careful look at the "big picture." As a therapist, I see my role in this process as being one of collaborator - providing warmth, genuineness and encouragement as the pieces come together in a meaningful way.

I am a pre-licensed therapist with a Master of Social Work from the University of New England. My clinical background includes work in disability services as well as acute care and crisis settings. In acute care, I supported individuals and families during some of the most overwhelming and vulnerable moments of their lives—when emotions are heightened, decisions feel urgent, and stability can feel out of reach.

I’m especially passionate about supporting survivors of complex trauma, individuals with experiences in sex work, and those seeking support around relationships, sexual wellbeing, shame, or self-understanding.

Quality of life is something for which we all strive and can include social and interpersonal, occupational, mental, and physical well-being. We all have the capacity to improve the quality of life, but sometimes this involves making some changes. Changes may include altering our situation or responding differently to things that come up in our lives. Change can be difficult, maybe because we do not know what needs to change or because we are trying to make those changes without support. Dr. Moquin helps you to identify what you want to change and supports you in making those changes.
