Therapists in Somersworth, NH

Life's many challenges, such as aging, chronic illness, cognitive changes, grief and loss can all take a toll on a person's emotional well-being. Emotions such as, sadness, fear and shame can make you feel stuck or even hopeless. My practice focuses on helping older adults develop tools to face these challenges head on and find a kind of peace.

My telehealth practice focuses on helping those experiencing anxiety, isolation, grief, difficulty with life transitions, and issues of aging. I have extended experience working with older adults, and their families, with issues including loss of role, purpose, changes in health and independence. Good collaboration can offer support and clarity, to help make positive change.
