Parenting Therapists in Dukes County, MA

Death and/or abandonment of a primary caregiver early in life often lays the foundation for anxiety and depression. Untimely losses can resonate both in the body and the mind creating a fear of moving forward. In therapy we explore attachment issues from the perspective of early development. I also see patients struggling with other losses, including cognitive decline in themselves or their family member. I have an in-depth and empathic understanding of how families and individuals live with the intense stresses of not only of personal loss, but everyday life.
