Out of Network Therapists in Bristol, RI

I work primarily with individuals struggling with grief: whether related to loss around death, illness, divorce or a break-up; as well as job termination and retirement. Life transitions of many kinds usually entail a grieving process-even positive ones such as a new marriage, career change, graduation from high school or college, a geographic move or the birth of a child. With these changes, you may feel uneasy that you are not as happy as you "should be". We are always writing the story of our lives. What do you want more of? What needs to be let go? I offer supportive space for that creative process; to reach for a bigger dream.

I have expertise in trauma-focused treatment, as well as treatments designed to address substance use and other risk behaviors (e.g., self-harm, suicidal thoughts and behaviors). My approach is always rooted in research, but is flexible to your needs and goals.

Therapy takes patience and openness from all whom are involved in the process. I have counseled couples, individuals, and families trying to manage psychological, emotional, and behavioral stressors. Many of my clients are seeking help with PTSD, grief/loss, eating/body image issues, family/relational situations, and sexual concerns.

Success, change, happiness, hope, kindness, balance - these, among other traits, are things that we strive for & work towards in life but at times feel like they are completely & totally out of reach. Sometimes there are roadblocks & barriers that make the future seem unobtainable and that there is nothing but darkness ahead. It's moments like these that define us. When we are at a crossroads and important choices need to be made - this is where I come in. I wish to offer support, guidance, and help with the hope and intention that together, change can happen, skills can be built and goals can be attained.

Welcome. I am a licensed psychologist in private practice, providing evidence-based counseling and psychotherapy for individuals across the lifespan. I have over 20 years of experience providing supportive, professional care to persons struggling with a variety of issues, including: anxiety; depression; stress management; sports/performance psychology; spiritual/religious concerns; loss/grief; relationship difficulties; and trauma.

Current practice is provided 100% through telehealth. I work with preteens, teens, and adults, holding a certification for the treatment of Child and Adolescent Anxiety as well as a certificate in Traumatic Stress Studies. I place high value on providing compassionate, holistic care for each person and family I work with. I will work collaboratively with you and/or your child to uncover strengths and problem solving abilities, broaden self-awareness, increase distress tolerance, and when appropriate to decrease the body's overactive response to anxiety and stress. Together we will identify pathways to reach your therapeutic goals.

I believe that life is a journey, and with every journey there are bumps in the road. Issues may come up in life that lead to feelings of confusion, anxiety, anger, or depression. It may help to find a person that will listen and can offer a helping hand on that road. I feel that with my years of experience and objective approach, I can be that person. There is a beacon of hope there, for minor bumps as well as life altering losses. I wish you well on your road and hope to hear from you.

I am a clinical psychologist in Warren, RI with an expertise in addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, existential challenges, and loss of meaning and purpose. I use my expertise in evidence-based therapies to help clients move beyond symptoms and lead more fulfilling lives. My approach to therapy explores how thoughts, feelings, and behavior shape who we are and what we do. Within this framework, we figure out what you value most in life to assist in guiding you to reach your goals.

I create a safe, supportive environment so that you feel comfortable sharing information that will allow me to help you. I am an engaged listener, and I enjoy asking questions and occasionally assigning "homework" as we work through obstacles that are preventing you from achieving your goals.

Are you facing challenges in parenting, relationships, dealing with trauma, or navigating anxiety triggers? I have a deep understanding of these issues, drawn from my personal experiences. I’m passionate about helping others manage and overcome them. I love working with children, teenagers, & couples. I enjoy drawing children & adolescents in with play & art therapy. These creative approaches help them to express themselves & foster a strong therapeutic bond between us. I guide couples to move from distress, distance, or contention to a place of renewed closeness & intimacy.

My practice and interventions start where you are. I specialize in working with clients struggling with a wide range of stressors. I do not believe in a one size fits all model, and will pull from different approaches utilizing interventions that best fit your needs. We will work together to develop a treatment plan with achievable goals that makes sense for you. My training as a yoga instructor guides my interventions in being keenly aware of the mind/body connection and the impact of emotional health on the body.

Hello and welcome! I am a licensed professional counselor who sees clients ages 18+ for individual therapy. I offer in-person and Telehealth hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays in Bristol, RI.

These difficulties can range from anxiety to low self esteem to relational discord and beyond. I look forward to joining you in this next step.

Working collaboratively within the helping relationship is imperative to my professional values. I believe that taking time for yourself within the therapeutic setting allows you to identify your goals and seek support and guidance to navigate the best path toward finding a place in life you are comfortable with. I specialize in treating pre-teens, teens, and adults. I have years of experience treating clients with ADHD, behavioral disorders, depression, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, stress and anger management, poor self-esteem, life transition issues, social/emotional difficulties impacting a child's learning, grief, divorce and family adjustments, trauma and loss.

I am not currently accepting new clients. I believe we all have a story or understanding of our lives that includes the past, present and our vision (however vague) for the future. There are times and events in our lives that disrupt this narrative and strain our coping skills, our vision of ourselves and, at times, the meaning of our lives. Whether the moment that we decide to seek out therapy is the culmination of events or the result of a significant change, it is an important decision.
