Therapists in Providence, RI

At Lotus Healing Psychotherapy and Counseling Center LLC, we understand that life has many challenges that can sometimes feel overwhelming. Our goal is to guide you through your issues, relationship issues, stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief and loss, social skills, and multicultural issues. We also assist with Bariatric and Immigration Evaluations.

Part of the decision to start therapy is the decision to enter into a trusting relationship. The relationship and trust between therapist and client is the basis of healing. I work collaboratively with clients to help define and meet treatment goals in a non-judgmental, kind and relaxed environment. When life feels overwhelming and decision making becomes difficult, finding a safe place to explore your feelings can be the first step towards a happy and balanced life. I love my work and feel privileged to be able to share the journeys of my clients.

Providing psychotherapy in a caring, compassionate and comfortable atmosphere.Clients are treated as unique individuals, never losing sight of the fact that their issues are not expected to fit a specific diagnostic code, but instead are varied and distinct in every case. This requires, demands and deserves a client-centered therapeutic approach that is the cornerstone of my practice.I have dedicated my profession to improving and enhancing the mental health and well-being of my clients. Adhering to the guiding principle that a healthful mind is inextricably bound to physical health and merits, at the very least, the same level of care and concern.

My practice is client-centered and focuses on helping individuals adapt, reflect and cope with struggles in a supportive and safe environment. I work with children of all ages and adults, individually, and as a family and have experience treating individuals from diverse education, racial, religious and sexual orientation backgrounds. I primarily use evidence-based treatment approaches (e.g., Cognitive Behavioral) tailored to meet your needs and/or those of your family. I treat a broad range of problems, including anxiety, depression, stress management, parenting/child behavior problems, and managing health conditions and healthy lifestyle changes.

Welcome! I love what I do, and have been providing healing space for others for 10+ years. I work with clients who come from many different backgrounds, and who have a wide variety of needs. I offer supports for adults or children/teens, for individuals, couples and/or families. I am a best clinical fit for those seeking to do targeted work to enrich their relationships and their lives with more depth and meaning, or to explore and address the root of their struggles. I also provide clinical supervision to other therapists. I serve people living in the states of MA, RI, and VT, as well as those living overseas/internationally.

*** I am not taking on new clients currently, please be in touch if you are interested in being placed on a waitlist. I am holding group sessions in September, please see below.** Often times change is met with resistance, and as a therapist, I provide a supportive role in assisting others to recognize and overcome blocks, fear and distraction. Supporting healing in adolescents and adults whom wish to become their best selves, is fostered by a relationship built upon trust, compassion and open communication. I use a variety of holistic modalities, including mindfulness, expressive arts, DBT, and EMDR.

I have been working in the mental health field for over 13 years and specialize in serving children, adolescents and young adults. I have spent those years working with children, adolescents, and families helping with behavioral issues at home and in schools, as well as adults suffering from co-occurring disorders. I specialize in treating anxiety, anger/behavior management, relationship/ social problems, ADHD, depression, and stress. I work to help my clients towards reaching their individual goals in therapy and focus treatment on what works best for each person.

***Not accepting new clients at this time (updated May 7, 2021) Times of transition can be a time of great growth, or struggle, or, often, both. I specialize in working with women in the transition to parenthood who may need help adjusting to new roles and demands. I also work with college students transitioning from adolescence to adulthood, and midlife career changers, to name but a few of the many transition times I've counseled clients through in therapy.
