Therapists in West Springfield, MA

I worked as a therapist & supervisor for a local community mental health agency for over 9 years, where I developed a specialty in working with adolescents & adults, particularly around anxiety, depression, relationships & boundary setting. My ability to form trusting & genuine relationships with my clients is one of my strengths, and my hope is that we can develop a relationship that feels comfortable & grounding. It is my belief that you are the expert on you, and that by working together we can explore the skills & knowledge within you.

3/28/24: Telehealth only. Six hr time difference ahead of EST, with weekday morning and Sunday hours. I am a board-certified art therapist and licensed professional counselor with 17 years of clinical experience. I specialize in early childhood mental health and work with all ages. I trust in the wisdom of clients' abilities to explore their own themes, symbols, and stories. Because we all develop our senses of self and safety within the context of early relationships, family/relationship-based work is essential. I am trauma and polyvagal theory-informed. My approach is flexible, solution-focused, and non-judgmental.

I enjoy working alongside people to unravel and understand how the past influences the present, how our bodies and minds react to and remember terrifying or confusing situations, and to make new space for holding uncomfortable feelings or thoughts. I enjoy working with a broad range of people.

The demands of school, work, family and social relationships can be overwhelming for people of all ages. Societal pressures may add to our stress. We all need support as we navigate the different stages of our lives. We can get stuck, feel very low, or become increasingly anxious along the way. Children and adolescents may express or cope with these difficult emotions with troubling behavior. Parents often feel helpless or lost trying to support their children. Individual and family psychotherapy can help us better understand and manage our emotions, increase our sense of worth and control, and live a more fulfilling life.

If you find yourself feeling anxious, angry, sad, frustrated, overwhelmed, and tired I can assist with tools to help you alleviate some of these symptoms. Many times we feel so overwhelmed that we do not have or find the strength to cope. We struggle to find solutions to either manage our daily life or a major life event, and we feel that our world just crumbles. Sometimes we have family issues, struggle with boundaries, communication, and find no direction or drive to change our lives. If any of these issues sound familiar, I can help you find balance so that you can live life in a healthy and harmonious way.
