Therapists Beginning With M in Vermont

*Currently full* I focus on creating the unconditional connection and space you need to work on the issues confronting you right now. I integrate elements of EMDR, mindfulness, Internal Family Systems theory, and humanistic approaches. I work with you to address symptoms of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship issues, past and present painful experiences, various life transitions and stressors. I have completed Part 1 and 2 of EMDR training and I am excited to incorporate this highly effective approach for trauma, depression, and/or anxiety symptoms, as well as any negative patterns or experiences that feel stuck.

Forming genuine human relationships and collaboratively working with clients toward meeting their personal goals to live a happier, healthier, and fulfilling life is one of my greatest passions. I have special interest in working with young adults going through life stages of change. My approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, client-centered, and customized to each client's needs using a combination of modalities including CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and expressive arts therapy.

I believe that the relationship between client and counselor is key to healing and growth. I bring a supportive and non-judgmental approach to examine the thoughts and beliefs that keep us stuck in unproductive and often painful patterns in our lives and in our relationships. Using warmth, compassionate curiosity, humor, and especially respect, I build a strong alliance to support adults from all backgrounds and identities who are experiencing depression, anxiety, difficulty in relationships, major life transitions, substance use, abuse, and addiction. Together we can begin to identify and heal breaches in trust from the past.

I will provide a safe and comfortable space for you to explore issues that have caused you difficulties or hindered your goals. Sometimes we are stuck in a situation that requires someone to listen and prompt you to find solutions and sometimes issues are about finding yourself and ways to cope with the world. You are the expert about your needs.

I see clients who experience anxiety, depression, relationship issues, change, workplace issues, grief and loss, stress, major life-transitions, and clients who want to work on setting healthy boundaries or creating a healthy work-life balance. It's okay if you don't know what you hope to get out of therapy yet, this is something we can determine together. I believe in meeting you where you're at in life, and helping you find the skills and knowledge you need to heal and flourish.

In the 20+ years supporting adults, youths, and families, I effectively help clients tap into their own values and skills to increase positive thoughts & behaviors, achieving their desired goals (more happiness, less stress, etc.). I serve the entire lifespan with issues related to anxiety, depression and life changes with clients living Vermont, Florida & Thailand in English. I support many youth transitioning into adulthood, those facing trauma, and neurological issues such as PTSD, ADHD & ASD. Not only do I work youth individually, but also can individually support parents. I only accept insurance for clients in Vermont.

I have extensive experience in helping through evidence based practices, but ultimately, my goal is to work with you to find what tools and experiences will be beneficial and healing for you.
