Therapists Beginning With N in Vermont

I offer therapy services for children, adolescents, adults, and families. Developing a dialogue between therapist and client we work together in the relationship to understand, and expand one's understanding of one's personal and life narrative. Meeting the individual at their level is important in the development of a trusting working alliance. My belief in the therapeutic relationship itself plays a pivotal role in the healing process, where my work is founded on trust, empathy, and humor. I offer my commitment to the human journey and look forward to working collaboratively with my clients to renewed understanding, growth, and healing.

Okay. Here's the thing. Nobody really knows how therapy works, or why some people get better with one approach and some another. What we do know is that if you connect with your therapist, and if you really commit to digging in and doing the work, healing and change can happen, and things can get better. And I can help you with that. I'll listen to you. I'll pay close attention. I'll meet you where you're at, with empathy and compassion and even some humor. And I'll tell you the truth.

A neuropsychological evaluation can provide valuable information regarding an individual's current and future cognitive functioning. My specialty involves the assessment of cognition across a wide span of central nervous system disorders including neurodegenerative conditions (e.g., Alzheimer's disease), traumatic brain injury (TBI), substance abuse, attention deficit syndromes, and autistic spectrum disorder. My work examines the relationship between brain disease and cognition while differentiating the contribution of psychological factors such as depression or anxiety. I also perform independent medical examinations (IME).

Are your having a hard time adjusting to the new normal after the pandemic? Are you limited by not knowing your true self or do you have troubles communicating with others? Do you question your role in a relationship, or have you ever thought: “How can I openly communicate my partner about my needs, wants, and deep desires?” I know that finding and understanding the “true you” while trying to relate with others is a difficult process to do by alone. Together, therapy can help you to develop resiliency through creating new tools to accommodate your new lifestyle while adjusting to the new ways of connecting with yourself and others.

Do you want to make a change and don't know where to start? Perhaps you're doing well enough but want to go to your next level of potential. Together, we will be looking for options aligned with your personal and professional goals. Sometimes life can be especially difficult. If you or someone you love is hurting, or just need a new perspective, solutions are available. You deserve a life well lived. My definition of recovery is: The journey of becoming the person you were born to be. Everyone is recovering from something. I often have a waiting list but please do call for further discussion. Time marches on.

I am currently offering a sliding scale, as we all deal with these extraordinary times. Living a human life can be hard. Each of us is likely to encounter problems or dilemmas that leave us feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed. We may have been hurt a while ago but still unable to get past it. We may seek relief yet not find resolution. Often we are caught between wanting to get through something, yet enacting ineffective behaviors meant to keep us safe. This is when it can be helpful to have someone help us face what life is asking from us.

Life presents challenges sometimes. Learning how to access our resiliency, explore negative thought patterns, and strengthen new positive beliefs assists us in creating and maintaining a thriving daily life. I recognize that each person is diverse, having a unique family, social, and cultural history, and that healing and growth can be dependent on numerous factors. I use therapy methods that help bridge communication with children, youth and adults. I hold also hold BA in studio art that contributes to the creativity element of my work with individuals.
