Teletherapy for Middlebury, VT

Accepting self-pay only at this time. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Life happens, so it helps to have a person who will really listen, without judgement. When we lay down our burdens, we begin to feel lighter, heal places that were hurt, and find a way back to our true selves. Therapy can be about self-development and coming to truly know and understand ourselves. People develop skills for managing life, emotions and relationships, claiming their self-worth and sense of competence. I specialize in supporting people with holistic, research based psychotherapy. CBT, ACT, IFS, ARC, DBT, and Jungian components.

Psychoanalytic work is an intensive therapy that focuses on increasing self-understanding and a sense of personal freedom. It is very helpful for anxiety, depression, OCD, relationship issues, trauma and managing grief around life transitions. I have also trained as an end-of-life doula and offer grief support groups and trainings.

I work with children, teens, adults and families with an array of concerns such as everyday life stressors, communication issues, life transitions, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, divorce, depression, social skills, self-esteem, and many more. As we work together, we will move at a pace that feels comfortable for you, focus on goals that are important to you and implement a plan and skills to create confidence in managing stressors and challenges.

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.

Therapy can help break old patterns and habits which can stand in the way of forming new opportunities or relationships. I have been practicing as a counselor in Vermont for fourteen years, working with children, adolescents, and families. I am also trained as a crisis clinician. I have worked closely with families and teens experiencing depression, suicidal ideation, trauma, anxiety, family conflict and school challenges.

I provide space and time that is just for you: opportunities to work on your goals in a caring and encouraging environment. I offer a safe and nurturing space, both in person and over telehealth. I also provide outdoor sessions, allowing time in nature and/or movement to support your process. Take time to learn and practice self-compassion, reflection, connection, and engage your inner wisdom. I welcome and encourage LGBTQ and BIPOC individuals as well as others who face injustice or marginalization.

Hi there! Are you struggling to feel joy in your everyday life? Do you have difficulty managing your stress or worries? Are you looking to gain more insight into repeating patterns in your life? We all go through tough times in our lives, and talking to a professional can be incredibly helpful in not only learning new ways to approach the problems we face, but also in building resilience, finding joy and creating meaning through adversity. I have a focus on working with neurodivergent folks assigned female at birth.

It's often difficult to reach out for help when you most need it, and it can be hard to speak with someone you've never met about personal issues. On the other hand, it can be easier to do with a person who is a trained, neutral professional. I can be objective and understanding in a way that well-meaning friends and family often cannot. My work with couples, individual adults including seniors, or the younger population, begins in a friendly, professional manner whereby we move towards knowing each other better. A rapport between us is essential in accomplishing our work.

Welcome. You may have arrived here seeking a sense of calm, safety, connection, confidence, motivation, clarity or life balance. You may be grappling with difficult life transitions, relationship challenges, or trauma experiences that have given rise to feelings of exhaustion, isolation, fear, sadness, overwhelm, or even confusion. These burdens can make it hard to find joy and meaning, feel connected to loved ones, or show up in your daily life. With compassion and acceptance, I'm here to support you in healing the past, coping and thriving in the present, and taking steps towards the life you aspire to live.

You might be struggling with difficult emotions, stressed by the demands of life, or stuck in painful cycles in your relationships. You sense you could be more connected to yourself, to others, and to the deeper purpose of your life. Maybe you've tried to make things better on your own, but you sense that with the right kind of support you could thrive in new ways in your relationships, and in other areas of your life. You're on the edge of growing into something new.

I offer videoconference therapy over the HIPPA compliant "zoom" platform and in person sessions when COVID numbers are low. My initial focus is to create a confidential, safe environment for a person to talk about their concerns. I offer psychotherapy that provides a way to understand problems and patterns related to moods, thoughts, behaviors and relationships; to find ways to untangle them; and to develop new ways of seeing and responding. This work will support you in developing self-compassion, accessing your sense of agency, and cultivating effective coping strategies.

Seek me out when you are having problems with depression, anxiety, pain, stress, self- esteem, anger, health, or in your relationship. Marital problems such as loss, betrayal, trust, anger or alienation are common problems that couples or individuals bring to me. I have a warm, clear, reflective, interpersonal style. I tailor my approach to the needs of the client. This means we may look at your need for dealing with negative thoughts, how to manage your pain, relaxation training, or look at your developmental experiences to design corrective experiences. Clearly decision- making, communication skills, managing emotion could be addressed.

I have been practicing as an Art Therapist and Counselor in Vermont for 10 years, working with children, teens, and adults who are in need of support. I have a holistic approach to therapy and am a Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider. I integrate nutritional interventions, mindfulness and art therapy into my practice to address the mental, physical and spiritual health of my clients. I specialize in working with adults, adolescents, children and parents dealing with issues around life transitions, stress management, anxiety, depression, grief, communication, and emotional regulation.

Psychotherapy is both an art and a science. I believe that my strength as a psychotherapist is that I am informed equally by my theoretical foundation as well as my creativity and intuition. The first part of my theoretical foundation is drawn from insight-oriented theories. I'm interested in how the interplay of your history and personality has contributed to your current concerns. The process of learning about and accepting who you are contributes to your healing. Through gentle and direct exploration and encouragement I will guide you toward self- awareness and compassionate self -acceptance.

I am currently accepting new clients. My practice is client centered with the goal of creating wholeness and peace. I provide counseling services to individuals from the teen years through to end of life. Typically, I work with folks struggling with depression, anxiety, substance use, those within the LGBTQ+ community, and folks struggling to navigate life changes. If this sounds like you, please reach out, let's see if we are a good fit!

Grieving the death of a loved one is among the most challenging and layered experiences one will ever face. While sadness is a nearly universal response to loss, you may have discovered it is often hard to understand the confusion and numbness you sometimes feel. This can lead to isolation rather than meaningful connections that support understanding and rebuilding. Trust your instinct to reach out and share the intensity of your loss, despite your vulnerability. In a safe, compassionate environment you can learn to understand and embrace your grief, bringing new meaning and strength to your life.

I provide collaborative, creative and practical counseling and psychotherapy. Using a holistic approach that integrates the latest research on neuroscience with mind, body and spirit, we will work together to help you overcome troublesome patterns and to develop greater well-being, confidence, and happiness. I have specialty and advanced training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, EMDR, and somatic therapy.

Are depression, anxiety, worry, and stress preventing you from living your life to its full potential? Are you looking to lead a more gratifying life with healthy relationships and greater fulfillment? I work with men and women to identify the individual challenges that are holding them back. I will teach you skills and techniques to help you overcome your obstacles, decrease feelings of anxiety or sadness and increase your self-esteem and self-confidence. Together we will equip you with the ability to navigate confidently through the ups and downs of life allowing you to enjoy your life to its fullest.

Good therapy can produce long lasting life changes. I approach therapy as a collaborative effort. I start with where the client finds themselves in the present. I listen with both curiosity and empathy to understand an individual's unique experience. In treatment I create an atmosphere of trust where together we can identify your strengths, find practical solutions to problems and unfold underlying difficulties that are obstacles to your experience of a rich and fulfilling life.
