Therapists in Morgan, VT

My role in the scope of my practice is being a guide providing a safe, empathetic, and no judgement space for us to work together as we find the right path for you to follow. I believe in a balanced life style connecting the mind with the body while making sure your basic needs are met. I find working together on issues related to trauma, abandonment, attachment, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and transitioning from one life experience to the next, very rewarding. I have experience with children, families, youth, teenagers, adults and the aging population.

Life can present many unexpected challenges, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. These challenges can impact our relationships and daily functioning. In our work together we will identify and develop, internal and external resources that support your ability to heal and to live in a more integrated, balanced way.

I am a Holistic Psychotherapist and Social Worker who specializes in the treatment of PTSD and trauma. Having worked with special needs children and adults for over 30 years, I find my background as a Yoga, Meditation and Philosophy Teacher, and Minister of LifeSpirit (Holistic and Health-Freedom Based Church) is well suited to those who seek a holistic approach to healing. Shiome Therapy is my trademark, interweaving ancient and modern techniques in a safe and effective way, without the use of chemical substances. I enjoy the positive transformational healing experience with each and every client!

Lao Tzu wrote, “Your own positive future begins in this moment.” This quote speaks to the heart of my clinical practice. I view therapy as a path taken together rooted in respect, humility, kindness, honesty, and perseverance. On this journey, we will develop a life of meaning and purpose grounded in your own goals and values.

It may seem a world away and yet here you are; On the brink of a new day, in which courageous, interdependent, and radical connection to the life you’ve always wanted, is only an email away.

I am currently not accepting new clients. We all have our own path to walk and challenges to face, but we don’t need to be alone on our journey to meet challenges, heal and grow. I believe in the power of a therapist/client relationship based on non-judgment, trust, openness, compassion and support. I work to create a safe space where the client can feel safe to discuss their experience. My approach comes from a humanistic, person-centered, psycho-dynamic perspective incorporating techniques from Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Neuroscience, Compassion Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy.

What a divine and complex person you are; both stunningly unique and profoundly woven in relationship to all others. For you, I offer the healing arts, which can be playful and light-hearted while being equally capable of offering safe passage through some of the richest, or most difficult experiences in our lives. Some for which, we can be left without words. May you then instead be drawn in, danced out, courted, felt, and moved. May the song of your life be sung in chorus, and the beat of your heart danced with wild surrender.

Since everyone has the ability to improve and achieve their goals, I'm eager to assist anyone who is willing to help themselves. I've been a Vermont State Trooper for thirty years, so I have a solid understanding of the range of difficulties life presents. I have assisted people in resolving marital problems, difficult family dynamics, drug misuse struggles, bereavement, and a host of other particular difficulties that Vermonters encounter. My practice is based on the conviction that every challenge can be surmounted through effective communication and faith in oneself and others. I'm excited to speak with you.

Depression, anxiety, and despair invite us to seek out deeper connections and growth. The intimacy that develops in the therapeutic relationship is different from what passes for communication in most peoples' daily lives. In the I and Thou, of genuine therapy, there is no barrier. The goal is to be able to totally see and to be seen. Pretense, persona, the need to impress, many aspects of false perception all fall away. There are no barriers. It is a way of healing soul sickness that is challenging to both therapist and patient while at the same time being effective and fulfilling. Join me for an initial exploratory meeting.

My approach is person centered and meeting each individual where they are at in their lives. We work together to address barriers that they may be facing, and work on issues that they are currently facing to ensure a better quality of life for them and those around them.

I have been providing clinical supervision for over 15 years to interns and licensed professionals of all disciplines. It is a passion of mine to supervise and support the growth of counselors and therapists seeking licensure and I am excited to support this next step in your journey. My approach to supervision is both relational and competency based beginning with the creation of specific goals to cultivate your identity as a therapist and to crystalize your clinical approach. It is my goal to help you be fully present in the therapy room, bringing connection, humor, fun, heart, and sharp clinical skills into each session.

My strength-based practice welcomes children, tweens, primary caregivers - and individual adults. I work with men, women and non binary individuals. In my role as therapist, I act as guide, collaborator, and psycho-educator to help clients learn how to relate to thoughts, feelings, and a new sense of being. I support people to transform struggles into challenges that provide opportunity for growth. In sitting with you and your experiences, I offer validation, radical acceptance and compassion. I also invite clients to speak their truth about how I can best serve them. In these ways we share trust.

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.

Are you feeling lost in your own story? Breaking patterns, finding your story, rewriting the journey, understanding ourselves, and designing new paths can be ways out of cycles of behavior. Living your best life takes work, honesty and exploration. Working together, we can develop strategies and tools you can continue to use now and throughout your life. Change begins when we start to look more closely at our lives and think intentionally about who we are and who we want to be.

I see individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to provide clients a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship to talk, feel, heal, and change. Life challenges present us with opportunities for new chapters, new growth. Helping you reach your therapy goals is of utmost importance to me. You do not need to be controlled by the past, yet do you often use old behaviors in situations wanting a new response? Are you suffering from depression, anxieties, relationship problems, fears, self-doubts, or "irrational" worries? Together we will explore ways to help you live with more awareness, more freely, and with more energy for your present.

The goal of therapy is to help people rediscover their strengths and talents, often blocked or underdeveloped, so they can be happier and more fulfilled. Since 1987, my counseling practice has specialized in enhancing creativity and helping people overcome addictions. I work with professional artists seeking support on their path and with all people who have a desire to explore personal creativity in their lives. Through compassionate listening and a focus on connecting mind and body, I encourage people to develop a greater awareness of the present moment, their body's signals, thoughts, feelings and the needs that arise.

I've developed techniques based on my personality that help people change for the better as quickly, efficiently, and painlessly as possible. My ways of helping clients require me to understand how they think, compare it to the reality I see, and discuss the differences. After practicing as a clinical psychologist in rural Vermont for 36 years, I'm now a Solution-Focused Life Coach offering short term interventions to help solve minor or major feeling-related problems. I don't take notes. I don't bill insurance. To me confidentiality is a high priority.

Clients work with me to find the person hidden behind the protective walls they have built up to feel safe. They need, and want, to feel close to family and friends again but are scared it might not work out in their favor. Their goals are often to love themselves, speak up for themselves, and know they are capable no matter how hard life may be in this season. My clients want to let the past be the past and have their future go the way they've envisioned for so long.
