Therapists in Winooski, VT

In my work with clients my goal has been to develop strong, trusting relationships that foster awareness and growth in a way that works for each individual. I have experience working with individuals and families managing depression and anxiety, grief, chronic health issues, caregiver stress, relationship and interpersonal issues, and many other types of stress related and emotional concerns. I tend toward an action oriented approach focused on developing stronger coping, self-care, communication and relationship strategies.

I have a focus on providing collaborative support within a framework of social justice and a strong belief that each person has everything they need within them and sometimes we all lose touch with these things and could use some outside support to discover our answers. I view my role as a therapist as the bridge to the answers within that may be difficult to see. I believe that the context of our lives is important to understanding our experiences.

Have you been so overwhelmed you can't seem to find the energy to move? Are you too anxious to take the next step, or are you frustrated that you are getting upset over trivial things? Do your interactions with other people bring new struggles and pain? It's not ridiculous that you are responding to life’s challenges in a particular way. You are not a bad parent or partner. You are dealing with situations that have become a roadblock to your happiness. Deep down, we are meant to be happy, and too much daily stress can drain us of contentment and joy.

My passion comes from helping people move past the losses and traumas of their past and into a rich and full life. Trauma and the losses we experience in life can wound us on every level - physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. My desire is to see you pick up the pieces and create a beautiful life beyond the struggle of grief, anxiety, postpartum difficulties, infertility, disordered eating, childhood abuse, and other painful life events. My approach is one of compassion, honesty, and a little bit of sass - to help you rediscover a life of passion, beauty, joy, fulfillment, and empowerment.

***Hello. I am currently not accepting new clients. Feel free to check back in another time.

*** I am NOT taking new clients at this time*** I am an advance-trained clinical hypnotherapist and LCMHC. I have personally experienced the healing and growth that comes from using clinical hypnotherapy within a supportive therapeutic milieu. I find the accelerated, effective results from clinical hypnosis very impressive and enjoy helping others heal and actualize change with this powerful technique. I approach counseling from a client-centered perspective, meet people where they are at, and help them get to where they want to be without judgement or pressure.

I am not currently accepting new clients. My approach is to provide a safe and therapeutic environment that encourages vulnerability, curiosity, and self-reflection. I enjoy working with individuals who are seeking support through a challenging transition or experience as well as those looking for a space to strengthen their quality of life through personal awareness.

FIRST, MY PRACTICE IS CLOSED, AND I AM NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I prefer to be contacted through email (megcat77@gmail.com) or text (802-598-2937). I have been practicing as a psychologist for over 30 years. My Masters degree in Clinical Psychology is from St. Michael's College, and my undergraduate degree is from U.V.M. I also completed a two year post-graduate training program in Behavioral Medicine, which provided me with a specialty in working with clients with chronic medical conditions. I teach coping skills and provide support to clients who are dealing with injuries and illnesses.

Congratulations! You've just made your next step toward changing something in your life for the better.

As a clinical social worker, I believe that we all have unique strengths and capacities to face the challenges in our lives. I work with my clients in a collaborative, empowering way.

Working with the stories and thoughts we carry about ourselves and the world, we work to create new ideas, beliefs and behaviors that will lead to a more fulfilling life.
