Person-Centered Therapists in Bolton, MA
Sometimes we know we need to make a change and it takes us a while to be ready for it. Sometimes things happen in our lives that require us to get immediate support. Whether it's needing a compassionate ear to listen to us, some new coping strategies to deal with ongoing stressors, or guidance on even where to start, we can all benefit from counseling. I am prepared to guide you through this process and work on your goals, whether long term or immediate.

I enjoy working with people of all ages who are interested in finding meaning in and making peace with their lives. My high school English teacher left two indelible ideas in my head, a quote from Socrates "The unexamined life is not worth living" and the Latin question "Quo Vadis?" or "Where are you going?". Since then, I have not only held this sense of curiosity for my own journey but practiced the profession in which I get to be present with other people as they embrace curiosity for their own lives, face their challenges, losses and changes, heal their wounds, and find their directions.

Currently only meeting with clients via telemedicine. In my practice, I focus on creating a calming space where reflection is welcomed. I believe in the importance of a space where you can fully live in the present moment with your thoughts and feelings. Life can be filled with hardships, challenges, and transitions. Within this space, I make it a goal to support all of my clients in finding their inner needs, wants, and strengths that often become dismissed through the chaos of life. I take a holistic, collaborative, and person centered approach as I fully believe the client is the expert of themselves.

I use several therapeutic approaches including person-centered, strength-based, compassion focused, multicultural, and CBT.
It's ok to ask for help. It's true that I can't erase your past or instantly take away your pain (although I wish I could). However, I can help you carry your burdens more lightly, whether that means adjusting to major life transitions, learning new ways of coping with anxiety or managing the emotional strain of living with cancer (as a patient or caregiver). Additionally, I have expertise in health-related issues and enjoy working with clients around eating disorders, chronic illness (long Covid, diabetes, etc.) and prenatal/postpartum mental health. Therapy is your time to feel supported and understood.

My approach is a compassionate, person centered perspective focused on goal setting.
Change is good, but change is also hard! In my experience, therapy is about working with individuals to help them reach their life goals, despite obstacles and maximize their potential. Despite the hard work involved, my mission is for therapy to be a positive experience. Simply stated, it should be a collaborative effort based on problem solving, support and the exchange of ideas. Additionally, treatment needs to be developed in the context of a person's life experiences and history. My hope is as treatment progresses individuals can move forward with what they have learned to independently facilitate future change.

I combine a person-centered & existential approach with tangible skill-building (CBT, DBT) to help clients process, heal, and grow.
Now accepting new clients, individual adults only. Prioritizing mental health is something that many of us are talking about, but it takes courage and initiative to actually pursue it. Maybe you've become aware of some hurts or trauma that are holding you back from living a full life. Maybe you are going through vocational difficulties, relationship strain, or find yourself doing things you really don't want to do over and over again. There are times in life when our experiences can leave us feeling isolated, alone, unloved and questioning whether we are "good enough."
