Hoarding Therapists in Boston, MA

Talk with me – about feeling weighted down and “heavy” – about struggling with feeling out of sorts all the time, about difficulties in relationships, and becoming quick to anger. Inner conflict, confusion, and uncertainty are some of the hardest spaces to live in as they create fear. We all need support guidance, and encouragement to help navigate what feels hopeless. Let's work together toward establishing a sense of safety and security within yourself. Exploring destress tolerance techniques and creating a balance that allows you to be exactly where you are in this moment – I am a “real person” and a great listener.

Choosing a new therapist can be intimidating, whether it’s your first time or you’ve been in therapy forever. I respect this and try to make the process of starting therapy one that feels as comfortable as possible from our first session. I believe the most important part of being human is our ability to empathize with others, and therapy should be a space where we can tell our story and truly feel heard, understood, and validated.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing individual counseling to adults 18 or older, and the geriatric population. My belief is that clients should be supported through validation, being given the space to freely express themselves without judgment, and by assisting them with their challenges through a holistic lens. I encourage clients to navigate their own therapy sessions so that they are in control and able to embrace the safe space provided to them. I am very passionate about providing clients with a space to grow, create newer and better versions of themselves, and healing.

Don't say it...You are exhausted, right? There doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day to get everything you had intended to do done. On the good days you are walking through a fog and on the not so good ones you call out and binge watch something on tv. Next morning the alarm and you try again. Is this you? My ideal client is someone who wants to fire me. Nothing makes me happier than a check in call from a past client who just wants to check in while things are great, or to work through a bump in the road. It's my goal to get people beyond their current hurdles and back to living their best life.

Welcome! If anxiety, obsessive thoughts, compulsions, or struggles with body image are draining your time and energy, I am hopeful that I can help. I'm a licensed psychologist with specialized training and >10 years of experience assessing and treating anxiety (panic disorder, social anxiety, generalized anxiety), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and related disorders (hair pulling/trichotillomania, skin picking, emetophobia, body dysmorphic disorder, health anxiety) in adults. I use evidence-based approaches – that is, assessment and treatment methods shown through research to be effective for my areas of specialization.

The pandemic, political division, racial injustice, and unstable world can lead us to feel off balance, stuck, or afraid. Sometimes we can cope with this on our own, and other times friends and/or family support us. Sometimes that just isn't enough; and we need an objective, nonjudgemental person who has training in counseling to help. I have many years of experience in individual and group therapy. My approach is active, genuine, and strengths-based. It is important to note that I do not take insurance at this time.

My ideal patient comes with an open mind to participate in talk therapy and narrative therapy. Ready to start a process - not necessarily eager to engage but wanting to make a change. They are sick and tired of being sick and tired.

My Ideal client: 36 yo male, divorced, with two children. The patient was incarcerated 16 years, due to drug addiction/trafficking. He spent his early childhood living with his mother and father, who sexually abused him. They were also addicted to drugs due to their childhood experiences of being abused. The patient's parents also prostituted him in exchange for drugs for others. The patient turned to drugs to escape the pain, embarrassment, and overall trauma from his childhood. He now wants sobriety and to overcome his trauma, which includes flashbacks and negative self-image, self-hatred, and hatred of his parents.
