I have been working with children and families for over 16 years. I am passionate about supporting families and children to reach their full potential, in any place they may be in life. I have experience working as a developmental specialist and a mental health counselor. I support families to work through a number of challenges, including, developmental differences in a child, trauma, and relationship issues. I use an eclectic approach of parent-child interaction therapy, strength based and attachment-based approaches.

I conduct individual, couples and family psychotherapy in both English and Spanish. I specialize in couples and families, addressing problems like depression, anxiety, low self esteem, ADHD and how these issues affect communication and interaction patterns. I help couples learn to communicate their emotional needs and to see each other in a new light. I also work with children in the context of the family and help parents deal with their child's behavioral/emotional problems. I have a great deal of experience in diversity issues, including cultural, gender, and socioeconomic disparities.

It is as though a “What if…” reel is running in your mind. You are so exhausted by the second (third and fourth!) guessing of your choices and your interactions with others. Dealing with your anxiety is taking up so much energy. Sometimes you try to avoid the things or situations that are causing your anxiety. Other times you might check in with a friend, partner or parent asking, “Do you think what I did was okay?” Still other times you imagine worse-case scenarios playing out and strategize how you can prevent them. But the worry comes back.

Most of us are in "survival mode," doing our best with daily stress in our life. What if you could move from the survival way of thinking – doing and reacting – to the creative way of thinking and feeling? It is possible. If we work together, I can help you gain practices and insights that strengthen your being, teaching you how to stay grounded as you navigate your life. I can assist you in noticing and connecting to your core self, building internal trust as you navigate daily stress.

You may be seeking therapy to ease the pain of depression, anxiety, trauma or loss; or because you are struggling with relationship and other interpersonal issues. Maybe something just does not “feel right,” preventing you from moving forward. Perhaps, you are challenged by existential questions and wish to explore your identity or find greater meaning in your life. What is causing you pain or holding you back may be a known challenge or problem, or an unexamined part of yourself that causes you to feel stuck. Whatever brings you here, you already possess the courage to seek help and the hope that your life can be better.

A wise doctor once wrote: "It is more important to understand the person who has a symptom than the symptom a person has." This is even more true for emotional problems than physical ones. Likewise, without understanding the context of a person's life and family, past and present -- one cannot really begin to know the person. I have worked for many years with men and women of all ages: with addictions, family and relationship issues, and the universal challenges of depression and anxiety. Certainly there are commonalities among the problems they present, but it is the uniqueness of each of my clients that leads to change.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst who provides therapy to individuals who are looking to more authentically connect with themselves and others, understand who they are, and gain a deeper understanding of their experiences. I am trained to provide a variety of therapeutic interventions. I tailor my therapeutic approach to fit the unique needs and desires of each individual client. I use an insight oriented approach to aid individuals in understanding and interrupting repetitive patterns that may be interfering or often lead us to that "stuck" feeling.

It takes courage to enter into therapy and explore the challenges that bring you to Windhorse Counseling. The sessions are your time to reflect, learn and practice skills, discuss issues, and problem solve. You may never have experienced therapy or you have tried to find a “goodness of fit” with a clinician and it hasn’t worked as you’ve hoped. I had the good fortune to hold the role of a local high school clinical social worker (now retired) for more than 30 years. It is truly special to work individually and in groups with teens, parents/caregivers and participate in their growth and development of self and skills.

I specialize in meeting the needs of creative individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, or other mental health issues. Because I am the author of ten critically acclaimed books, I also work with aspiring writers, helping them to gain publication. My work is intensely relational and always focused on real results. I believe that clients are paying for a service and that they deserve to see measurable and lasting change. Along these same lines, my treatment is often relatively brief. We identify the problem(s) and the steps to change along with a timeline for these steps. Clients become active agents in their own recoveries.

Welcome! I believe that the relationship between me and my clients is the foundation on which, together, we will help you to understand yourself better, realize the patterns that are holding you back, and make the changes that you decide are enriching for your life. A large portion of my practice focuses on work with clients who struggle with issues related to trauma, attachment, and interpersonal wounding. This has led to an extensive background in many different disorders and presentations. In addition to working with individual clients, I also work with parents, including adoptive parents.

As a clinical psychologist, I work with people to find ways to create change in their lives. Clients bring a range of concerns, from developing a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships, to adjusting to significant life events such as career change and retirement, parenting, divorce or marriage, or medical illness. While I may have access to experience and strategies that have helped others, I know it is my clients who are the experts on their own lives, and ultimately the ones who create their own change.

Currently Accepting Clients. Do you struggle with ongoing depression or anxiety? Are grief or trauma causing you confusion or exhaustion? Do you find relationships difficult? Your mental well-being sets the tone of your life; physical energy, sleep, mood and attitude suffer when life becomes overwhelming. To get back on track quickly, meeting regularly with a professional counselor can re-ignite a positive frame of mind.

Connection to ourselves by deepening self-awareness, insight, and options for change. Connection to our family members by overcoming the obstacles that cause pain and distress.

Therapy is a collaborative process in which people can make meaning of their current life situations, develop insight about the impact of past experiences, and gain clarity about intentions and goals. I bring compassion, humor, genuine curiosity, and a sense of shared humanity to help people feel more connected to themselves and to others. My areas of specialization include LGBTQ identities, life transitions, anxiety and mood issues, and relationship concerns.

Our bodies are made to move. Research shows that our bodies and our minds respond to being in Nature. What better way to heal and regulate our nervous systems than by walking in Nature? Join me in nature-based therapy where we " walk and talk" or "sit and talk" together in Nature. We walk or sit together in the open meadows or wooded trails that are near the rivers and ponds of the Concord/Acton area. Using mindfulness and guided imagery practices while embraced by Nature, I help my clients find wholeness.

You want to appear like you’ve got it all together, but deep down you are struggling to feel confident in who you are. You’re someone who is decisive in your career, but still find yourself sad and anxious, struggling with relationships, and feeling undervalued by loved ones. Each day feels like the one before it, questioning when you’ll finally break the cycle of feeling down about yourself. But you’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to restore your inner peace. You’re ready to reclaim the confidence that you used to have. Most of all, you’re ready to feel joy once again. I want to help you get there.
