Lesbian Therapists in Dedham, MA
I’m a licensed mental health clinician with current daytime openings. I see adults experiencing major life transitions, struggling through difficult periods, or working to break old patterns. I work with children experiencing anxiety, impulsivity, or friendships and I work with parents to help them support their child and adapt their parenting to meet their child's needs. I am LGBTQ+-affirming, direct, caring, and insightful, and I love to use humor in my approach.

Are you feeling completely drained - physically or emotionally? Maybe you can’t even remember the last time you felt well rested and stress-free. Living with stress, anxiety, fertility struggles, postpartum changes, cancer, or insomnia is hard enough but doing it while trying to manage all your other responsibilities can be draining. You may sometimes find yourself worrying about things you never used to even think about. The sadness you feel at times can make it hard to imagine reading a book, going out with friends, cooking a healthy meal, working out, sitting through another school play, or telling your partner about your day.

Change and life transitions can be difficult and scary. You don't have to go through them alone. COVID has affected everyone and their emotions. We have all been challenged to live our lives differently. Are there more family members living at home? Has your job changed? Are your children learning virtually now? Do you have a family member in hospital or nursing home that you can't visit as often as you would like? You may find yourself anxious or depressed. Your self esteem may be wavering. You may feel lonely. You don't have to be alone with any of this. I can help.

Entering into therapy can feel overwhelming and vulnerable. My initial goals are always to understand what brings you into therapy, give you a sense of how I practice, and talk together about whether I am a good fit for you. I encourage an ongoing and open conversation about our treatment relationship and progress towards your goals. I practice from the fundamental belief that healing can occur in an attuned, compassionate relationship marked by curiosity. Clients describe me as interactive, collaborative, warm, and nonjudgemental.

Life is not about IF we will face difficult times, it's about preparing for WHEN and getting through the now. I enjoy working with adults and children who struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, cultural demands, grief/loss, and complex life transitions (including serious illness such as cancer, etc.). I want to help you discover meaning and hope through our intentional work together. Additionally, I am LGBTQ+ affirming.

Do you "overthink"? Are you constantly criticizing yourself? Are you often fearing the worst-case scenario? Do you find it difficult to get through the day without worry, stress, or even panic? Do you feel like you're not good enough? Do you struggle with your emotions? Do you often feel overwhelmed? Do you have poor frustration tolerance? Are you having trouble with a life transition, such as a new job, or stress in your relationship? Do you sometimes feel like giving up? It’s often difficult to imagine things changing. However, change IS possible!

You want to feel better and do better in your life, and now, perhaps more than ever, you need someone – someone REALLY helpful – “in your corner” to help you turn things around.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Are you or your teen having difficulty? Are they exhibiting behaviors that have been concerning you? Stress and sadness are feelings each one of us has experienced at one time or another. It's when these feelings begin to impact our lives, that we need to seek out assistance. When you or your teen are struggling, school/work, social life and relationships suffer. Routine tasks and activities feel exhausting. Unhealthy behaviors emerge as a way of coping with the pain. It's vital that you find someone with whom you feel comfortable talking.

You've been through a tough time, and your path is unclear. The way you used to be and how you saw the world has changed, leaving you feeling lost, angry, and scared. Maybe your marriage is on the rocks, parenting is more challenging than ever, or you're trying to co-parent after a divorce. Perhaps a scary medical diagnosis hit you, or you've lost someone or something dear to you. Whether it blindsided you or you saw it coming, the pain is real. You might feel alone, not knowing how to pick up the pieces. Your friends and family care, but they're not always sure how to help. You need someone who gets it! Hi and a warm welcome!

I approach counseling and therapy as a collaborative, healing relationship. I am genuine, funny and thoughtful. My speciality includes parental mental health and perinatal mood disorders, traumatic birth, loss, and fertility complications. Often the path to parenting the way you would like to is blocked by struggles to conceive, loss, emotional complications, perinatal anxiety or depression, or having a traumatic or different birth then you envisioned. I will work with you to find the compassion for yourself that you need to create the life you want to have.
