Therapists in Easthampton, MA

We all need support in dealing with life's challenges but sometimes just asking for help can feel overwhelming. Finding the right therapist can be a daunting task: Whom can I trust? Will I be understood? Will I feel safe and respected? I understand these concerns. I work to create a warm, compassionate therapeutic environment. My clients tell me that they appreciate my down-to earth presence; my sense of humor, and my gentle yet honest feedback. My work blends psycho-dynamic, cognitive behavioral, internal family systems, and relational-cultural theories in ways that are specific to your unique goals.

Through our work together, I want all of my clients to know two things; one is that they have value that cannot be taken away by anything or anyone and the other is that they do not have to struggle with mental health issues alone. Therapy is the place where you can be authentic and honest about struggles and can feel validated and heard rather than judged or dismissed.

Are you looking for an open-minded, non-judgmental therapist to help you address problems, build confidence, and get to know yourself? Are you struggling with life, relationships, creative pursuits, or coming to terms with your past? Seeking therapy requires courage, and it is with respect, curiosity and dedication that I approach this work.

I provide psychotherapy and psychoanalysis to adults in a thoughtful, warm, compassionate atmosphere. I treat a spectrum of issues ranging from the commonly practical to the loftily complex, including trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, grief, loss, sexuality, gender, LGBTQ, family, relationships, marriage, professional, identity, existential and spiritual confusion. My therapeutic approach is rooted in psychoanalytic and contemplative theories of human development, function, and dysfunction. I am dedicated to helping my clients grow through their issues in a safe, comfortable, confidential space.

I specialize in using mindfulness, meditation, movement, nutrition, supplementation, and holistic modalities. I enjoy working with people seeking to make a change in their health and discover their inner-potential. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, elderly, couples and families.

I am a licensed clinician in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and I am a Registered Dance/Movement Therapist. I have a person-centered and holistic approach. I enjoy blending traditional talk therapy, expressive arts, and movement therapy in my counseling sessions. Typically I begin therapy with traditional talk therapy and then at that point I am open to using any particular style depending on your preferred way of processing. Typically my clients are people who feel overwhelmed, have recent loss, need help improving self-esteem, need help improving relationships, and want realistic coping skills in their life.

If you want to improve your relationship while addressing what's been avoided in the past, I think we could be a good fit. For couples in crisis, we could discuss Discernment Counseling or an Intensive as a way to address concerns immediately.

The best way to support healing and transformation is to combine a mind-body approach with psychotherapy. I include expressive therapies, relaxation training and mind-body awareness in my practice. This is suited to clients of all ages with anxieties, stress, blocked emotions and body image problems. I also offer dance movement therapy separately for therapy, training and presentations.

I specialize in guiding high-achieving couples and families through transformative journeys, navigating from the anxiety, fear, and stress of insecurity to the deep sense of safety in relationship, relaxed in intimacy and empowered with the skills to resolve difficulties.
