Therapists in Framingham, MA
I don't believe therapy should be a practitioner in a chair while a client sits on a couch and talks about their problems. I am focused on coaching you to live your best life. I am looking to get off our seats and move. The goal should not just be to lessen suffering, but to increase happiness. My office is a movement studio, when you walk in you will see punching bags, a squat rack, jump ropes and lots of space, all situated on a 2 acre working micro farm. If you have not had good success with therapy in the past or you feel it's just not for you. Try this movement based, emo-decolonizing approach to mental wellness.

I offer my clients a non-judgemental space to be heard and sort through their feelings. I aid my clients in building self-compassion and tools for feeling better about themselves. Whether you struggle with your relationship with food, body, or sense of self, I believe it is possible to heal. My clients tend to hold themselves to high standards, spend much of their energy caring for others, and have a hard time putting themselves first. I believe therapy is an avenue for realigning your priorities and understanding how your personal history has informed how you feel today.

Do you hate being touched by your partner? Do you feel misunderstood and now you are worried that your partner is starting to resent you?

Our broad goal––of course––is “the end of unnecessary suffering.” Sound about right? While we all strive for this, I specialize in helping folks with a very-unique kind of suffering: OCD. I can tell you that few people understand the pain and complexity of OCD—(even most therapists). I will listen intently to your unique story. Just know that I can introduce you to an arsenal of tools that can help: mindfulness, ERP (exposure and response prevention) and on and on. Yes, thoughts can be “sticky.” But––with hard work––if (or when) those thoughts come back around…they can be as quiet & as harmless as a yellow post-it.
