Teletherapy for Lexington, MA

I am currently accepting new clients. When you feel stuck under the weight of anxious thinking or traumatic experiences, life can feel unmanageable and your goals can fall out of reach. You might struggle with chronic stress and overthinking, frequent panic attacks, low self-confidence, existential worries, burnout, or insecurity. No one can face these issues for too long before they start feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and hopeless. These feelings are only human and therapy can often be a helpful step toward improving your mental health.

Coming from a Lead Clinician role for a Virtual Partial Hospitalization (PHP) Program, I don't believe in an "ideal" client. In my previous role, we rarely had insight into a client's clinical presentation before their intake. I have learned to tailor my approach to each client while aiding them in learning emotional regulation techniques and interventions to sustain sobriety.

The ideal client is open to receiving advice and implementing it into their daily lives. The client may have issues with substance abuse due to a lack of healthy coping skills. The client's needs are to improve the quality of work-life balance. It is also important for clients to learn healthy coping strategies to cope with anxiety, depression, and other underlying mental health disorders that are often the underlying cause of substance abuse.

My ideal client is someone who is ready for therapy and is committed to their own growth and well-being. This person is open to expressing themselves in therapy. This person may be experiencing challenges such as anxiety and depression, low self-esteem, and trauma. The goals for therapy may be developing coping skills, healing past trauma, and increasing confidence. Needs may include empathy and validation and a need for a safe environment. I am also interested in working with people with a dual diagnosis. I can help people create treatment goals, combine different therapies, and provide community resources to support recovery.

We have immediate availability at our practice, Verge Therapy, for telehealth or appointments before 2pm. Please reach out to get connected with a provider today. I am a licensed independent clinical social worker offering virtual and in-person services in Lexington, MA.

My ideal client is often a little uncomfortable internally, manifested as anxiety or depression. Often, clients I work best with have a complex childhood that can filter into current relationships. My clients often love objective data (like I do) and will measure key components of their care to understand if they are improving over time.

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerne as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.

Looking to make some changes in your life? The right therapy relationship can help you to make progress on your goals, to increase your effectiveness in relationships and work, and to find enjoyment and meaning in your life. My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and practical.

I believe in meeting clients where they are emotionally and mentally. Whether you're starting therapy for the first time, or have tried many times in the past, I want to meet you where you are and work with you to explore the next steps. Perhaps you or your child is struggling with the demands of school, work or relationships. Perhaps you and your partner feel stuck in your relationship and crave a better way to communicate with each other. Perhaps you're ready to dive in full force, or perhaps you're just questioning whether or not you want to make changes. These are just some of the issues that can be explored in therapy.

It can be challenging and scary to seek counseling and to take the first steps toward desired change. Being aware of that, Latrese is grateful and eager about the opportunity to meet people where they are and to help them get to where they want to be.

I enjoy working with people who are experiencing life transitions, changing careers, going through grief or loss, experiencing anxiety, looking for support with trauma, developing coping skills, or just seeking support with the messiness of life. I want to work with clients who are motivated to engage in self-reflection and make a commitment to creating space for themselves to work through their current patterns that are no longer serving them. I meet the person where they are at and understand what ways they would like to make changes in their life.
