Adults Therapists in Lincoln, MA

I have several decades of experience providing therapy to people from many walks of life. My overall goal is to provide you with the opportunity to be heard, so that you can move forward with more joy and less pain. You may feel fragmented and want to heal, or out of sorts and want to sort it out. Perhaps you want to achieve a sense of wellness and well-being. It is my honor to build trust at your pace, so that we can walk together in partnership on this journey. We will work to allow your strengths, your sorrows and your joys to build toward inner wholeness with courage, self compassion and clarity.

I work with individuals, couples, and families to address concerns with relationships, identity, intimacy and sexuality, and spirituality, in addition to general psychological problems. My approach to therapy is active, relational, and result-oriented, encouraging clients take hold of their life and find the meaning that life holds for them. I have served as an instructor at Harvard Medical School and Psychologist at the Cambridge Health Alliance for more than 25 years. And have been serving on the Advisory Board of the Dr. Phil Show, since its inception. (See drchirban.com and swampscottpsychologicalassociates.com)

Searching for a therapist is a very vulnerable and brave process. I want to thank you for coming to read more about how I might be able to help you. I would love to be a part of your healing journey whether that includes overcoming anxiety, navigating challenges of infertility, pregnancy, or the fourth trimester postpartum. In our work together we’ll delve into what past life events led to your current beliefs and feelings. In doing so we can work on changing the narrative that has become an unhelpful part of your thought process. Email me to learn more about if we would be a good fit!

I am experienced at helping individuals and couples,ages 17 to older adults, who are dissatisfied with or want to improve relationships, work, and/or family life (all may have been complicated by the pandemic). My approach is collaborative, warm and respectful. Anxiety, depression, couple issues (planning marriage, couple conflict, poor communication, infidelity, separation/divorce), infertility, your own or a loved one’s medical illness or disability, impaired family members, parenting, life transitions or self-defeating patterns call for an ally to help you find your strengths and move forward.

When searching for a therapist, either for yourself or for your child, the process can be confusing and frustrating. Finding the right person may be challenging, but it will be worth the effort to find someone you are comfortable with. Ideally therapy will allow you to tell your story and get to the heart of the problems you have been facing. You will be able to build on the knowledge and strengths you already have and ultimately gain the perspective to move through your challenges.

I am a licensed clinical social worker providing psychotherapy to individuals, families, couples, and groups. My approach is collaborative, warm, and compassionate and includes a blended approach of therapeutic modalities including Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Mindfulness Based Strategies, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS). The foundation of my work is grounded in the belief that people feel better and are able to heal in the context of a safe and trusting relationship.
