Narrative Therapists in Mashpee, MA

Is it possible to have a really good, satisfying relationship? I believe it is. Having a partnership that is growing, nurturing and fulfilling is not only possible - it is a skill that can be learned. As a Couple and Family Therapist, I have the latest training in relationship systems with an inclusive lens covering all types of relationships. Along with this evidence-based theory I bring a lifetime of psychological study and practice tested over time in my own partnership relationship. We never fight. Good communication skills and clear boundaries serve us well. Helping others find joy in their relationships is my highest calling.

I have been a human being for 64 years, a practicing psychotherapist for 22. I invite you to stand shoulder to shoulder with me in our journey to ease your suffering and achieve your goals. Therapy offers many possibilities- seeing old problems in a new and open way, being more alive in the world, celebrating the possibility of wonder, or learning more effective strategies for relating. This means exploring and addressing various kinds of dilemmas and pain. It may simply mean support with your creative process, or more commonly, with the feeling that you are “stuck”.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I enjoy helping my clients develop coping skills, improve overall well-being, and resolve personal challenges using evidence based and client centered treatment methods. With 25 years of extensive experience working in inpatient and outpatient settings, community mental health centers, local public schools, and a busy private practice, I enjoy supporting individuals achieve their personal and treatment goals.

I counsel my clients through various life transitions, grief & loss, relationship struggles, career challenges, medical issues, family conflicts, depression, anxiety and other psychological/social/emotional difficulties. I promote overall well-being and personal growth with a holistic approach. I ensure that our sessions are centered around client goals and I approach therapy with a focus on strengths, and work together towards achieving positive outcomes. I am experienced in counseling diverse populations and I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment where individuals can freely express themselves.

About Louisa Gould, LICSW: People seem to find me when they are supposed to in life. Clients who come to see me, often feel as though they need support with something in life. Mainly I find that most of us experience some sort of interruption in our lives. These interruptions can be addictions, losses, toxic relationships, difficult decisions, traumatic situations or can take many other shapes and forms throughout life. It is my belief that it is through these interruptions, that people often seek counseling and support. No one should have to travel through life alone.

We understand that our clients come to us with a variety of experiences, skills, and strengths, and we work with you to cultivate your innate resources and develop new skills to help you find sustainable solutions for the issues you are facing.

Our licensed, trained, and certified clinicians have been trained at the highest levels possible to work with the specific needs you and your loved ones face.

Life is full of change. Whether the change is expected or not, we can feel lost, overwhelmed, a sense of hopelessness, or fear from the transition. You do not have to navigate these emotions alone. Therapy can be a safe space to explore your thoughts and to work through situations that may be holding you back, or causing negative experiences.

Psychotherapy is a deeply personal journey, often filled with intricate and conflicting emotions. At the heart of its effectiveness is creating a safe, respectful, and supportive therapeutic environment, which is essential for fostering self-awareness and growth. My practice is dedicated to facilitating this process, helping individuals enrich their interpersonal relationships and promote personal development. With a foundation in psychoanalytic and psychodynamic theories, and a commitment to supporting strengths based principles, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each person.

I am currently offering supervision for clinicians. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor my work has largely revolved around trauma recovery and I am very passionate about working with transitional age youth, families, and couples, as well as the LGBTQIA+ community. I have been working with adolescents, families, and adults for over 10 years in a multitude of settings. I have experience working with the foster care system, substance abuse, and LGBTQIA+ organizations as well as in high schools as a school-based counselor, integrated healthcare and as a clinical director and supervisor.

Our group practice has a variety of clinicians who have an extensive history working with a wide variety of presenting problems, including mood and adjustment disorders, trauma, and family and relational issues. We will work with you to find creative and plausible solutions to the problems you are facing. We believe wellness is achievable, manageable, and sustainable for all clients.

Hi! I'm Heidi, Founder of Heidi Hulbig Mind Body Therapy, a private practice specializing in therapeutic experiences for women. Our mission is to help women learn how to align their mental, emotional, and lived experiences in order to live more fully. In doing so, our clients learn how to use their natural strengths and resources, adopt new perspectives, and make lifestyle choices to support emotional regulation and healing. We aim to empower our clients to believe they are the experts of their lives who are capable of taking care of themselves in meaningful ways.

I have found that when someone is truly heard and understood that an internal shift occurs. This shift allows for greater flexibility, coping, and decision making. I work with people to clarify what they want, the options available to them, and the course of action that works best for them. This may mean working with thoughts, feelings, and/or behaviors that inhibit the desired changes or learning new skills and attitudes that promote bringing about these changes. I work to support the inherent human capacity for adaptability which becomes worn down by daily stressors and/or stressful life events.

Life feels like it's spinning uncontrollably; where every task is overwhelming. Even if you're able to go to work and be productive, this feeling inside doesn't stop. The thoughts keep coming, you get stomach aches, head aches, you have trouble sleeping. You've tried everything. Drinking too much or abusing other substances becomes a coping method. There's no way things can change. Often, adults and teens feel this way and it can be scary and frustrating. If your a parent, it can be agonizing to watch your teen go through this. Feeling helpless and alone. I so often hear, "I know I need something different, but what?"

Each of us experiences challenging periods in our lives; periods of loss, transition or confusion during which we are in need of support, guidance and validation. If you are searching for a therapist today, it's likely you find yourself challenged in one or more of these ways and are taking the courageous first step to find the help you need. My role as your therapist is to offer non-judgmental support and help you develop insight, clarity and improved mental health. In our work together I will draw from therapeutic strategies including mindfulness, CBT, talk therapy and psycho education.

Welcome and congratulations on finding the strength to engage in a partnership that will allow you to experience life in a more meaningful manner. Through counseling, you will sense positive changes and develop skills that lead to greater insight and foster healing. In this safe, trusting, non-judgmental atmosphere, we will build a strong therapeutic and supportive relationship that allows you work toward your goals.
