Female Therapists in Millbury, MA

I believe successful psychotherapy relies on a unique relationship between a client and a therapist that is jointly created; together we discover and nurture the client's needs. I provide insight-oriented therapy with the belief that you, the client, are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance and understanding of your journey. I believe in authenticity in the therapeutic relationship, where I create a safe, warm and empathetic environment for exploration of past and present emotional struggles and psychological blockages to lead you toward your own healing and personal growth.

Do you ever feel a tug-of-war inside, with different parts of you pulling in various directions? This inner dialogue can be confusing, but a completely natural part of being human. We all have different parts of ourselves, some carrying difficult emotions like shame or anger, while others step in to protect us from those feelings. Therapy is not about fixing something “wrong” with you. Often, our emotional reactions or behaviors are understandable responses to past experiences. What might have once been self-protective or even life-saving can become challenging when our circumstances change, yet the feelings or behaviors linger.

Perhaps you are an incredibly caring person who puts other people’s needs first. You enjoy giving your time and energy towards making others feel happy, and perhaps you’ve been playing on the sidelines in your own life. But, you secretly fear you won’t get love or respect back if you did not do so. So perhaps, you keep doing and giving and playing quietly. Truth is, this depletes you and leaves you not living the life you were truly meant to live. As head of household or business, you feel tired, stressed and perhaps not as happy as you’d like to be. And, you’ve neglected your own needs in mind, body and spirit for some time now.

I believe it takes a village to raise a family, work, get a higher education; but for some of us, we don't have a village. We don't have support from the people in our lives that should be there to support us when we need it. This lack of support can make us feel isolated, misunderstood, stuck; and for those of us suffering from additional stressors such as mental health concerns, anxiety, depression, lack of work, grief, chronic illness, relationship problems, it can feel very lonely.
