Women's Issues Therapists in Natick, MA

I believe in a culturally aware, strengths-focused approach to psychotherapy, and work to help each client learn the skills they need to overcome whatever they may be facing.

Welcome. It takes courage to start therapy. As you enter this process of exploring yourself, I can offer expert guidance to help you untangle the messiness of life and move forward with greater authenticity and fulfillment. My approach to therapy focuses on building a trusting and interactive relationship that offers a safe place to explore and uncover truths with clarity. I offer empathy, curiosity, humor and accountability to foster collaboration and hope. I deeply believe in one's resiliency and my goal is always to help my clients more clearly see their innate strengths as the building blocks for change.

Do you find you get overwhelmed by your emotions? Weighed down by self critical thoughts? Feel inferior to others? Find yourself taking care of others while sacrificing your own needs? Get caught up in unhealthy patterns that are rooted from the past?

I work compassionately with generally high-functioning adults who may be experiencing a range of potential symptoms that diminish their mental and/or physical health and well-being. These may include anxiety, perfectionism, and performance challenges; self-esteem and self-worth; overweight and disordered eating; managing chronic disease; grief and loss; depression; relationship challenges with friends, partners, and family members; and life and career transitions that may include finding meaning in life. I often work with people who simply find life is easier when they have a non-judgmental connection outside of their usual circles.

Have you been conditioned to be quiet, to second-guess yourself, to feel hopeless, disempowered, or powerless? If you identify as a female, you've landed on the right profile for beginning your journey towards empowerment, healing, growth, and unveiling your true authentic self. Whether you are trying to conceive, endured a pregnancy loss, stillbirth or termination, have one or ten children, are a step-mother, going through fertility treatments, are a single mother, adopting, or not driving down this road at all and do not relate to childbearing, I would be honored to work with you. Empowering women is a hallmark in my practice.

Life, a canvas of hues beyond black and white, navigates the challenge of gray areas for an immigrant like me. In this complex journey, adapting to a new environment and managing personal and professional challenges is a constant juggling act. Distance from loved ones and cultural differences add layers, challenging the handling of mounting pressures. Whether a traveling student, in an international marriage, an elderly person relocating overseas with adult children, or a parent sending children back for upbringing, unique struggles arise from the intricate complexities in a foreign land.

Have you found yourself feeling like you just can't find your place, voice, or make space for yourself despite working hard? Have comments and micro aggressions left you feeling like you are at a loss for your next steps? Building a space where your unique identity is centered and prioritized is where our work begins. Dr. Floyd's work is primarily with people who want to reduce their depression or anxiety, improve relationships with family or peers, process racial and sexual trauma, and find more authentic ways to express their identity.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist dedicated to providing compassionate, effective services for children, teens, parents, families, and adults. Every client is unique, bringing distinct strengths and vulnerabilities, a singular set of life experiences, and individual perspectives and goals. Using a flexible, creative approach to therapy and assessment, I offer tailored support designed to be responsive to each client's needs. I bring clinical experience from a wide range of settings (outpatient clinics, therapeutic/residential schools, inpatient/hospital facilities) and an extensive background as an educator/administrator in elementary and middle schools to my practice.

Women face unique challenges throughout their lifetimes. Counseling and coaching are supportive tools that help us navigate ups and downs, meet personal goals, and understand ourselves more profoundly and meaningfully. Even when our outer worlds are seemingly at peace, many women struggle with past pain and trauma, unhealthy relationship patterns, prioritizing actual self-care, meaningful friendships, and health and wellness goals.

I work with children, adults and parents. When working with adults, I take an integrative approach where I combine several traditional mental health therapies with energy psychology, somatic healing, oracle cards and Reiki. I work with adults around sadness, stress, trauma and healing old wounds. I help adults discover where their patterns and blocks come from and help them shift and heal so they can live a happier, more authentic life. The integration of the energy psychology, mind body approaches and Reiki moves the needle so much more than talk therapy alone. I consider myself spiritually friendly and welcome all.

I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated for change but who might not know how to take the first steps. As an interactive therapist, I see myself as a facilitator in your therapy as you work toward improving aspects of your life that you feel no longer work for you. Trained as a relational psychologist, I emphasize the importance of early relationships and how they impact one's daily functioning. I value the importance of the here and now as well as the future while helping individuals realize their maximum potential for happiness.
