LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapists in Newton Centre, MA

Currently accepting new clients. I hope to foster an environment that facilitates growth and healing for clients and their loved ones. Together, we create a trusting relationship to spark self-discovery and enduring change for clients of all identities, bodies, and abilities. I tailor my psychotherapeutic approach to each person as an individual. Together, my clients and I create the opportunity to learn about themselves and their interpersonal world in a safe environment by incorporating evidence-based and trauma-informed interventions (e.g. ARC, CBT, motivational interviewing, DBT, expressive arts, family systems, etc.)

When you enter therapy there is a sense of possibility. Finding a good match with a therapist is essential. Work on relationship is at the heart of therapy: relationship to oneself, to the past, to others, and to ultimate concerns and values.

Accepting new patients - Sometimes you make impulsive decisions because of worry or self-esteem. It is hard to concentrate and this is holding you back. You want to work with a goal-oriented nonjudgmental professional who will guide you to a place where you feel confident and in control. Mental health is more than low self-esteem. It impacts all areas of your life including focus, sleep, relationships, athletic performance, and even chronic pain or health conditions.

Are you struggling to manage your emotional health? Is it difficult to find balance and consistency in your daily life? If you are looking to work with a licensed therapist to manage stress, address psychiatric symptoms, discover yourself, and/or improve your relationships, I look forward to supporting you throughout your process. My approach to treatment incorporates several evidenced-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and goal setting, to promote the success and healing you deserve.

I believe clients come to therapy looking for for someone who they can feel comfortable exploring their feelings with in a safe, caring, non judgmental space.It is very important to me that I create a place where my clients feel heard, understood and respected during our work together. I believe helping people live a life of greater authenticity is an important part of the therapeutic process. Using a strength based approach, our initial sessions would include creating goals for our work together.I work with both teens and adults who are dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions ,adoption issues and trauma.
