Trauma Focused Therapists in Northborough, MA

I'm passionate about working with people who are finding life to be overwhelming and exhausting. Maybe you're heartbroken over loss, burdened with guilt, feeling you'll never be good enough, are scared, or at wits' end. Or maybe something happened to you, and it sticks with you giving you no rest. When we feel this way, we tend to isolate, berate ourselves, and spiral in our thinking or distract ourselves from these debilitating feelings. You're not alone. These feelings and responses are common, and there are evidence-based treatments to help you take the helm and steer your own ship in life.

It is hard to make an appointment with a therapist - to realize that there are aspects of your life that just "aren't working". My goal is to offer a safe supportive space where you feel heard and understood. I work with people who are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, and anger: people who are dealing with difficult relationships; people who want to learn better communication skills; people who are struggling to cope with trauma and stressful life events; and people who don't really know what they feel or need but just want to feel better.

I love working with and helping people to live happier lives. In my years of experience working in the counseling field, I have assisted many people who struggle to function in their daily lives either because of a new hurdle or a life-long, mental health condition. Sometimes a person may feel hopeless, stuck, or unable to identify what holds them back. Other times, the client is in a new area of life that is unfamiliar or seems too intimidating to navigate. I strive to offer a compassionate, introspective, and collaborative setting where clients can feel free to explore the barriers that keep them from living their best lives.

I believe that everyone is capable of helping themselves. Its about making small changes or a change in perspective that can have a big impact on your life. I am here to help guide you. I specialize in working with young adults who have experienced trauma. Trauma has a way of affecting every aspect of a person's life until it has taken over. I specialize in helping you take back that control.

Besides being personally transformed by the healing touch of mindfulness, yoga, meditation and other modalities related to the integrative and holistic approach, I enjoy helping others to appreciate the transformational touch of modalities focusing on the mind-body connection. In my practice, I combine techniques, such as mindfulness, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, meditation, yoga, somatic therapy, psychoanalysis, and, (in the near future) hypnotherapy, in order to determine which combination will best meet my client’s needs.

It's ok to ask for help. It's true that I can't erase your past or instantly take away your pain (although I wish I could). However, I can help you carry your burdens more lightly, whether that means adjusting to major life transitions, processing grief, or learning new ways of coping with anxiety. Additionally, I have expertise in health-related issues and enjoy working with clients around eating concerns, chronic illness (cancer, diabetes, etc.) and prenatal/postpartum mental health. I can offer you a new perspective and help you overcome emotional challenges. Therapy is your time to feel supported and understood.

Hello! I use a holistic approach with the type of therapies that I use; combining features from DBT, CBT, trauma informed therapies and motivational interviewing. Most of my work has been related to people who are experiencing depression and anxiety that may be lifelong or situational. I work with adults and elders but have experience working with younger clients as well. My passion is helping people manage the challenges of loved ones who are going through life transitions related to long-term illness or end of life stages.

I am a clinical psychologist practicing for more than two decades. My approach is to provide a safe and comfortable space in which clients can share their worries, concerns, and fears that are part of daily living. I use cognitive-behavioral treatment, which emphasizes the importance of how we understand events, ourselves, and others; these affect our feelings and the way we go about our daily lives. The goal is to improve insight AND making changes to improve our quality of life. Many of my clients struggle with adjusting to difficult situations, and want to move forward from difficult situations that affect day-to-day life.
