Teletherapy for Reading, MA
You’re good at so many things, but you struggle in relationships, with confidence in who you are, or managing grief. Therapy will help you tap into your natural ability for deep connection, inner strength, and healing. Perhaps in Relationships- you struggle with communication, boundaries, or you keep getting stuck in the same patterns? In Identity- you know your worth, but have trouble with your self-esteem? In Grief- you get overwhelmed, and don’t know where to start to feel better? You're ready to master relationships, heal, and be unapologetically yourself.

There are many reasons to speak with a psychologist. Do you feel very stressed out? Do you feel like you are losing control, or falling apart? Are you very hard on yourself? Do you get carried away with anger? Do you lack meaning or direction in your life? Do you avoid doing more and more out of fear? Loneliness, worthlessness, dread, helplessness, grief, self-doubt, and hopelessness: These are some of the difficult internal experiences that people may suffer and struggle against. They may overwhelm and negatively impact all parts of life, including relationships with family, friends, or employers, and undermine personal goals.

I believe each individual is the expert of themselves and their story and that they have done the best with what they have been given. Everyone needs support at different times in their lives, and can especially benefit from sharing with someone who is objective. I actively listen without judgment and provide empathy, potential tools, ongoing support, and, when appropriate, humor (both good and bad jokes). I align myself with my clients while identifying changes that they could make to reach their goals.

Waitlist for new clients
I am a marriage and family therapist who works with individuals, couples and families from a narrative perspective. I believe clients have rich stories to tell about who they are and wish to be, what values they hold, and how to move through their lives in preferred ways. However, sometimes problems get in their way. I believe clients are the experts of their lives and I see people as separate from these problems. I practice from a collaborative, strength-based perspective which is client-centered.

Online Therapists
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
