Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Shrewsbury, MA

Hi! I'm Keri. I enjoy working with Pre-Teens, Teens, Adolescents, and Adults. I provide individual psychotherapy for issues related to ADHD, Anger Management, Anxiety/OCD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Bipolar Disorder, Body Image/Body Positivity, Maternal Mental Health (PPA/PPD), Relational Conflict, and life transitions. If you've been trying to gain as much control over your life as possible due to other chronic mental illness, I am here for you!

You might be feeling down on yourself right now or frustrated with your current situation. It might be a struggle to make it through the day at school or work, interact with family and friends, or manage daily activities. Are you upset and irritable because you can’t seem to cope like you did before? Have things been feeling pretty bad for a while, despite everything you’ve tried? Reaching out for support and an objective perspective is a smart and brave move when things are not going well. I’d love to discuss how we can work together on coping skills, finding solutions, and fostering lasting changes in your life and relationships.

Accepting new clients this summer! Finding a therapist can be a challenging process and making it this far is a great first step. Are you a female who is feeling overwhelmed with symptoms of anxiety or depression? Searching for support and interested in learning new coping skills? I am a licensed skill based therapist eager to work with you! My typical clients have experienced major life changes such as college, career, parenting, marriage, divorce and grief. As well as woman who are unable to cope with day to day stress as easily as they used to, or might have past experiences that are interfering with present day quality of life.

You're a gifted, dynamic, busy woman exhausted by life's competing demands. You put pressure on yourself to "do it all." You smile and take on the day, avoiding your emotional pain by staying busy. You have parenting, caregiving, relationship, or life transition issues that are being ignored, leading to anxiety, depression, medical issues, low motivation, and lack of fulfillment. Your past and current traumas are impacting your sleep and daily functioning. You've realized you need help, and you feel bad about that too. After all, you SHOULD be able to handle it all and keep smiling!

I am a bilingual (Spanish-English) Clinical Psychologist that specializes in the impact of medical conditions (diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, chronic pain, endocrine problems, STD's, cancer, liver transplant, kidney transplant, among others) in the psychological, social and emotional wellbeing of the patients and families. I also specialize in depression, anxiety, adjustment process, life stressors, grief and loss, and smoking cessation.

When painful things happen in our lives, we do our best to cope with it in the moment. That might mean we get really good at “just dealing with it,” and “toughing it out.” Maybe we get really good at “checking out,” or maybe we become super skilled at coming up with clever ways to altogether avoid triggering situations. At one point in time, these skills served you well. And maybe they don’t any longer. Often, underneath these patterns anxiety and depression flood every day, drowning out our resources and making life difficult to enjoy. But changing these patterns and finding new hope can seem like an impossible feat.

I help people overcome many different psychological challenges, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, substance abuse, relationship issues and many more (please see my website). By bridging two different careers myself for the past 24 years, I am able to work with people, not only around major mental health issues, but in career changing and strategic life planning. I am also qualified to work with professionals and executives who want to excel or redirect their careers. As an experienced divorce coach and educator, I help adolescents handle the impact divorcing parents have on their lives.

If you are struggling with feeling anxious, depressed, angry, or stressed, it may be causing you to have difficulties in your daily life activities or relationships. I am happy to help assist you in learning to identify and better understand and cope with your thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and life stressors in order to improve your overall mental health, daily functioning, your relationships, and your satisfaction and quality of life!

Many clients who I meet with for the first time confess how scared they were to make the initial phone call and to set up an appointment. Usually after the first appointment they say they are glad they did. In today's culture, there are so many stressors and demands of everyday life that we often wind up taking care of others and sometimes find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious and stuck. I have watched change and relief take place as clients meet with me over time and together we gain understanding and awareness of how to move forward.
