Relationship Issues Therapists in Walpole, MA

Facing uncertainty about the future of your marriage? Maybe you feel lost & unsure of how to move forward. You may have even thought about divorce. Before making a drastic decision, I recommend taking a step back & exploring all the options available. It's common for couples to experience doubts & uncertainty about the future of their marriage. Pressures of daily life, combined with differences in personality and communication styles, can lead to feelings of frustration & despair. However, know that there is hope. With the right skills & guidance your marriage can be saved and even thrive.

The purpose of life is to live a joyous existence. Sometimes easier said than done. But therapy is about empowering people to do just that. Figuring out how to, for example, like yourself better; unapologetically and adeptly be the real you; engage meaningfully and effectively with others; recover from an affair or other breach of trust; navigate divorce and remarriage. What you privately think & feel about yourself; what you think and feel about your relationships, and how skillfully you operate are fundamental to quality of life. I have over 30 years experience assisting individuals and couples achieve their best lives.

You may have been emotionally, sexually, verbally, physically abused and/or neglected. You may be a survivor of Parental Alienation, another form of abuse; a child or the targeted parent. You want to be healed, not just struggling in life. You want your terrifying panic attacks that no one understands to be gone. You want to stop struggling and live the life you were meant to. You want your relationship with yourself and others to be healthier. Is the abuse/neglect you survived still affecting your life? It doesn't have to anymore. There is hope and healing. PTSD, Complex-PTSD (C-PTSD), Agoraphobia, and panic can be healed forever.

Overwhelmed by workplace challenges and family demands? Overwrought over disappointing relationships? Overextended and unable to find a way to bring balance to your life? A new perspective, new insights, can overcome some of these negative 'overs', and I believe that, as an empathic and well-trained therapist, I may well be able to help.

Working with older teens & young adults — including college students & young professionals— I help clients navigate concerns such as anxiety, depression, and life adjustments that are causing stress, low self esteem, relationship concerns, stress due to perfectionism, feeling on edge, panic attacks, social isolation, feelings of “imposter syndrome,” & more. Navigating the 20s is a difficult time for many, as this is a time of internal and external changes that occur simultaneously, whether this includes one’s exploration of both personal and professional identity, relationship satisfaction, accommodating to a new city, and more.

I feel therapy is a modality for clients to tap into their own Human resilence. I appreciate the mind-body system. Life gives us challenges. As a therapist I will work with you to find your resilent capacity in a safe and compaaionate space. I will guide you in becoming more grounded and confident in yourself.

As an experienced clinician, I find myself most compatible with individuals who seek to make positive changes in their lives. I support my clients in their efforts to confront their challenges and overcome emotional barriers. I work best with adults who feel burdened with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or relationship issues. I welcome individual clients and couples, who seek to address the conflicts in their relationships. I value the capacity to laugh and learn, and I encourage my clients to embrace these as recovery tools. Additionally, my clients must love, or at least like basset hounds, as they are my receptionists.

I am a collaborative therapist, working together with clients to promote insight, self-acceptance, and change. Exploring thoughts, feelings and experiences leads to increased awareness and understanding. As a result, problems begin to hold less power over your life. I also provide cognitive/behavioral techniques for managing challenging or overwhelming emotions, including mindfulness-based techniques. Areas of specialization include maternal mental health (pregnancy,prenatal, post-partum issues), depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and women's mental health.

Seeking the support of a clinician can be the first step in achieving freedom from troubling feelings or conflict. Engaging in a therapeutic relationship with the right clinician can create opportunity to gain insight and perspective to stay on track with identifying and pursuing your goals. There are many reasons why one seeks out counseling. Some issues may revolve around relationships, family, raising children, difficulty at work, school, substance use or any issue which causes one distress.

I appreciate the courage and strength it takes to explore and initiate the therapy process. As your therapist, I will provide a safe, confidential, and empathetic environment. We will work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Allied Behavioral Healthcare, a group psychology practice offering evidenced based treatment for children, adolescents and adults. Through training in hospitals, school settings and outpatient behavioral health clinics, I have worked extensively with adults and children with complex presentations related to early attachment, familial and relational trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and separation anxiety, ADHD and executive dysfunction, social anxiety, mood disorders, grief, loss, chronic illness and adjustment issues involving some of life's hardest circumstances.

Through years of home and community-based mental health experience, I've developed a passion for helping children, adolescents, and adults deepen their connections to others and to themselves. As a former clinician in early intervention, I've worked closely with clients facing peri- and postnatal mood and anxiety symptoms, those impacted by NICU journeys, trauma and loss, neurodiversity, complex medical conditions, new or chronic mental health symptoms, ADHD and attachment disruptions. For adults and parents, children and teens, I bring a warm, collaborative and client-centered approach to therapy.

Whether you need help overcoming a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship conflicts, and life transitions, we can work together to begin the process of healing. I have an interest in multicultural counseling and understand the importance of cultural sensitivity in therapy. I am fluent in Arabic and English, enabling me to provide counseling services to diverse populations. I take pride in offering culturally attuned therapy that respects and values each client's unique background and experiences.

Through open and client centered dialogue, I help my clients move through the challenges they are seeking support for by utilizing cognitive behavioral and narrative therapy. Development and practice of mindfulness strategies and introduction to how breath and movement can change anxious thought patterns to assist clients to transform their lives. They can feel positively connected to others and successful in achieving their defined goals.

Therapy doesn't have to be serious, it doesn't have to be formal, it just has to be about you. This is a chance to talk freely without worrying about other people's feelings or judgement. My job is to be an objective, calming, comfortable and validating presence. I am honored to hold this space for you.

For the past 25 years, I have enjoyed working in private practice and consider myself to be collaborative, respectful, and solution-focused while also maintaining a sense of humor. I would be happy to talk with you about my background, your goals, and how we can best address your concerns.

My style is warm and casual, creating a dialogue that results in mutual insight and understanding. I like to use humor while providing an inviting environment to explore the problems and succeqsses of your life. My approach is based in the Psychodynamic, Person-centered and Relational traditions in therapy but I also focus on helping people build skills to navigate the issues we experience in life through Cognitive Behavioral interventions.

By using EMDR and mindfulness techniques, I understand and can help with the range of ways our bodies and minds react to difficult and distressing life events. This approach helps clients gently process their difficult experiences and build up resilience, hope and healing.
