Grief Therapists in Winthrop, MA
My experience thus far has been with adults who are struggling with addiction, anxiety and depression, stress management, relationship difficulties, grief and trauma.
I am accepting new clients. My therapeutic approach focuses on helping clients achieve insight and increase their motivation. My goal is to help clients learn to stop avoiding, denying and struggling with their inner emotions, learn to accept that these deeper feelings are appropriate responses to certain situations that should not prevent them from moving forward in their lives. With this understanding, clients can begin to accept hardships and commit to making necessary changes in their behavior.

Previously, I worked with adults and helped them with their emotional pain, unresolved trauma, fear, anxiety, confusion, grief, stress, inner criticism, self worth ect.
Therapy may be the hardest work you have to do. Think of your therapist as your personal trainer. They will give you guidance, encouragement and support, but you need to do the hard work. Happiness looks different for everyone. My goal is to help you discover what makes you happy and Find Yourself.

Entering this field a bit later in life, it was not without gaining, and continuing to gain, multiple perspectives associated with trials stemming from family of origin, marital, trauma, secondary trauma, relationship, parenting-to raise/parenting-to-prepare, job-related, adoption/reunification, loss, life transition and elder care issues. I know life's journey to be replete with challenges. I also know it to be rich, adventurous, rewarding. I've learned obstacles are more easily negotiated with support and that becoming our own agent of change is not as elusive as it may often seem.

Perhaps you are experiencing loss, loneliness, or anxiety, or maybe you don't feel like 'yourself' anymore. I believe that empowerment and healing can come through self-connection, use of more adaptive and efficient tools and knowledge that I will have your back until you're ready to have your own. I show up for you authentically and drawing from my over twenty years of working with individuals of all ages. During our time together, I hope to provide a space for you to revive your joy, feel whole versus disjointed, and seek to create a balance between challenge and kindness for yourself.

How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
