Blue Cross Therapists in Woburn, MA

It is not easy to start therapy treatment. An ideal client is a person that, even through all the fears, doubts and questions, takes the first step to start treatment and gives a chance to explore a new technique to find better balance in their life. There could be setbacks in the process but the most important thing is to stay constant. The client is willing to work in their goals and implement skills learned in every session. Also, to ask questions needed, even if they feel afraid, in order to be able to communicate with their therapist in a honest way.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to explore their patterns, thoughts, and unique stories. They may be struggling with anxiety or depression or haven't fully processed traumas and attachment issues in their lifetime. This ideal client may be detached from their emotions, have a hard time letting go, or find it difficult to experience joy. This person is motivated for change and seeks more insight about themselves.

My ideal client is somebody who embraces and trusts the process and is willing to share their experiences. Challenges can range based on the support they are seeking. Their needs can be anything from support, stabilization, resources for community-based support, and building a quality supportive network. Their goals are to increase autonomy and self-advocacy with the desire to have more good days and recover to be the best version of themselves.

If I were to imagine an ideal client, it would be someone who wants to change no matter what their needs are. It would also be someone who is open to new and innovative treatment modalities. It is also beneficial to have someone who is not hindered in what they discuss. Everything is important.

My ideal client likely struggles with honest self-reflection, emotional regulation, and interpersonal conflict. They are somewhat familiar with the boundaries and perimeters of therapy.

My ideal client is an adult aged 18 or older who bravely navigates the complexities of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, PTSD, and significant life changes or transitions. The client recognizes the importance of mental health care and is committed to the therapeutic process. They understand that seeking support is a proactive step towards healing and personal development. This commitment is foundational to the therapeutic relationship, as it signifies their readiness to engage in introspection, exploration, and change.

I specialize in relationship trauma, particularly cult recovery, with adults. I work with people who are gentle souls, have been called "too sensitive" and simply find this world hard to navigate. Our society sometimes turns sensitivity & thoughtfulness into pathologies. If you're empathic and contemplative, not only is there nothing wrong with you, we need more of you!

I have been working as a psychotherapist for 16 years. I primarily saw individual clients in outpatient clinics until 2012, but I also developed an interest in working with couples since starting my private practice 13 years ago. Individual therapy still accounts for the majority of my client caseload, as I specialize in alleviating depression, anxiety, mood regulation, substance/alcohol use, and communication difficulties. I primarily use the treatment modalities of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative therapy, but establishing a therapeutic alliance is most important to start.

My practice focuses on treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Anxiety/Depression, and Substance Use. With any and all presenting concerns, I provide a warm, non-judgmental environment.

I also deeply value insight oriented discussions of past experiences and relevant interpersonal concerns. I am careful to use these methods in the context of a client centered and welcoming environment which accounts for an individual's particular needs and experiences.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in a variety of treatment settings. I received my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University in Los Angeles, but have primarily worked in the state of Massachusetts for the last 9 years. I enjoy collaborating with clients to support them as a validating and driving force toward meeting their goals. I work with clients who struggle with Depression, Substance Abuse, Anxiety, OCD, Hoarding, Life Transitions, Military and Post-Deployment, Couples, families, and Relationship issues.

Everyone has a time in their life when they need help. I have been helping people understand their difficulties and develop strategies and skills to overcome those struggles for over 15 years. As a clinical Social Worker I have worked in many different therapeutic settings aiding individuals with various problems including depression, anxiety, family and couples issues, academic difficulties, and health and wellness struggles.

Whether you're worried about your mood, relationship issues, stressful live events, or something else entirely, I can help you to identify the problems you are facing, adapt, and develop new coping skills.

I strongly believe that everyone should have a safe space where they feel accepted and supported for who they are. Human beings possess an incredible capacity for growth, and I am passionate about facilitating this journey. I believe that self-improvement is fundamental to navigating life's complexities and empowering individuals to take charge of their lives. However, it's common to encounter obstacles that hinder personal growth, and facing these challenges alone can be overwhelming. As a therapist, I prioritize building a trusting and supportive therapeutic alliance with my clients to address their unique needs.

I will always be open to your point of view, welcoming of our differences, and supportive of your needs.Your peace is my priority. We will work together to develop a clear picture of you- your feelings, behaviors, thoughts, and goals- in order to move you into a positive mindset and feeling like you are in control of your future.
