Therapists Beginning With A in Massachusetts

Calm in the middle of the storm; strength to overcome any obstacle; courage, resilience and determination - these are qualities I seek to cultivate in my clients. My goal is to not only offer my clients relief from disturbing emotional and cognitive symptoms but to support them in manifesting their highest potential. My clinical work has been described as "effective," "holistic", "multi-modal," "results oriented," blending the science of Western Psychology with the intuition of the Eastern spiritual traditions. I focus on root cause for powerful healing. Hardworking clients committed to their growth flourish in my care.

In a world where mental health is gaining recognition for its importance, having a compassionate and dedicated therapist can make all the difference. I strive to embody these qualities, bringing a unique blend of empathy, expertise, and a non-judgmental approach to my practice. My therapeutic philosophy centers around empathy and understanding. Together, we will create a safe and supportive environment where you feel empowered to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. My diverse experience enables me to handle complex issues with sensitivity and insight, while tailoring treatment to your individual needs.

Dear My Ideal Client, You are a student of the spiritual psychology known as A Course in Miracles, or are "miracle-curious", metaphysically oriented, spiritual but not religious. I'm guessing you feel stuck in some aspect of your life, unable to move forward? Maybe frustrated by some (or all) of your relationships, or desire to make a change but are afraid to do so? Or you are in conflict, wanting others to behave differently. Or you have a life purpose that is not being fulfilled. Or you can’t say no. Whatever it is, you're here because you are willing to take ownership of all of it.

There can be many reasons to consider beginning therapy. We seem to live in a time of increased isolation and alienation, dissatisfaction and unrest. Talk therapy provides a unique space for connection, reflection, and understanding. It can help with overcoming internal and external obstacles, leading to a higher quality of life and relationships. I have experience working with people who have depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, fears, and a range of mental health challenges. By gaining a deeper understanding of your issues and yourself, we can find relief and a way forward.

There are times in our life where we reach a point when we realize something may not be manageable anymore or has gotten bigger than we expected but you are here and you are taking the steps to implement change. Coming into a therapy session provides a safe space to explore this and challenge yourself to identify what is going on and how we can work together to accomplish that. We serve clients 16 years old and up.

I specialize in guiding clients either through life and career transitions, or when they're just feeling stuck. Whether you're navigating a shift in your current personal or professional path, or craving a more purposeful direction, our collaborative journey aims to bring clarity, resilience, and transformative strategies to your life. I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from New York University, Business from George Washington University and I am clinically certified in Holistic Health and Nutrition from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.

I specialize in working with adolescent and young adult in the area of anxiety, eating disorders and gender/sexuality. My clients are able to change behaviors such as avoiding, restricting, ruminating, indulging, escaping into effective coping strategies. As confidence and motivation increases, I have seen my clients develop an authentic version of themselves by gaining insight into their thoughts and behaviors, building awareness around their relationships with others and challenging unhelpful coping behaviors.

I provide support and guidance to those who struggle with emotional distress leading to difficulties identifying and managing emotions. This can be the result of untreated anxieties, low self-esteem resulting in body image issues and challenges around food. If you have experienced a significant decline in your quality of life and want to set goals, process and heal from your traumas, I have found that providing a stable and consistent therapeutic relationship is at the foundation of that healing.

Specializing in diverse communities, I guide individuals through their paths of healing and personal growth. If you are grappling with anxiety, low self-esteem, or disordered eating, I am here to support and empower you.

Together, we will work towards fostering a healthy relationship with your body, building resilience, and navigating the complexities of your life with newfound insight and support.

With a deep focus on groups and family relationships, I specialize in assisting individuals who face fears of abandonment and loss of control, which can manifest in eating disorders, anxiety, and mood and personality disorders.

My aim is to empower you to embark on a transformative journey equipped with courage and resilience. Together, we will chart a course towards profound healing and personal growth.

I specialize in working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, body image, relationship issues, self esteem, and more.

I specialize in supporting individuals in demanding academic or professional settings. My clients often struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and stress.

I provide evidence-based, practical processes and exercises tailored to challenge distorted beliefs and shift towards actions that lead to overcoming obstacles and achieving success.

I primarily work with people with Developmental Disabilities, such as ADHD, LD (Dyslexia and Nonverbal Learning Disability), and Autism Spectrum Disorder. I also test for Giftedness and Twice or more exceptional. Anxiety and depression are also part of my referral questions.

Seeking therapy is a sign of personal strength. Often people who engage in therapy are actually doing well in life, but would like to do better in one area or another. It takes awareness in our lives and courage to be able to reach out for help. I strive to put people at ease in building the therapeutic relationship. I also greatly value individual differences and approach each client with an open-minded and non-judgmental stance. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important aspect of a successful experience in therapy.

My goals are to reduce symptoms while helping clients move toward positive long-term changes.
