Therapists in Durham, NH

Providing psychotherapy is my vocation. I believe in the healing power of safe connections. I will approach you with a compassionate curiosity and that will help you to know yourself more deeply, take risks to grow, and feel more confident in your daily life. I often work with the nervous system to honor how you have survived what life has given you, metabolize trauma, and allow new ways of coping to emerge. My hope is to support you in being more present, joyful and fully alive. I believe in the capacity of the human spirit to survive and thrive through transitions and life’s challenges.

*Temporarily closed to new until AUGUST* We each can find our path to resilience. It is my honor to witness your story. I approach clients with a collaborative, holistic, and direct style informed by my training in various individual and family therapy models as well as my experience facilitating groups for over 20 years. I help people identify stuck patterns and move forward into a fuller life, assisting people in various life circumstances with a wide range of personal and relational stresses.

I am a Career Counselor and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor specializing in career, self-esteem, and life transitions. If you are looking to make a change, switch jobs, or just feeling stuck, I can help. Life transitions such as midlife, divorce, emptynest, returning to work after having a baby, or just having the desire to start over can be overwhelming. Working together will help you to clarify your needs and purpose, understand what has gotten in your way, rebuild your self confidence, and will move you toward the career and life you have always wanted.

Relief comes with being understood and with workable options that feel right to you. I do therapy with individuals and couples. Currently, the practice is limited to adult women aged 25 and older, individuals who feel stress, anxiety, or depression.

I am currently licensed in MA, NH, and VT. As a trauma therapist, I embrace an unconventional therapeutic style, incorporating humor and a holistic approach into my clinical practice. My practice is inclusive and welcoming to individuals from all identities and backgrounds. Many of my clients are neurodivergent or members of the LGBTQIA+ community who are experiencing issues related to complex PTSD and/or substance use and addiction. Drawing upon a deep understanding of trauma dynamics, harm reduction, and 12-step models, I stand by my clients as they venture into a path of healing and self-exploration.

Feeling anxious? You are not alone. Now more than ever it can be easy to end up feeling overwhelmed, uncertain and depressed. The pressures of relationships, school or work, family, friends all seem to pile up - and then taking care of yourself ends up on the bottom of the priority list. At Movemental Wellbeing, my approach is to help create a calm space where the anxiety and overwhelm don't have such a profound hold on you. One of the best strategies I know to do this is to find opportunities to go outside with clients, to go for a walk, and to feel connected and understood.

Enso Counseling Group approaches each client with an individualized approach. We understand that even though you may be experiencing difficulty with changes in life, anxiety, depression, or trauma, your individual experience differs from that of the next person. We understand that you want to be treated as a person, even if you need a specific evaluation. It is our goal to ensure that your individualism and humanity is recognized regardless of the circumstance that brings you to us. We see you. We will walk with you to the solutions that you need. We will help you with your journey to a better self.

Everyone has the capacity to change. It is often the challenges of life stress, biology, and circumstances that keep us from becoming the person that we want to be. Therapy is a partnership and through mutual goal setting we can address the things that get in the way of your ability to do the things that are important to you. My professional experience has been with children and families and the challenges adults face as they create relationships or families of their own.

I have immediate availability for adults with daytime availability and a waitlist for minors . To get started, complete our screening form found on our website at www.alliancementalhealth.org. In my practice, I have worked with a wide range of clients, from adults to children, including families. I'm trained in a wide range of therapeutic techniques and styles, but feel most at home using a combination of client-centered and cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe that at its core, therapy is forming a positive relationship, and then using that relationship to motivate and reinforce healing and change.

PRACTICE IS FULL. I practice from a primarily cognitive-behavioral approach. Treatment typically includes challenging unhelpful beliefs about yourself, others and the world. Exposure and Response Prevention is typically used as the first line of treatment for OCD, OCD related disorders and anxiety disorders. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment, Dialectical Behavioral, and Relational therapies. Any behavior is an intention to sustain the self; yet many times the preserving behavior exacerbates the distress, fear, sadness, or anger.

A good life begins on the inside. I believe effective psychotherapy provides a collaborative relationship involving caring support, humor, and spontaneity. It enhances self-awareness and self-esteem, aids in improved interpersonal relationships, increases coping skills, and provides understanding of emotional patterns. The challenges that draw you to therapy are an invitation to heal and are the beginning of new possibilities for your life and your relationships. My goal as your therapist is to provide you with tools and perspectives, empowering you to transform your life so that you can emerge a stronger, healthier person.

As a Board Certified Diplomate in Clinical Social Work with 30 years experience, I've worked in hospitals, clinics, guidance centers, courts, and on psychiatric emergency teams. I have advanced training in eating disorders&depression and have consulted to the community on issues of ADHD, obesity,alcoholism, grief,parenting, geriatric care and trained graduate students from area colleges in short/ long term psychotherapy. The foundation of my training is psychodynamic. Additional training in cognitive behavior, family systems, and coaching, has created an integrated approach to my treatment of individuals, couples,and families. Careful assessment determines which approach best suits each patient.

I believe that when people feel understood, they have the best opportunity to successfully address life's challenges. Finding a therapist with whom you can talk honestly--one who can help you find the words to explain your feelings--can be life-changing. Creating a trusted relationship with a therapist can be the first step in developing the tools to live a life that feels richer and more authentic.

Welcome to my practice. With over 18 years as a practitioner in the mental health field, I have learned that at the heart of every successful clinical relationship is a strong therapeutic connection between the therapist and client. I consider it my responsibility to create a safe and nonjudgmental space that allows you to openly explore your thoughts and feelings. My approach is collaborative, present-focused, and solution-oriented. I also believe strongly in the connection between the mind and body and support a holistic approach to emotional health and wellness.

Are you unhappy with the direction your life or relationships are going? Struggling with feeling depressed, anxious, or stressed? Struggling with eating, body image, or substance use? I am happy to partner with you in making positive changes to improve your quality of life. I have over 25 years of experience treating a wide array of concerns including depression, anxiety, eating concerns, substance abuse, relationship concerns, self esteem issues, and performance enhancement. Please note my practice is currently largely tele-therapy at this time, creating easy access and flexibility in appointment times.

Are you looking to explore your gender, sexual, or other salient identities? Are you looking for a provider that has personal experience in the LGBTQIA+ community? I am a Queer, Non-Binary licensed psychologist striving to support the Queer communities of Maine and New Hampshire. I provide individual and group therapy, consultation, and letters of support for gender affirming care to individuals 18+ or adolescents that have consent from their parents for treatment. I practice using a collaborative, trauma informed, evidence-based approach rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

I love my work and am in awe of the individuals I work with who courageously address the hurts in their life that prevent them from living more fully. It maybe a crisis in a relationship, ongoing anxiety or depression, a painful trauma, or an inner sense that things are just not right. Together we pay attention to these feelings, enabling them to be talked about, more fully experienced and then understood. This transformative process can restore joy and resilience in life, as well as improve the capacity to care about oneself and be in relationship with others.

My therapy practice is dedicated to creating a safe, affirming space where you can explore self-discovery and personal growth. My focus is on building a strong therapeutic relationship while integrating themes from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and strengths-based frameworks.
