I also provide a supportive therapeutic space to individuals exploring and embracing identities including LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergence. I provide person-centered therapy sessions in which individuals can feel seen and heard, developing safety and trust. In therapy, you can identify and expand upon your strengths and supports to create new meaning in life. I incorporate mindfulness-based skills, including visualizations, breathing exercises, meditations and progressive muscle relaxation, to improve emotional regulation. I also utilize CBT, leading you in identifying self-talk statements that do not serve you, and reframing these statements to better serve you going forward. I provide room in therapy sessions for creativity and imagining new possibilities. I received my BA from Hampshire College in Psychology and Art, and received a Master's from Lesley University in Expressive Therapies, Art Therapy and Mental Health Counseling.
First session
In our first session, we will start with brief introductions, and then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. We will examine if there are any thoughts or behaviors that may have served you at one time but that have stopped serving you. We will explore what coping skills you have tried that have or have not worked. We will explore potential supports or interests that you would like to build upon.
Strengths
I provide validation. I help clients to discover and build upon areas of strength and support in their lives. I bring creativity into the process as we examine coping skills that have and have not worked, and ways to reimagine new possibilities.
Ideal clients
It is an honor to bear witness to clients as they sift through grief, losses, trauma, and caregiver stress to rediscover new roles for themselves and patterns that better serve them.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I believe in providing therapy sessions in which individuals can feel seen and heard, developing safety and trust. In therapy, clients can identify and expand upon their strengths and supports to create new meaning in their lives.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I lead clients in identifying self talk statements that do not serve them, and reframing these statements to better serve them going forward. We examine thinking patterns, behaviors and feelings, and how the three interact in life situations.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness skills I have led clients in often throughout the past seven years include visualizations, breathing exercises, meditations and progressive muscle relaxation.
