Therapists in Woburn, MA

Hello! Let me tell you a bit about me. I have worked in the mental health field for 25 years. I am a licensed mental health counselor licensed in Massachusetts and have a Masters in Counseling Psychology from Framingham state University. I have worked in a outpatient mental health clinic, home based therapy, a day treatment hospital and several school settings. My belief is the therapeutic bond of client and therapist is most significant throughout therapy. I believe strongly in the active participation of the client in his or her therapy. It is your therapy, it is all about You! The client needs to be heard and validated. The client needs to explore his or her feelings in the safest most comfortable setting. The client will feel the unconditional support and empathy from me, the therapist. My clients will explore their feelings and gain insight into the decisions they choose and slowly make changes for greater emotional happiness. I use a combination of several therapies. I have found The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with aspects of the Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy work well with the client who is a active participate in their therapy. I encourage mindfulness and physical exercise throughout my therapy. As a therapist, I am never stuck on one therapy that is not helpful. I will pull elements from the Emotion Focused Therapy as well as the Narrative Therapies. My aim is to find just the right appropriate therapy for each unique client. The goal of Therapy is to help YOU explore You!!! The end goal for each client is to find peace and emotional stability. The client needs to feel comfortable in his or her own skin. I have a history of working in individual, family and couple therapy. My clients have often exhibited anxiety, depression, trauma as well as dealing with life issues, divorce, death of a loved one, suicidal ideation and relationship issues. As therapy progresses my client have verbalized a increased self esteem. The client recognizes and gains an understanding of his feelings which leads to greater contentment.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a PhD in Developmental Psychology. I bring over 7 years of experience as a therapist and more than 25 years of experience as a coach. My career has taken me into school-based mental health, addiction treatment, residential care for children and teens, and outpatient settings supporting individuals with severe and persistent mental illness.

I have supported clients working through depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, addiction (including pornography), self-harm, anger management, and recovery from abuse. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and have extensive experience walking alongside people as they process and overcome painful life experiences. Therapy starts with your story. You are the expert on your life, and my role is to listen, understand, and help you move toward the goals that matter most to you. I provide a space grounded in respect, compassion, and dignity where you can feel safe to be yourself. I draw from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Bowenian theory, and Rational-Emotive Behavioral Therapy. I don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” therapy. Instead, we collaborate to create a plan that fits your needs, your values, and your pace. Life brings challenges that none of us are meant to face alone. Whether you’re working through anxiety, healing from trauma, managing stress, or wanting a clearer perspective on where you’re headed, I will be in your corner. Together, we’ll build practical strategies and lasting tools so you can move forward with confidence, resilience, and hope.

Hello! I often tell people that when choosing a new therapist, pick one that has had lots of therapy themself. I have! It's important to be aware of one's own issues in order to be effective in helping others, and to know what it's like to be in 'the other chair'. Through my own work I have also become aware of many pertinent resources that I enjoy sharing with my clients: books, groups, techniques, movies, and other providers that may be of help. I am very knowledgeable of addiction, trauma, sleep issues, relationship struggles, depression, and anxiety. My relationship with each client is different; some are playful and humorous, others very serious. I am good at both!

You've made the first, most difficult steps of identifying what you need to talk about, knowing you need to talk to someone 'outside,' and taking the leap of contacting us. I live in Massachusetts and have counseled many in schools, hospitals, clinics and private offices over the years. This new online telehealth platform created by some very creative people offers you and I an opportunity to meet and talk outside of the hassles of scheduling, driving, parking and talking in an office with a counselor, then repeating the same every 'visit.' I'm eager to meet you in this new environment where we can get to know each other much more easily. I provide short term, solution focused, individual therapy of 2-12 sessions with BH members who have issues and needs that can be resolved, relieved or improved within the frames of time and focus of short term therapy. I have studied and worked with a number of therapy approaches, for example, CBT, DBT, solution focused, family systems and couples' therapy. I am better at describing them in person, virtually. I strongly believe that we have within us what we need to heal ourselves from the emotional pain experienced in pasts and presents, and grow as we become our better selves. I also believe that change comes from the power of the therapeutic alliance: working together to improve your life and circumstances, as much as my skills and your innate strengths.
