I provide psychotherapy services to adults, couples, adolescents and families. I seek to create a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship to foster a process of self-awareness, insight, hope, healing and transformation. My expertise includes the use of mindfulness and eclectic psychotherapy to address mental illness, substance abuse, addictions, fluctuations in mood, feelings of dissatisfaction in relationships or at work. Psychotherapy is a reciprocal relationship, which facilitates personal awareness and growth. Your growth and change will lead to an increase sense of identity, personal power, creativity and purpose.

Hi my name is Venita and I am a seasoned clinician with many years of experience helping families and individuals in need.

When you improve your relationship with yourself and your relationships with others, you are “on the path” to a happier, healthier life. I’d like to help you along that path. Together, we can explore a range of approaches: whatever works. But – so you know where I’m coming from – in the end, it’s always about relationships. I’d like to meet you.

**Currently I have NO AVAILABILITY UNTIL APRIL** **Only taking TUFTS or PRIVATE PAY for time being** I work with a wide range of clients and find that they become easily engaged in the therapeutic process due to the safe environment and space that is provided. Together we come up with a goal to work toward and through positive interactions, psychoeducation, and cathartic experiences much can be accomplished.

As an eclectic therapist, I employ many tools when working with you. With adults, I primarily rely on cognitive behavioral techniques. This is an approach that aims to influence dysfunctional emotions, behaviors and thoughts through a goal-oriented, systematic procedure. It is proven to be quite effective with mood, anxiety, personality, eating, substance abuse, and psychotic disorders. With children, I rely on a variety of play therapy and behavioral therapy techniques. Your treatment will be influenced by your own needs and symptoms to help you meet to your goals. You deserve to love the life you live!
