I have worked extensively with children and adolescents in a variety of settings including schools, therapeutic programs, and outpatient treatment.
Life can be challenging at every developmental stage and despite our best efforts, navigating these difficulties can feel overwhelming, and at times, insurmountable. It can be extremely helpful to explore personal and family struggles in a neutral, non judgemental, and safe environment. It is my priority to establish a trusted collaborative relationship with my clients to create opportunities for positive growth and progress in this context. We will work to build increased self awareness, self confidence, and effective coping strategies to help you live your best life despite personal circumstances and present challenges.

Currently accepting group members! Through my experience as a therapist in the mental health and substance abuse field, I've come to believe that change occurs through gaining insight into our own thinking processes. When we begin to learn more about our thinking patterns, which generally arise from past experiences, we begin to change the way we feel. The therapeutic journey begins by identifying reoccurring themes or what I term "addictions." The process continues by coaching you to master your triggers and develop counter actions. It is through this process that you will be empowered to handle your life problems with more ease.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Franklin, MA provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Franklin build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
