Family Therapy in Hollis, NH

Life has ups and downs and sometimes this can be stressful and overwhelming. If you’re having marital or family challenges, work related problems or struggling with anxiety, depression or chronic pain, I can offer you a safe and comfortable environment to find solutions to get you through these rough times.

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.

My approach to treatment is very client-centered - people enter treatment at various stages of readiness and I am here to meet you wherever you may be. I understand the nuances of beginning therapy, meeting a new therapist, setting goals, sharing personal information, and ironing out your biggest concerns - even when you feel unsure. My hope is to help each client unlock their sources of happiness and hope so they can confront whatever challenges they are facing - mood issues, anxiety, substance issues, family dynamic concerns, trauma, interpersonal relationship issues, school-related problems, self-harm, gender issues, etc.

Finding the right fit with a therapist can be challenging. I am a psychotherapist who excels at connecting with people and making them feel at ease. I'm known by my clients to be warm, engaged, humorous, direct and compassionate. I believe it is a privilege to sit with people who allow me to bear witness to their lives, stressors, and pain. I have great appreciation for the "and" that life often presents, and encourage clients to recognize and tolerate that we often experience conflicting emotions simultaneously. I approach therapy as an interactive process and enjoy working with people to develop a plan that works best for them.

Hi. I am a licensed psychologist lucky enough to love what I do. I have a thriving private practice working exclusively with adults in individual and couples/marital therapy. Whether you want help with personal/emotional struggles, relationships, stresses of everyday life, or a life crisis, I can help you feel more settled and confident about yourself and your life. Rooted in the present or past, issues including anxiety, depression and self-esteem may be interfering with your happiness and effectiveness. My approach varies with your particular needs but is always rooted in a safe and caring relationship and dedicated to promoting positive change.

I value creating a therapeutic plan for you that is effective and offers tangible outcomes tailored to meet your personal objectives.

I currently have no openings. Please check back in July. I don't take insurance. Payment is at time of session. Sessions are online. My specialty is Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) which research has shown to be effective for many types of mental health and relationship issues. CBT focuses on solving current problems in a time-sensitive and structured way, along with teaching clients how to modify thinking and behavior that is getting in the way of living the life they want. I work with clients to help them get through their current crisis, and if needed, to explore past issues that continue to make it difficult to move forward.

I provide a safe space to process difficult life situations and to create healthy, positive and lasting change. When adults struggle, we often want to fix our problems immediately or avoid them altogether. But for lasting change to occur, experiences must be processed at a deeper level. I thrive on the ability to provide you with tools to create lifelong change.
