Therapists in Grafton County, NH

When I took my first sociology and psychology class in undergraduate school, I learned that I was fascinated with people, groups of people and social systems and how they all work together to develop the person and mind. I have worked in many different settings helping children, adolescents, and adults meet their goals. I have worked therapeutic residential settings, community mental health settings, community-based services settings and the academic setting providing services to individuals and families for the last 7 years.

There are many reasons to come to therapy. I specialize in issues with mood and trauma. Issues with mood can result in feelings of anxiety, depression, low mood or mood swings. There are different ways that this can play out in life. You may be trying to manage deep painful emotions, outbursts of anger, feelings of emptiness, low motivation, lethargy or restless energy. Mood issues may result in difficulty making decisions, issues relating to others, feeling dependent on others, having difficulty saying no or asking for help, perfectionism, rigidity or black and white thinking. I work with issues relating to high intellect as well.

Do you ever feel as though your emotions, thoughts, or worries have control over your life, perhaps causing you to feel stuck, avoidant, or overwhelmed?

If so, I invite you to come and meet with me to explore the benefits that counseling has to offer in a safe and non-judgmental environment.

My experience is in treating depressive and anxiety disorders including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, OCD, and PTSD. I also particularly enjoy working with young adults and adults experiencing more complex and severe forms of mental illness (including bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and other forms of psychosis ). Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a collaborative process in which we’ll work together to identify what you hope to address and create a strategy to achieve your goals. Often it can be helpful to better understand the complex pattern of interactions between your thoughts, emotions and behaviors.

Although I have experience treating a broad array of diagnostic categories, my approach is centered on treating the whole person. I look toward an understanding of the behaviors, thoughts, feelings, and ways of interacting that individuals repeat in spite of a wish to behave differently. My focus is on helping patients hear beyond what they know themselves to be saying, which, in my experience, allows individuals to feel more freedom and less angst in being in the world. I find that I am most helpful with people who want to know themselves better, or feel differently on a deep level.

I am an active therapist, sensitive and authentic, with a deep respect for diversity and the individual's own path. Together we'll examine your life, alert to possible contradictions, exploring the wisdom or effectiveness of certain behaviors or beliefs. Through supportive listening, education, empowerment and expert guidance, you can become more aware of unhealthy patterns and hidden strengths, leading you to make positive changes to improve your life experience, strengthening your sense of what you want and what makes you feel good, moment to moment and long term. I do therapy with people struggling with a range of problems:

I enjoy working with adolescents, adults and groups. I believe therapy is about developing a supportive, collaborative relationship, as the therapeutic relationship guides everything. I help people identify patterns of thinking and acting that are getting in their way. We explore how these patterns emerged and work towards healthy solutions and positive life changes. I have training working with individuals who have experienced trauma and suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. I also assist people in identifying thinking patterns and behaviors that have led to the use of drugs and alcohol to self medicate difficult feelings and emotions.

The guiding philosophy of my practice is to help people understand themselves in the service of personal development within the context of a safe and reliable relationship with another person. I believe that deep and rich self-examination requires rigorous and systematic pursuit on the part of both therapist and patient as they work together. My philosophy places a high value on curiosity, creativity, purposeful aims, tolerance of discomfort, and the strength for meaningful work and satisfying relationships. These are experienced or learned through the medium of the psychotherapeutic relationship.
