What should a new client know about working with you?
I’ve been working as a therapist for 40 years in a wide variety of settings. These include college mental health, community agencies, crisis intervention and hospital based services. I have also maintained a private practice along the way. I enjoy working with a wide range of individuals of all ages and varying backgrounds and lifestyles.
I earned my M.S.W. degree in 1985 from Smith College School for Social Work. Prior to that, I was working in the field with a Masters in Counseling.
I am licensed in Massachusetts as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker.
I work collaboratively with people, which means I’m interested in understanding as much as I can about what you’re thinking and feeling about the challenges you’re facing right now. You might be feeling stressed, anxious, angry, or confused. I want to hear about this from your point of view. Together we can set goals and discuss ways to track your progress. This is how we ensure the therapy is working for you.
I have considerable experience with women’s issues including recovery from breast cancer, eating disorders ( over & under-eating), anxiety and panic, depression, stress management, addiction, workplace challenges, PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), family conflict, loss of a special person or animal and the grieving process that follows.
The approaches that I draw on for my therapeutic work include solution focused, cognitive behavioral, family systems and stages of change (Prochaska).
In this time of Covid-19 many of us are facing unexpected anxiety, unanticipated challenges, and/or an intensification of issues that were previously manageable. Shelter-in-place policies are an extreme disruption to routines of work, family, and social life. This is when reaching out for help is tremendously important.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
