Therapists in New Hampshire

Throughout life, we will encounter difficult times that bring about emotional and behavioral challenges. These challenges can impact us in many ways from relationship issues to self-esteem problems, to discomfort at work, school or in social settings. Therapy helps you identify your unique challenges, provides an opportunity to work through them and empowers you to build new skills to use in the future. I take an integrative approach that draws from trauma informed care, mindfulness, and cognitive and behavioral interventions.

I believe the therapeutic process is a collaboration between client and therapist. This process is unique and can focus on your past and/or present situation.

Adolescents who are struggling with peer relationships, conflict with parents, transition issues, anxiety and stress, depression, self worth and self esteem challenges. My work with adults focuses on the ability to better manage mood disorders, relationship difficulties, parenting issues and employment stress.

These things make it hard to enjoy life and relationships. Psychological symptoms are often the result of unprocessed memories and experiences.

Pregnancy can be one of the most wonderful and stressful times in a woman’s life with enormous changes in family dynamics and relationships. Whether a new parent or care taker, or experiencing the tragedy of interrupted pregnancy or loss, expectations for a new mother can be very high and too often dismissive of the unique stressors involved with making a new human. When unpredicted changes happen, people can feel alone, isolated, and afraid to give voice to their vulnerabilities.
