Do you find yourself struggling with how to manage feelings of worry and sadness? Do these feelings have a negative impact on your relationships, self-esteem and day to day functioning? I provide outpatient psychotherapy to individuals who are struggling to make sense of their emotions and have a desire to learn how to manage them better. I strongly believe that people have the ability and power to make positive life change and that therapy is a collaborative effort towards growth, strength and resilience.

By working together, you can learn to become more successful with how to channel your emotions into more effective behaviors and thoughts. Among several therapeutic modalities, I am well versed in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I utilize this evidenced based treatment to help with chronic distress, worrying, struggles in relationships and difficulties with self-esteem. I also combine this with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to assist with issues related, but not limited to, the following:

• self-confidence

• life stress

• grief

• struggles with motivation

• parenting

• post partum difficulties

• workplace pressures

• work/home life balance

• struggles with change and transition

 

I have worked in a variety of environments and with a wide range of individuals. I have provided treatment in:

• The NH State Prison for Women (my internship in Graduate School)

• Community Mental Health

• Integrated health care within a gynecology practice

• Outpatient services in a hospital setting

• Private Practice

 

I obtained my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2007 from Rivier University and completed my requisite clinical and supervisory hours towards NH State Licensure in 2009. I also served as a Clinical Supervisor during my time working in Community Mental Health providing supervision hours for licensure candidates and was a lead DBT clinician on staff. I complete all mandatory Continuing Education Units to maintain my license and have been successfully credentialed with numerous major health insurance companies throughout my career.
