Empathic, Non-Judgmental Therapy for Adults
Individuals and Couples
I believe that everyone encounters periods in their lives when they can use the guidance and support of an empathic therapist. When I work with clients I am respectful of where they are in their lives, and I strive to provide them with the insight, tools and skills they need to move forward effectively and productively. The basis of the client-therapist relationship is confidentiality. It's important for a client to feel safe within the four walls of my therapy office when talking about very personal issues. Clients can expect me to respect their confidentiality to the fullest extent possible, and to be honest with them about my policies and procedures so that there are no surprises. For example, at the outset of therapy I explain to clients that there is one exception to confidentiality, and that is where I perceive there to be child abuse. In those cases, I am mandated by law to report the situation to authorities.

Addiction and Trauma Treatment
Criminal Justice Specialist
The Humanistic approach has and continues to be the form of therapy that most closely matches my sense of the world and how human beings exist within it. Based on the fundamental concept of the power of human growth, it speaks to me of hope, of personal power, of the ability for each of us to change ourselves and our world into someone or something that we can experience differently. It seems to me that it takes courage to try to change things that matter to us - which is why I believe the therapeutic relationship is so valuable.

EFT & EMDR
With more than 30 years of clinical experience, my clients (adults, couples and groups) tell me they most appreciate my patience, insight and good humor. I believe deeply in my clients' abilities to find their truth when met with skill and honesty offered without judgment. Many come people come to me with trauma-based issues. It is essential for fear and frustration to be addressed in ways that are both effective and tolerable. I often use EMDR as well as EFT - Meridian Tapping and Mindfulness Practices to help clients move through painful memories and/or negative, limiting self-beliefs which get in the way of high performance and joyful living. I do not practice "cookie cutter" therapy - each client is unique in his or her needs. The first thing I do with each person is listen. Then, together, we work out a plan that will meet your needs in the safest, most respectful and efficient way possible.

Holistic Therapist, Looking Forward to
Challenging Cases from People Needing My Expertise
I am a holistic therapist, looking forward to challenging cases from people needing my expertise. Making use of a wide variety of therapies, from verbal to non-verbal, devoting much time on each of the select cases I take, and engaging in colleague consultations, I am often able to help with even the most difficult of issues. I also see children, doing family therapy even for the toughest kids. You'll see the difference family support makes, rather than my just trying to "fix the kid". I often begin with symptom-focused behavioral counseling to attempt rapid symptom improvement. When people stay beyond that brief initial period of basic counseling, we move into long-term psychodynamic psychotherapy to find and remedy the problem’s root cause. I encourage people to call me and we can talk about what your particular issues are and how I will be able to help you out. Or, if there is something I can't help you with, I will help you find the best regional expert for your issue.

Health mind. Healthy Family.
Treatment is results oriented, which means we work together at the beginning to define the changes that are meaningful to you. In a basic sense, psychotherapy is for thinking about feelings. We are all part of systems, be they family, work or society. The outcome is more freedom to be yourself. With children, treatment approach is family-centered. In the long run, the best therapist for your child is you, the parent. Parent consultation is an integral part of treatment for children and teens. Play space, art therapy and parent observation available. Psychological testing and family meetings are options. In Couples Counseling or Marital Therapy the patient is the relationship. In couples treatment, i thoughtfully guide your interactions to encourage better understanding of each other. This approach reduces the tendency to blame one another for differences, and leads the two of you into your own manner of accepting them. Pet-Assisted Therapy (PAT).

From Surviving to Thriving
Imagine feeling in control of your life again. You feel calm, focused and relaxed. You have the strategies and tools necessary to keep your stress in check and you’re making strides toward living the life you desire. Maybe something unexpected recently happened in your life and you're not sure how to navigate through. Maybe your mind is racing all the time, making it difficult for you to focus and accomplish your goals. Maybe your relationships have suffered because of this. Maybe you just feel stuck and need someone to help guide you through this phase of your life. Regardless of your current struggles, we can help. Our goal is to help clients develop new skills and insights to improve the quality of their lives, relationships, and careers and move from simply surviving to thriving. In addition to highly-tuned intuition, we integrate action-oriented strategies to increase insight and awareness into what isn’t working, which opens the doors for lasting change. We understand no two people are alike, so we don’t adhere to a “one-size-fits-all” model. Our tailored approach is simple: implement a straightforward, no-nonsense model using evidence-based, solution-focused strategies for fast, effective, long-lasting results.

Sex and Relationship Therapy
For individuals, couples and people in poly relationships
Northampton Sex Therapy Associates, LLC (NSTA) is the only group private practice in New England dedicated exclusively to providing sex therapy, relationship therapy, and sexuality counseling to individuals, couples, and people in poly and non-monogamous relationships. Like most other forms of psychotherapy practice, sex therapy is exclusively talk therapy. This means meeting regularly with a therapist to talk about how to overcome whatever problem you have presented. During these meetings, sex therapists share their knowledge of human sexuality and expertise in working with sexual functioning and relationship challenges. Our clinical approach is grounded in research and evidence, rather than smoke and mirrors or vague, general promises. We provide clinical approaches and solutions that actually work, based on research and clinical experience. Over the course of a person's lifetime, multiple factors can add up and lead to difficulties with sex. Stress, trauma, illness, the side effects of medications, depression, and lack of self-esteem often negatively impact a person’s sexual functioning and desire. It is not uncommon for couples and individuals to experience sex-related challenges at some point in their lives. Everyone, and every body, deserves to experience satisfying, exciting, loving, and fulfilling sexual relationships and sexual contact. Sex therapy can often help. Most clients come to us with trauma, shame and guilt about the ways in which they are sexual and embodied. NSTA therapists understand the ways in which trauma—and the resulting fear and anxiety—impacts sexual functioning, and inhibits healthy sexual behavior. We help clients overcome sexual difficulties by using trauma-­informed clinical practices. Anxiety and shame are at the root of most sexual dysfunctions. These are typically emotions and feelings that trap human beings in rigid and fearful ways of expressing, or not expressing, themselves. These emotions and feelings have a powerful impact, particularly on how we manifest ourselves in sexual ways, sometimes to the point of retreating and hiding our bodies and sexuality, and occasionally to places of sexual compulsivity and over-expression. Regardless of the ways in which clients experience challenges with sex, we are in a unique position to help them navigate the often complex pathway toward feeling at home in their bodies and in their sexuality.

Private and personalized client centered therapy. The highest outcome from therapy are long-term lasting intimate relationships. Sometimes we can become overwhelmed by our life situations and are unable to successfully integrate our experiences. Instead we are taken hostage by our symptoms and without professional help the best we able to do is experience temporary relief. Quality therapy produces trait change which is permanent. Sessions are paced and have a progressive informed consent approach that keeps you in the "window of tolerance" and self-regulation techniques are taught and practiced to ensure your ability to ground yourself. Mindfulness techniques help you to stay present and breath techniques help you experience mind-body relief.

Maximize Your Potential
I will help you bring forth your natural well-being to improve your experience of life and your relationships. My approach to counseling is educational and I will provide many resources to deepen your understanding of ther inside-out nature of life. This approach, sometimes referred to as "health realization," guides clients/students toward insights since positive and sustainable change occurs automatically through insight. There is no need to practice techniques or strategies. Insights last a lifetime and help you to bounce back quicker from difficult situations regardless of your situation or circumstances. It all begins with a simple conversation to uncover the ways in which you've been thinking that may be hidden in your blind spot but is getting in the way of a fulfilling life. I also provide coaching sessions for business executives and work teams to help maximize individual potential and team performance.

Effective Trauma Treatment with EMDR
My practice specializes in treatment trauma, both individual and complex, with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is an evidence/research model that is successful in the treatment of recent and past traumatic events. EMDR is especially helpful to clients who have experienced trauma given it is not an exposure treatment model and does not required extensive talking about the traumatic incidents. The first two sessions are used to develop a psychosocial history and to identify the specific events to be desensitized with EMDR. Prior to treatment of traumatic events, clients create and practice realization tools to help with the success of the therapy. Traumatic incidents are scaled on the Subjective Units of Disturbance Scale ( 0 to 10) with 10 being the most severe. The goal in treatment is to bring the level of distress for the trauma to 0 or neutral. In addition, I specialize in working with Homicide Survivors, an individual who has had a member of their family murdered. I use the EMDR and the Recent Event Protocol to focus on and desensitize the event for the victim.

At the foundation of my approach, I conceptualizes all individuals and their interactions with others (relationships) within the Systems framework. More simply, one cannot understand the dynamic of our struggles without exploring the familial, social, and cultural contexts. My work is based in Solution-Focused Therapy. This encourages dialogue to explore client's strengths, resources, and past successes. My collaborative approach fosters a sense of agency in clients, creating a co-constructed dialogue to explore and create realistic attainable therapeutic goals. This approach further emphasizes that clients best understand their unique circumstances. Therefore the role of therapist is to support a co-constructed dialogue around necessary changes in perceptions, thoughts, and behaviors. Lastly, I bring to the environment a compassionate and gentle stance, providing my clients with a warm and safe environment allowing more opportunity for clients to deeply explore their history and present struggles.
