Counselors near Needham, MA

Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the clients convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*

Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the client's convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*

Biography: With more than 10 years of experience working with families and individuals, I have had the humbling experience of supporting clients through significant changes in their lives. These changes can come at the individual level such as physical and mental health abilities, the relationship level such as communication concerns or role expectations, or at the systemic level such as collaboration with medical teams and coordination of family and caregivers. It is a humbling experience because I recognize that I am being brought in often during one of the worst moments in someone's life. I do not take that lightly and I try to ensure that each client I work with feels safe and supported. In practice I have utilized varying therapeutic approaches and I work with the client to identify which approach best meets their needs. Truth be told, because not one size fits all, it is often a combination of multiple therapies. I have found that the most frequently used in my work are Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Solution-Based Approach, Mindfulness Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. The most common feedback I receive from those that I work with is that they feel I have a calming presence, a kindness that helps them to feel immediately comfortable, and the knowledge and expertise to truly help them achieve their goals. I understand the value in balancing the joys of life with the challenges of life , and I look forward to establishing this balance with you.
