Couples therapists in Duxbury, MA

I bring more than clinical training to this work—drawing on two decades in supporting individuals to self-actualize through education, design, and community building. My approach is integrative, warm, and forward-looking. It’s practical and rooted in evidence-based practices like Internal Family Systems, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), expanded by psychedelic and existential frameworks, and grounded in the belief that safety and transformation begin from within.

My journey stems from my own story of resilience in the face of hardships. I became a therapist because I have always wanted to help people through some of their darkest hours. Being exposed to some dark hours myself, I know that it is difficult to do it alone. When you have someone to confide in, assist you through the hard times, and just let you know that you are not alone, makes a difference.

My therapeutic approach includes CBT, Person-Centered Therapy, Relational Therapy, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, SFT, EMT, Gestalt, and just speaking like a human being. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space where you can feel safe, seen, and supported. My approach is relational and personalized—we'll explore your story together, build coping tools, and move toward healing with curiosity, courage, and care.

Therapy with me is real, down-to-earth, and never boring. I mix honesty, humor, and heart to make the process comfortable. I help adults manage emotions, build confidence, and tackle life's challenges with tools that work. Think of it as a safe space to be yourself, grow, and maybe laugh along the way.

As an independent licensed clinical social worker, with 12 plus years of experience and a current Ph.D. student, I approach therapy as a collaborative process centered on compassion, authenticity, and growth. My style is down-to-earth and supportive, while also gently challenging when needed to help you uncover patterns and build lasting change. I draw from evidence-based approaches—including CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based practices—while always tailoring the work to your unique needs and strengths.

I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and recovery. My background includes years of experience supporting clients in both outpatient and community mental health settings, which taught me that true healing happens when people feel seen, safe, and empowered to take small, steady steps forward.

Clients often describe my style as calm, engaging, and practical. I believe in combining insight with action—helping you not only understand what’s happening but also find concrete ways to move through it. Whether we’re addressing past trauma, current stressors, or future goals, my goal is to help you reconnect with your resilience and rediscover a sense of meaning and momentum in your life.

I have been a clinical social worker for over 20 years and worked in a variety of settings. My goal is to help you realize your strengths, how to set and achieve your therapy goals, listen attentively, and make an achievable plan with you.

I am married and a father of two young adult sons. I love my work and hold it as an important value in my life. My focus for two decades plus has been on relationships.

"Come as you are, hold yourself dear!" At Dear Therapy, I'm a multilingual therapist specializing in specialized in working with clients who are dealing with relationship issues (pre-marital and marital counseling/couples counseling, sex therapy), going through life transitions (loss of loved ones, job loss, immigration etc), and ADHD (managing related depressive and anxious symptoms). We'll also explore family and societal impact in your life.

The way you think, feel, and act creates your reality. But it can be hard to quiet your mind as it is currently. Maybe you're caught in cycles of overthinking or people-pleasing, prioritizing others’ needs and leaving little space for your own. You long to feel connected and grounded, but the buzzing energy never fully fades. Even when things look fine on the outside, you might feel emotionally overwhelmed or like you're not doing enough — no matter how much you achieve. You may wonder, “Why do I feel this way? Am I broken?” You’re not. These thoughts and feelings are trying to point you somewhere. I can help you make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface to live with ease, authenticity, and pleasure. Let's explore your potential reality together.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I believe that mental well-being is foundational to living a fulfilling and connected life. Taking the step to begin therapy can be challenging, and I commend you for making that choice. Over the course of my career in college and community mental health, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate substance use, addiction, anxiety, grief, trauma, life transitions, and challenges with motivation. My goal is to create a compassionate, judgment-free environment where growth and healing can take root.
