Find a Therapist in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Psychotherapy is when you bring client one step closer to a new self, where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As a solution-focused psychotherapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

People seek psychotherapy because they are in some sort of emotional pain. The pain is a desperate signal that change is needed, and people who get the message are not "crazy" (although they may fear they are). They are actually very brave, because change can be difficult. Being in psychotherapy is like taking a course in yourself, designed by you and your therapist together. You'll learn about your hidden strengths and gifts. You'll also see hidden negative patterns you've absorbed from the environment when you were young. Your therapist will guide you in gradually saying goodbye to self-defeating attitudes and behaviors and learning to be happier and more successful in love and work

Victoria Counseling Services believes that combination of psychotherapy and psychopharmacology lead to a quick recovery of mental illness. Our clients are advised to either work with their therapist or get therapy with us as they continue their psychopharmacology. The mode of therapy prescribed is based on individuals diagnosis. Cognitive behavioral therapy, Supportive therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy are some of the many therapies that are available at Victoria Counseling Services.

My approach to psychotherapy begins with developing a relationship with you which will lead to a problem, cause, solution - when this is your goal, or a longer term deeper exploration that encompasses the level of inner delving that you desire. What you feel, you can heal, and often it requires gazing deeply within to re-write the script that has been running your life. It is your time to take the wheel and leave auto pilot behind. It is my job to guide you on this journey.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

I leverage a solution-based approach to clearly outline your primary challenge, work through an exercise to meditate on and define your future state and then work over 8 sessions to achieve it via homework and 1:1 sessions. Clients have experienced great success with this approach, my goal is to empower you - YOU have the answers and I want to help you find them.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

The reason you may enter into psychotherapy is so you can get to the truth about how you feel, how you act, what you believe, and to experience a clearer insight into yourself and your relationships.

I have many effective strategies and techniques that can help you reach your goals in order to feel more at peace within yourself. We can work at your pace, follow the path that works best for you, and accomplish your goals together.

In my psychotherapy practice, I offer a client-centered approach that integrates various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy. My goal is to create a safe and empathetic space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, gain insight into their challenges, and develop effective coping strategies. By tailoring my approach to the unique needs of each client, I strive to promote personal growth, emotional well-being, and a deeper understanding of oneself.
