Individual Therapy

Therapy that meets you where you are.

Trauma-informed care for adults navigating trauma, OCD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and the cumulative weight of life. In-person on Cape Cod and via secure telehealth across Massachusetts.

For Individuals

Therapy that fits your life — not the other way around.

Collaborative Minds Counseling is, first and foremost, a private practice for individual therapy. Most of the people I work with are adults navigating something specific — trauma, OCD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder — or the cumulative weight of years of holding too much.

Whether you’re here for yourself or for someone you love, the work is the same: I help you build the tools and the perspective that make life feel like yours again.

What I Treat

Specialty Areas

My primary clinical focus is on trauma, OCD, and mood disorders — the conditions that most often go untreated, undertreated, or treated with the wrong tools.

Trauma & PTSD

Single-incident, cumulative, and occupational trauma. Whether the trauma happened once or has been showing up across a career, the goal is the same: stop reliving it and start integrating it.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Intrusive thoughts, compulsions, and the exhausting feedback loop of fear and avoidance. Evidence-based approaches that don’t add to the anxiety they’re meant to treat.

Mood Disorders

Depression, bipolar disorder, and the wear of low-grade chronic distress that doesn’t look like a crisis but quietly costs you everything.

Anxiety

Generalized anxiety, panic, social anxiety, and performance-related anxiety. The shapes anxiety takes when it doesn’t have a single trigger and the body just won’t calm down.

Compassion Fatigue & Burnout

For the people who give care for a living — helping professionals, healthcare workers, teachers, caregivers, first responders, and anyone running on empty. Burnout is not a personal failure; it’s a treatable condition with a specific shape and recovery path.

Life Transitions

Career change, divorce, loss, parenting shifts, identity work, post-trauma rebuilding, midlife and beyond. The moments where the old roadmap stops working and the new one hasn’t been drawn yet.

I also work with: grief · family conflict · substance use concerns (assessment, harm reduction, referral) · relationship distress · identity and self-concept work.

How It Works

What therapy with me looks like.

We start with a free 15-minute phone consultation so you can ask questions, share what’s bringing you here, and get a feel for whether we’d work well together. There’s no pressure to book afterward.

From there, sessions are typically 50 minutes, weekly or bi-weekly to start. As needed, we adjust frequency. Some clients work with me for a few months. Some stay for years. I follow your lead.

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed, person-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused approaches — whatever fits the person in front of me. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all and I don’t treat it like it is.

Where we meet

In person at Collaborative Minds Counseling, 923 Route 6A, Sunflower Marketplace, Yarmouth Port, MA — or via secure telehealth across Massachusetts. Both work. Pick whichever fits your week.

Case Management for Individuals & Families

Mental health care doesn’t stop at the therapy room door. Case management is for the in-between work — the calls, the coordination, the navigating, the paperwork — that helps you and your family actually access the care you need.

What case management may include:

  • Coordinating warm hand-offs to psychiatrists, specialists, or higher levels of care (PHP, IOP, inpatient)
  • Navigating insurance benefits, prior authorizations, and appeals
  • Researching and vetting trauma-informed providers, support groups, and community resources
  • Facilitating family meetings or coordinating care across multiple providers
  • Assisting with applications for benefits and supportive services (PFML, DMH, MRC, and others)
  • Advocacy and follow-through with school, workplace, or legal systems when clinically relevant
Rate: $75 per hour
Documented in 15-minute increments. All services rendered are posted to the payor prior to completion. Private pay only — not billable to insurance.
