My approach derives from psychodynamic, family systems, relational and cognitive schools of psychotherapy. I want to help my clients achieve greater clarity about their circumstances, choices, relationships, and ultimately, themselves. I am highly engaged and attuned, warm, enthusiastic and personable. I find that when clients feel seen, deeply understood, and accepted, their internal compasses become more finely tuned, enabling them to make life choices that better align with their values and personal nature. These changes become vehicles for developing new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating to others. My young adult clients are often NU students with mental health, academic, career, and adjustment concerns. Other areas of expertise include infertility, perinatal/post-partum, non-traditional paths to family, parenthood, relationship issues, infidelity, divorce, life transitions, trauma, mood & anxiety disorders, adult children of alcoholics, and grief. Deivani Ramanathan, LCSW; Bridget Bauersfeld, LCSW, Kaitlyn Whitebread, LCPC, Cynthia Doucette, LCSW; and Hannah Williams work in my practice. Collectively, we serve a broad and diverse clientele age 11 through the lifespan. To learn more, please see my website: www.mimilandautherapy.com.
