THERAPY SERVICES
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. For over twenty-five years I have worked with adults and their families. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression and relationship issues. Feeling stuck? Whether you want to create better relationships with friends, parents, children or adult children, or need help with anxiety, sleeping issues, depression or other mental health challenges, I'd love to help you towards the change you want to make. Want to schedule an appointment? You can contact me by email, at palwrites@aol.com as I check my messages daily. I am currently doing teletherapy only on Mondays and on Tuesday mornings. I take most insurances for therapy and major credit cards, square, paypal and venmo for copays.
