About Ryan
Experience + Counseling Style
Welcome! I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Beverly, Massachusetts. I have been working with teenagers and adults in individual therapy for almost ten years. I value the creation of a warm, caring space that allows for honest reflection and valuable personal growth.
I graduated from Lesley University with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. While at Lesley I was a student in the Holistic Studies program, taking a deeper dive into the way matters of mind, body & spirit can be integrated into a transformative counseling process. This has led me to incorporate a wide range of practices to my work, incorporating mindfulness and mind-body approaches to more traditional, talk-based therapy models. I have advanced training in Existential Therapy from the Institute for Existential-Psychoanalytic Therapy, which I use to support clients in understanding the patterns that unfold in relationship with others. My experience includes work in a variety of community health settings, such as high school and college counseling centers, psychiatric day treatment, in-home therapy, and outpatient clinics.
An active curiosity about the complexities of life makes me a forever student, and I continue to find inspiration in life’s teachings. I hope to support you in doing the same!
