Rosemary Christoph

Hello, I'm Rosemary, a lively and caring psychotherapist based in Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts. With over 30 years of experience in counseling and therapy, I am dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate their mental health journeys. I have openings for individual clients, as well as teenagers who are dealing with anger, anxiety, or depression, and for those experiencing personal stress or relationship crises. I warmly welcome LGBTQ clients and have particular experience with trauma, anger, depression, anxiety, shame, debt crises, and abusive family patterns that need to be changed.

My goal in our sessions is to nurture your capacity for decision-making, healing, and life change. Together, we will explore impasses until they shift into turning points. I utilize a variety of methods, including psychotherapy, talk therapy, homework, and the creative arts, depending on what you choose. Writing, drawing, and especially our dreams enable us to tap into the invisible world, that reservoir of meaning and healing within us. As a writer, parent, counselor, and musician, I am fascinated by how these modalities can lead to creative breakthroughs.

I believe that our obstacles and crises can become steps to growth and meaning, rather than keeping us mired in repetitive habits. Life throws challenges at us, and it is up to us to rise to the occasion, find strength we did not know we had, and press forward. I am here to support your process toward inner connection, inner peace, and self-awareness. If you are ready to embark on this journey, I would be honored to work with you.
