Tom Moriarty Ma in Mental Health Counseling with specialization in holistic therapy
Tom is a pre-licensed-clinician with a masters degree in Mental Health Counseling from Lesley University, with a specialization in holistic studies. “I believe in striving for the harmonious integration of mind, body and spirit. I find myself drawn to modalities that incorporate mindfulness and depth psychology.” The cornerstone of Tom’s therapeutic approach lies in seeing the value and struggles of an individual in a nonjudgmental, compassionate light. From there he will support a process to embark on a collaborative exploration of what is meaningful, useful, and vital to an individual and their particular circumstances.
Prior to his therapeutic training Tom was a college athlete (baseball) and received a degree in Mathematics. After college he taught high school math and coached baseball for nine years. These years were formative in his journey towards becoming a therapist, he regularly found himself playing more than the teacher and coach, supporting his students and their families to navigate difficulty. He finds the analytical mathematical rational side of his brain a positive complement to the often more open less tangible therapeutic exploration.
Tom is looking forward to working with clients from all backgrounds, and is particularly suited to working with with young men who are struggling with some of the timeless difficult aspect of the masculine experience, females in their middle years who are grappling with the difficult family roles with which they are often tasked, and working with males in their middle or later years who may be skeptical of therapy in general but could potentially be receptive to a more analytical mode of description/expression coming from a relatable mentality.
