Liam Lattrell is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Northampton, MA who specializes in mindfulness, depression, anxiety, relationships, substance use, and addiction.Liam offers compassionate relational based therapy. His approach is to listen, understand, and build a connection that fosters growth within clients. While psychodynamic in nature, he utilizes behavioral therapies, mindfulness, and appropriate humor to help a person feel heard and continue to grow. When working with individuals with depression and/or anxiety, he focuses on their connections with others and spends time helping them get to the root causes. For example, if someone comes in with underlying causes of low self-worth, he helps them explore how this might be related to past and/or current relationships. He utilizes a deep attuned listening and theory based insight to help clients embrace and tap into their own inner resources that will help them cope and take on life’s challenges.Liam believes everyone has the power to heal and grow, and he is there to support clients on this journey. For over eight years, he worked in case management and individual psychotherapy settings helping adults and adolescents find purpose and meaning in their lives. He received his MSW from Smith College. He looks forward to meeting you.Message to clientsLife can be difficult—sometimes, unnecessarily hard. Everyone suffers but not everyone reaches out for help. People cope in a variety of ways to deal with what life throws at them, but sometimes these strategies are unhealthy and act as a barrier to a meaningful life. I can help you better understand yourself and develop effective ways to improve your response to unpleasant feelings and relationship patterns. I believe that asking for help is a courageous first step that shows a willingness to embark on a journey of progress and healing. I meet people where they are at—no matter how far along they are on the healing continuum. I look forward to hearing from you so we can begin to work on your healing process together. I now offer weekend and evening sessions.
