ABOUT DR. FORTEITH
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with experience treating anxiety, depression, personal and professional performance issues, self-esteem concerns, and other problems that impact daily life. While I have worked extensively with children and adolescents, my primary focus is individual therapy with teenagers, college-aged young adults, and adults. I run a number of groups and psycho-educational workshops for adults and teenagers. Please see my Treatment & Services page for more information.
​
I have worked in the clinical field for more than 20 years. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Williams College, a Master of Education degree in Mental Health Counseling from Cambridge College, and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from William James College. I have practiced therapy in Counseling Centers at Bentley College, Roger Williams University, and Boston College. My post-graduate work as a Behavior Consultant with the Department of Developmental Services involved clinical treatment of adults with developmental disabilities. I have worked in group practice specializing in the clinical care of children and families and now see individual patients in my solo practice.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
I'm here to listen with compassion and respect, and to help you achieve key insights. In therapy, we’ll work together to resolve current problems by addressing disruptive patterns of thinking and behavior. This process is not always easy, but it can be rewarding and life-changing. I will help you adjust your responses to stressors and provide you with valuable tools to cope with life’s obstacles. I believe the key to enhanced emotional wellness rests within you.
PARENT COACHING
Every parent struggles sometimes with parenting choices, especially when faced with challenging behaviors by their child. Occasionally, even the most informed parents need some guidance. I help parents understand their child's behavior from a different perspective and collaborate to develop the best parenting strategies to address whatever needs their child may have.
WORKSHOPS & GROUPS
Please check back soon for more information about workshops coming later this year!
