Hello! I'm glad you're here. I know how hard it can be to ask for help and start something new. I firmly believe your experience is unique and your treatment should be, too. Therapy is not only for navigating challenging experiences and feelings, but for celebrating growth and change. My clients learn about themselves in meaningful ways depending on what works best for them as we collaborate on their goals. It's an honor for me to guide clients in their therapeutic work, and my personal approach is authentic and empathetic while being down-to-earth and personable.

Currently our pre licensed therapist is taking on new clients and cannot take insurance at this time. Her sessions are at a discounted rate! Please send an email to our office if you are looking to start therapy and feel our areas of focus match your needs.

I've been practicing for 12+ years and in recent years have realized that I love working with individual women 15+yo, so I began catering my practice ONLY to this population! Please check out my website - I hope it will answer many of your questions, but please reach out to me by phone or email with any additional questions. Also, though you can book an appointment directly through my website and I try to keep those options updated, please contact me if you'd like to make an appointment but none of the times listed work for you. This has been an incredibly difficulty time dealing with world/US events in addition to school and life transitions and I'd be glad to help you navigate whatever areas of life are bringing you to counseling at this time.

Hello! My name is Allisha, and I am a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping women and non-binary individuals navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in supporting clients dealing with anxiety, trauma, family concerns, better understanding themselves, relationships and building effective tools. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, while gently challenging maladaptive thoughts to foster growth and healing. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to explore their emotions, including uncovering inner childhood experiences that shape their reactions and actions today. Using evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR , I aim to provide practical tools and insights to help you overcome obstacles and achieve emotional well-being. Together, we can work toward your goals and create positive, lasting changes. I look forward to connecting with you!

The most important part of therapy is building a good rapport with the individual to create a safe and comfortable space. Therapy isn't always easy and neither is the decision to find a therapist; working to ensure clients are comfortable with me and helping them to identify their goals so that the treatment trajectory is predictable, but allows for space to talk about day to day events, if needed. Lastly, ensuring client and therapist personalities align is important as it only enhances the sense of safety and the capacity for positive rapport growth. There is no one intervention that is best for one person. Therefore, I operate with an eclectic combination and knowledge of multiple interventions and techniques as a way to provide the best and most effective strength based and unique treatment. Treatment interventions are individualized in order to align with the identified treatment plan and goals. Individuals have experienced a multitude of events throughout their lives that connect to and impact their capacity to function as they wish within the world today. One persons experiences are never compared or judged; everyone is always doing the best they can in those moments and I want to work with them to help increase what their best looks or feels like.

My name is Emily and I am a practicing psychotherapist with a passion for holistic healing and empowering you to live a life you love.

I am trained in CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness practices. I'll follow your lead throughout this process. You are the expert in your life. I love what I do, and I take my job to help you grow very seriously. We're in this together. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in psychology and art at Connecticut College before obtaining my Masters from Columbia University in counseling psychology. I trained individually with Harvard's meditation advisor. I've also taught and engaged in psychological research investigating mood, sleep, human development, and the nature of the therapeutic relationship.

I view therapy not only as a means of reducing emotional distress but also as an approach to personal growth. However, I believe that therapy should not be a way of life and I therefore support clients in developing concrete skills, with emphasis on working with emotions: promoting a better understanding of emotions and emotion regulation. I view therapy as a collaborative process of exploration. I bring to this process an attitude of compassionate curiosity and non-judgment. I also draw on my own bi-cultural experience - I was born and raised in Prague, Czech Republic. I practice emotion-focused therapy, which emphasizes the positive, adaptive roles of emotions. Sometimes, however, due to stress, trauma or adverse life events, emotions can become a source of distress. Through empathic, collaborative exploration I help my clients identify their authentic emotional needs and develop strategies for managing and regulating distressing emotions. If you are located in Western Mass (Pioneer Valley) I also offer walking therapy and animal assisted therapy. Therapy is my 2nd career. My PhD is in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) and my therapeutic work is informed by 25+ years of research in AI and cognitive & affective science. I am thus very familiar with academic environments and draw on this knowledge when working with students, both undergraduate and graduate.

I work with college students navigating stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions. I take a supportive, collaborative approach that focuses on helping students understand their emotions, identify patterns, and develop practical coping skills that can be used both in and outside of sessions. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel comfortable showing up as you are—no pressure to have everything figured out.

Hello, I am a licensed LGBTQ therapist. I offer individual therapy via telehealth or in person. I have prior experience working extensively with college students during the pandemic. During therapy sessions, I focus on building a strong relationship with my clients as I believe once a relationship is established life starts to get better simply because you aren't alone. I also rely strongly on CBT treatment and trauma-informed treatment. I have a great sense of humor. I treat ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD and substance abuse to name a few. If you are hurting and looking for someone to trust your inner thoughts and feelings with, i am your person. Thanks for the interest, Lionda

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over a decade of experience in the field. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and received my Masters in Clinical Social Work from Fordham Graduate School of Social Service. My work is enriched by advanced trainings and diverse practice I utilize evidence based practices, including psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy, while also drawing upon my holistic education, trainings, and certifications; some examples include mind-body healing techniques, emotional freedom technique-tapping, meditation, and teen/adult yoga and mindfulness. I primarily work with women and young adults (18+) coping with anxiety, depression, life transitions, mood fluctuations,relationship issues, ADHD/executive functioning, and highly sensitive persons/empaths. Some common issues I treat are the following but not limited to: - anxiety and trouble relaxing - overthinking - people pleasing - self-doubt - absorbing and feeling emotions deeply/ identifies as an empath or highly sensitive person - imposter syndrome - overwhelm/burnout - procrastination or feeling stuck - comparison trap - elevated stress - sleep disturbance - panic attacks - procrastination - health anxiety - body image/body dysmorphia Ultimately, I believe the human spirit is incredibly strong, resilient and capable of achieving personal growth and healing.

I am committed to empowering college students as they navigate the complexities of college life. My treatment approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally sensitive. I provide students with the tools needed to prioritize their mental well-being and thrive academically, socially, and personally.

Do you find yourself stuck, or struggling somehow? I believe that people are doing the best they can, with the experiences and knowledge that they have. Sometimes, however, life throws so much at you that it overwhelms your ability to cope, and you might find yourself on a website like this one, saying, "maybe I need a therapist?" Whether you know exactly what's wrong (like a challenging relationship or choosing a major, or a traumatic experience), or you just have a sense that college somehow isn't what you had in mind (worried, sad, or unfulfilled all the time), then therapy can help. I can help. Please visit my website to find the Matching Questionnaire to get started.

Are you feeling pressure to perform in the classroom, on the field/court/rink, in the studio/on stage, or any other extracurricular? Are you struggling to figure out what direction to go in academically or professionally? Are you feeling tied down from your past or worried about the impending future? Are you dealing with current, here-and-now distress? These stressors and uncertainties can be overwhelming and therapy is the right place to explore them, cultivate insight around them, and develop ways to overcome. Therapy is a tool to support you in accepting the things you can't change and building capacity to effectively change the things that you can- it's a balancing act. Life is too short to spend our time suffering unnecessarily or spinning our wheels trying to effect change. If you are reading this, you are probably already responding to a felt need for support- this is a good thing! Now it's time to do one of the hardest parts- get started. My approach is client-centered, collaborative, goal-directed, and guided by on-going feedback. I balance compassionate, non-judgmental support with encouragement to take thoughtful, measured risks- helping clients build confidence in their capacity to tolerate, move through, heal, and grow from life’s challenges. If you feel that now is the time, I'd love to hear from you and I'd be happy to set up a consultation call to figure out if we'd be a good fit. Please reach out!

Were you adultified as a child? Do you struggle with people pleasing and setting healthy boundaries? Have you begun to see ways trauma is ruling your life? You have come to the right place! We will work together to help you gain skills to manage your emotions, while also working on the root issues leading to the struggles of connection and regulation. It is possible for you to feel safe, trust yourself, and feel proud of who you are. Reach out today and we will begin this journey together. I work holistically and we will move at your speed, so you feel in control and can build trust before delving in. I am a non-judgemental, unpretentious therapist that will both unwaveringly sit with you in your pain, and also lovingly call you on your stuff. If this sounds good, then I might be a great fit for you. Send me an email so we can find out! I am queer and passionate about my LGBTQIA+ community. I am actively anti-oppressive and anti-racist. I am body positive and support Fat liberation. This means I will respect your pronouns, I see how structural oppression impacts mental health, and that therapy alone will not create the world we want to live in, and yet therapy can and does change lives.

We all go through phases in life. Some days are sunny and some others with a lot of rain and storm. Anxiety, depression,life transitions,pre-postpartum anxiety&depression, difficulty focusing, and relationship problems with loved ones and/or in a professional setting are only a few of the problems every person deals in their life at some point. Even though they are part of our nature, these symptoms could be very overwhelming. I am trained in talk therapy which focuses on resolving deeper issues, to understand one’s patterns and character, relief symptoms and improve interpersonal relationships. Every person is unique, so are their needs and preferences. We will work together to make your journey more meaningful and free from suffering. I take your financial situation into consideration. I have a sliding scale which makes therapy affordable and available to everyone! Send me an email, you don’t need to deal with this alone!

Your present need not be your future! Life isn’t always easy. Today you may be anxious, depressed, stuck, overwhelmed, flunking out, and/or obsessed. Tomorrow can be different. The path to a better future may involve courageously exploring emotions or it may involve learning and practicing new habits or strategies. Sometimes little changes cause dramatic results. My specialty is working with you to determine what will work best for you. To this task I bring great depth and breadth of experience. I was actually a college dropout before I became a Clinical Psychologist and Neuropsychologist after first becoming an Educational & Career Counselor & then applying my knowledge & skills on myself. I’ve been in private practice as a therapist for over 30 years, have consulted to hospitals for decades as a Clinical Neuropsychologist, taught the graduate course Neuropsychology to psychology doctoral students for 18 years, created the graduate course Nutrition, Brain and Behavior, provided lectures on neuropsychology for medical students and residents through Harvard Medical School’s Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital and created many continuing education courses for psychologists and lectured college counselors nationwide on improving college performance. I’ve done thousands of assessments encompassing ADHD, learning disability, autism, memory disorders, executive dysfunction, anxiety disorders and depression, yet, despite this I do not think in terms of these labels. Most sessions begin with screening not to assign a diagnosis but determination of the type of psychotherapy or lifestyle changes with which you are likely to feel most comfortable. Take the first step towards a better tomorrow.

You are smart and capable but are struggling right now. Emotions are coming up that are uncomfortable and are making the life you want to live just harder. Whether it's old stuff like self-esteem or new stuff like grief or cultural adjustment, I work with you to help you get back on a healthier and happier path. I work with you in a very active yet nurturing manner. My style is direct, compassionate, yet a bit playful at times. :) You are unique and every therapist is not a perfect match for everyone. Due to that, I give a free 50-minute consultation prior to us committing to work together. Two things to know about my practice is that I am online only and that I am not on insurance panels (if you have out-of-network benefits, that might help with the cost). If you think we might be a good match, check out my website and then reach out for a consultation. :)
