I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in diagnostic assessments and evaluations and psychotherapy. Within our practice, I supervise graduate level trainees who provide individual psychotherapy and assessment. We assess clients with a diverse range of clinical difficulties (e.g., Autism Spectrum, developmental/learning disabilities, psychiatric conditions, traumatic brain injury, ). As a clinician, my overarching goals are to help clients and their families assess for diagnoses that will inform treatment and advocate for supportive accommodations and/or services. I approach clinical work from a multicultural perspective and am strongly oriented with a humanistic, person-centered framework. Our clinicians bring experience, expertise and a team approach to diagnosing and treating. If an adult needs to see more than one clinician (e.g., individual, couples work), we work together to provide coordinated, comprehensive care.
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who specializes in mental health treatment for adults, college students, and youth of all ages. For over ten years I have worked in the mental health field throughout New England. Since obtaining my masters in Social Work, I have worked in various settings such as residential treatment facilities, community based work, inpatient hospital settings, schools and colleges. I have experience running groups, individual therapy, family therapy, training and supervising. I believe in a client centered approach, working to find the treatment that will empower individual growth and success. I have extensive experience and training in trauma informed care, Sensory Motor Arousal Regulation Therapy, CPI and ARC. I have in-depth experience working with individuals whom have suffered from Trauma and PTSD, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Co-occurring disorders, navigating transitions and identity formation. I believe in a holistic, creative, and thoughtful approach to care. I believe the client's are the expert of themselves, while helping to support and explore personal goals and true sense of self. Together we will build self-awareness of strengths, abilities, manage conflict resolution and communication, and learn new skills to improve your overall quality of life. I have a strong appreciation for the arts, nature, and constantly learning from the world around me. I aim to break the stigma of mental health and challenge societal norms and expectations.
You were sexually assaulted or experienced a disturbing sexual encounter. Now you feel jittery & anxious. Sometimes you have panic attacks. You can’t stop thinking about what happened and try really hard to avoid any reminders of it. You may feel really confused about how to label the experience and wonder if it was partly your fault. You have nightmares, trouble with intimacy, and are concerned you’re now permanently damaged or broken. It is possible to heal. You can feel relaxed again, get pleasure from intimacy, and feel good in your body. I am Rachel Stanton (she/her) and I use treatments like EMDR & Progressive Counting to help you process what happened in small, manageable chunks. These techniques are known for being more efficient and effective than regular talk therapy. Please go to my website CounselinginBoston.com to learn more about these techniques and the services I offer.
Hi! I'm a queer, trans, white, non-binary clinical social worker who has been in practice for over ten years. I love working with young adults and adults around issues concerning identity, family, relationships and systems. I use a social justice lens inclusive of healthy bodies at any size and ability, as well as socio-economics, race and ethnicity.
My passion is working with people who are beginning to realize they feel exhausted and overwhelmed, and think it may be because of patterns of people-pleasing and perfectionism. They are beginning to realize that their drive to be high-achieving might be fueled by low self-esteem. They are performing well in many aspects of life, but they still don’t feel good enough. I also have a passion for working with adult children of emotionally dysfunctional families, who realize that current relationship stress may stem from the stressful family environment they grew up in.

I will challenge you to step out of your comfort zone and try different things. I look forward to joining you in your journey!

I provide a detailed assessment and really try to include my clients in the decision-making process.

Life pulls us in a lot of different directions, and it can be exhausting. Yet beneath this is a quiet invitation. An invitation to slow down. To reconnect. To breathe deeply and remember who you are. To let your feet find the ground again. And your heart find rest. It's not about fixing everything all at once. It’s about turning gently toward yourself, with curiosity and compassion, and asking: What do I need right now? What is my body telling me? What is my heart longing for? I'd love to help. I'm a licensed therapist specializing in working with young and early adults (18-39). I started my practice because I care deeply about helping people connect with who they are and what they want for their life. Together, we’ll help you nurture a healthy relationship with yourself, make sense of how the past has shaped you, and build a meaningful future. I offer individual therapy to clients across Massachusetts via Telehealth, with in-person sessions coming soon. If you’d like to learn more or schedule a free 30-minute consultation, just click the button—I’d love to connect with you!
Hello. My practice is home based and I have a small dog that will greet you when you arrive. I’ve been in practice for 18 years.

Welcome! I offer clinical treatment to people experiencing trauma, mood disorders, & issues of identity (race, gender, sexuality, culture). I am South Asian, queer, and genderqueer (they/them). I am also an artist, and happy to incorporate creativity into our work together. No pressure, though! Traumatic experiences have a way of shackling themselves to the body, whether they are accumulated over time or single incidents which compromised our safety. We seek to protect ourselves from a world that has failed to protect us, often coping in ways that hurt in the long run. In our work together we will identify sources of pain, the impact they have on your life, & determine ways to reclaim power so that your body becomes a place of safety rather than a site of trauma. Come as you are. My goal is to be both a gentle witness and an ally, helping you to find & stand in your power, identifying disparities & restoring balance in your life. I believe you are here because you are ready to value & give yourself a chance to shape your future with your own hands. I couldn't be more hopeful for you.
