I enjoy working with adults and teens looking to clarify goals, work more effectively with challenging emotions, and, using Mary Oliver's eloquent words, help them answer the question "what do you plan to do with your one wild and precious life." I use strength-based approaches to help clients set and achieve goals and boost happiness. Having experience as a school-based therapist and as a parent, I am helpful as a parent coach/mentor/therapist and enjoy working with teens regarding school-related challenges.

If you are reading my profile, life probably isn't going the way you had hoped it would right now. Current issues, past traumas, relationship or work issues can leave you exhausted, take a toll on your ability to be happy or even function on a day to day basis. Maybe life just feels too hard right now. Reaching out for help is the first step towards changing that.
My name is Shari Bennett, a licenced Independant Clinical Social Worker and the owner of Interactions Counseling, a group of 6 highly trained, licensed and very experienced therapists who are here to help. We offer both in person and telehealth sessions.

Sometimes, we just can't do it on our own. I work with people who need some extra support in working through challenges resulting from chronic high stress, past trauma, grief, executive functioning struggles, anxiety and depression. Clients who work most successfully with me are interested in reflection as well as experimenting with new ways of thinking and being. Past clients have described our work as helping them untangle the knots in their brain, or building their sense that they are a valuable person-giving them the confidence to make needed changes.

The way psychotherapy is practiced has a lot to do with the mind set and life experience of the psychologist. I have been in private practice since 1980, and beyond the traditional training for psychologists, I also trained extensively in an approach known as Psychology of Mind, or Health Realization. This is a cognitive approach that is very down-to-earth but rooted in principles akin to those behind meditation, yoga and similar traditions that were developed to enhance optimal human functioning.

I am a clinical psychologist who works with adolescents and young adults experiencing depression, anxiety, self-harm, school challenges, and interpersonal difficulties. In addition to working as a therapist, I hold faculty appointments at Harvard Medical School and McLean Hospital, where I previously worked as a staff psychologist and continue to serve as a supervisor. My experience in these roles enables me to work effectively with young people whose distress is particularly overwhelming and incapacitating.

It is as though a “What if…” reel is running in your mind. You are so exhausted by the second (third and fourth!) guessing of your choices and your interactions with others. Dealing with your anxiety is taking up so much energy. Sometimes you try to avoid the things or situations that are causing your anxiety. Other times you might check in with a friend, partner or parent asking, “Do you think what I did was okay?” Still other times you imagine worse-case scenarios playing out and strategize how you can prevent them. But the worry comes back.

In my 25+ years as a psychologist, I have worked in college mental health, served as a dean of counseling at MIT, and directed a group practice. In the latter role, I've worked with adults and adolescents addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, school and job stress, parenting and other relationship issues, and various life transitions. While I consider myself well grounded in psychological theory, I don't believe that any one school of thought has all the answers: Like most therapists, I draw from multiple orientations, taking care to focus on what best fits a client's needs rather than on preconceived clinical bias.

I specialize in the full arc of transformation - helping you process unresolved pain, change relational patterns, undo aloneness, and remove the blocks and barriers that prevent you from fully inhabiting your life.

Together, we work toward lasting change that is not only understood intellectually, but deeply felt and lived.

In my work as a therapist, my first priority is to establish a comfortable, respectful working relationship that will allow my clients to begin to focus on the often difficult, painful and complex feelings, issues and situations that have brought them to counseling. My role is to listen carefully and thoughtfully, and to help guide and facilitate discussions that will help my clients to grow and change in beneficial ways, to resolve important conflicts and issues, and to reduce the severity of symptoms such as anxiety, depressed mood and difficulty managing anger.
