I love to work with clients from any and all backgrounds. I specialize in helping people deal with trauma and its aftermath. I work well with people who have been managing their trauma for a long time, sometimes without any help, but who suddenly decide they really want to overcome their trauma and start living the life they want. Don't be shy to come into therapy for the first time, or for the fiftieth, there is always something new and meaningful to be discovered in therapy.

Do you need a change? Trying to get back on track or go beyond where you have been? I am a cross-cultural and bilingual (Spanish-English) therapist who strives to provide specific skills to unique backgrounds and situations. Do you feel misunderstood, devalued or excluded? Do you have enough emotional supports? Are you culturally different, dealing with more than one culture or ethnicity? Do you want to enhance your performance and learn to be more effective in a cross-cultural environment? My aim is to create a welcoming and non-judgmental environment to explore and actively pursue your emotional, personal, and professional growth.

Currently accepting new clients - evening availability (April 2024). Cora is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Massachusetts who has several years of diverse experience partnering with children, families and adults seeking help with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, goal-oriented work, self-esteem challenges, major life transitions, and trauma related issues.

Cora completed her BA in Psychology and her MA in Clinical Psychology from Assumption College.

We - as humans - at times get anxious, sad or stuck. Major life transitions, such as life stage or relationship changes, career or identity crises, or significant loss, can leave us questioning ourselves as well as our sense of direction and purpose. On the other hand, we can long for change but don't know how to create it, leaving us feeling stagnant or trapped. I combine an actively curious, accepting and collaborative approach with a secure therapeutic framework to help my clients navigate change and live life with more vitality, meaning and satisfaction.

William Arthur Ward once said, "We can choose to throw stones, to stumble on them, to climb over them, or to build with them." The passion I carry for the therapeutic process is not only founded on my training and education but also my personal experience. I have faith in one's capacity for growth that comes from the willingness to be honest and courage to face difficult issues. In this life we will encounter many stones in our path. It is up to each individual to choose what they will do with them.

As a licensed mental health counselor and a registered art therapist, I am passionate about utilizing art as a tool in treatment to nurture and validate the emotional experience of my clients. I have found art therapy to be especially effective when working through trauma. I have a heart for children and have extensive experience working with children and teens across the developmental spectrum through a wide array of therapeutic modalities, including art and play therapy.

Congratulations on taking this first step in reaching out for help! I have 10 years of clinical experience working in the mental health field. I am excited about helping executives and professionals navigate stressful life transitions, address interpersonal conflict, and cope with professional burnout. I empower my clients to seek meaning and fulfillment. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing interventions to help my clients explore their next steps and make positive changes in their lives. I provide my clients with empathy, validation, and unconditional positive regard.

I am a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of experience providing psychotherapy to adults, couples, families and adolescents struggling with a range of interpersonal and emotional issues. My approach is gentle and compassionate and focuses on active listening, problem solving, coping skills training and gaining insight into how past experiences influence the present.

We all long for our experiences, feelings, and needs to be seen, recognized, and honored. I bring to our work deep respect for you and/or your child’s concerns and suffering. I place the therapeutic relationship at the heart of our work, which I approach with curiosity and empathy. I am most interested in what your unique experience is, and I aim to listen deeply. A safe-enough space will help us to transform your patterns of experience that interfere with your ability to be compassionate with yourself, to build meaningful relationships, and to work and play creatively, in other words, to live a fulfilling life.

As a Latina immigrant and queer woman of color, I use a social justice-focused, anti-oppression approach to promote an affirming environment where clients can reconnect with their strengths and lineages. I work with clients on healing life experiences in the context of intergenerational trauma and systems of oppression. I specialize in working with BIPOC and LGBTQ+ clients, immigrants and children of immigrants, people with mixed racial or cultural backgrounds, and clients of all identities interested in working to end oppression.

I practice from a strengths-based, whole-person wellness perspective. I aspire to help my clients define, understand, and enhance their innate abilities to meet and work through the challenges that inevitably arise in each of our lives. I draw from my experience working in wilderness therapy, outpatient clinic, and in-home intensive therapy to bring a well-rounded approach, full of creativity to every session. I specialize my work towards clients who are looking to unlock their full potential while seeking connection and an improved understanding of self.

Experiencing Anxiety & symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be an isolating and confusing struggle. This disorder commonly gets in the way of individual's lives, affecting their personal relationships, familial relations, social life and even professional life. OCD is a complex disorder that can manifest in several different ways.

Often, a significant source of suffering lies in thoughts and feelings that exist outside of our awareness and have not yet been able to find full expression. Psychotherapy offers the unusual opportunity to be listened to deeply and to learn to listen to ourselves in new ways. Exploring and developing insight into your inner life can lead to change—feeling better about yourself, shifting patterns that have kept you stuck, and developing a greater sense of agency and fulfillment in your life.

For me, becoming a therapist required a commitment to my own growth and healing. This, I think, is the most important thing to know about me. Through the process you are about to engage in, I found work that engages me and allows me to feel more myself. Whether you struggle with existential angst, relational tension, depression, anxiety or the trials of life transition, I will collaborate with you to figure out the best way through...for YOU. Training in the theory and practice of social work, psychoanalysis and yoga inform my approach with individuals and couples.

I can help you navigate struggles and take steps forward when it feels difficult. I work with adults who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and those who are facing difficult decisions and life transitions. My aim is to support you in developing compassion and flexibility in the way you relate to yourself, others, and difficult situations. My approach is collaborative, warm, and non judgmental.

Do you need help getting unstuck? Do you feel paralyzed by mental noise you can't seem to shake. Maybe you feel life is missing something but you can't figure out what. If you're struggling with uncertainty, the endless cycle of "what ifs" or persistent feelings of fear, doubt, and anxiety, I want you to know that there's a better way. While the decision to seek treatment can be daunting, it opens the door to self-preservation and getting your life back. Using proven techniques, we work to change the relationship we have with these thoughts while improving your sense of self and inner wholeness.

I specialize in helping clients who want to address anxiety, depression, relationship issues, cancer, lgbtq identity and self-effectiveness.

Both in-person & Telehealth Telehealth is good for • avoiding traffic • you are homebound for any reason • pregnant / new mother / travel awkward • A student with no time to spare. Why I enjoy Telehealth: I get to know you, your environment, a sense of your life ( I may meet your pets or baby ). To my own surprise Telehealth can feel very personal. If you prefer in-person sessions please indicate in your email. Either way, let's have a phone chat.
