Is anxiety or depression preventing you from living a more fulfilling life? Are you feeling overwhelmed by a major transition? Are you unable to move on from an upsetting or traumatic past experience? I help patients change patterns of behavior that are no longer working, and learn new and more effective ways of coping and engaging with life. I believe that embedded in the painful crises that usually bring individuals and couples to therapy, there are also opportunities for self understanding and mastery that can be discovered and realized in a safe healing relationship.

I work with adults struggling with a wide range of problems. I have training and experience in psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral treatment, and draw on other approaches as needed. I have specialized expertise in the treatment of posttraumatic stress and other problems related to trauma and abuse.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and a published author in the field of traumatic stress. I have worked internationally and have experience treating patients from very diverse backgrounds. I am licensed to provide services in MA, CT, NH and PsyPact states.

Groups

Women's Trauma Group (virtual group)

Hosted by

Michaela Mendelsohn

This is a weekly, virtual, 12-week group where members identify and pursue a personal goal related to their healing from trauma while receiving support and feedback from others. Given the potential for trauma-oriented work to bring up painful feelings, this group is for women with relatively stable life circumstances, some good supports and coping skills for managing symptoms, and not actively self-harming or abusing substances.

Grief Processing Group

Hosted by

Michaela Mendelsohn

We are not meant to grieve alone. The company of others in a welcoming space of openness, curiosity, and care can be a powerful force for navigating the immeasurable pain of grief. This is a closed 10-week group for people who have experienced a loss in the recent or distant past, guided by a therapist who encourages self-reflection, expression, and discussion. The focus is on listening to and honoring one another’s stories rather than advice-giving, and on learning tangible healing practices to support the grieving process.
