I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with nearly 10 years of experience working with complex families and individuals to help them overcome the obstacles in their lives. I’ve worked with a diverse population whose ages ranged from 5 years of age to teens and adults. I’m committed to helping every person get to a better place, then when they first meet me. I know healing takes time, which is why I meet my clients wherever they may be on their journey. My experience includes treating anxiety, depression, anger management, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, as well as low self-esteem, and mood disorders.

My approach to therapy is based upon my experience and training in psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and family system therapies. My focus is on respecting the individual needs of each client. I draw on the optimal therapeutic approach and modality that will best meet the individual goals of each client. I have worked in a variety of settings during my 20+ years as a clinician, and provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families, for a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and relationship stress. I try to help clients be better attuned to their emotional experiences.

Making life changes or healing from different types of pain can be incredibly difficult, and I am here to help guide you through. My goal is to provide each and every one of my clients with a safe and supportive environment where they can explore any issues that are holding them back from living a better life. Let's get you started on the path to better living.

I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy with other treatment modalities to provide a solution-focused, supportive atmosphere for children, adolescents and adults. My goal is to tailor treatment to meet the specific, personal needs and goals of my clients by learning practical strategies and skills through humor and empathy. I enjoy seeing clients gain confidence in their abilities and reach their full potential by better managing their moods and anxieties with current and future stressors. I have over a decade of experience in providing individual, family and couple therapy as well as psychological assessments for all ages.

“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” As a bicultural, bilingual Latina I appreciate individual differences and approach clients with an understanding of and respect for the client's needs and cultural values. I have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field with children, adolescents and adults. My style is individualized to each person and their specific needs. I believe it is a team effort, and the best results come from having someone who is walking beside you through the process. I strive to create a space where those seeking therapy feel safe, heard and respected.

I have been working with families and couples in various configurations and locations since 1972. In addition to being a Licensed Family Therapist, I am also a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, and Nationally Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. I have taught courses in Ethics, Substance Abuse, Sexuality, and other subjects in the Graduate School Of Counseling at UMass/Boston. Primarily, my work is about family and couple relationships. In 2012, I was awarded the Schiller Prize for my work with fathers, daughters, and sexuality by AASECT. I am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, and train therapists.

Emotions are complex entities, fed by our experiences, beliefs, and relationships they can be both difficult to express and understand. For individuals who feel overwhelmed by their emotions compounded by the every-day stressors that life can bring, therapy provides a pathway to enhanced wellbeing. Tackling the misconceptions and stigmas that therapy is a privilege for a select few, my goal is to help put the power of self-awareness into the hands of all individuals through a mental health plan of action with a modern nuance that feels relevant to the realities of today.

What if each member of your home could find happiness? Lower stress? Communicate more effectively? Stop walking on eggshells? Manage their emotions? What if life became a little easier or more bearable, or even enjoyable?! What if the tension was lower? We work with individuals and family units to learn what those unhelpful thinking patterns are and how to change them; how to move away from isolation: change behavior so there are more positive outcomes; take back control of their emotions and their lives; connect more deeply.

(Accepting new clients at our practice!) Everyone deserves the space to grow and to live a thriving life. In our therapy space—we will explore terrains of mountaintop and abyss, reflect on the past, present and future, and witness moments of epiphany, agony, and perhaps transformative insights. Life is an adventurous journey deserving of our attention and time, especially in critical moments such as loss, transitions, and unknowns.

Hello, I am Brandy Allen, LICSW, a dynamic psychotherapist with several years of experience working in healthcare and community settings. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development and Psychology from Howard University and a Master’s of Clinical Social Work degree from Boston University. I am currently pursuing a Doctorate in Social Work from Simmons University. Through clinical and administrative roles, I have provided care to a vast population of underserved individuals from diverse backgrounds experiencing social, intellectual, emotional and mental health challenges.

Accepting NEW clients. Are you experiencing major life changes that you feel you have no control over? Have you experienced a loss through death, divorce or illness? Are you feeling that you cannot manage your responsibilities at home and/or work? Are you finding the aging process to be scary for yourself or a loved one? Are you a caregiver who is feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel that you should be happy but are feeling unfulfilled? Do you wish you could do more but lack motivation, direction or support?

Overwhelmed by workplace challenges and family demands? Overwrought over disappointing relationships? Overextended and unable to find a way to bring balance to your life? A new perspective, new insights, can overcome some of these negative 'overs', and I believe that, as an empathic and well-trained therapist, I may well be able to help.
