Therapists in Brookline, MA

Currently Accepting New Clients. I work with young people and their families to provide meaningful and lasting change that help improve their wellbeing and success in their lives. I focus on integrative treatment modalities that teach and reinforce skills for emotional and behavioral management, as well as help my clients achieve acceptance and commitment for positive change through effective treatment plans and person-centered approach.

I focus on helping people develop healthy, meaningful, and satisfying lives and relationships. I strive to provide a safe space that allows for the development of a trusting relationship, supporting you as you begin the process of self-reflection and personal growth. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental approach with a collaborative therapeutic style. Treatment is tailored to fit your needs and goals, drawing from a diverse collection of therapeutic modalities. I bring curiosity and humor to the therapy relationship which allows my clients to feel comfortable exploring new aspects of themselves while pursuing their optimal life.

Whether you are seeking support for your child/teen, feeling overwhelmed with a life transition, or finding yourself worrying too much about different things, we can work together to create more balance in your life. Together we will explore unhelpful thoughts, patterns, and behaviors that are keeping you stuck and find new ways of coping with the challenges you are facing. I use a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy with elements of play therapy, CBT, DBT, and family-based treatment to support each client in their own journey.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who works to provide professional therapeutic services to people across Massachusetts. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, and challenging life transitions. I consider it an absolute privilege when someone allows me to be a part of their process. I have a natural curiosity toward people and strive to provide a non-judgmental environment in my practice. I take pride in understanding my client’s needs while providing quality mental health care. My intention is to bring warmth, compassion, and curiosity to the therapeutic space.

I offer a co-ed Relationship Group. Feel free to inquire more about how this kind of therapy can be quite useful. I do Individual, Couples, Family, and Group Therapy. I currently facilitate a Bereavement Group which meets at my Brookline office every Saturday from 2-4pm. I also run groups for substance abuse, depression and anxiety. In addition, I have a lot of experience counseling children of all ages. I am a firm believer in strength-based psychotherapy.

Are you or your teen experiencing anxiety? ADHD, or OCD? Maybe you find yourself stuck in patterns of thinking and behavior that get in the way of relationships, education, work, or personal growth. What if you could have deeper insight and compassion into your internal experiences? What if you could also learn new skills to change behaviors that aren't working for you? We can work together to understand and release what is holding you back and create more ease, meaning, creativity, and possibility for the future.

My goal in therapy is to use empathy, humor, and openness to create a space where you feel safe to express yourself without judgement, accepted for all that you are, and ready to process your experiences with someone who values your wellbeing! My passion lies in working with adolescents, teens, and young adults seeking to work through issues of anxiety, identity development, stress, family conflict, school issues, relationships, transitions, and self-esteem. I also have several years of experience helping athletes with common performance issues such as confidence, focus, motivation, and overcoming injury to perform at their best!

With the right clinician, therapy can give you the freedom to be who you are and who you want to be. Therefore my primary focus to treatment is establishing and strengthening an authentic and collaborative relationship, one that offers a non-judgmental and safe space for healing to occur. I utilize evidence-based practices based in training in multiple modalities of psychotherapy, catered to each individual. Taking into account the multidimensionality of the human experience, I offer both theory and practice towards living a meaningful life, doing the work of self-discovery, and healing with greater perspective and awareness.

At work, you know you’re underpaid, yet still go above and beyond for employers and colleagues who don’t appreciate it. At home, you’re the one expected to manage things and keep up with chores, while your partner only contributes when they’re directly asked. If you have kids, you feel guilty about ever needing a break. Though you think you “should” be able to handle all of this, the cumulative exhaustion you feel from a lifetime of taking on more than you have time or energy for is starting to show. Let me assure you that not only is it okay to admit you’re having a tough time — it’s the first step in actually feeling better.

I specialize in helping people who are struggling with trauma, anxiety, low-self-esteem, or who are coping with behaviors such as disordered eating, self-harm, or substance use. I take a warm, collaborative and holistic approach to help you better understand yourself, un-learn old ways of being, and develop the capacity to manage all that life brings. Together, at a pace you are comfortable with, we can explore places in your life where you feel stuck, and move towards the life you want to live. My goal is to help you find peace with yourself and with your body.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist who works collaboratively with clients to help them overcome challenges and achieve their personal goals. I approach my work as a therapist with empathy, warmth, and humor. I empower my clients to make desired changes in their lives. A successful therapeutic relationship starts with a strong connection between my patient and me. Finding the right fit is the most important piece of that puzzle. Each of us is made up of many strengths which, with the right understanding, can be used to work through our vulnerabilities.

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.

With over a decade of experience in Outpatient Psychiatric clinics, I have witnessed the human capacity to change and adapt to the challenges life delivers. In therapy, my role is to help clients determine their own path through a crisis, develop skills to manage difficult emotions, and support their overall well being. I strive to help clients see more clearly what their needs are and identify coping strategies to meet them. I tailor my approach to match what my clients need, and have extensive training in present-focused, evidence-based treatment modalities (CBT, DBT and ACT).

I am a clinical psychologist with board-certification in clinical neuropsychology. I offer psychotherapy and neuropsychological assessments for adults (18+). Psychotherapy: I specialize in working with adult clients facing challenges related to ADHD, aging, caregiving, and adjustment to medical or neurological diagnosis.

I collaboratively work with clients to develop existing strengths, learn new skills, and pursue what is most important to them.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist at Boston Children's Hospital and an instructor at Harvard Medical School with a small private practice for children, adolescents, and young adults.

I am trained in a variety of evidence-based approaches and treat a range of psychiatric diagnoses, including anxiety, depression, OCD, phobias, and adjustment concerns. Culturally responsive care is my priority, and I welcome patients from all backgrounds.

I believe that peace of mind is possible—for individuals, couples, and their loved ones—even after every other option has failed. I’ve been in practice for more than 30 years and have worked with countless individuals, couples, and families to assess and address a wide range of issues, including relationship and career concerns, major life transitions, chronic health challenges, and problems related to mental health and substance use.

 In my work, I help young adults and adults who are experiencing various difficulties in their lives, including stress, depression, anxiety, family conflicts, and grief.

Hello! I am a clinical psychologist and I work with children, adolescents and adults. Within the context of a warm, supportive relationship, I focus on teaching skills that help clients to develop a sense of confidence in effectively managing their emotions and behavior. My treatment approach is primarily cognitive behavioral but I tailor the treatment to the needs of each client with an emphasis on finding the most evidence-based approach. I am collaborative and offer a lot of encouragement, humor and warmth.

As a therapist, I provide individual, couples and family therapy to adolescents and adults. I work in a collaborative, non-judgmental manner that aims to promote positive change within a person's life. After a comprehensive assessment, I utilize a variety of approaches including psychodynamic (focused on developing insight) and cognitive behavioral (focused on understanding the thoughts and behaviors that shape experience) based on individual need. Through therapy that respects the complexities of each individual's life, I strive for my clients to develop a deep understanding of themselves that will enable long lasting growth.
