Therapists in Sunderland, MA

We all deserve to live our lives as fully and authentically as we can, and therapy can be a great support in that. I aim to create an open and safe space in which you can explore the patterns, behaviors, and beliefs that you may feel stuck in, and that are no longer serving you. As we build a trusting, supportive, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship, we’ll work together to identify concrete goals and utilize evidence-based practices to achieve them.

I take an affirming, collaborative, strengths based, trauma informed approach to therapy. My lens is grounded in the understanding that life experiences and ways of navigating distress are dependent on one’s identities, internal and external environments, and social and cultural ecosystems. I utilize a breadth of relationally informed psychodynamic approaches to support clients. Although my therapeutic style is eclectic, integrative, and flexible, it is rooted in a psychodynamic theoretical orientation with a trauma informed lens, grounded in attachment theories and framed by social justice.

I am the founding executive director/owner of Aeon Counseling & Consulting, a company that empowers individuals and organizations to achieve their missions. I have nurtured my clinical practice independently with Spanish speaking populations for more than a decade and I believe in an approach that is ruthlessly compassionate.

Deeply passionate about social justice and facilitating and guiding positive change and development in the lives of others, I am thrilled to connect with you as you begin your journey inward. Healing is truly the risk of showing up for yourself and your resistance to temptation to go back to unsilenced needs, numbing out, disconnection, and erasure. As a black, gender non-binary Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I have a personal stake and insight into the work I do. My clinical practice aims to empower and heal individuals, families & communities through therapy, consulting, case management, training, & community outreach.

I am passionate about working with clients in the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as supporting those who are newly exploring their gender and/or sexual identities. I also enjoy working with clients who are on the Autism Spectrum and clients with visible and invisible disabilities. My other clinical focuses include trauma and working with clients with dissociative disorders.

Are you a parent of a child who is struggling? Do you feel like you have to do it all? You don’t have to do this alone. Humans develop in relationship to others, and we heal that way too. My focus is on childrens’ relationships with their caregivers - from processing challenging life events to managing hard feelings. The children I work with may be struggling with worry about friendships and family relationships, challenges with big emotions, doubts about their worth or appearance, academic difficulties, or navigating grief and loss. I support children in navigating these and many other challenging realities of growing up.

Do you think you may have ADHD or Autism? Have you struggled to assert boundaries at work, with family, & partners? Have you felt curious about exploring different pronouns and gender identity?

Goals to get a diagnosis for your disability & curious about medication, goals to reevaluate your relationship with cannabis/alcohol. You may feel shame & anger about your childhood & the way your parents handled your behavior.

Hi, I’m a clinical psychologist working both virtually and in my office in Cambridge. Most people find me to be friendly, and feel at ease in my presence.

Greetings. Accepting referrals in late Spring of 2024.

My services are tailored to individuals struggling with a variety of mental health disorders (depression, anxiety, panic, mood disorder) and substance abuse issues. I work with all populations and provide home based therapy and outreach-- to the elderly-- and those diagnosed with complicated medical issues. My services are geared toward assessing one's baseline and identifying specific strengths, coping, limitations, vulnerabilities and grounding skills. I also incorporate the spiritual element of healing--which fosters personal growth for recovery.

I focus on building a trusting relationship through empathy, caring, and compassion. In my practice I incorporate aspects of relational and psychodynamic approaches, including mindfulness and an awareness of the mind/body connection, to facilitate change and promote healing. I honor each individual's uniqueness, diversity, and cultural influences, and use these to guide me as a clinician to provide support, identify existing strengths, and work towards health, well-being, and happiness.

**TELEHEALTH OFFERED!** With warmth, kindness and seriousness, we work with children, adults, couples and adolescents to manage the often profound stresses of marriage/relationships, work/school and identity. We work to help clients better understand their own histories, and how past hurt, trauma or turmoil can impact their current relationships. In our private practice, we work with people to strengthen their resilience and identify strategies for coping.

I have worked to improve lives which is my mission. I have work with almost every ethnic group. I encourage clients to engage in a dialogue with me about their clinical concerns. It is important that clients feel comfortable in sessions and safe to express their concerns.

I have been working with young people and families for over 31 years in both community and school settings. During this time, I have learned so much from the many people I have worked with. I’ve witnessed first hand that we can all change, grow, and ultimately feel better through positive connection with others. During sessions, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment by listening and supporting my clients.
