Therapists in Waltham, MA

Accepting new clients! Colorful Resilience LLC is a Queer Afro-Latina owned mental health group practice providing services -primarily, but not exclusively- to the BIPOC, LGBTQ+, first generation and immigrant communities. Our clinicians are proud representatives or unapologetic allies of all the communities we serve.

Welcome! I offer clinical treatment to people experiencing trauma-related disorders, mood disorders, & issues of identity (race, gender, sexuality, culture). Traumatic experiences have a way of shackling themselves to the body, whether they are accumulated over time or single incidents which compromised our safety. We seek to protect ourselves from a world that failed to protect us, often coping in ways that hurt in the long run. In our work together we will identify sources of pain, the impact they have on your life, & determine ways to reclaim power so that your body becomes a place of safety rather than a site of trauma.

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 a clinical social worker with advanced training in human sexuality. I assist clients in gaining insights about gender, sexuality and/or relationships. For example, I can help in healing from sexual harm, improve sexual functioning, address out-of-control sexual behavior, and help explore challenges related to sexuality and ability. I can help you live authentically within intimate relationships (inclusive of non-monogamy), and explore the development of sexual attraction and gender identity over the life course. I help many people heal from sexual harm and live more authentic lives from a holistic perspective.

I see clients virtually in California and Florida and in person in western Ma. People enter my therapy practice for all sorts of reasons. You may be at an impasse or a crossroads due to the loss of a relationship, a big life decision or general anxiety that you can no longer bear on your own. You may be suffering from the wounds of homophobia, transphobia, racism, white supremacy and patriarchy, on top of other traumas and early childhood wounds. Regardless, I seek to offer a safe space for you to access a deeper understanding of yourself and your underlying needs and motives, as well as a personal sense of freedom and empowerment.

Do you struggle with imposter syndrome, coping with traumatic events, difficulties developing a strong sense of self or managing relationships? Maybe you have been experiencing depression, anxiety or distress. Wherever you are in your journey, you are worthy of processing in a space where all aspects of you are met with acceptance, curiosity, and empowerment. As a queer, mixed-race, neurodivergent, & Latinx clinician I support individuals who are struggling to accept themselves, or may be learning to accept or better understand more about who they are.

I hold the understanding that all people have within themselves the wisdom and strength necessary to heal, and I believe that entering into a supportive and respectful therapeutic relationship can help these strengths and awarenesses emerge, develop, and grow. I enjoy working with people who desire a more peaceful and enjoyable life.

Hello! Welcome! I'm Becs, a non-monogamous, queer and non-binary therapist who specializes in providing therapy to queer, gender expansive, kinky, and polyamorous and non-monogamous couples, dyads and polycules. I also specialize in working with stepparents, parents, and caregivers in non-nuclear family structures. Most couples begin therapy with me because they feel stuck in unhelpful patterns of communicating, they struggle to feel understood or supported in their relationship, and they want to navigate conflict and challenging emotions with greater ease.

I recognize that somatic and body-based approaches to therapy can facilitate your journey towards healing in a deep and profound way. If you want to explore alternatives to traditional talk therapy techniques, then I want to work with you.

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.

I provide individual therapy with adults who are ready for change. This may be dealing with issues like ruminating thoughts, anxiety attacks, disassociation, flashbacks, obsessions and compulsions, triggers and cognitive distortions Etc. I specialize in anxiety/panic, PTSD, CPTSD, depression, DID, schizophrenia, substance abuse, and LGBTQIA+-related issues as well as many other conditions.

I am here to listen, I want to learn about you and what you bring to the table. Clients I often work with are looking for a therapist to assist with theraputic self expression, Art Therapy, LGBTQIA+ issues and resources, Gender affirmation, Grief processing, Trauma treatment, Cognitive Behavioral Therapies and coping skill development. My clients often struggle with anxiety, depression, self harm, communication or relationship issues, disorganized thinking, or just finding and expressing their authentic selves.
