Family Therapy in Boston, MA

I believe "Feeling Good" matters and that it takes both strength and courage to seek out therapy. I am a licensed mental health counselor, who received my master's degree in mental health counseling from The College of Saint Rose in Albany, NY. I have 10+ years of experience working with children, teens, and adults providing both child, individual, and family therapy . Some of my specialty areas include life transitions, relationship/ family issues and dynamics, narcissistic abuse, women's issues, self-worth, LGBTQ+, sexuality, and gender identity, along with grief and loss.

Therapy Lab Kids is a teletherapy practice that offers evidence-based plans (5-16 sessions) targeting mood/anxiety symptoms, sleep problems, family conflict, and disruptive behaviors. Our plans are designed to teach your child, teenager, or family a specific set of skills so you can walk away with emotional health and insight. Starting with an introductory session, an expert will help you establish goals that address your concerns, then initiate the best plan for you.

Perhaps you find it difficult to establish healthy relationships; or despite your commitment and willingness to change, you continue to suffer, feeling anxious, depressed, drifting away from the person you'd like to be. Maybe you feel emotions that you can't name and/or manage. Together we can understand and work with what you are experiencing. I have decades of experience in the field of psychotherapy working with families, couples and individuals, and I specialize in the treatment of trauma using state-of-the-art, evidence-based approaches.

If you are anxious, struggling to focus, overwhelmed by school or work, or frustrated by family , I am trained to help. As a therapist, I can share with you techniques to manage anxiety, overcome past & present challenges, connect more authentically with others, and identify skills that will help you succeed in school, work and life. My job is to listen to you and help you where you feel stuck. I will help you set goals, and provide you with techniques to try in your life. Together, we will find a balance of insights & skills that work for you.

Therapy is the gift of time set aside each week to pause, acknowledge how you’re feeling, and connect with yourself in a deeper way. In a time of unprecedented levels of fear, loss, and loneliness, it’s more important than ever to develop meaningful ways to be present with our emotions and learn new ways to soothe and nurture ourselves in the midst of painful feelings. I specialize in relational psychotherapy, a type of therapy that focuses on the quality of your relationships, both with yourself and with others. I also draw on psychodynamic, family systems, trauma-informed, attachment, social justice and anti-oppressive theories.

Our behavioral health care practice offers services to all people including, low-income, migrant and refugee communities in the greater Boston Area and Springfield, Massachusetts. Our Focus is to provide a cost-effective, quality treatment to wide spectrum of society that may not have access to quality, comprehensive care. Our mission is to provide an opportunity for underserved children, young people, families, and individuals to promote and strengthen their mental, spiritual, and physical health.

While I believe every person is the ultimate expert in themselves, I think therapy provides a powerful opportunity for partnership and guidance. In a safe, nonjudgmental space, people are able to explore new elements of their lives and selves, to identify goals and values, and to examine the ways current patterns are either supporting or hindering those goals. My job as a therapist is to help create that safe space with you, to encourage you along your process of exploration, and to provide reflection and guidance where it may be helpful.

My work is informed by an optimistic belief in people's resiliency and ability to change and grow. I approach therapy as an opportunity for transformation. I work with high functioning, motivated clients who are ready to take a serious look at the direction of their lives and are open to change. In general, I would describe my style as warm, engaging, direct and interactive. I have developed a wide range of specialties from which to draw in order to meet each client's specific needs. After over 28 years, I continue to find the practice of psychotherapy interesting, rewarding, challenging and fun.

Hello! My specialty area is consulting with parents & families with transgender, non-binary, or gender questioning youth. I founded and directed Harbor Camps for transgender youth and was the CEO for 13 years. I have worked with thousands of trans & non-binary youth and their families, and I am now doing consulting with parents to help move them on their journey toward understanding and acceptance.

Depression, anxiety, trouble concentrating, behavioral problems, insomnia, interpersonal conflict, low self-esteem, and flashbacks are just a few symptoms that can be caused by underlying trauma. Most of us have dealt with trauma in our lives. A traumatic event could be one isolated incident, such as a car accident or death in the family . Some individuals have experienced pervasive trauma, such as an ongoing medical procedure or family discord. At Robinson Counseling and Wellness, LLC we have clinicians who been trained to effectively resolve the symptoms of trauma and provide a safe environment for healing.
