Neuro-Linguistic (NLP) Therapists in Boston, MA
I believe that we all need to have a sense of purpose or meaningfulness in our lives, something that our thoughts, emotions and life experiences contribute to the "heart" of our personalities. The process of healing from the challenges of life begins with a search for truth about our beliefs, habits and relationships. Physical health is affected by our mental health through the complex interactions between the brain and bodily functions.

Not everyone is ready for what I offer...and that’s intentional. I work with a select few individuals and couples, providing a deeply personalized coaching experience that breaks through the limits of traditional methods. My clients come to me when they’re tired of feeling stuck, when ambition and fulfillment no longer align, and when the gap between where they are and where they want to be feels insurmountable. Together, we uncover and dismantle the hidden barriers, rewire patterns, and create lasting transformation. This is about more than solutions - it’s about building a life that feels aligned, powerful, and whole.

Rachel Zavertnik–Parent Success for Bold/ADHD
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, LICSW
Boston, MA 02116
As a mom who has struggled in my own relationship with a bold, spirited, or deeply sensitive child (ages 8-13), I understand how heavy this can feel. When daily life is filled with power struggles, emotional outbursts, or walking on eggshells, it can affect your relationships, confidence, & sense of self. Many parents wonder if a calmer, more connected relationship is possible, one where they feel capable and their child can thrive. Today, many moms feel anxious & uncertain about supporting a child with ADHD, especially when intensity or sensitivity takes over the home. You are not alone!

You wake up anxious. You’re unfulfilled! You try and push through the day, but you’re paralyzed by negative self-talk. “This is a waste of time,” rings in your ears. You continue to put everyone and everything else first. “Why?” you ask. Each day you wonder, “Will I ever be happy? Will I ever have the relationship I want?” Your inner voice harshly reminds you, “Those things are not for you. This is all you’ll ever get.” You’ve played it ‘safe’ all your life, but now you’re worried that you’re running out of time. You know you’re capable of more if you could only get past your own worst enemy – You. website: erinruelltherapy.com

You've been dealing with this for a while. Maybe it's anxiety that keeps returning no matter how much you understand it. Maybe it's sleep that won't improve. Maybe you've done real work on yourself, and yet something underneath is still just... off.
You already know that more willpower or trying to force it isn't the answer. What you haven't done yet is access your subconscious mind, where the pattern actually lives. That's where we work, and where real, lasting change becomes possible.

If you live with anxiety, chronic pain, or IBS — tight chest, headaches, knotted stomach or pain that comes from nowhere — you're not alone. Some are dealing with Lyme disease or PANDAS/PANS, where an underlying infection affects mood and behavior. I can help you understand what's driving your symptoms. Those patterns often show up in relationships too — as conflict, shutting down, or feeling disconnected. I work with individuals and couples navigating these dynamics, helping each person understand their triggers and reactions so they can reconnect, feel more balanced and experience greater intimacy.

How does neuro-linguistic programming work?
A therapist using Neuro-linguistic programming might start by building a strong rapport and gathering information about the client’s objectives and any problem areas. Then the NLP therapist will employ NLP techniques to guide their client toward healthier thoughts and behaviors. Clients will learn how to better manage their moods and hone their communication skills. NLP will conclude with the therapist and client making a plan for how to integrate the positive changes into their daily life in the future.
What are some techniques used in neuro-linguistic programming?
NLP therapists often employ anchoring, so the client begins to automatically associate their trigger with a healthier response. Clients also learn how to reframe a situation to change the way they react to it for the better, and how to replace the negative beliefs that are holding them back. Many NLP clients practice visualization or forming a mental image of themselves attaining their goals. Every NLP therapist will have their own preferred approach with specific techniques that they have found to be helpful for their clients.
How long does neuro-linguistic programming take?
Since neuro-linguistic programming is not regulated, the length of treatment can vary greatly. Some therapists may only use NLP in a single session, while others may employ it over the course of weeks, months, or even years. It depends greatly on the type and severity of the problem being treated, as well as the individual client’s response to NLP treatment.
Is neuro-linguistic programming evidence-based?
While some people may find neuro-linguistic programming helpful, either in therapy or in their career or personal development, the science behind this approach is inconclusive. Most of the available studies are small in scale and have produced mixed results, and the commercial nature of NLP lends itself to conflicts of interest. More research is needed. In the meantime, practitioners must use their best judgment of whether NLP techniques will be helpful in meeting their clients’ individual needs.
