Therapists in Holden, MA

Taking that first step is how it all changes. Working together as a team to becoming your ideal self is where change begins. Many express that they are feeling depleted, stressed and stuck in patterns detrimental to their health and overall well-being. They are ready to break free from those dysfunctional patterns and therapy is where we begin.

My goal is to provide an individualized approach in therapy with my clients. I work from a strength-based and collaborative approach to help you be your best self.

Hi, my name is Russell Levine. I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and am accepting all clients. I'm a mental health counselor and am here to support others in problem solving how to function more comfortably in every day life. I am happy to help grapple with environmental/situational factors and/or chronic health conditions and am experienced in doing such.

I enjoy working with individuals of all genders and identities, families and groups on accepting and overcoming obstacles to their fulfillment. My approach is process-oriented, warm, and empathetic, grounded in an attachment-focused perspective. I believe each client is the expert of their experience and the therapeutic relationship is a critical tool for healing and growth. I approach sessions from a place of compassion to increase clients' abilities to create this for themselves.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in both the home and office settings. I have worked in state and private agencies, and am familiar with the importance of working closely within the identified team to ensure comprehensive treatment. I focus on the individual needs of the client and family when developing treatment plans and goals. My experience includes working with individuals and families with emotional and behavioral concerns, trauma, family conflict, substance abuse, mood disorders, and stress. I take a strength-based approach to treatment, and encourage open and honest communication to motivate growth and change.

Life is hard but we can stay strong with support! It takes courage to reach out to a therapist to help you with your life journey. Jenn believes everyone is unique and so there is no “cookie cutter” approach. Her person-centered style allows the client to establish goals and then together work as a “team” to attain growth. There is a wide array of adjustments in life such as leaving home, divorce, parenting, job unhappiness, marital strife, mid-life change, trauma, grief, and aging. Feeling a supportive presence through it all is key!

I provide a confidential, safe, comfortable environment for clients to deal with their problems. I see clients who have difficulties which have just arisen and clients who have issues dating back to their childhoods; sometimes people want help with both kinds of issues. No problem is too large or too small; if it interferes with living your life in a positive, fulfilling way, it is worth solving. My approach is active and I strive to establish a collaborative relationship. I treat many different disorders with a specialty in trauma treatment. PTSD is the most diagnosed condition related to trauma.,

I am part of a group practice called Attention, Behavior and Cognition Psychological Services. www.abcholden.com The person reading this might be an individual or a parent trying to get some help managing mental health symptoms that are impacting their ability to function at home, school, or the community. Feeling the burden and stressors of the world is not an ideal baseline functioning level. Needing a place to be vulnerable, without judgement and unconditional acceptance is not just ideal but a reality within our sessions.

I help parents to feel more comfortable, confident and effective in parenting or advocating for their child.

Are you ready to change? Are you ready to change your relational patterns? Are you finding yourself unhappy, unfulfilled, missing something in your life? Perhaps you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, isolation? I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples and families to support clients identifying and reaching their goals. Therapy can be an opportunity to acknowledge what is not working, learn tools, skills, and strategies to help move your life closer to your preferences. Mindfulness practices, yoga and holistic approaches to health are additional options I offer.

At various times in our lives, we may face unique challenges that can have a lasting impact on a person’s mental health. You don’t have to face these challenges alone. As a licensed mental health clinician working in the field for over 10 years, I understand the importance of having a safe space to explore concerns relating to anxiety, depression and the impact of life stressors. I thrive to support individuals with exploring their problems and empower them to find their own creative solutions.

*New clients, please use email for fastest reply.* Therapy should begin with establishing a trusting and therapeutic relationship, in a relaxing environment, where clients of all ages will feel comfortable, safe & understood (my dog Taffy is my 'co-therapist'!). Although everyone struggles at times during our lives, most of us still reeling from the past few years alone. I believe ALL people have hidden strengths (yes, you too!) that they can use and build upon, while also learning how their past history may still effect their thoughts, actions, and self esteem. Therapy is about insight, encouragement, support, and progress.
