Since then, I've had the privilege of working with clients of all ages, offering individual and family therapy as well as parenting coaching.
Hi! I'm Abolee, a therapist at Mountain View Therapy. I believe that we all make meaning of our lives through telling stories about who we are and how the world perceives us. Sometimes our stories paint pictures that connect us with happiness and excitement, but other times our stories are taken over by problems in our lives, such as fear, anxiety or depression. Oftentimes these problems gain power through the support of restrictive cultural discourses and societal norms. Through Narrative Therapy, I strive to help my clients deconstruct these discourses to reclaim their stories and empower them to lead the lives they envision.

I work with women during pregnancy and postpartum, and people coping with parenting, elder caregiving, or grief.
Sometimes overwhelming challenges or changes can feel as though they’ve taken over our lives. All too often, rather than seeking the compassionate care we deserve, we try to bear the weight of our circumstances alone, which can lead to compounding feelings of self-doubt, fear, and isolation. I draw from a broad range of therapies to help heal the parts of you that are in pain. My integrative approach draws from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, Attachment Theory, Polyvagal Theory and Motivational Interviewing. With these proven methodologies in my toolkit, I collaborate with you to make meaningful change.

Hi, I'm Bailey! I've been in the social work field for over 15 years, and I am a co-founder of Mountain View Therapy. Christina Peterson and I created this virtual group practice based in the principles of Narrative Therapy. We believe that meaning-making through stories shapes lives, relationships and communities. Our practice hopes to use this knowledge to help the people we serve uncover the stories that support their preferred lives. Although I am not currently accepting new clients myself, we have recently expanded and several of our clinicians have immediate availability!

I work alongside people and organizations to achieve their dreams of change, growth and connection with themselves, with others and also with their place in the world. As Einstein said, "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." Let's get creative (and maybe outdoors?) to unpack more helpful ways of thinking and doing and being human. If you're at the cusp of a life change, figuring out relationships, desire more calm and connection, want to learn new skills, or just hold curiosity about who you are and can be, then let's connect.

I help identify and achieve goals while making a connection and developing positive growth and well-being. I enjoy working with adults of all ages, couples, and families.

Effective therapy creates meaningful, lasting, joyful change. As your therapist I can help you resolve the inner and outer conflicts that create pain and exhaustion. Life brings unchosen experiences. Sometimes we feel hurt, scared, or deeply alone. Sometimes what happens seems too big to manage. For 25+ years I have had the privilege of helping people learn to live as their "best self," able to manage their moods, thoughts and situations with compassion and skill, to make changes to reach their goals, and to find happiness. I have also had the honor of helping couples and families move from hurtful interactions to healthy loving relationships.

Hello my name is Jasmin. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) and have my doctorate in counseling and psychology. My goal is to partner with clients, build strong therapeutic relationships, and empower people to navigate the challenges of life. Connection is at the heart of my work and is the foundation for interventions.

I believe in the power of talking and the therapeutic relationship to help my clients better understand their inner worlds and cope with the complicated realities of life. Together, we strive to draw meaningful connections that can ultimately lead to personal fulfillment and successful relationships. My work is informed by psychodynamic concepts — exploring how the unconscious and early experiences may impact one's emotions and relationship dynamics. I emphasize collaboration and open dialogue about our process together, and use a social justice lens to acknowledge the ways in which the socio-political context impacts experience.

I provide a safe, warm, and relationally based space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and concerns. My style is grounded, gentle, and welcoming. Through compassionately listening to my clients and validating their experience I aim to empower them to better understand and comfort themselves so they can ultimately thrive in their lives independent of therapy.

For 10 years I’ve been part of the Harvard Medical School system, first as a trainee, now as faculty member. I'm trained primarily in psychodynamic therapy, but principles/interventions from other paradigms also inform my work. Ultimately, the nature of therapy depends on the patient and their goals. For this reason, the course of therapy is hard to describe, but it seems only to work amidst empathy, respect, and compassion, not to mention humor (sometimes life can only be laughed at). This is a perspective I lay out in some detail in a new two-volume book, published by Routledge, titled, "A Humane Vision of Clinical Psychology."

Reaching out for support can be difficult, but it can also be the first step on a journey of healing, discovery, wellness, and care for yourself. I’m glad you’re here! I have provided individual therapy to adults, young adults, adolescents, and new parents for over twenty years and enjoy supporting others in learning about themselves, developing adaptive ways to manage distress, and feeling more connected to their experiences. Humans have a natural capacity for healing and growth; and through our work together, I support clients in exploring “stuck” places and living a more authentic, integrated life.
