Providing statewide telehealth. Mental health issues are at an all time high. It's ok to ask for help. Please don't struggle alone. Dr. Chelmow has over 30 years in the mental health field - focusing on work, family, education, financial & social problems to quickly help reduce anxiety, depression, family issues & substance abuse. He has worked as a business executive & in governance. He has taught at Harvard Medical School, the University of Massachusetts, Cambridge College & Springfield College & written many articles on health care. He provides training to business on difficult work situations, stigma & multiculturalism.
He is writing a book on Human Rights. Other specialties: Couples therapy, PTSD, grief, parenting issues, elder & disability care. I specialize in providing immediate solutions to reduce the impact of your troubles & concerns. Our time involves having a shared conversation - not talking "at you" or "down to you". We address problems head-on together.
I believe in compassionate care w/ some good humor. You should finish sessions feeling better & seeing more options for your life. Our work establishes a deep trust w/ the highest degree of honesty. This is a safe place to explore open & hidden feelings & changing ideas. I believe in discussing social issues, our beliefs, & current events.
