In working with me there is the possibility of positive change. I will help you have a different outlook on life and support you in your future endeavors. In looking at changes we will look at what obstacles prevents you from reaching your goals and aspirations. In the event that an individuals has experience past trauma we will explore different ways to overcome those obstacles. It is imperative that your past trauma doesn't become a part of your future.

Hello and welcome! My name is Allisia Green, and I have been working in the mental health field for more than 13 years. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to support individuals in a variety of settings including extended day treatment programs, residential programs, school-based services, partial hospitalization programs, and outpatient therapy. These experiences have allowed me to work with individuals from diverse backgrounds and better understand the many ways life challenges can impact emotional wellbeing. I also have specialized experience supporting individuals who have experienced difficult or overwhelming life experiences and understand the ways past experiences can continue to impact emotions, relationships, self-worth, and day-to-day functioning. My approach is trauma-informed, meaning I prioritize safety, trust, emotional regulation, and moving at a pace that feels supportive and manageable for each individual. My approach to therapy is collaborative, empathetic, and person-centered. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered in their healing process. At times, therapy may involve gentle challenge not to be difficult, but to help uncover patterns, explore root causes, and identify meaningful ways to move forward. Life’s challenges can sometimes feel like dead ends, leaving us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next. I believe that with support, insight, and practical tools, difficult experiences can also become opportunities for healing, growth, and greater self-understanding. My goal is to walk alongside you as we work together toward meaningful and lasting change.

I’m Osvaldo Santiago, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut, with over 10 years of experience supporting adults on their path toward greater clarity, healing, and self-acceptance. My work is grounded in the belief that therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely seen, safe, and empowered, especially if you’ve felt overlooked, misunderstood, or disconnected in other parts of your life. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you. I bring a calm, nonjudgmental presence to the therapy room, and I meet you where you are- whether you’re navigating anxiety, cultural identity stress, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, life transitions, or past trauma. In sessions, I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. These approaches offer structure and flexibility, helping us identify what’s getting in the way and build tools to support your growth and well-being. That said, I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model, I stay adaptable and responsive to what you need most in the moment. Outside of therapy, I value the same things I support my clients in cultivating: meaningful relationships, mindfulness, resilience, and space to breathe. I believe in showing up fully, both as a clinician and as a human being, and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you navigate whatever comes next.

Hi, I'm Ashley, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Reiki II practitioner. I believe that somewhere underneath the anxiety, the self-doubt, and the patterns that keep repeating, there is a version of you that already knows the way. My job isn't to fix you. It's to create a space steady enough that you can actually hear yourself. Together we get curious about the thoughts that won't quiet down, the emotions that feel bigger than the moment, the behaviors that keep showing up even when you don't want them to, and what all of it is actually trying to tell you. I utilize a holistic approach, bringing tools into our work that help you understand what's happening in your mind and body when you're overwhelmed, so you can actually do something about it instead of just surviving it. But more than any method or modality, I show up as a real person walking alongside you, trusting that you are the expert on your own life.

Therapy for college students, young adults, and teens who want real answers—not buzzwords. College, career moves, and young adulthood can leave you feeling burnt out, overwhelmed by overthinking, or stuck in a loop with anxiety and ADHD. You don't need a cold, clinical interrogation or stiff posture—you need a practical, real-world space to work through what's going on. I offer a laid-back, down-to-earth, and no-nonsense space where you can show up exactly as you are. We’ll skip the heavy medical jargon to focus on what actually works for your life. Together, we’ll cut through the mental clutter, call out the patterns holding you back, and build concrete CBT/DBT tools to get you moving forward with clarity, confidence, and humor.

Whether you're navigating executive functioning challenges, sensory sensitivities, masking, burnout, or simply trying to better understand yourself, therapy can provide a space where you don't have to explain or justify your experiences. Many of the individuals I work with have spent years putting others first, minimizing their own needs, or feeling like they should be able to manage everything on their own.

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and tailored to your unique needs. I integrate evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and strengths-based approaches. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all model, I work alongside you to identify meaningful goals and create a path forward that feels realistic, sustainable, and aligned with you.

Whether you're seeking support for a specific challenge or simply feeling ready for change, I'd be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

Clients often tell me it feels like talking to someone who “gets it,” while still being guided in a way that creates real change.

I am a warm individual who will listen to your story and help you to formulate the goals you want to achieve as you continue to build your life story. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the fundamental basis for the work in therapy. For this relationship to develop, respect, empathy, and trust must be the foundations. My goal as a therapist is to support my clients, by building a therapeutic alliance and maintaining respect and trust to move toward positive change. My experience includes working with those experiencing depression, anxiety, grief/loss, those struggling with self-esteem, relationship issues, spirituality, and women’s issues. My role is to help you become the “expert” so you can continue to grow long after our final session together.

As a psychotherapist my goal is to show up empathically and authentically while provide a nonjudgemental safe space for clients to express themselves. By building a strong therapeutic alliance and using a strength based approach, I help my clients achieve their goals and overcome challenges and obstacles standing in their way. I believe in bite-size progress to help motivate us to make bigger changes over time.

Greetings! Just a bit about me: I have over 25 yrs of experience providing evidence-based therapy, I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families to address behavioral, emotional, and mental health challenges. My clinical expertise includes Multidimensional Family Therapy (MDFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Informed Care, and Person-Centered Therapy. I have provided comprehensive, wraparound services to families, addressing crises, coordinating care, and supporting clients in community settings. From re-entry to domestic abuse, I have worked with many diverse populations, utilizing clinical assessments, treatment planning, and behavioral interventions to support rehabilitation and reintegration.

I believe therapy is about more than reducing symptoms—it's about helping you reconnect with yourself. Many of the women I work with are successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from who they truly are. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, regulate your nervous system, build self-trust, and create a life that feels more aligned, calm, and fulfilling. Therapy should feel like a place where you can exhale, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence.
