84 White therapists in Massachusetts

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a specialization in Expressive Arts Therapy. I have 7+ years working with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship patterns, and experiences relating to LGBTQA+ and BIPOC communities. My practice is centered around helping people feel more connected to their inner, emotional experiences, and external environments, with a sense of belonging, trust, and agency. Expressive Arts Therapy means art and creativity are tools I use alongside talk-therapy. I am also trained in facilitating yoga and meditation, which allows for the option of incorporating body-oriented techniques within session I approach each therapeutic relationship as a collaborative one. My style is warm, patient-led, and holistic, with focus on building a trusting bond.

*Currently NOT accepting couples* Hello, my name is William. I have been in the field for nearly 10 years now. I have worked in a variety of positions from Hospital settings to inpatient, to group/couples work, and the standard individual sessions. I am a sex-positive therapist who works with a wide range of issues. I work using a combination of short and long-term goals. However, I only work with 18+ year old clients. I'm not sure what exactly brought you here, but I can guess it has something to do with seeking a positive change. Perhaps this is your first-time trying therapy or you are well versed in the process. No matter the reason or experience level I would like to offer you a safe space to let those feelings out and share them in a nonjudgmental space.

Hello and Welcome! I am a social worker who has been in the field for over 20 years. Early in my career, I was fortunate enough to work with a psychiatrist who believed there was more to treating mental health than medication. I participated in a training with him and I was transformed as a therapist. I was trained in the relaxation response and mindfulness meditation and using the body to help heal people who have had significant trauma and mental health challenges. From there, I went on to get my yoga teaching certification from Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. Since then, I have been helping children, adolescents and adults learn more about themselves and help them connect with the truest part of themselves. I believe part of my purpose is to help people learn to love themselves. I lived in CA for a long time and still hold my LCSW license. I was fortunate enough to study with a number of teachers at Spirit Rock Meditation Center who have influenced my work. I blend a number of different frameworks into my practice including trauma-informed CBT, DBT, somatic psychotherapy and self-compassion. I am mindful and respectful of all differences (racial, ethnic, cultural, religious, economic, gender, sexual orientation, ability etc.) and strive to understand each person within the context of their life history. Every person who seeks treatment has unique needs and goals. I strive to work collaboratively with you to keep your goals at the center of our work together. I stand in solidarity with the BIPOC community and all those impacted by systemic racism and oppression. I will uphold my own values and ethics and support all those who are speaking out against injustice of any kind. As a therapist, I am committed to creating a safe space for all.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, with a Specialization in Dance Movement Therapy, and also hold a certification in Laughter Yoga. I utilize an integrative therapeutic approach and theory, as well as draw from the Expressive Arts Therapies, mindfulness and somatic based practices. I have been told I am an open, grounded and empathetic listener, who helps others feel safe and comfortable, but also, when appropriate, has a good sense of humor. No matter what your unique story or circumstance, let’s work together to write your next life chapter. To live a healthy and balanced life, inside and out, with more joy, self-awareness, self- love, possibilities, and inner peace. I look forward to meeting you.

As a therapist, I know that hope is obtainable despite feelings or depression or anxiety. Imagining life with hope and happiness can be challenging, but it is possible to achieve. I utilize a strength-based approach with multiple behavioral health techniques and therapies to personalize care of couples or individuals. 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. I believe creating a warm, accepting, and safe environment is important to the therapeutic process. My strength-based approach and use of person centered therapy (CCT) helps me achieve this ideal therapeutic environment. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to further address challenges. I develop therapy plans collaboratively with my patients to ensure we’re addressing challenges the way you want to address them. I’ve learned that I’m exceptional at showing the empathy I have for others and utilizing this empathy to develop a therapeutic plan.

My first focus as a therapist is to foster a space where you can be yourself. Where you can say or feel anything. I try to do this by listening, affirming, being curious, and collaborating with you to find a better way forward. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience. Currently, I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship problems, meaninglessness, and the residual impacts of past traumas. I do my best to acknowledge the many ways in which social, cultural, and economic inequities shape how we understand ourselves and interact with the world.

Hi All, My name is Linda, and I have a deep passion for helping folks grow to the heights they want to achieve. I have been a therapist for years, and have spent a great deal of time helping those who have experienced trauma. I love working with people and have a special place in my heart for the Arts and Music. For many years I owned a woodcraft and ceramic business and continue to keep crafts close to me. I also love music and love to play the organ, piano, and guitar. I was a non-traditional student and received my bachelor's degree in Clinical Psychology in 1996 from East Stroudsburg University, then raised my own three children for a while. I returned to school and completed my master's degree in Social Work in 2020 from Capella University. I currently hold an LCSW in PA. I have taken many additional trainings in Trauma-informed counseling, DBT, EMDR, and of course crafts/painting. Helping folks care for themselves is extremely important in life’s struggles, and sharing the heart's desires helps us all navigate the world. It is with great anticipation that I get to know the uniqueness of you in a holistic environment where we can work on reaching the heights of your passion. I hope all my folks find me supportive and comforting on their journey in life. We can do this! See you soon!

I work with individuals to determine what change they hope to see and develop a client-centered plan about how to work toward the change to get unstuck. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals identify negative thinking patterns we can change to positively impact their moods and behaviors so the wheels aren't relentlessly spinning.

Are you feeling the effects of stress in your life with increased overwhelm, irritability, anxiety or health issues? These are important messages that let us know it's time to tune in and make some changes.
