Motherhood is a profound journey marked by both beauty and upheaval. Whether your path to this moment has been long-anticipated or unexpected, the transition into motherhood often brings a whirlwind of emotions. Anxiety and depression during pregnancy and the postpartum period are more common than many realize, with maternal depression being the leading complication of childbirth. The shift from your pre-motherhood identity to caring for a newborn can be one of the toughest transitions you’ll ever experience. As a dedicated mental health professional, I am passionate about supporting individuals through some of life's most significant and challenging transitions. I offer various approaches, including talk therapy, art therapy, mindfulness and meditation practices, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). These methods are designed to help you express your feelings, redefine your identity, and find a sense of balance and well-being in this new chapter of your life.

My goal is to create a safe and affirming space where clients can explore their experiences, develop new tools for coping, and begin to feel more grounded and connected in daily life.

I've been doing this work for 15 years, in settings ranging from community-based support to inpatient, partial hospital, and integrated primary care.

I am a therapist and homesteader. I am from Massachusetts, and live in Maine. I've had several experiences that help me understand the struggles of folks who are adjusting to a new environment. Clients find me down to earth, the type of therapist who likes to laugh and will call you out sometimes. Everyone has qualities that can help them heal, but there are times when the right support can be so valuable.

Have you tried therapy but just didn’t get anywhere? New to therapy and not sure what to look for? Have a great life but feeling unfulfilled, having trouble navigating important relationships, or experiencing strong feelings that seem to come out of nowhere? I’ve worked with clients to explore these and similar issues in the many years I’ve provided therapy. I have an uncanny ability to gently and compassionately challenge what may be happening, often leading to insight and a new found ability to make real and lasting changes so you can focus on what matters most to you: your family, your education, your career, your mental well-being. Whether you are dealing with Relationship/friendship issues, parenting challenges, workplace issues or unresolved conflicts, I listen with an understanding ear. I help people address intense anxiety, ADHD, and mild depression even when most components in life seem to be going quite well. Sometimes things aren’t working because, well, they’re not working. My clients include people from various backgrounds and situations, from intact families to those estranged or low/no contact in family status. I see clients employed as teachers, nurses, research scientists, a dentist, a CEO, an HR executive, a cheese monger, both new and seasoned “stay-at-home” care-givers and many people studying in college, graduate programs, or obtaining post-graduate degrees. Whoever you are, from whatever background, I listen intently to your story and can help bring awareness into what may be obstacles to living a peaceful, serene, healthy life. As different as people are, I have discovered that some of our patterns and dynamics are very much the same. You don’t have to carry your emotional pain all on your own. I can help.

Hi! I’m Ashley, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of individuals, from children to adults, supporting people through a variety of behavioral, emotional, and psychological challenges. My experience includes working in settings such as correctional, crisis intervention, school-based programs, hospital settings and substance use programs, as well as supporting individuals navigating personality disorders, behavioral concerns, and difficulties with relationships. Across these experiences, I’ve found that one of the most meaningful parts of this work is helping people better understand themselves, build healthier relationships, and create a greater sense of balance and fulfillment in their everyday lives. I believe that therapy should feel like a space where you can be seen, heard, and supported without judgment. My goal is to create an environment that is uniquely tailored to each person I work with, honoring where they are while supporting them in where they want to go. I strive to meet each client with compassion, curiosity, and genuine care as we work together toward positive and lasting change.

Whether you are coping with loss, relationship difficulties, anxiety, life transitions, cultural or immigration-related stressors, or the lasting impact of trauma, you do not have to navigate it alone. My approach is grounded in authenticity, compassion, and deep listening. I believe healing happens within the context of a genuine therapeutic relationship—one where you feel seen, heard, respected, and understood. I strive to create a supportive space where you can explore your experiences openly and move toward healing at your own pace. As a strengths-based therapist, I support clients recognize and build upon their resilience, wisdom, and existing capacities for growth. I also believe it is important to understand our experiences within the larger social and cultural contexts that shape our lives. Together, we explore how factors such as family dynamics, cultural expectations, discrimination, immigration experiences, and systemic inequities may influence emotional well-being. My work focuses on support clients reconnect with themselves, identify what matters most, and create lives that feel meaningful and aligned with their values. Whether you are seeking healing, greater self-understanding, or support through a difficult season of life, I am committed to meeting you with empathy, curiosity, and respect. I believe healing is possible, and that you deserve a space where your story is honored and your experiences are valued.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist working with adults who may appear high-functioning on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally unsettled beneath the surface. Many of the individuals I work with are navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, self-doubt, or persistent patterns they can’t quite untangle on their own. My style is thoughtful, steady, and insight-oriented. I integrate practical tools for emotional regulation with deeper exploration of relational patterns and attachment dynamics. I believe therapy should feel both grounding and meaningful — a place where you can slow down, understand yourself more clearly, and begin shifting patterns that no longer serve you. Clients often describe me as calm, direct, and attuned. I aim to create a space that feels safe enough for honesty and structured enough for real change. My work focuses not only on reducing symptoms, but on building emotional clarity, stability, and more secure ways of relating — to others and to yourself.

Hi, I’m Jamilex (she/her), a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional based in Massachusetts. I offer online therapy for adolescents and adults navigating trauma, identity, and life transitions—especially those from BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities who are carrying complex stories that haven’t always felt safe to tell. My path to becoming a therapist began long before I earned my degree. Before I became a therapist, I was a young person surviving systems, silences, and scars; searching for safety, words, and meaning. My journey through abuse, family estrangement, foster care, and the military shaped not only my life, but my purpose. I know what it’s like to carry pain that feels too heavy, or too complicated, to name. That journey shaped my belief that even in silence, our stories matter. Even in pain, growth is possible.
