Av Med Therapists in Massachusetts

Life can feel overwhelming, complicated, and sometimes just plain messy—and you don’t have to navigate it all on your own. I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment, and feel genuinely heard and understood. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts with over 14 years of experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families through life’s challenges. I earned my Doctorate in Social Work from Simmons University and have worked in a variety of settings, including community-based treatment, addiction counseling, and pediatric primary care. I have extensive experience helping children and families navigate anxiety, parenting challenges, family conflict, life transitions, and parent-child relationship difficulties. My experiences across different settings have given me a broad perspective and a practical, flexible approach to therapy. I believe that understanding the whole person—including their relationships, environment, and life experiences—is an important part of meaningful change. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves, supported without judgment, and genuinely heard. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), while tailoring treatment to each client's individual needs and goals. My goal is to help you recognize the strengths you already have, develop practical tools for navigating life's challenges, and feel more confident in your ability to move forward. Come as you are—in our sessions, we’ll work to figure out the rest together.

I'm Rhyanna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who is ready to help you lead a more fulfilling life. Taking the leap to start therapy can be a tough decision. Most of us feel that we should be able to handle everything on our own. I'm here to remind you that you aren't alone. You are supported and you deserve to feel your best, heal, and grow. I create a warm environment and empower my clients to take back control of their lives. I encourage an active therapy experience where clients learn skills, set weekly goals, and complete homework to build a sense of independence and self-confidence. Whether you're struggling with your self-esteem, anxious thoughts, work stress, relationships, general motivation or more, I can help! I look forward to helping you explore and overcome your struggles with compassion, good humor, and evidenced based techniques. I won't be the type of therapist who just sits backs and nods. I want to help you with active problem solving and building skills. It may be helpful to know that I am a married mom of a 3 year old boy and I am happy to share parts of my personal life if I feel that it helps enhance the therapy process. I would be honored to be chosen for your therapy journey and look forward to connecting soon.

I see myself as a partner, working alongside people to help them find their own path. I believe the therapeutic relationship is something we build together over time, starting from the very first conversation. I work with adults 18 and older who are dealing with a wide range of challenges. What I enjoy most about being a therapist is helping people reach their goals and learn how to handle life’s problems with confidence. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship and family issues. My approach is flexible and focused on building people up, highlighting strengths, and encouraging positive growth. With over 15 years of experience in the healthcare field, I’ve had the chance to use a variety of techniques and have learned firsthand what tends to work best for different people.

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.

Whether you’re adjusting to postpartum changes, healing from past experiences, or struggling to feel grounded day to day, therapy with me is a space to slow down and make sense of what you’re carrying. Together, we’ll build insight and real-life tools that help you feel more regulated, confident, and connected—both to yourself and the life you’re trying to live.

Hello, I hold a Master of Social Work degree from Albany University in New York and have been practicing for over 12 years. Some of the best experience as a therapist have been working with teens, young adults, parents, and the queer community - sometimes these "population" overlap of course; I love working with people seeking to bring their various histories, and identities into cohesion.

In a perfect world, you wouldn't need to be looking for a therapist - but here we are. I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and I've been working in the mental health field for ten years. I graduated from Simmons College in 2017 and am currently licensed in Massachusetts and Vermont. I help people of all ages and identities make the changes they need in their lives to be happier.

As adults, we are responsible for resolving the traumas that have happened to us, to pick up the pieces and put ourselves back together, not because we are to blame for our experiences, but because we are the only ones who CAN change them. That can feel unfair, and it is, there is no doubt about that. On the flipside it can also be empowering- you are the catalyst for personal change, you can always take a turn or step in a different direction, you can always act differently, feel differently, and (with the right tools and assistance) start the healing process. I am here to help you with this noble, and sometimes difficult work. As a mental health professional, I am passionate about helping others feel more whole, hopeful and effective by developing deeper self-knowledge, self-respect, compassion, resilience and further developing our coping skills to take on the challenged life throws your way. I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief to assist clients in reducing distressing thoughts and emotions. Drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I collaborate with my clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns contributing to their symptoms. Through a combination of cognitive restructuring, emotion regulation techniques, and mindfulness practices, I help my clients develop healthier coping mechanisms and increase resilience in the face of life's challenges.

Everyone deserves a safe and nurturing space to heal, grow, and be fully seen. I am honored to hold that space for you.
