Therapists in Massachusetts

Hello, I’m Naomi, and I’m glad you’re here. I’m a licensed mental health clinician providing therapy for teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck. You may be managing a lot on the outside while quietly struggling on the inside, trying to keep everything together while feeling unsure of what to do next. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can slow down, feel heard, and make sense of what you’re experiencing. My goal is to create an environment where you can be yourself without feeling pressured to have everything figured out. My approach is collaborative, flexible, and individualized. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based strategies, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and expressive techniques when helpful. I don’t believe therapy should be one-size-fits-all. Instead, we’ll work together to find approaches and strategies that fit your needs, personality, and everyday life.

I have a master’s degree in clinical social work from Boston University and am a licensed therapist in the state of Massachusetts. Over the past 8 years, I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse populations, including adolescents and adults, in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or stress, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space to explore your feelings and experiences. I take a client-centered, integrative approach to therapy, which means that I tailor my methods to meet your unique needs and goals. I draw from several therapeutic modalities, including but not limited to: CBT, DBT skills, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, MI, Strengths Based Therapy and Solutions Focused Therapy. My goal is to work collaboratively with you, creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. I am also a strong advocate and support to the LGBTQIA+ population.

I ensure that each patient feels comfortable and confident in their decision to seek care. I have dedicated my career to empowering clients through a blend of evidence-based techniques and compassionate care. With an extensive background in clinical psychology, I successfully employ multiple therapeutic modalities including EMDR, ERP therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, CBT and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy! I also provide clinical supervision to interns and newly licensed clinicians in MA and RI through my ACS certification.

We set goals together and figure out what's going to move the needle fastest. I'm a licensed mental health counselor with 7+ years of experience helping people get unstuck and move forward.

I know that reaching out for support can feel like a big step, especially when you're in the middle of a stressful or uncertain time. I bring a steady, calm presence to sessions, something I've built through years of crisis work, and I use that same grounded approach to help you build practical coping skills for anxiety, big life transitions, or moments that feel overwhelming. When I'm not in session, I recharge through movement, time at the beach, and time with the people I love, and I bring that same sense of balance into the way I encourage clients to care for themselves outside of our work together.

You are here hoping to find that therapist who stands out to you because you want to find someone who can help you. The search can be overwhelming for some. Most of the profiles of therapists are going to say similar things. Most of which should be standard like brakes on a car. I cannot promise I'm the right one for you. Here is what I can tell you about my approach. I believe in being practical which means I will not use a lot of psycho-babble or fancy strategies. I have a tendency to be blunt. My wife says I'm the "bluntest politest man" she has ever met. I'm going to be real with you. I love couples/marriage counseling, and that is my main focus. However, about half of my clients have always been individuals. Some people just need a place to vent. Others need help solving a problem, and most people need a little of both. I know therapy might be a little intimidating or even scary to some. Try to think of it as a massage for your brain. It's a place where you can say whatever you want guilt-free.

“An Arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward. So when life is dragging you back, it means that it is going to launch you into something great.” Life has its way of pulling us backward, but I believe with positive support, healthy coping skills, and processing through things that are dragging you back; you can learn to thrive and launch yourself into greater things. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Missouri and also licensed in Illinois and Massachusetts. I received my Master's from the University of Missouri-Columbia.

My greatest strength as a therapist is building genuine, trusting relationships where clients feel accepted, heard, and understood. Using a variety of therapeutic approaches, I help clients develop practical coping skills to manage daily stress and navigate symptoms they have struggled with in the past. I truly believe change is possible. I use DBT(Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) informed skills to help women and individuals in the perinatal period and beyond build mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and healthy relationship skills. These tools are effective in managing anxiety, depression, mood changes, trauma responses, disordered eating, substance use, and other emotional challenges common in women’s and perinatal mental health.

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Massachusetts, holding a master’s degree from the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico. With 13 years of experience, I specialize in assisting adults who are dealing with anxiety, depression and couples’ difficulties, to guiding them towards becoming their best selves. I use a compassionate, evidence-based approach tailored to each individual’s needs. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your challenges and build the skills necessary for a more fulfilling life. Together, we will work to develop effective strategies that empower you to achieve lasting change and well-being.

I provide evidence‑based therapy grounded in clinical assessment, trauma‑informed care, and culturally responsive practice. My approach is structured, collaborative, and focused on helping clients build insight, stability, and long‑term resilience. I am completing an APA‑accredited doctoral internship in a large integrated healthcare system, where I receive supervised training across trauma recovery, inpatient mental health, and neuropsychological assessment. This includes experience with Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), crisis stabilization, diagnostic clarification, and cognitive evaluations for conditions such as TBI, dementia, and complex medical presentations. My clinical work is informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and other evidence‑based approaches. I integrate structured assessment, clear case conceptualization, and practical skills to help clients navigate PTSD, anxiety, depression, identity concerns, and life transitions. I am committed to providing care that is compassionate, culturally aware, and grounded in respect for each client’s lived experience. My goal is to create a safe, steady therapeutic space where clients can explore their concerns, strengthen coping abilities, and move toward meaningful personal growth. A military Veteran himself, Dennis brings lived experience, humility, and a steady, supportive presence to his work. He has served Veterans and adults across multiple settings, emergency departments, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and detoxification facilities. His approach is compassionate, structured, and culturally responsive, creating a safe and grounded space for healing and growth. Dennis integrates CBT, DBT skills, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and relapse‑prevention approaches to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful, sustainable change. He is committed to helping clients move toward lives guided by clarity, resilience, and their personal values.
