I’m really glad you’re considering therapy—it’s a powerful step toward understanding yourself and making positive changes. It’s completely normal to have questions or feel uncertain in the beginning. The most important part is that you’re open to exploring your thoughts and feelings in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I'm here to support you in whatever way is most helpful, whether that’s answering questions, helping you get started, or just listening. You don’t have to figure it all out at once—just taking this first step is already meaningful. My professional training and certifications include holistic counseling, trauma, cognitive, dialectical, internal family systems, somatic stabilization, neurobiology, and mindfulness interventions. I collaborate with individuals, both men and women, and focus on the four pillars of wellness: mind, body, spirit, and environment.

Hi, my name is Bradley Levy LICSW and have 20 years of experience in the field. Are there changes that either you want to or need to act upon? If things feel too difficult to change and you need guidance, support, direction, and empathic listening you might be a great candidate for individual therapy from me. What separates me from other clinicians is my versatility. Throughout my career, I have worked at every level of care and every population. From individual therapy/group therapy to intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization programs to being the clinical director at a locked psychiatric hospital, I have seen pretty much everything. My main objective in all cases is to try and build a trusting rapport/relationship in which no judgment is made and an atmosphere where one can feel safe talking about difficult issues, their current level or desire to change through motivational interviewing and CBT. Over the years I have come to develop areas of extreme expertise such as addiction (either oneself or a loved one), co-occurring disorders or dual diagnosis, dealing with any diagnosis from adjustment disorders to more complex or serious mental illness which includes major depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, and the conditions that fall within these categories. In addition, I can offer case management services, assist with paperwork, or find the right treatment if need a higher level of care.

I am an inspired psychotherapist. Artfully blending guided inner work, concrete skill building, and compassionate connection and support. My career started almost 20 years ago as a yoga instructor. The mindfulness, meditation, and breathing practices came together within a physical practice to provide a holistic strategy to health and wellbeing. Over time I began to enjoy working one on one with clients, and my expertise expanded to incorporate physical fitness training. I developed a true love for meeting with another person and providing the space to hear and honor their story. As a psychotherapist now, I recognize the importance of connecting mind, body, and spirit in my work with clients. I have a very eclectic therapeutic style and draw interventions from various approaches. I am mostly inspired by and trained in the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. I start our work together knowing that you are made up of many beautiful parts, and already have within you the ability to heal. From those assumptions we work together to help you build a stronger, more compassionate relationship with your Self, and take steps towards a more fulfilling life.

I have been a therapist for years, and have spent a great deal of time helping those who have experienced trauma.

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.

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.

Hi, I’m Andrew MacMillan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering virtual therapy in Massachusetts and North Carolina. I work with adults navigating a wide range of challenges, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, affirming, and grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. Therapy with me is a space where you can be honest, uncertain, overwhelmed, or stuck — without judgment. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way and develop tools that help you move toward clarity, self-compassion, and emotional balance. I draw from a range of evidence-based practices including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I often support clients with emotion regulation, identity exploration, and longstanding patterns related to personality dynamics or relational trauma. I have particular experience working with neurodivergent adults — especially those who may have masked for years or struggled to feel understood in traditional therapy settings. My style is warm, nonjudgmental, and often infused with humor, because therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or cold to be effective. Whether you’re coming in with a specific goal or just a sense that something needs to shift, we can figure it out together. I’ve worked with a wide range of presentations and always strive to meet people where they are. If you're curious about working together, feel free to reach out to schedule a consultation. I’d love to learn more about what you’re looking for and help you decide if I’m the right fit.

I bring something to individual and couples therapy that is rare today and not from a text book, that is lived experience. In drawing from different evidence based schools of thought in combination with my lived experiences we will employ such modalities of therapy such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. Adversity and struggle are situations that are common. The goal to avoid both would be ideal but that is not reality. Peace and calmness in the mist of adversity and struggle is a possible reality and what we will strive to help you achieve.

Hello! My name is Greg Corbett and I am a LMHC in the state of Massachusetts. I have been working as a therapist on some level for the last 8 years. During my time as an undergraduate, I had the pleasure of having two separate internships; one at a rape crisis/domestic violence hotline and one at a substance use treatment center. Through these two internships, I was able to learn what it was like to be a therapist and discover that I wanted to continue to pursue my education to become a therapist myself. During my graduate program, I completed two more internships, one that allowed me to continue my work at a substance use treatment center and one at a college counseling center. I was able to truly find myself as a therapist, gain experience working with individuals 18+, learn about the way the court system works, especially with regards to drug and alcohol offenses, and also gain experience working with various presenting concerns, from depression and anxiety to trauma. Following graduating with my Master's degree, I worked at two separate community outpatient counseling centers and a more private outpatient counseling clinic. I have worked with individuals ranging in age from 4 to 70 and have gained experience with various presenting concerns. During my time as a therapist, I have witnessed how difficult it has been for people to find a therapist due to long waitlists. The act of reaching out to set up therapy is hard enough; it should not take several months to get an appointment and I want to help alleviate such a wait for people. I want to be here for you. I believe anyone can do this work if they have the right support and I hope to be a support for you.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Massachusetts rather than a city like Boston?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Massachusetts from Springfield to Cape Cod! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Massachusetts.

Will my therapist take Golden Rule?

Yes! If you use Golden Rule you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Golden Rule you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
