Hi there! I have been a licensed therapist for 7 years and work in an outpatient hospital system as well as with a psychiatric crisis team. I have worked with just about every type of condition but have concentrated on people with anxiety, ADHD, career decisions and interpersonal relationship struggles. My niche age groups are females/males aged 20-30, whom I see in a very transitional and challenging period in life. Women ages 40-65 are my second demographic. My own lived experiences give me insight and help me to guide my clients through challenging times.

Hello, I am Daphne Jakstis. I have been a licensed therapist for over 23 years. I keep up to date with the latest advances in evidence-based therapy practices and incorporate them into my work with clients. Evidence-based practices are skills and techniques that have been proven to be effective. I also believe that healing is a holistic approach so I combine evidence-based practices with complementary approaches to promote overall healing and wellness. I realize that no two people are the same, so I tailor my approaches to best fit the specific needs of my clients. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any other issue, I will help you fully realize your strengths and provide you with skills to help you manage challenges in healthier ways.

Do you feel you've been living just to get through the days? Or that your past experiences in life are holding you back from what you'd really like to be doing? I may be able to help. Coming to therapy can be one of the most difficult decisions one chooses to make. Whether it's your first time, fifth time, or transitioning from a long history with a previous therapist, change can be very hard. Feeling the right connection is an important building block of treatment success. I have worked in community mental health for over 10 years and have experience with a myriad of stressors including (not limited to) life transitions, relational problems, trauma (complex trauma), depression/anxiety, and grief. I believe in the power of change and healing at any age. Our early life experiences can shape how we view the world and how we see (or don't see) ourselves being able to move forward. Please consider contacting me for a free 15 minute consultation to ask any questions you may have.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), with a Master of Science in marriage, family, and child counseling. I have extensive experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. My areas of expertise include working with clients who are dealing with depression, anxiety, work stress, relational issues, and creating meaningful change in their lives. I also have a special interest and experience working with women before, during and after pregnancy. I have over fifteen years of experience working with clients of various ages, diagnoses, and backgrounds. I utilize a variety of treatment approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I strive to provide the time and space for my clients to express challenges, hopes, pain, etc. Finding solutions will be our first goal. I am a very open-minded therapist and enjoy working with motivated individuals who participate in the therapeutic process. I hope that clients feel safe and more connected to themselves after our work together and can go out into the world with more confidence and compassion for themselves and others.

Hi there! My name is Lauren, and I'm glad you're here. I am a licensed mental health counselor from Massachusetts. I work with adolescents and young adults who are struggling to find their voice. We go through big changes throughout our lives and that can be scary. I strive to create a space where individuals can explore who they are and build their self-confidence.

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 United Medical Resources?

Yes! If you use United Medical Resources you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have United Medical Resources 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.
