Therapists in Rhode Island

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and EMDR-trained therapist who helps adults work through anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, and relationship challenges. I specialize in supporting first-generation immigrants and high-achieving individuals who struggle with imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, or feeling “not good enough.” My approach is warm, culturally responsive, and grounded in evidence-based practices like EMDR and CBT. I create a space where you can process difficult experiences, build confidence, and develop tools to feel more secure and empowered in your life.

Welcome! I am Quarda- Licensed Clinical Social Worker, professional listener, and occasional over-user of sticky notes. I help people untangle the messy parts of life, whether it's anxiety, relationship hiccups, burnout, or just that nagging feeling that something's "off". My style is supportive, down- to-earth, and sprinkled with humor-- because sometimes laughter really is the best medicine (right after actual therapy of course). I use evidence -based techniques and empathy to assist you in making sense of your story and editing it as you may, build resilience, and move forward with purpose. Therapy doesn't have to be stiff or scary-- and if you're ready to do the work (and maybe laugh a little along the way), I'm here for it.

My name is Betsy and I am a licensed mental health clinician with over 10 years of experience working with adolescents and adults. Through my training and experience, I have developed a philosophy that simply listening, validating and being non-judgmental is “help.” However, to guide a patient’s growth in mental health treatment, it is important to challenge them in a non-threatening manner but to promote thought is necessary. Additionally, It is sometimes important to be the mirror that clients do not want to look in. Lastly, treatment should be collaborative and educate which means providing psycho-education information, written treatment work, and provide well rounded mental health guidance and support to help patient identify and achieve treatment goals.

Hi there. I'm Debra. I'm a licensed mental health counselor, licensed clinical addictions specialist and a board certified Christian counselor. I grew up in a challenging family/neighborhood in the Boston area. I have worked to overcome my environment and to become my best self. I believe in using my lived experience and education to help you do the same. Whether your struggling with depression, overthinking, family issues, alcohol/substance use, grief, self-esteem, self harm or suicidal ideation, I can help.

I believe therapy should feel calm, respectful, and genuinely supportive. I create a space where people can slow down, speak openly, and feel heard without judgment or pressure. My approach is warm, grounded, and collaborative, allowing clients to explore their experiences at a pace that feels comfortable while still working toward meaningful change. Many people come to therapy carrying stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, or past experiences while continuing to manage daily responsibilities. I enjoy helping people make sense of what they are going through, build insight, and reconnect with their strengths. Conversations are honest and thoughtful, with a focus on understanding the whole person rather than just one concern. My goal is to offer steady guidance while respecting each client’s individuality, goals, and values. Therapy becomes a space to reflect, gain clarity, heal, and begin moving forward with greater confidence and emotional balance.

~A Place to Pause, Reflect, and Heal Hello, I'm Dr. Ebonee. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, struggling to keep up with relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help individuals manage anxiety, avoid burnout, and break free from cycles of trauma, stress, and self-doubt. Together, we can identify what’s not working and get you back to balance. My interest in spirituality, which is not tied to any specific religion, allows me to offer a holistic approach to healing that addresses the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. I emphasize trauma’s role in shaping core beliefs, psychosocial stressors, and generational patterns, recognizing its imprint on the central nervous system. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), coaching, and positive psychology to reframe trauma narratives, foster self-discovery, and disrupt patterns of depression, anxiety, and re-traumatization. Whether you're navigating trauma, relationship challenges, or cycles of stress and overwhelm, I provide a safe space where healing begins. I know it may seem impossible, but what if I told you that you have the power to change your life? Now is the perfect time to start your healing journey. In our sessions, I’ll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques to help you overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let’s work together to build communication strategies, set boundaries, break cyclical trauma patterns, and foster self-worth for long-term stability. I’m excited to be on this journey with you! Here's a helpful video that explains the therapeutic process and what you can expect during your healing journey. https://youtu.be/R4B9BPBiIHo?si=HGNawKl7l1gVUv-z FYI: I recognize that my schedule sometimes books 3–4 weeks in advance, so please feel free to reach out if you need a sooner appointment.
