Meet The Team
 

I am a licensed independent clinical social worker. Prior to starting The Therapy Space, I was the director of an outpatient therapy clinic that serviced over 300 diverse clients as well as in my own private practice. Now, as the founder of The Therapy Space, I utilize my clinical expertise and work experience to help individuals achieve their goals. My credentials include an Associates Degree in Chemical Dependency and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Keene State College as well as a Master in Social Work from Simmons College in Boston. I have served as a Board Director for a large psychiatric hospital, as well as Executive Director of an Outpatient Counseling Program, a patient advocate and human rights officer, a program manager for adults with developmental disabilities, a program manager for a school based program, and an applied behavioral analysis counselor. My passion is to guide individuals to achieve overall emotional well-being. My clients tend to feel relief quickly, as I focus on providing you with evidence-based tools. I will help you to gain insight into your thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. I use a variety of theoretical frameworks, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Solution-focused therapy, and psycho education. My approach to everything that I do is to be as real as I can be. Whether I’m working with an individual in a therapy session, with friends and family, or working with a multidisciplinary team of coworkers I’ve never been someone who is good at faking it. What you see is what you get. I hold myself to the same standards to which I hold my clients—authenticity and honesty are essential. I provide my clients with an accurate reflection of what I see and a professional assessment of how they might do things differently. I will challenge you to think critically about the choices you make and the impact those choices are having on your life. Call or message me today to get started.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who provides individual counseling for adults (18+). I have experience providing counseling services in various settings including: school, home, office and Telehealth. I utilize a variety of approaches to fit your individualized needs including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution Focused Therapy, Psychoeducation and a Trauma-Informed Approach. I have a unique perspective as an intercountry, transracial adoptee (from infancy) who is currently in reunion with biological family. My experience guided me to a place where you can expect to feel validated in a safe, non-judgmental, collaborative space to work towards your identified goals. I would be honored to be a part of your journey.

If you’re trapped in a spiral of anxiety or depression, here is a hand reaching out to slow your momentum and create space for peace. Are you having trouble finding a way to break the cycle of stress? Let me help you find a way to regain control. My practice is based on mutual respect. I use a collaborative approach to therapy. Trust and respect are essential for growth. I believe that you are the expert of your life, and that you hold the potential for forward motion within yourself. I specialize in disability, chronic pain, trauma, grief, and LGBTQAI+ issues. I have years of expertise in CBT, DBT, Gestalt, Existential, Narrative, and Adlerian models of therapy. I practice bodywork and expressive therapy. I believe that focusing on the connection between the mind and body can help us understand the way we interact with the world. Through knowledge, we gain clarity, and through clarity we gain control over our own behaviors.

I am a Licensed Mental Health counselor and have experience conducting individual and family therapy in various settings: in-office, in the home, and online with clients presenting with a broad range and severity of clinical issues. I have had the most experience working with those struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, Autism Spectrum Disorder, anxiety, depression, teen/young adult concerns and various mood disorders. I use a client centered approach to help clients reach their own goals and gain better insight in their emotions. I also utilize CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and MI (motivational interviewing) as well. I have learned that people want someone to really hear them and respond with authenticity and compassion. Therapy can be a challenging journey, and it is my goal to help you through the process every step of the way. Progress is not always as swift as we would like it to be. So much of life is out of our control, but what we can learn to regulate is our response to those unexpected challenges. When someone is brave, willing, and ready for change the world can be a better place. It is a privilege to help you along the way.

I am a licensed mental health counselor and have been working with individuals and families for over 30 years in a variety of settings.

As a therapist, I believe in treating the whole person, recognizing that mental, emotional, and physical well-being are interconnected. Together, we'll explore your unique strengths and challenges, uncovering new insights and strategies for growth. My goal is to empower you to cultivate a fulfilling and balanced life that aligns with your values and aspirations. I believe that building a trusting and collaborative relationship with my clients is vital. I strive to create a warm and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Your journey is unique, and I'm here to provide guidance, problem solving, and encouragement every step of the way! I earned my Masters of Education in Mental Health Counseling from Boston University where I gained a deep appreciation for viewing each client as their own individual, valuing their distinct experiences, perspectives, and needs, rather than taking a one-size-fits all approach. I specialize in treating adults with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, OCD, LGBTQIA+ issues, self-esteem, and life transitions. My approach integrates evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Whether you're facing specific challenges or simply seeking personal growth, I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Board Certified Music Therapist (MTBC). I received my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Expressive Therapies from Lesley University. I am passionate about working with individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community. I incorporate therapeutic approaches like: Person-Centered, Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Music Therapy. I have worked with teens and adults who experience anxiety, depression, substance-use, gender dysphoria, trauma, and grief. I believe that the therapy space should be a co-collaborative one and everyone has the right to go at their own pace. You are in control, your mental health is important and you matter.

Hello! You’ve made it. You’ve taken the first step to start or restart therapy and you should feel proud to have made it this far. As your therapist I will provide you with a safe space to express yourself, including the good, the bad, and everything in between. I want you to know that you are not alone. I will be an integral part of your support system while we navigate your path to self-fulfillment. I emphasize starting with achieving small goals that result in long term stability. I believe it is important to acknowledge that change takes time. As we work towards your goals, we will respect a realistic timeline, define and create a safe space and explore what supports we have in place and where we may need more. By working together, using honest and clear communication, I believe we can develop an individualized definition of well-being. As a mental health counselor, I strive to apply psychological theories and techniques in a digestible and realistic way to each person that I partner with. Everyone brings with them their own history, challenges and desired outcomes that deserve an individualized approach. I have a wealth of important experience helping adults, teens and couples both at The Therapy Space and as a former emergency mental health crisis counselor in the Greater Boston Area. I am looking forward to learning how my clinical expertise can best serve you.

When you reach out to us, the first person you’ll likely talk to is me. I am very passionate about helping people from different walks of life get set up with the care they need and deserve.

My professional work experience has largely been in the realm of helping therapists focus on what they do best, while I manage keeping the front of the house in order. When I’m not in the office, you can usually find me at home with my husband and our 5 year old son, and our many pets! I look forward to speaking with you!

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and provide individual and family therapy with clients in a collaborative way. I see clients from pre-teen through adulthood. I have a particular interest in working with older adolescents/young adults. I use a variety of modalities to highlight the clients' strengths that include, but are not limited to CBT, mindfulness-based interventions, Motivational Interviewing Solution Focused therapy and DBT skills training. I truly believe you are your own expert and I am here as a compassionate witness to your journey. I use humor and a warm approach to help clients feel at ease. I received my Masters of Social Work from Bridgewater State University in 2013. Prior to transitioning to the outpatient setting, I worked for over a decade with transitional age youth in residential setting navigating trauma, life transitions, social stressors and boundary setting. Some areas of specialty are: Anxiety, Depression, LGBTQIA+, PTSD/Trauma, Grief/Loss, Parenting, Self Esteem, Life Transtions, and Women's Health.

I'd like to help you uncover the best version of yourself. I work to develop a safe and trusting relationship and then draw on strengths you already have to help you grow into your best self- for your partner, your children, your loved ones, and most importantly for you. We will work together to identify emotions, break destructive patterns, and refine communication. I'm honored to see couples through rough patches and families through transition. I also specialize in adolescents. Theoretical frameworks: IFS, DBT, gentle reprocessing, holistic, yoga therapy.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and hope to provide care in a setting that feels safe, supportive, and non-judgmental as you explore your story, emotions, and behaviors. I hope to meet you where you are and build a therapeutic alliance based in mutual trust and respect in order to help you feel confident and empowered in your journey toward healing, growth and change. I work individually with adolescents and adults and I utilize an eclectic approach, drawing from evidence-based practices including CBT, DBT, mindfulness and relational approaches. Some of my clinical interests include mood and anxiety disorders, adjustment, trauma and women’s mental health. I received my bachelors from the University of California, San Diego in human development and my masters from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in South Hamilton, MA. Over the years I have worked in a community based outpatient clinic and in an integrative care program providing outpatient care to pregnant and postpartum women with substance use disorders.

Parenthood can be beautiful, exhausting, overwhelming, and complicated, all at once. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, or simply don’t feel yourself, therapy can offer a supportive space to feel understood and reconnect with yourself. I believe that attending to your emotional needs and overall well-being is an important part of creating a rich and fulfilling life. I also believe that each person brings unique strengths, values, and experiences into therapy. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you can better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools to navigate life with greater confidence and compassion. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Perinatal Mental Health-Certified clinician (PMH-C) with 11 years of experience in mental health. I graduated from the University of New England and have spent the past five years specializing in perinatal mental health, with specialized training through Postpartum Support International and the Department of Veterans Affairs Reproductive Psychiatry program. I specialize in supporting individuals experiencing perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs), including postpartum anxiety, depression, OCD, pregnancy-related anxiety, and the emotional challenges of becoming and being a parent. I also work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is warm, compassionate, practical, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), and supportive therapy, tailoring treatment to your individual needs and goals. Earlier in my career, I worked in inpatient psychiatry, partial hospitalization, and suicide prevention, experiences that provided a strong foundation in supporting individuals through significant mental health challenges As a mother, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to my work with parents. While every experience of parenthood is different, I understand how easy it can be to lose sight of your own emotional needs while caring for everyone else. You deserve a space where your experiences are heard, your needs matter, and you can work toward feeling more like yourself again. I would be honored to help you get there.

I am a firm believer that therapy should feel practical, and serve as an authentic, supportive space where individuals can be met without judgement. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working in a variety of treatment settings, including inpatient, partial hospitalization programs, and individual outpatient. I received my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University in Los Angeles, but have primarily worked in the state of Massachusetts for the last 9 years. I enjoy collaborating with clients to support them as a validating and driving force toward meeting their goals. My therapy style pulls from a variety of treatment modalities, as I have extensive training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD and Hoarding issues. Additionally, I am trained in Gottman Level I and II Couples Therapy.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with experience working in outpatient community mental health, providing individual and group counseling. Throughout treatment I use a strength-based approach to accomplish goals effectively that combine elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered approaches, psycho education, and motivational interviewing skills. I feel that therapy may provide a safe environment as a learning experience for both the client and clinician to collaboratively develop helpful tools to fulfill long-term and short-term goals and allow for growth.

I’m Mandy, a holistic Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider, and current Somatic Educator for Women trainee with over 8 years of experience in the mental health field. My work centers on women’s wellness, with a focus on supporting women navigating ADHD, ASD, chronic stress, anxiety, nervous system disregulation, and life transitions. Through working with a diverse range of clients, I’ve found that many women move through life feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, and stuck in survival mode. My approach is rooted in body based healing, helping clients cultivate a deeper sense of safety, regulation, and self-trust. Together, we’ll explore how emotions and lived experiences are held in the body while creating a warm, supportive space for healing, reconnection, and growth. I tailor therapy to each client’s unique needs, integrating somatic therapy, mindfulness, expressive arts, CBT, psychoeducation, and other evidence based approaches. My work is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in helping you feel more resourced, connected, and empowered to navigate life with greater authenticity and ease. We cannot think our way to safety; we must feel it.

Welcome to The Therapy Space! These first steps are often the most challenging.
