Therapists in Massachusetts

I have worked with Cape Cod based non-profit organizations for over 11 years, serving clients of all ages and from all walks of life. I have a deep and diverse experience with a variety of mental health challenges, such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction as well as the full range of life transition, work and relationship based stressors. Before joining Leek Therapy as a private practitioner, I worked in several school districts and outpatient care facilities working with a diverse group of clients.

I specialize in guiding clients either through life and career transitions, or when they're just feeling stuck. Whether you're navigating a shift in your current personal or professional path, or craving a more purposeful direction, our collaborative journey aims to bring clarity, resilience, and transformative strategies to your life. I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from New York University, Business from George Washington University and I am clinically certified in Holistic Health and Nutrition from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.

My ideal clients are those who may be seeking healing from trauma, navigating anxiety and depression, and improving relationships. They're committed to self-awareness, open to exploring emotions, and willing to engage in introspection. They value authenticity, trust the therapeutic process, and actively participate in their own growth. They appreciate a clinician who is strengths based, trauma informed, and encouraging to help guide them through their unique and individual healing process. I am also a lifelong equestrian and strive to use my education and experience to help other riders overcome competition and performance anxiety.

Welcome to my page! I wanted to start by saying, I am happy you are making active steps to better manage your mental health. I know how challenging it can be to start the process. I wanted to share some information about my background, specialties and approach to help determine if I would be a good fit as your therapist. I graduated from Cambridge College in 2014 with an M.Ed in Counseling Psychology and Addiction Counseling. I have worked in an array of settings, including residential, inpatient and outpatient with individuals, families and groups. I also have experience with Vocational and Education Counseling and Case Management.

My patients are typically older adolescents, college students, and adults who are facing a range of difficulties relating to relationships, changes, school, work, or body image. In a psychotherapy treatment, I aim to build a genuine connection with my patients and work collaboratively with them to deepen an understanding of behavior. I am trained to listen closely for underlying dynamics that might be contributing to current symptoms or troubles, and I work tactfully to address this with my patients to help reduce symptoms and experience more fulfillment and freedom in the many dimensions of their lives.

Feeling uncertain about how to improve your life? Want to talk but afraid of being judged? My approach is warm, supportive, and non-judgmental. I strive to provide a caring relationship that builds on your strengths, helping you collaborate towards meeting your goals and living a meaningful life you truly value. I believe in the power of collaboration in therapy and am committed to setting concrete goals and steps to help you overcome your challenges.

I am accepting new clients age 18 and older. I am a licensed addiction counselor and a licensed mental health clinician. I work with individuals who suffer from anxiety, depression, trauma related disorders, eating disorders and many other mental health and substance use disorders.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Clinician who serves children, adolescents, young adults, and adults in the following areas: Eating Disorders, Self Esteem, Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Stress Management, and Adjustment Disorders. I also specialize in working with athletes to help increase their sports performance. I work collaboratively with each client to help them gain insight into the presenting problem, and then utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches to help each client reach their treatment goals. In treatment, I treat the whole person to help them live a well-adjusted life in all stages of development.

The ideal client is open to receiving advice and implementing it into their daily lives. The client may have issues with substance abuse due to a lack of healthy coping skills. The client's needs are to improve the quality of work-life balance. It is also important for clients to learn healthy coping strategies to cope with anxiety, depression, and other underlying mental health disorders that are often the underlying cause of substance abuse.

I am a licensed independent social worker with over 11 years of experience. I provide person-centered care for adults and older adolescents struggling with mood and anxiety disorders, PTSD, complex trauma, problems with adjustment or life transitions, and relationship struggles.

I am Jane Gotshalk, a licensed independent clinical social worker. I started my journey in 1997, knowing then that I wanted to work with children and adolescents. As I've grown older and more experienced with virtual therapy, I have found that younger children are more successful with in person therapy. However, I still am passionate about working with adolescents and college students as well as adults up to age 60.

For all of us, life brings transitions and challenges. We may struggle with current experiences, as well as the way we are carrying the past with us. Transitions in life are often filled with overwhelming emotions and a therapeutic relationship can provide space and a place to navigate these moments. We all possess strengths and, in our work together, we will uncover those and provide opportunities to manage challenges. My approach is trauma-informed, strengths-based and client-centered. I believe that we all benefit from a place to explore and understand our own story.

Hi, I'm Steve Freilich. I'm an unusually down-to-earth psychologist. My greatest strengths are my broad repertoire of interpersonal and analytic skills, insights, strategies, and a very empathic style that will help you feel very much understood and comfortable sharing anything. I help you achieve long lasting relief from emotional pain and/or help you solve significant life problems complicated or magnified by emotional obstacles (yours or others). Over 90% of those who start to work with me return for more sessions - many for a while.

Do you ever find yourself saying "I need to talk to someone about this" but then it passes and you don't notice it again until it comes up again? and then again?

Let's be real, everyone would love to be 100 % their best self at all times however life is hard! I am here to offer traditional therapeutic approaches if you are suffering with anxiety, depression, mood disturbances, grief, relationship issues, life changes or you are looking for a more general overall life tuneup.

My commitment to a person-centered approach leads me to seek clients who seek a therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect, collaboration, and tailored interventions. For individuals who have experienced trauma, whether through interpersonal violence or other traumatic events, my trauma-informed approach can create a safe and supportive space for clients to process and heal from their experiences.

We all reach moments in our lives when coping on our own is not sufficient. Therapy can be uniquely helpful when struggling with aspects of self care, relationships and/or negotiating external circumstances including with our political world. A confidential space dedicated to untangling your emotions and the origins of persistent struggles can be life changing. I specialize in grief, trauma, depression and anxiety, dysfunctional family systems as well as issues related to immigration, assimilation and oppression. I also work with couples stuck in patterns and communication blocks.

I am committed to helping people live healthier, happier lives. I obtained my undergraduate degree at University of New Hampshire, and my Master’s in Community and School Counseling at Salem State University. Lastly, I obtained my LCSW at Boston University. My early years of work with children and families were in the trenches, working in Philadelphia’s elite protective services unit helping under-served and neglected families. Since that time, I’ve enjoyed working as a guidance counselor, school adjustment counselor, and a department head in local High Schools. I am passionate about helping people succeed.
