Mental healthcare has been a lifelong passion of mine, and I am committed to helping others. My therapeutic style builds on my compassionate, empathetic, and attentive nature. In the past, I have worked well with clients with anxiety, complex trauma, PTSD, narcissistic abuse, personality and/or mood disorders. I genuinely care about the people who entrust me within my therapy practice and consider being a therapist one of the greatest privileges of my life.

Hi there! I’m Mora and I’m a queer therapist committed to helping people take back the reins of their lives. I’m a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC); however, my specialty areas are not exclusive to addiction. I support clients through anxiety, negative thought patterns, and relationship issues.
How long have you been telling yourself, “I’ll figure it out tomorrow”? When you're struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, or the weight of life's challenges, it's easy to feel stuck between wanting things to change and not knowing how to make it happen. You may be exhausted from carrying it all on your own. I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you can be honest about what you're facing, explore what's holding you back, and begin creating a path forward that feels right for you.
Greetings,
I have been for therapist for 20 years in the Eastern Mass area. If you made far, I can assist you towards the next chapter in your journey.
