Though it can be joyful, it can also be a vulnerable time filled with overwhelming stress, worry, sadness, or even grief. If this sounds at all like you, please know I am here to help.

Life can look “fine” on the outside while still feeling overwhelming internally. Hi! I'm Mary and I am a Doctorally prepared nurse practitioner, mom and first responder wife. I have over nine years of experience supporting individuals through life’s most vulnerable moments and as a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, I take a thoughtful, whole-person approach to care.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood symptoms, and cognitive changes, often during periods of high stress or hormonal transition. My approach looks at the full picture including mental health, sleep, metabolism, and overall well-being to develop personalized treatment plans. I combine medication management with practical strategies to help you feel more balanced, focused, and in control.

My name is Roselyn Kwenda, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from University of Massachusetts- Lowell in 2004 and my Master of Science in Nursing from University of Texas- Arlington in 2016. I have extensive experience in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, which allows me to support individuals across a wide range of mental health needs.

I do Individual, Couples, Family, and Group Therapy. I currently facilitate a Bereavement Group which meets at my Brookline office every Saturday from 2-4pm. I also run groups for substance abuse, depression and anxiety. In addition, I have a lot of experience counseling children of all ages. I am a firm believer in strength-based psychotherapy.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes that mental health care should be compassionate, individualized, and centered around the whole person. I work with individuals across the lifespan who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and other mental health challenges.

I believe that seeking mental health care is a sign of strength, not weakness. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, respected, and comfortable being honest about what they are experiencing. I recognize that every person’s story is different, and I take the time to understand the individual behind the diagnosis.

My name is Jaime Frazier, and I am a licensed mental health clinician with more than nine years of experience working with adolescents, adults, and families in a variety of behavioral health settings. Throughout my career, I have provided individual, group, crisis, and substance use treatment services, helping clients navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful personal growth.

I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have experience working in outpatient, crisis intervention, residential, partial hospitalization, and community-based treatment settings. My clinical background includes working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma-related disorders, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia, grief and loss, life transitions, and stress management concerns.

I'm a nurse practitioner with six years of experience across inpatient, partial hospitalization, and outpatient psychiatric settings. I specialize in addiction and substance use, depression, and general psychiatry — working exclusively with adults. After years of high-paced clinical work, I built a telehealth practice designed around real life: I see patients evenings and Saturday mornings, so quality psychiatric care doesn't have to compete with your workday. I take a practical, no-nonsense approach — focused on what actually helps you move forward.

I strive to help clients by being curious, kind, reliable, and insightful. This is how I believe therapy helps people to grow, and to ultimately feel better about themselves and their lives.

I primarily work through a psychodynamic lens, focusing on a client's emotional life, exploring connections between a client's past and present, and addressing internal conflicts. I also use ideas found in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy such as exploring thought patterns and negative core beliefs.
