Find a therapist in Amherst, MA — covered by insurance

Hi, my name is Rachel Register and I am a licensed independent clinical social worker who has been in practice in Massachusetts as well as New Hampshire for over 10 years working with adults, couples and families. I feel passionate about healing and empowering clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship issues and life transitions.

I earned my degree in psychology, and a gap year with Jesuit Volunteer Corps in a social justice setting led me to social work. I use a systems approach, meaning I look at the personal, family, and life factors affecting your well-being. My background in foster care, crisis work, community-based care, and therapy gives me a collaborative, well-rounded perspective.

"I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with experience working with clients across the lifespan—from adolescents to older adults. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and other mental health concerns.

My approach is client-centered, warm, and collaborative. I believe in treating the whole person—not just symptoms—and I often integrate evidence-based medication management with lifestyle and coping strategies tailored to your needs. I strive to create an inclusive, affirming space for all individuals, especially those from underserved and culturally diverse communities.

Whether you’re navigating trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or life transitions, I am here to support you in finding clarity, balance, and hope. My goal is to help you feel understood, empowered, and equipped with the tools you need to thrive."

Becoming a licensed clinical social worker has always been a career goal. Growing up, I constantly advocated for vulnerable populations and had a deep understanding of people’s emotions. As the oldest child and daughter, understanding family dynamics, worldviews, and individual experiences came naturally. In my career, I’ve provided psychotherapy to court-ordered parents working to reunite with their children, teens in a school setting as a behavioral health therapist, and millennial individuals as a primary therapist. As a first-generation college graduate, an entrepreneur, and a businesswoman, I also understand the challenges that come with starting something from scratch and learning as you go. Sometimes, you need to speak with a relatable yet unbiased party to process your thoughts and feelings about everyday stressors that you may not feel comfortable sharing openly. I use evidence-based practices and unconventional interventions to reach clients where they are.

Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile! My name is Mike and I am glad you're here!

I received my masters degree in counseling from Fitchburg State University in 2017. After graduating, I started my career as a trauma-informed in home family therapist wherein I worked primarily with children, adolescents, and their caregivers teaching communication skills, coping strategies, addressing safety concerns, and working to improve stability in a home environment. Since 2022 I have worked as an outpatient counselor working with a range of clients from ages 6 to adult. I love working with a variety of clients, and focus especially on treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and identity.

Hello! I’m Catherine Harvey, LICSW, licensed in both Massachusetts and Florida. I'm the proud owner of Radiant Horizons Counseling, P.L.L.C. My approach to therapy integrates compassion, individualized care, and evidence-based practices to support your healing journey. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and I utilize somatic and movement-based therapies, CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic approaches. I have a Bachelor's of Science degree in Psychology and Master of Social Work degree, both from Bridgewater State University.

I am a compassionate provider who has worked as a psychiatric/mental health nurse for 15 years prior to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I strive to develop trust through therapeutic communication with my patients. My goal is to work together to plan and implement the best possible treatment plan based on individual needs.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a passion for integrative, whole-person care. By blending the principles of integrative psychiatry with a deep understanding of adult medicine, I am committed to treating the mind and body as a unified system. I believe that true wellness requires dedicated attention to both.

In a world where there is endless advice, online "experts" and seemingly easy fixes, it can be challenging to hit a roadblock and find that nothing feels quite right. Whether it is depression, anxiety, or just a general sense that something is “off”, it keeps you stuck. And you just can't figure out how to fix it. While I have no answers, I offer a place to pause, reflect, and talk about what’s been holding you back. And most importantly, what you want to happen next.

I am a behavioral health clinician specializing in mood disorders, anxiety, trauma‐related conditions, and the emotional complexities that arise alongside chronic medical and cognitive challenges. My practice blends clinical precision with a calm, supportive presence, helping individuals feel understood, grounded, and empowered throughout their care.

Don’t just treat symptoms—but listen for the story behind them.

Integration of medical, psychiatric, and psychosocial threads into a coherent and dignified plan.
