I work with individuals and people in relationships navigating grief, trauma, anxiety, shame, anger, relationship distress, parenting, adoption, identity, and life transitions. Together, we'll slow down enough to notice what has been difficult to see, better understand what's happening beneath the surface, and explore new ways of relating to yourself and others.
I’m Tori, a fully licensed independent clinical social worker, Certified Holistic Counselor, and Certified Brainspotting Practitioner. Over the years, I’ve worked with people in many different settings, but I’ve found that I especially love working with women and young adults who are trying to find their way back—or forward—to themselves.
Many of the women I work with are the people everyone else counts on. They may be successful, capable, caring, and getting things done while privately struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, relationship patterns, or the weight of past experiences. I also have experience supporting women healing from gender-based violence, including intimate partner violence and sexual trauma.
I also really enjoy working with young adults ages 18–25. Becoming an adult can be exciting, confusing, lonely, overwhelming, and sometimes all of those things at once. You may be figuring out who you are, what you want, relationships and friendships, family dynamics, school or work, independence, or why everyone else seems to have this whole adulthood thing figured out when you definitely do not.
I don’t believe you need to become a different person to feel better. I believe you already have strengths, resources, and parts of yourself worth trusting. Therapy can help you understand yourself more deeply, let go of patterns that no longer serve you, develop new tools, and build a life that feels more like your own.

A bit about my educational journey: Upon Graduating from High School in Oregon, I headed East. I earned my Bachelors Degree in Communication Studies from Emerson College in Boston where I minored in Psychology. My Masters in Clinical Mental Health came years later from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA.
Healing Across the Lifespan: A Partnership in Mental Wellness
Choosing a mental health provider is a deeply personal decision. You aren’t just looking for a prescriber; you are looking for a witness to your story, an expert in the biological complexities of the brain, and a partner in your recovery.
My name is Jessica Stanley, and I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My journey to this practice has been defined by a unique duality: the macro view of a healthcare executive and the micro focus of a dedicated clinician. Before opening the doors to this practice, I served as the Clinical Director for a large-scale healthcare organization. In that role, I was responsible for the oversight of complex systems, the mentorship of large clinical teams, and the implementation of evidence-based protocols across diverse populations.
While my time in leadership allowed me to impact mental health at a systemic level, my true passion has always remained in the quiet, transformative moments of the exam room. I have returned to full-time clinical practice to bring that high-level expertise back to where it matters most: the individual human experience.
Mental health does not exist in a vacuum, nor does it look the same at age seven as it does at seventy. I specialize in treating patients across the entire lifespan. Whether I am working with a child struggling to navigate their first years of school, an adolescent facing the pressures of identity formation, or an adult managing the heavy mantle of career and family, my approach remains the same: comprehensive, compassionate, and evidence based.
Areas of Specialization
I am trained to treat a broad spectrum of psychiatric conditions including:
ADHD & Neurodivergence
Anxiety Disorders
Depression
PTSD & Trauma Recovery
As a licensed mental health clinician, I utilize a combination of evidence-based interventions and genuine compassion, empathy, and belief in growth through the therapy process. My background is in cognitive behavioral therapy, with training in dialectical behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I have experience working with teenagers and adults of all ages in addressing struggles related to anxiety, depression, addiction, grief & loss, life transitions, and trauma.
I get so excited to watch clients learn more about themselves, build self confidence and grow as individuals. The transformations I have witnessed in the people I have worked with over the years is amazing and awe inspiring. Emotional pain can be incredibly difficult to deal with, especially on one’s own. Ultimately, we all deserve to feel better about ourselves and learn to care for ourselves in a more kind and accepting way.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been providing therapeutic services to youth, parents, and adults for over 30 years. Treatment settings include psychiatric hospitals, residential programs, schools, and community outpatient treatment centers. I received my Master of Science degree in Counseling from Fitchburg State University and earned a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study in Expressive Therapies from Lesley University. Currently, I am only working with adults.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arlington
Searching for therapists in Arlington starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare Arlington therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Arlington is a smaller community, so local appointment options may be more limited than in nearby Boston, Cambridge, or Somerville. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Massachusetts. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what to expect in sessions.
Therapy in Arlington can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse therapists in Arlington, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
