Therapist

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.

I use a systems approach, meaning I look at the personal, family, and life factors affecting your well-being.

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.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Depression Therapist in Brookline, MA

Searching for therapists in Brookline starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience fit your needs. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or another method that fits what you are looking for.

Brookline has a strong mental health care community, but local in-person availability may vary by neighborhood and schedule. If you are looking near Coolidge Corner, Washington Square, Brookline Village, or St. Paul Street, consider commute time, office location, and appointment times. Virtual therapy can also expand your options with Massachusetts-licensed therapists, especially if you need more flexibility. Before booking, review each profile for availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Brookline can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for Brookline therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed profiles, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you are ready.
