You want relief, not years on a couch. Whether it's anxiety, a low mood that has settled in, or a craving you keep losing to, you're motivated to change and want help doing it. I'm a licensed Clinical Psychologist in Massachusetts with more than 39 years of experience helping adolescents, adults, seniors, and couples get free of anxiety, stress, depression, cravings, and old trauma. I came to psychology from ministry, wanting to get into the nitty-gritty of how change actually happens. I'm solution-oriented, honest, and truly non-judgmental. If spiritual questions matter to you, they're welcome here, but I'll follow your lead on whether they come up.
Seeing Patients in MA and NH. About me, For YOU! I'm a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and a Board certified Family Nurse Practitioner. My current specialty is treating patients with anxiety, depression and PTSD. Opioid use disorder with suboxone. As a provider I like to collaborate with my patients as to their desires and the direction they want to take on their journey to wellness. I like to take a conservative approach. In addition to any medications that may be prescribed, therapy is encouraged to all patients. I believe in mindfulness, exercise, and behavioral therapies.
My name is Suzy Kajunski and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with teens and adults experiencing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, family conflict, substance use concerns, friendship issues, and ADHD.
If anxiety, stress or life changes are impacting or interfering with your daily life and functioning, we can talk through what is happening and explore what could help. In my practice, I work with adult clients who are coping with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, chronic and life-threatening illness, substance use and grief/loss. I have found that some clients benefit from a supportive approach and others from more active approaches. We will work together to tailor my approach to your needs.
My primary areas of experience are trauma and addiction, and I have a deep passion for helping people heal from experiences that have impacted the way they see themselves, their relationships, and their lives. I understand that coping strategies often develop for a reason. Rather than judging those behaviors, I want to help you understand what they have been trying to do for you, while working together to develop healthier ways of moving forward.
I don’t see you as a diagnosis, a collection of symptoms, or a list of things that need to be fixed. I see you as a whole person with a story. Your experiences matter, your feelings matter, and you deserve a space where they can be heard.
Therapy can be uncomfortable at times. Healing often asks us to look at things we’d rather avoid. But you shouldn’t have to do that while feeling judged, criticized, or alone. My goal is to create a therapeutic relationship where you can laugh, cry, be angry, feel confused, ask difficult questions, or simply sit with whatever you’re experiencing—and know that you are still accepted.
You don’t have to be “better” before you come to therapy. You don’t have to hide the messy parts. You can come exactly as you are.
If you’re looking for a therapist who will genuinely listen, meet you with compassion, and walk alongside you through the process of healing, I would be honored to take that journey with you.
I think this version captures something especially important about your philosophy: the relationship itself is part of the treatment. It also avoids making you sound like you’re promising to “fix” someone, while still conveying genuine passion for helping people heal.
Taking the first step toward change can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. With more than 30 years of experience in behavioral health, I have had the privilege of working with individuals of diverse backgrounds, and I've helped adults and adolescents navigate emotional challenges, addiction, behavioral concerns, and co-occurring disorders. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and lasting change. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and goal-focused, helping you build on your strengths, identify meaningful goals, and develop practical strategies to create a healthier, more fulfilling life.
I specialize in working with adults and adolescents (ages 16 and older) experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, emotional challenges, and dual diagnoses. I also have extensive experience helping older teens and young adults navigate adjustment difficulties, emotional concerns, and behavioral challenges.
Therapy is a safe space of understanding that facilitates hope, and person centered solutions that are practical and ethically reliable. Using clinical integration and holistic interventions, we will begin to reclaim hope towards a meaningful life that is empowering and fulfilling.
