Therapist With a Sense of Humor ~ Reach Out Anyway!
Workaholic by choice, dog mama by heart. Seven days a week, fueled by hustle, humor, and Pitbull cuddles. Yes, I chose this life. No, I still don’t understand why.
Email me directly and try not to overthink the subject line. (Seriously, “Hello” or “Just testing if this thing works” are entirely acceptable choices).
Every appointment gets a warm, practical “yes” from me first ~ I confirm we’re the right clinical fit, that I’m licensed to practice magic (or therapy, depending on the day) in your state, and that your insurance and I are on wonderfully polite terms. Every new client starts with a full intake session. But booking should only happen once that verification is sorted and your intake paperwork is complete; otherwise, a standard administrative fee applies as outlined here in my bio, covering onboarding overhead and reserved calendar time.
I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts and New York, 25+ years deep. I work with the complex, high-acuity stuff that takes real depth to hold: mood and psychotic disorders, PTSD and DID, the full neurodivergent spectrum (ADHD, OCD, autism), plus PANDAS, tics, and Tourette syndrome.
I share my world with a blind Pitbull ~ resilience in the flesh, navigating a world he can’t see with more confidence than me even after I have three espressos. He’s the heart behind the hustle.
I accept insurance through Headway, which verifies benefits and processes copays automatically. Private pay and sliding scale also available.
Pro-Tip: Confused by your insurance card? Call the number on the back ~ those lovely humans are literally paid to explain your coverage.
The “No-Fly” Zone: 7:00 AM sessions are off the menu.
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience as a psychotherapist and career counselor. I have worked with clients with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, adjusting to college life and career challenges. I also have experience counseling clients with medical illnesses including Long Covid. My therapy style has been described as warm and engaging; I believe in creating a safe space with respect, compassion and open dialogue necessary to building trust.
I am a psychotherapist, licensed in Massachusetts and Vermont. I work with children/adolescents (8 years and older), and adults. I have experience working with individuals from a variety of cultural backgrounds. I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing issues with trauma/PTSD, divorce/separation, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, dual diagnosis, behavioral issues, family concerns and those who identify as LGBTQIA+. To inquire about availability please send me a message.
Hi there! I am Sansan, a 9-year practitioner with ongoing honing clinical skills, big fan of chocolate ice-cream. I view the client-therapist relationship as a collaborative alliance. You are the shining center, and I shall cast you toward the spotlight. One of the bravest things you can do is check out a therapeutic journey with me!
I am a licensed mental health counselor with 6 years experience in outpatient therapy, school based therapy, and emergency mental health services. I have a vast background in human services dating back to 2004 supporting folks with developmental disabilities, acquired brain injuries, adult foster care, and homeless populations.
We all face challenges and joys and I am no stranger to either. My road to therapy began about 15 years ago after experiencing my own trauma and grief. I was left feeling stuck on repeat and I needed to take back my power. Finding my way to the other side my best side was to learn and develop the tools to support others. I lean into supporting mothers and caregivers as it isn't always easy or predictable. My special education background lends me to advocate for children and families in the home and in the community. I love to support and make a plan for blended families. And my desire is to help couples and intimate partners find fulfillment and connection.
