Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Lawrence, MA

Hello and welcome!

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience in outpatient psychiatry and community mental health. I enjoy working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other mental health conditions. I have a special interest in women's mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause. My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care in a welcoming and supportive environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in your mental health journey.

My work centers on women’s wellness, with a focus on supporting women navigating ADHD, ASD, chronic stress, anxiety, nervous system dysregulation, and life transitions. Through working with a diverse range of clients, I’ve found that many women move through life feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, and stuck in survival mode.

As a therapist, my goal is to provide empathy and compassion in an emotionally safe environment. I am passionate about helping people through the most difficult challenges life may have. I work with people to build their self-worth, ease emotional pain, and help regain a sense of enjoyment in their life as they once had. I envision helping people recognize their strengths, then build on their strengths, to help them to become more self-confident, happy and aware.

Hello! So glad you are here. My name is Alex (she/her) and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and have been practicing in the field for five years. I received a Master’s in Social Work from Boston College, with a Certificate in Mental Health & Trauma. Previously, I worked with refugee and asylum seeking populations in the Refugee Resettlement Program.

I also facilitated in piloting a Short-Term Outpatient Therapy Program with Wayside Youth & Families in Framingham, MA and have been providing individual outpatient therapy the past two years to all ages and stages of life.

I also am an avid outdoor rock climber (for the past 12 years) and can support individuals who are looking for support within their own sport/athletic hobby in mindset and performance focus, trauma processing, or exploration around risk within climbing and alpinism.

Hello, I’m Jose — a board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate of Nursing Practice from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. My background includes years of experience as a bedside nurse in inpatient medical-surgical and behavioral health settings, caring for pediatric, adolescent, adult, and geriatric patients. Through my training and practice, I’ve learned that every path to wellness is deeply personal. I’m passionate about collaborating with clients to understand their needs, build on their strengths, and take a motivational, compassionate approach to care.

I also recognize how difficult it can be to find LGBTQIA-affirming mental health support. My work is grounded in helping individuals release shame, embrace authenticity, and find balance through life’s challenges. Whether you’re navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, or seeking affirming, identity-centered care, my goal is to support you in thriving and becoming your fullest self.

The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

Welcome. My goal is to provide support, guidance, and encouragement in helping you to recognize what you already know about yourself...you willingness to try. In this world, with so many changes and stressors, it can be a good starting point.

My focus is in anxiety, life transitions, grief, and depression.

I integrate evidence-based practices, medication-assisted treatment, & trauma-informed approaches to support recovery & reentry post-release. Beyond clinical roles, I bring a perspective to clinical work that emphasizes ethical practice, and policy awareness while never losing sight of the individual behind the chart.

I am passionate about building therapeutic relationships, and helping individuals reclaim stability, dignity, & hope. My goal is to continue leveraging my clinical, legal, and leadership experience to advance innovative, compassionate behavioral health services that create meaningful and lasting change for my clients.

I am a certified in Mental Health First Aid professional, a certified MA Problem Gambling Specialist II & a Licensed Drug & Alcohol Clinician in RI and MA.

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.
