I'm Mark, a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist with experience working in a broad range of ethnic communities, including urban, suburban and on the South American continent. After earning my MSW at Boston University, I spent years working in psychiatric day treatment centers, juvenile justice programs, community health clinics, schools, and home visits in Boston — with clients from age 6 to 70, representing diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds. I bring that depth of real-world experience, and a genuine commitment to understanding your world on your own terms, to every session.
I believe therapy works best when there is a strong connection between therapist and client. My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I'll offer compassion and support, but I'll also help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
As a trauma-informed therapist and EMDR specialist, I create a space where you can be yourself without judgment. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me quickly because I show up as a real person—not just a therapist.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lawrence
Searching for therapists in Lawrence starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare Lawrence therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Bios can show whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other approaches that fit your goals.
In a smaller city like Lawrence, the right local match may depend on more than office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Massachusetts while still letting you see a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist works, what they specialize in, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Lawrence can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and lets you choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
