I am a behavioral health clinician specializing in mood disorders, anxiety, trauma‐related conditions, and the emotional complexities that arise alongside chronic medical and cognitive challenges. My practice blends clinical precision with a calm, supportive presence, helping individuals feel understood, grounded, and empowered throughout their care.
Don’t just treat symptoms—but listen for the story behind them.
Integration of medical, psychiatric, and psychosocial threads into a coherent and dignified plan.
You may look like you’re holding everything together, while internally feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unlike yourself. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Registered Art Therapist, I work primarily with women and mothers navigating pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and major life transitions—including anxiety, intrusive thoughts, OCD, depression, rage, mood changes, birth trauma, relationship changes, and loss of identity. Together, we’ll slow down, understand what’s beneath the surface, and develop practical ways to feel more grounded, connected, and like yourself again.
My name is Roselyn Kwenda, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from University of Massachusetts- Lowell in 2004 and my Master of Science in Nursing from University of Texas- Arlington in 2016. I have extensive experience in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, which allows me to support individuals across a wide range of mental health needs.
If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed, stuck, or worn down by stress, trauma, relationships, or health concerns, therapy can help you find a clearer path forward. I’m a licensed psychologist who works with adults, with clinical and academic experience at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. My style is warm, practical, and evidence-based, while always tailored to you as a person.
My name is Jaime Frazier, and I am a licensed mental health clinician with more than nine years of experience working with adolescents, adults, and families in a variety of behavioral health settings. Throughout my career, I have provided individual, group, crisis, and substance use treatment services, helping clients navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful personal growth.
I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have experience working in outpatient, crisis intervention, residential, partial hospitalization, and community-based treatment settings. My clinical background includes working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma-related disorders, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, schizophrenia, grief and loss, life transitions, and stress management concerns.
If you’re looking for a safe, supportive space to work through substance use, mental health concerns, trauma, or a major life transition, I’m here to help. I’m a bilingual Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor I (LADC I) who supports adolescents, adults, and families in English and Spanish. I also support clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, emotional regulation, relationships, recovery, and other personal challenges. My goal is to help you feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Lexington
Finding addiction therapists in Lexington starts with understanding the type of support you want. Addiction care can address alcohol use, substance use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs, such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care when a prescriber is part of your care team.
Lexington has a smaller local therapist market than nearby Boston or Cambridge, so virtual care can expand your options while keeping access close to home. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and the style of care described in their profile. A therapist’s bio can help you see whether they take a nonjudgmental approach, have experience with harm reduction frameworks, and describe how they support people through changes that may not follow a straight path.
Therapy in Lexington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before booking. Headway helps you compare addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
