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'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of nursing experience caring for individuals across inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. Over the last year, I have been lucky enough to work with adults and adolescents from diverse backgrounds, and I believe that every one deserves to feel heard and seen. I especially enjoy helping individuals navigate the messiness of being human--whether they're experiencing change, life transitions, or unexpected challenges. My goal is to offer a space for exploration without judgment or expectations- a place where you can simply be, grow, and learn along the way.
Hi, I’m Dwan! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts, with more than 15 years of experience supporting adults through some of life’s toughest—and sometimes most confusing—seasons. My journey into mental health started when I was a kid growing up in Brooklyn, with a natural curiosity about people and what makes us tick. That curiosity grew after my first psychology class in high school, eventually leading me to a career where I get to do what I’ve always wanted: help people feel better, understand themselves, and move forward.
You don’t have to have it all figured out before starting therapy—trust me, none of us do! Life gets messy, overwhelming, and sometimes you just need a safe place to sort through it all. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and those moments when you’re simply thinking, “Okay...what am I supposed to do now?”
My style is warm, down-to-earth, collaborative, and judgment-free. Together, we’ll talk through the hard stuff, celebrate the wins (even the tiny ones!), uncover strengths you may have forgotten you have, and find tools that actually fit your life. I use approaches including CBT, DBT, ACT, narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and gratitude—but therapy with me isn’t about throwing a bunch of clinical terms at you. It’s about you, your story, and figuring out the next chapter together.
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.
You're the one people call when things fall apart. You're good at it — steady, competent, the person who knows what to do. And somewhere along the way you stopped having anywhere to put your own stuff.
So you can run the meeting, hold the crisis, answer the phone at 2 a.m. — and still not be able to make yourself open the mail. Competence and collapse live together far more often than anyone admits out loud.
I work with adults carrying that particular load: substance use and recovery, emotions that arrive at full volume with no dimmer switch, thoughts of self-harm or not wanting to be here, and the specific erosion that comes from caring for other people for a living. Helpers, clinicians, parents, first responders — people whose exhaustion doesn't have an obvious place to go. I work with teenagers too, often the ones in families like these.
My style is direct, warm, and collaborative. I'm not going to nod quietly for fifty minutes. We'll find what's actually driving things, build skills you can use on a Tuesday afternoon when it counts, and I'll tell you honestly what I'm seeing. You set the pace. I'll bring the structure.
Hi, I’m Tina Chen, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping clients feel their best. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, and ADHD, and I combine medication management with practical tools from CBT and positive psychology. With advanced training from California Baptist University and National University, I focus on creating a supportive, collaborative space where you can build confidence, resilience, and balance in your everyday life.
I’m Jose Garcia, a licensed therapist (LICSW, CCM) with over a decade of experience helping adults navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, substance use, and life transitions. I provide a supportive, culturally sensitive, and bilingual environment to help clients feel understood and empowered to grow.
