Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Salem, MA

Dr. Annet Kabuusu Mukasa is committed to empowering individuals on their journey to mental wellness by providing compassionate, judgment-free care. Clients need a provider who truly listens, understands, and integrates both evidence-based practices and holistic wellness into their care plan & desire a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space to heal and grow & don’t want to feel alone in their struggles; they need a provider who will walk alongside them with empathy and expertise.

Dedicated to helping empower individuals as they navigate complicated & toxic relationships in their lives. Not limited to romantic partnerships, but include immediate & extended family, as well as in the workplace, chaos can come from any direction, I want to help you learn how to find your strength & peace you deserve.

I specialize in Narcissistic Abuse, Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault. I have a laid back "let's put our feet up & chat" approach & am always excited to see you succeed!

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and genuine connection. My mission is to meet you exactly where you are—emotionally, mentally, or spiritually—and walk with you toward inner peace, self-love, and compassion. I work primarily with adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. Whether you're processing trauma, managing difficult emotions, or striving for healthier relationships, I offer a supportive space where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered.

I believe that healing happens through genuine connection. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), I strive to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients feel heard, understood, and accepted. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, life transitions, relationship challenges, and low self-esteem.

My goal is to meet you where you are. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, we’ll work together to better understand your experiences, build on your strengths, and move toward the life you want to create. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, empowering, and tailored to your unique needs.

Welcome! I'm glad you're here.

"Sometimes the hardest part of asking for help is not knowing if the person across from you will understand where you come from. I'm Mery, a bilingual, bicultural Latina clinical social worker, and I created my practice as a space where you do not have to explain your culture before we get to the real work. I work with adults and seniors carrying grief, a chronic health diagnosis, the exhaustion of motherhood, or stress that will not let up. Many of my clients are managing more than one of these at once, often while caring for others. I meet you there, in English or in Spanish, and we build a plan that fits your life."

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 adolescents and adults, with clinical and academic experience at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. I trained in medicine at Tehran University of Medical Sciences before earning my PhD in clinical psychology at the University of Houston. My style is warm, practical, and evidence-based, while always tailored to you as a person.
