Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


I bring an authentic presence to the therapeutic partnership, and am prepared to meet you where you are at- it's your time, so I value human-centered work. My approach is often described as relaxed, nonjudgmental and meaningful, but dynamic enough to adapt to the specific needs of my clients.

As a licensed social worker with over 11 years of experience across diverse populations

and life challenges, I have developed a deep understanding of how person, environment,

and context all shape our wellbeing. I have supported individuals and families navigating

anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, life transitions, and questions of identity. My approach

is strength-based at its core: I see you as the expert in your own life, and my role is to

help you build on what already works while navigating what feels stuck. I am now focused

on supporting adults in individual therapy, and I would love to connect with you.

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.

Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker | Certified Dementia Practitioner

Boston, MA | In-Person & Telehealth Sessions

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) with more than two decades of clinical experience helping adults navigate complex emotional, relational, and medical challenges. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Social Work from Boston College and have dedicated my career to providing thoughtful, evidence-based care rooted in authenticity, compassion, and the belief that genuine change is possible at every stage of life.

My areas of specialization include anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, medical conditions, LGBTQ+ identity and relationships, grief and loss, end-of-life issues, and advanced care planning. My integrative approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and a Humanistic framework. I believe that movement is medicine, and that healing emerges through the mind–body connection — where awareness, purpose, and action intersect.

As a gay clinician, I am deeply committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where clients can explore identity, relationships, and resilience with honesty and respect. I strive to help each person cultivate balance, clarity, and a renewed sense of possibility in their lives.

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


I'm Paul KiYoung Song, a bilingual Korean American therapist based in Boston. I've

spent 8+ years working in mental health — from research to hospital outpatient

psychiatry at Boston Medical Center and Tufts Medicine — and I now work

exclusively via telehealth across Massachusetts. I'm native in both English and

Korean, and I have real personal experience navigating multiple cultures, having

lived and worked in the U.S., Korea, and Hong Kong. That background isn't just

context — it shapes how I listen, what I pick up on, and how I work with clients who are carrying the weight of dual-cultural expectations alongside everything else. I

specialize in anxiety, OCD, and depression. I accept Aetna, Cigna, and

Carelon, and I offer a sliding scale for those who qualify.

Shirline Jean

Shirline Jean

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Massachusetts


With over 15 years of nursing experience, my passion for psychiatry began early in my nursing career as I witnessed patients transform their lives through healing, self-discovery, and resilience. It is profoundly humbling meeting someone at their lowest point and having the privilege of walking alongside them as they do the work to become their best selves.

I work with adults ages 18 to 60 from all walks of life, with a special focus on individuals who are often overlooked, misunderstood, or silently struggling. Many of the people I work with appear “put together” on the outside—successful, dependable, and strong—while internally feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or barely holding it together.

I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, to immigrant parents from Haiti, and my cultural background plays an important role in who I am as a provider. Being deeply connected to both Haitian and American cultures has given me a broad perspective and a deep appreciation for cultural identity, family systems, and the shared human experience. At the core, struggle looks very similar across cultures—and everyone deserves care that is respectful, culturally responsive, and compassionate.

Jessica Wagner

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


Hi, I’m Jessica, psychotherapist and founder of A Wholehearted Way Counseling. I work with individuals and couples who are moving through periods of anxiety or depression that often show up during life transitions, including perinatal and postpartum experiences, grief and loss, identity shifts, and relationship challenges whether in monogamous or non-monogamous partnerships.

I know that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I aim to offer a warm, grounded space where you don’t have to navigate these experiences alone and can begin to feel more supported, understood, and connected to yourself.
