Grief counselors and therapists in Wellesley, MA

Most people arrive at therapy carrying something they've never said out loud. My job is to make saying it possible by being someone worth trusting with it.

I've been a practicing counselor for over a decade. I also teach and supervise the next generation of therapists, which keeps me sharp and current. But experience and credentials aren't what makes the work good. What makes therapy work is that I'm a real person in the room with you: direct when that helps, quiet when that helps more. I will never ask you to do something I'm not willing to do myself.

My education isn't limited to my degrees. My clients have taught me more about resilience, compassion, and what it means to live fully than any program did. I hold that as sacred, and I take you as seriously as I take that.

With over 15 years of experience, I believe in considering the unique perspectives and experiences of each individual and tailoring the counseling process to your needs and context.

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. I've been practicing for 15 years, and my main focus is to help alleviate your pain, whether it be from depression, anxiety, trauma, or dissociation. I've excelled myself in and places great value on serving clients from diverse racial, gender, and sexual backgrounds. I am Deaf and fluent in American Sign Language.

My name is Kristen Buckley. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) dedicated to supporting adults as they navigate life’s challenges and work toward meaningful, lasting change. My practice focuses on treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and substance use, using a compassionate, client-centered approach tailored to each individual’s unique experiences and goals.

I work with people of all ages who are trying to make sense of what's going on in their lives and figure out what needs to change. They may be dealing with stress, relationship difficulties, major transitions, attention or learning difficulties, or patterns they've struggled to change on their own. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years working in business and other practical, people-focused roles, which gave me a firsthand understanding of the competing demands and pressures of everyday life.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in the Tampa Bay Area and provide therapy in Florida and Massachusetts. I have over 12 years of experience in the mental health field.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 25 years' experience, who specializes in helping adults learn skill to cope with anxiety, trauma, depression and difficult relationship experiences, including narcissistic abuse and coercive control.

Clients often tell me they feel deeply heard, validated, and understood in our work together. I balance insight oriented exploration with practical tools you can use in your daily life.

Hi, I'm Kimberly. I work with adults carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use, often alongside each other. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I draw on my clinical background to help you understand what you're bringing into each session and build goals that fit your life. I'd love to be part of your next step forward.

I am a down-to-earth, approachable therapist with over a decade of experience supporting teenagers, young adults, and their families. Many clients arrive hesitant about therapy but quickly find a comfortable, nonjudgmental space where they can talk about anything. I strive to be responsive to each person’s life experiences, including gender- and race-based toxic stress and trauma. I completed my training at Boston University and spent several years working with a multidisciplinary team at a safety-net hospital.
