I believe meaningful change often begins with feeling deeply understood. I am deeply attentive to the hidden, stigmatized or exiled forms of emotion that leave people carrying their pain in isolation. In our work, I strive to cultivate a compassionate space where you can safely connect with and speak the truth of your emotional experience.

I bring curiosity, intuition, compassion, and humor into the therapy room. I won’t tell you who you should be or what your life should look like. Instead, I’ll help you understand yourself more deeply, recognize what may no longer be serving you, and identify changes that feel meaningful and authentic to you.

I especially enjoy working with women and with people navigating life transitions, relationships, identity, grief and loss, or a sense of feeling stuck. I’m particularly drawn to working with people who are ready to look inward, challenge old patterns, and create meaningful change in their lives.

For the past 3.5 years, I’ve had the privilege of leading a multi-site inpatient unit, supporting individuals with persistent mental illness and substance use as they work toward stability and recovery. Now, I’m stepping into private practice and writing my next chapter. I’m licensed in Florida and passionate about making care accessible and meaningful. I’d love to connect—does this sound like a fit for you?

I am Sandra Lerzundy‐Price, LMFT, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Clinical Director dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families create meaningful, lasting change. My work is grounded in systemic thinking and a holistic view of wellbeing — honoring the integration of body, soul, mind, and spirit.

With over a decade of experience across private practice, outpatient, inpatient, and high‐acuity behavioral health settings, I offer a steady, restorative, and collaborative therapeutic space. I believe therapy helps us understand the “dance” we’ve been doing — the patterns, roles, and reactions that shape our relationships — and supports us in creating new ways of relating that foster connection, clarity, healing and growth.

As a couples therapist, I help partners strengthen communication, rebuild trust, deepen emotional intimacy, and interrupt conflict cycles. I draw from the Gottman Method, Prepare/Enrich, attachment‐based work, and systemic relational models to help couples build healthier patterns and a stronger foundation.

I also treat anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, chronic conditions, family issues, grief and bereavement, infertility, PTSD, trauma, stress management, relationship concerns, and life‐cycle transitions. My approach integrates systemic, person centered models, CBT, Motivational Interviewing (MI), EMDR‐informed principles, Structural Family Therapy, DBT‐informed strategies, and somatic awareness practices to support the whole person.

At Restorative Therapy Services, I provide in‐person and telehealth appointments for teens, adults, couples, and families. I am committed to helping clients feel understood, supported, and empowered as they move toward healing, resilience, and deeper connection.

I am compassionate and eager to help my clients understand and overcome their struggles.

I work with clients who are ready to try something different — or who've tried talk therapy before and felt like something was still stuck.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, eating concerns, and emotional regulation. I'm trained in EMDR, which is particularly effective for trauma and PTSD — it helps process difficult memories in a way that doesn't require you to re-live every detail out loud. For clients who connect better through creativity than conversation, I also offer art therapy as part of our work together.

I work with adolescents and adults across Western Massachusetts via telehealth, with some of the most flexible scheduling in the area — mornings, evenings, and weekends available.

As someone who was diagnosed as neurodivergent later in life, I bring an empathetic, compassionate understanding of the unique experiences that can come with neurodivergence, including autistic burnout and sensory overwhelm.

In our work together, we’ll explore the sources of overwhelm and identify practical, sustainable strategies that support your individual needs. Together, we’ll develop manageable goals around task initiation, organization, and navigating daily life in ways that feel realistic and affirming—not overwhelming.

The world isn’t always designed with neurodivergent people in mind, and you don’t have to navigate those challenges alone. My goal is to provide a supportive, understanding space where we can work together to better understand your needs, build on your strengths, and find ways to move through life that feel more sustainable and authentic to you.

Hi, I'm Trudy Carl, LICSW. I bring over 15 years of experience in social work, mental health, and human services, working with individuals, teens, families, and couples across community, healthcare, and correctional settings. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, substance use, and re-entry after incarceration. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and strengths-based, helping clients build resilience, gain insight, and create meaningful change in their lives.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Board Certified Music Therapist (MTBC). I received my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and Expressive Therapies from Lesley University.

As a mental health counselor I am here to support you, be sympathetic and non-judgmental through your journey. Life can be challenging and at times all we need is compassion and a safe place to express ourself. I work with my patients and meet them where they are and help them focus on the areas that they identify that needs change or maintenance.
