Therapists for college students near Cambridge, MA

Accepting new clients! At the center of my work is the belief that healing happens through connection—therapy begins with a space that feels safe, compassionate, and authentically supportive. I work with adults and young adults who are navigating life changes, anxiety, depression, identity questions, relationship challenges, and the ongoing work of self-discovery. I am affirming of LGBTQ+ identities, supportive of neurodiverse experiences, and committed to practicing in ways that are inclusive, culturally attuned, and trauma-informed. My style is person-centered and strengths-focused, rooted in humanistic values. I support clients in making sense of their experiences, discovering meaning, and reconnecting with what matters most to them. In addition to my general practice, I also support caregivers, siblings, and parents of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, offering space for emotional processing and deeper understanding. I see therapy as a collaborative journey, an opportunity to explore meaning, reclaim personal narratives, and cultivate resilience. Each person brings their own wisdom, and I’m honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater clarity. Please reach out with any questions you may have about the therapeutic process or working with me!

You deserve to receive the highest quality, evidence-based care available. As a dedicated Cognitive Behavioral Therapist who specializes in health psychology and behavioral medicine (coping with chronic illnesses, injuries, and diseases), we will work together to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to improve your emotional well-being and quality of life. These methods have been shown to work, and I tailor our work to your specific needs. Using a compassionate, person-centered approach, I work with clients to achieve their unique goals for therapy. I am fully licensed in MA and telehealth licensed in FL. Based on my work and research at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, I think about well-being through a psychological, biological, social, structural, and cultural lens. In addition to providing CBT-based psychotherapy, I also utilize motivational interviewing, acceptance-based skills, mindfulness, relaxation, and communication skills. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for exploration and growth, and provide affirmative care to individuals of all races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, cultures, and religions.

Amy is an LICSW at Therapy for You. As a trained social worker and practicing therapist, I've worked with clients across the life span and with a vast spectrum of challenges. I previously worked in inpatient psychiatric care for adults, and currently work as a therapist for middle school children in a school-based health center. I truly believe the client is the expert of their experience, and I approach my work with clients as a supportive guide to help you work through life's struggles. My work experience has included helping clients manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship stress, grief/loss, and I am particularly passionate about women's issues. I have experience with CBT, DBT, ACT, and Narrative therapy, and will work with you to discover the most helpful approach. I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your goals.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, I believe that the best approach to therapy is a collaborative, integrated model that meets the needs of the person sitting before me. As your therapist, I am here to learn about you – your experiences, relationships, and insights – to help you understand different themes that may be contributing to your current stressors. In order to get the most from the therapeutic experience, I strongly believe the patient has to be an active participant in the work. Together we will assess the best steps to take based on your personal strengths and abilities. My hope is that through our work you feel more confident, secure, and connected to yourself, your relationships, and your goals. To reach these goals, I incorporate various evidence-based practices to help guide our work such as CBT, DBT, interpersonal therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and motivational interviewing. These tools will allow us to explore how patterns may be impacting your life and provide opportunities to identify your strengths. This information will be the foundation for our work to grow upon knowledge and skills to help you reach your goals. If you are open to learning more and ready to engage therapy, please reach out to me today for more information.

The young adults I work with are able to safely explore difficult emotions, process current life events, and explore future goals, and what might be getting in the way of achieving these goals.

People often find themselves looking for a therapist when their suffering becomes overwhelming or when their lives shift in a way that is difficult to adjust to.

My approach is collaborative, warm and empathic, and my priority is to support you in connecting with people, ideas, and resources that will support your efforts to live a satisfying and meaningful life.

Do you "overthink"? Are you constantly criticizing yourself? Are you often fearing the worst-case scenario? Do you find it difficult to get through the day without worry, stress, or even panic? Do you feel like you're not good enough? Do you struggle with your emotions? Do you often feel overwhelmed? Do you have poor frustration tolerance? Are you having trouble with a life transition, such as a new job, or stress in your relationship? Do you sometimes feel like giving up? It’s often difficult to imagine things changing. However, change IS possible!

I am a trauma-focused, strengths-based clinician with 15+ years of experience who will guide and support you throughout your therapeutic journey. I believe trust and open communication are the foundation to a strong therapeutic relationship that will help you reach your goals -- whether they be unpacking traumatic events or guiding you through a difficult period in your life. My style is direct and straight-forward combined with compassion and humor. I focus on establishing psychological safety and empowering you to create lasting positive change.

Through my own lived experience, I can deeply resonate with the realities my Millennial and Gen Z clients face. Dating, social media, politics, finances, and demands from school or work can be so daunting. My main priority as a therapist is to create a non-judgmental, engaging, and approachable environment where you feel empowered to navigate these challenges together. Just having one of those days where you need to vent about your mom, partner, or roommate? There’s plenty of space for that too. While I pull from many approaches in my work, I especially enjoy utilizing skills-based therapies like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). These can address concerns like anxiety, stress, interpersonal conflict, sleep, and more. My goal is that you leave each and every session feeling more ready to take on what life is throwing your way. If you’re looking to gain control amidst our out-of-control world, I’d love to connect with you. Please don’t hesitate in reaching out for a free 15-minute consultation.

Do you ever just want someone to talk to who is not judgmental, and will offer sound advice for no other reason than wanting you to feel better? My sole job is to help you feel heard, understood and supported in whatever area in which you are struggling. I have helped people for over 25 years make their way to a more stable and healthier spot in life. Whether you are struggling with OCD, stress, depression, trauma or just not quite feeling settled, set up a time to talk.

My practice focuses on helping clients feel safe, heard and understood in order to process current experiences. Through identification of thoughts and feelings we can then look at new ways of coping and developing skills to manage the human experience. The foundation of my work is evidence based cognitive behavioral therapy. All sessions are conducted via a HIPPA secure telehealth platform.
