In person sessions offered with sessions by phone as a back-up when meeting in person isn't optimal. Clients are welcome to engage in expressive arts interventions, but it is not required.

My focus is supporting individuals navigating substance use challenges, young adults working through the ups and downs of early adulthood, and those facing life changes or transitions. My style is compassionate, non-judgmental, and trauma-informed. I draw from CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and EMDR to help clients build resilience, heal from past struggles, and create lasting change. Therapy with me is a safe space to share your story, gain new skills, and move toward a life that feels more balanced, hopeful, and authentic. Taking the first step toward therapy is a meaningful decision. I would be honored to work with you as you navigate this next chapter.

Do you find yourself gripped by anxiety and worry, no matter what you do? Does sadness and poor self-esteem prevent you from living life to the fullest? Has your relationship lost its spark? You may be fed up with being unable to accomplish day-to-day tasks, feeling hopeless or that you are not good enough. You might not even remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you are ready for some relief. You are ready to feel more grounded. You are ready to feel capable of managing life’s stressors. Most of all, you are ready to enjoy life more and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones. Clients come to me looking for a therapist, who is warm, has a sense of humor, and feels comfortable being direct and would hold them accountable to their goals. Sessions with me are focused on examining what is most important to you, learning and implementing a variety of coping strategies, so you feel grounded and in control of your life. As an experienced anxiety and depression therapist, I want you to know there is hope, and you don’t have to do this alone. I take a holistic approach to each client and will work with you to understand how various aspects of your life may be contributing to your suffering. Email me today to schedule a free 20-min consult call. I can’t wait to hear from you.
Stacy Creamer, LMHC
I have been a therapist for 20+ years and most of those years have been working with college students on college campuses. Several of those years were spent as an assistant director or director of mental health services at a large university. Maybe you're feeling let down at school, like this isn't how it was supposed to be. Maybe it seems like everyone else has found their friend group but you only feel connected to acquaintances. Maybe you're experiencing anxiety or depression or both. Whether your concerns are related to starting college, graduating, or somewhere in between, let's talk this through together and find your path to feeling your best. No issue is too big or too small. I am licensed in MA and I am a registered telehealth provider in FL, so I can see clients in person in my Natick, MA office or by video anywhere in MA or FL. I see clients aged 16 and up.

Alyssa Rautenberg, MD
I believe therapy offers the opportunity to become who you really are. People are often unaware of all of the factors that are keeping them stuck, creating dissatisfaction, or causing distressing symptoms. By developing a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships through therapy, it becomes possible to experience your life more authentically, feel better in your relationships, and move toward what is enriching or important to you. I provide a reliable and empathic setting where we can carefully understand the difficulties you are experiencing – leading to relief, personal growth and lasting change. I provide psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. Of note, I have a sliding scale for psychoanalysis patients. As a board-certified psychiatrist I can also prescribe, when indicated, psychiatric medications – either in combination with or separate from therapy. When medications are considered, I will work collaboratively with you to make shared treatment decisions while carefully weighing the risks, benefits and alternatives to medication. I have extensive experience helping patients with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, low self-esteem, ADHD, OCD, identity questions and more. I also have a special interest in working with LGBTQ+ individuals. In addition to my practice, I’m also a Teaching Associate at Harvard Medical School and a member of the Boston Psychoanalytic Society & Institute. I completed my Adult Psychiatry Residency training at Cambridge Health Alliance / Harvard Medical School. I welcome you to email me or call with questions or to schedule a free consultation.

Devine Interventions Counseling and Wellness
I especially enjoy working with college students and young adults who are figuring out who they are, what they want, and how to navigate everything that comes with this stage of life. You may be balancing school, work, relationships, family expectations, independence, and big decisions about your future—all while dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, self-doubt, perfectionism, or feeling overwhelmed. Many of the young adults I work well with are thoughtful, insightful, and capable, but may still feel stuck or unsure of themselves. You might look like you have things together on the outside while internally wondering why everything feels so hard. You may be adjusting to college, struggling with relationships or friendships, trying to set boundaries with family, questioning your direction, or simply trying to understand yourself better. My style is warm, collaborative, down-to-earth, and personalized. I don't believe therapy should feel like someone sitting across from you telling you how to live your life. I believe you often already have more strengths, insight, and answers within you than you realize. My role is to help you put the pieces together, understand patterns that may be getting in your way, build practical coping skills, and create a life that feels more like your own.
