Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, stress, or uncertainty about the future start to take over. I specialize in helping men, young professionals, and veterans navigate the complex challenges of modern life—including identity, purpose, relationships, and emotional regulation.
I am Damon Neely, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and I provide online therapy for adults across multiple states who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, and life transitions. My practice focuses particularly on men’s mental health, helping clients address issues such as perfectionism, low self-worth, anger, relationship conflict, and the pressures associated with modern masculinity.
Many of my clients are men who appear successful on the outside but internally feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about their direction in life. Therapy provides a confidential and non-judgmental space where we can explore the deeper patterns that influence your thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
As a veteran therapist, I also enjoy working with military members and veterans navigating the transition from service to civilian life. These experiences often involve identity shifts, relationship adjustments, and the search for renewed purpose.
My approach to therapy is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from several therapeutic models including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Existential Therapy
Person-Centered Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy
Solution-Focused Therapy
Family Systems Theory
While techniques are helpful, the most important factor in therapy is the therapeutic relationship. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, challenged in a healthy way, and empowered to develop greater self-awareness.
In our work together we may explore topics such as:
• Anxiety and chronic stress
• Depression and emotional numbness
• Identity and life purpose
• Masculinity and role expectations
• Anger management and emotional regulation
• Relationship and communication issues
• Fatherhood and family dynamics
• Self-worth and confidence
• Personal meaning and life direction
My work is heavily influenced by existential psychology, which focuses on helping individuals create meaning, develop authenticity, and align their lives with their deepest values.
Many clients come to therapy believing something is “wrong” with them. Often the real issue is that they have never had the space to examine their experiences, beliefs, and emotions in a supportive environment.
Therapy can help you gain clarity, challenge limiting narratives, and develop the insight necessary to create meaningful change.
If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, therapy can help you reconnect with your values, purpose, and direction.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy that emphasizes emotional safety, collaboration, and respect for each client’s values and relationships. I work with adults navigating anxiety, complex trauma, emotional regulation challenges, and relationship stress among other issues.
I take an integrative, evidence-based approach that incorporates Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic and nervous system–informed therapy, attachment-focused work, and emotion-focused interventions. While my work is rooted in clinical research, I also recognize that not all healing can be fully explained by science alone. I remain open to the many ways the mind, body, and inner world interact, honoring intuition, meaning-making, and embodied experience as part of the therapeutic process.
I provide affirming, nonjudgmental care for clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent adults. Many clients seek my practice for support around relationship dynamics, intimacy concerns, and navigating relationships that may not follow traditional models. I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without needing to educate their therapist.
My goal is to help clients develop greater emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and a more secure connection with themselves and others.

Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
I didn’t become a therapist to sit quietly and nod. I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up honestly and do meaningful work, not perform or filter yourself.
My perspective was shaped by years working closely with people navigating difficult and high-stakes situations. That experience taught me that people’s reactions, patterns, and defenses make sense when you understand what they’ve been through.
I value authenticity, honesty, and being fully present in my work. I show up as a real person, and you can expect directness, respect, and genuine engagement.
I also place a high value on continuing to learn and deepen my understanding of trauma and human behavior. This commitment helps me better understand my clients and support meaningful, lasting change.

Elizabeth Hammond
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Living with an eating disorder can feel like a full-time job you never applied for. If you’re feeling exhausted by the cycle of shame and the constant disconnect from your own body, you aren't alone. Many of my clients arrive feeling as though their thoughts about food have entirely eclipsed their personality and passions.
It’s time to move past the isolation. Together, we can work toward a life where you feel grounded, emotionally resilient, and back in the driver’s seat. You deserve a therapeutic space where your struggle is met with deep understanding rather than judgment. If you’re ready to reclaim your life and reconnect with the person you were meant to be, I’m here to help.
You don’t have to manage this burden in isolation. If you’re ready to explore a life defined by freedom rather than food, I invite you to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation via my website. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward wellness.

After over a decade of clinical experience, I understand the exhaustion of carrying invisible struggles.

Therapy honors your resilience while creating space to breathe—without having to pretend that everything is okay.

17 Years Experience
Online in Boston, MA Massachusetts (Online Only)
Boston's extraordinary concentration of universities — including Harvard, MIT, Boston University, and Northeastern — generates strong demand for therapists specializing in academic pressure, young adult transitions, and anxiety. The city is home to world-class mental health institutions including McLean Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital, and many private therapists work in close collaboration with these systems. Boston's large student and young professional population drives high demand for therapists focusing on identity, relationships, and adjustment to major life changes. The city also has a significant immigrant population from Cape Verde, China, Vietnam, and Latin America, with bilingual and culturally informed therapists well represented.
