Boston, Massachusetts therapist: Dr. Kirsten Christensen, psychologist
Serving Black / African American

Dr. Kirsten Christensen

Psychologist, Ph.D.
I'm a firm believer that you don’t need to wait until things get really bad to start therapy. Every person is unique, and therapy should be the same - that’s why I take a tailored, individualized approach that’s flexible to meet your needs and goals. The foundation of my work is a multicultural-feminist perspective that positions you as the expert of your own experience. I take a warm, collaborative approach to help you get clarity about who you are and how you want your life to look. I also integrate evidence-based interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and relational frameworks. My goals involve helping clients move upstream to identify and resolve systemic and personal patterns that keep them stuck and working together to find more joy. I also believe that the personal is political. More often than not, sociopolitical systems of oppression like racism, sexism, heterosexism, transphobia, ableism, and more directly impact mental health. As a result, I take an actively anti-racist, intersectional, identity-affirming approach with clients across a broad spectrum of marginalization and privilege. I specialize in working with college students, graduate students, young adults, and professionals in Massachusetts on a variety of common issues including: mood (anxiety, depression), identity development, life transitions and adjustment, ADHD, relationship issues, academic and career issues, and burnout.

Carolyne Mburu-Gerena

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Medication management sessions are combined with brief, supportive therapy to address both symptom relief and underlying challenges. During appointments, we review how medications are working, monitor for side effects, and make adjustments when needed. Time is also spent discussing current stressors, developing coping strategies, and supporting emotional wellbeing. This integrated approach helps ensure that treatment addresses both the biological and psychological aspects of mental health while supporting meaningful and lasting improvement.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Starting therapy can feel intimidating—especially if you’ve been dealing with anxiety, trauma, mood swings, or feeling overwhelmed for a long time. I offer online therapy to adults 18+ in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, providing a supportive, non-judgmental space to help you feel more grounded and in control. I specialize in anxiety disorders, trauma-informed care, ADHD, PTSD, and mood disorders, including bipolar disorder and major depression. I also have significant experience working with serious mental illness and complex presentations. My style is collaborative and practical, focused on building skills that actually help in day-to-day life. Whether you’re struggling with panic, emotional regulation, intrusive thoughts, or the impact of past trauma, we’ll work together to create a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals. Sessions are offered via secure telehealth for convenience and accessibility. I believe therapy works best when it feels collaborative, practical, and grounded in real life. Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from managing anxiety, trauma, mood symptoms, or attention difficulties on their own. My role is to help you feel more stable, supported, and equipped with tools that actually help day to day. I have extensive experience working with anxiety disorders, PTSD, ADHD, mood disorders, and serious mental illness, including bipolar disorder and psychotic-spectrum conditions. I take a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and tailor treatment to each client’s goals, nervous system, and lived experience. In our work together, we focus on understanding patterns, building coping and regulation skills, and creating meaningful change at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. I aim to provide a non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I offer secure online therapy for adults 18+ throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts.

Many high-achieving adults look successful on the outside but internally struggle with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, or a constant feeling of not being “good enough.” If you’re used to being the strong one for everyone else, it can feel difficult to slow down and take care of your own emotional needs. I specialize in helping adults manage anxiety, rebuild self-trust, and develop healthier boundaries so life no longer feels overwhelming. My approach combines evidence-based strategies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a supportive, culturally aware style that helps you understand the patterns behind your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Through online therapy, we’ll work together to help you quiet the inner critic, strengthen your confidence, and create lasting change so you can move through life with more clarity, balance, and self-compassion.
