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.

Kaitlin Joyce Therapy & Consulting, LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, NATC, TCTSY-F
Is the critical voice in your head so loud that nothing is ever good enough? Are you successful and smart but constantly feel inadequate and filled with shame? Do you walk on eggshells and constantly overanalyze? You are a capable adult who have survived childhood emotional abuse and neglect or narcissistic abuse. Despite years of trying to be "good enough", you still feel like you are doing it wrong and rely on people pleasing, numbing out and external success to try and fill you up. You jump easily at noise, try to read people and say what you think others want to hear in order to feel safe. You are not alone and I can help.

Alana Morazzini
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Healing happens when you feel truly safe — and creating that kind of space is something I take seriously, for both individuals and couples. I show up as an active and engaged partner, asking thoughtful questions, offering honest reflections, and keeping us anchored to what matters most to you. Together we'll gently uncover the patterns that may have once served you but are now getting in the way of the connections and life you want. My clients often leave sessions feeling not just heard, but with a greater sense of clarity and direction. With a background in Fine Arts, I bring creativity, imagination, and the occasional moment of levity as welcome parts of the healing process.

Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
Online therapy allows you to access treatment without rearranging your entire day to get to an office. You can attend sessions from wherever you have privacy, which makes it easier to stay consistent and focus on the work itself.
Many clients find they are more comfortable in their own space, which helps them engage more openly and effectively.
I treat my virtual appointments with the same level of professionalism that I would demonstrate in the office environment, and you’ll get the same tools and interventions as you would in an office environment. And you can also be sure that your privacy is my number one priority. I use telehealth software that is 100% compliant with HIPAA privacy laws and regulations.
All you need is a device with video capability (e.g., a laptop, desktop, or cell phone), a reliable Internet connection, and privacy from others.Therapy needs to be confidential. No matter how well you may know the person, they should not be listening to your session or in the same room while you’re doing therapy.
So, have an open mind. Virtual therapy might be exactly right for you!

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
As a therapist who works virtually, I've seen firsthand how removing the barrier of travel and waiting rooms creates space for more meaningful and authentic work. Clients show up while they're in the comfort of their own environments, reducing masking and other barriers to authenticity. For the clients I'm most passionate about working with, the flexibility of virtual care is a necessity. Virtual therapy allows me to meet people where they are both literally and figuratively.

J. Rosalyn Diehl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPPC, LPC
You might find yourself overthinking in relationships, needing reassurance, or feeling anxious even when things are going well. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling confused by their reactions or wondering why certain patterns keep repeating. I specialize in helping women navigate relationship anxiety, narcissistic abuse and toxic relationship dynamics, family conflict, and major life transitions. Together, we explore the underlying patterns that impact your thoughts, emotions, and relationships while building healthier ways of relating, setting boundaries, and feeling more secure.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
A sacred space to heal the parts of you that words alone may not fully reach. Many people carry stress, trauma, and emotional pain not only in the mind, but within the nervous system and body itself. These experiences can quietly shape relationships, self-worth, emotional reactions, and the ability to feel safe, connected, or fully present in life. I offer compassionate, trauma-informed support for individuals and couples (including LGBTQIA+ and polyamorous partners) seeking deeper healing and meaningful change.
As a somatic therapist, I integrate body-based therapy, mindfulness, and counseling into a holistic healing approach that serves your nervous system to help you process and reconnect your mind, body, and spirit. You will feel more grounded and empowered.
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you’ve been carrying things on your own for a long time. Our work together will move at a pace that feels supportive, collaborative, and safe while honoring both your lived experience and your body’s natural wisdom for healing.
