Dr. Christina Rush
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in helping individuals and care-partner dyads navigate the emotional and physical challenges that come with serious medical conditions such as ALS, stroke, and other neurodegenerative or acute neurological illnesses. My work centers on supporting clients as they adjust to changes in identity, ability, and daily life while strengthening their resilience and connection to what matters most.
As a Clinical Health Psychologist, I offer a compassionate, collaborative space where we explore tools grounded in science and guided by your unique values. I use an integrative, person-centered approach, drawing from evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Meaning-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness-based interventions. Whether working with individuals or care-partner pairs, my goal is to reduce suffering, enhance emotional well-being, and help people live fully—even in the face of illness.
In addition to private practice, I serve as a psychologist and researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, where I develop and study interventions for people with ALS and their care-partners. My research is nationally funded and published in leading medical and psychology journals.
Outside of work, I find joy in hiking, yoga, travel, dark chocolate, and time with my family. If you're navigating the challenges of illness—your own or a loved one’s—you don’t have to do it alone. I’d be honored to support you. You can reach me directly at christina@nchpsych.com.

Sarah Easton
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You are about to begin an important journey to explore your struggles, connection with yourself and others, and how you can live in deeper alignment with your values. You might be challenged by your intimate relationships, you may be dealing with a chronic illness, the loss of a loved one, feeling overwhelmed or stagnant. You might want to cultivate a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in your life. I believe that traditional talk therapy can be powerful alone, but integrating mindfulness of the body can more adequately address experiences in the present moment and help transform deeply ingrained beliefs or patterns. I will encourage you to move beneath words and life stories, so experiences can be felt and understood, allowing your innate wisdom to support change. I will also integrate behavioral therapies to help you cultivate the necessary skills for building a sense of emotional resilience and nurturing healthy relationships. You don't have to be alone on your journey. Therapy is a courageous act, a gesture of willingness to turn towards your inner world. Together, we will create a safe and supportive space for reflection and change on your path towards healing, growth, and reclaiming of your life.
