Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist, I draw on mind-body approaches and other evidence-based therapies to help people navigate anxiety, stress, stress related health challenges, life transitions, depression, grief, relationship issues, and times of feeling stuck. Over more than three decades in practice, I’ve witnessed the profound capacity we each have to heal and grow through therapy. I view this work as a collaborative process—one grounded in safety, trust, and genuine connection—where together we can explore how to help you move toward greater balance, resilience, and fulfillment. When the mind, body, and heart come into alignment, new possibilities for living fully begin to emerge.

Yvette Chalifoux M.A., LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
After over a decade of clinical experience, I understand the exhaustion of carrying invisible struggles. Whether you're navigating anxiety, high achiever anxiety & perfectionism, codependency, everyday stress, life changes, issues within your relationship, or drowning in everyone else's needs but your own, you deserve more than just surviving to keep it all together. Therapy honors your resilience while creating space to breathe—without having to pretend that everything is okay. In our sessions together, you'll discover what becomes possible when you no longer carry every burden alone.

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.
