Angelynn Lindor
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
What makes my practice unique is the blend of compassion, clinical insight, and cultural sensitivity I bring to every session. I understand that healing isn't one-size-fits-all—and neither is therapy. Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where your voice is heard and your story matters. I take a holistic and collaborative approach, integrating evidence-based tools with emotional and, if you choose, faith-based support rooted in Christian values. My goal is to walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences, gain clarity, and build the emotional strength to move forward with confidence. If you’re looking for therapy that’s grounded, relational, and deeply affirming—you don’t have to walk this journey alone. Let’s take the next step together. I offer free 15-minute consultations to help you learn more about my approach and to see if we’re a good fit.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin
As a Black, queer, transmasculine, and neurodivergent scholar-practitioner, I view therapy as an act of radical liberation rather than social compliance. Grounded in the Black radical tradition, I partner with "Deep-Sea Divers"—scholars, activists, and survivors—to move beyond traditional talk therapy and into the realm of spiritual reclamation. My approach is direct and somatic, utilizing Sandplay, Somatic Focusing, and Bibliotherapy to map your internal geography and dismantle the "head trash" of carceral systems. Whether navigating neurodivergence, TBI recovery, or the cycles of dependency, we work collaboratively to honor your lived experience without moralistic shame. I do not sit as a detached observer, but as a witness to your evolution and a partner in your resistance against a broken world. My goal is your absolute autonomy, facilitating the heavy, holy work of unmasking and rewriting your testimony. If you are seeking a sanctuary where your identity is celebrated and your liberation is the priority, I am ready to dive with you.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.

Donna M Torbico - HEAL & GROW for ACoAs
Counselor/Therapist, Recovery Therapist in Private Practice 40 years
FREE INTRO Session - to see if we're a good fit. My main focus is working with ACAs - adults who were raised in an alcoholic / narcissistic family. The long-term goal is to uncover your True Self, develop a Loving Parent voice, heal the Wounded Child, & encourage the Healthy Child to shine.
Together we identify the harsh beliefs you absorbed from your family, school & religion, and work on transforming them into positive do-able ‘rules’ to live by.
EXP: “I know what I know”, “I have a right to my needs”, “”There’s no such thing as perfect”…..
I also provide a safe place for you to experience painful or joyful emotions you weren't allowed to feel growing up. ACA Recovery work is about facing the reality of early damage, and working to overcome the after-effects.
“Trying to flourish in an atmosphere of criticism is like trying to get sober in a bar.”

New Bedford is a southeastern Massachusetts city with one of the most distinctive identities of any American city of its size—Herman Melville's Moby-Dick opens here, and the city was once the richest per capita in America thanks to its whaling industry—now home to the highest-volume commercial fishing port in the United States by dollar value, with an economy still anchored by fishing, manufacturing, and logistics. The city has a large Cape Verdean-American community (one of the largest in the world outside Cape Verde), as well as significant Portuguese and Brazilian populations, and the intersection of these communities' mental health needs—including the specific experiences of Cape Verdean identity, immigration, and intergenerational stress—creates important considerations for culturally competent care. Southcoast Health provides behavioral health services, and community health organizations serve the diverse population. Common therapy concerns include fishing industry occupational trauma and risk, Cape Verdean and Portuguese-American identity and immigration stress, economic anxiety, substance use (New Bedford has been significantly affected by opioids), and the mental health challenges of a proud working-class city navigating industrial and demographic change.
