Authentically You Counseling
Treatment Center, LCMHC
Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference!
I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all.
Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!

Carolyne Mburu-Gerena
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC
Postpartum depression can occur during pregnancy or after childbirth and may include sadness, anxiety, exhaustion, and feelings of overwhelm. I support individuals experiencing mood changes during this important life transition. Treatment focuses on emotional support, symptom management, and developing strategies that help new parents care for themselves while caring for their child.

Daniell Cohen Bertagnolli
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, ATR, RYT
Perinatal, infertility and postpartum challenges are a unique set of issues I am especially passionate about and appreciate the opportunity to support clients going through one or more of these issues. The silent hardships one might go through while trying to conceive, pregnant or navigating postpartum anxiety/depression can feel incredibly isolating and paralyzing. I have worked with many clients that have dealt with pregnancy/infertility related issues and I assure you, you are not alone. I hope to help clients navigating these issues with providing emotional support and coping skills that can offer ease through the process. Through sessions, I also share psych-educational information that may be helpful to understand the possible reasons for the way we feel to help reduce self-judgement and catastrophic thinking about the future.

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.
