Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When anxiety interferes with performance, it can feel frustrating and discouraging. By learning to work with anxiety rather than fight against it, you can cultivate the confidence and focus needed to stay in flow and perform at your best. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening in your autonomic nervous system and develop practical tools to help you find your optimal zone—where you can accelerate when needed, ease up when it’s time to recover, and consistently access your highest potential.

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.
