Laurel Shortell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with a diverse range of individual adults throughout Massachusetts, including those in relationships of all configurations, college students, those grieving pet loss, and technical professionals, drawing on my own background as a software engineer. I also maintain a focus on clients who are on the autism spectrum, including neurodivergent adults and relationships where one or more partners identify as being on the spectrum.

Robin Okun
Therapist, LICSW
Real growth doesn't require a commute; it happens when you feel safe enough to put down the weight you've been carrying. As a remote clinician, I maintain a private space where busy women can step away from daily demands and focus entirely on themselves.
My approach goes beyond surface-level advice. As both a clinician, a parent, and someone who has experienced therapy firsthand, I know how deeply that fit matters. Together, we’ll untangle self-doubt, address the impact of past experiences, and help you tune into your body's signals. We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, giving you practical strategies to navigate life's challenges and foster genuine ease.

Maria Elizabeth LeBlanc
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.Ed MSW LICSW
A guiding principle in my work is the belief that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is of the utmost importance. Neuroscientific literature supports the curative powers of deep empathic attunement (limbic resonance), and the brain/body's ability to heal. As such, in addition to attending to you with the same level of respectful presence that I would expect in a therapist, I use both cognitive/emotional and mind/body tools to assist you in your healing. I think you will find me warm, genuine, empathic, and knowledgeable.
