Yvette Chalifoux
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.

Evolve Psychotherapy
Psychologist, PsyD
When we are struggling with our mental health, we often struggle in silence. This can be isolating and disconnect us from others. It can be really hard to seek support from people in our life and professionals because we feel anxiety, shame, or fear judgment, invalidation or rejection. Therapy provides the opportunity to step into your vulnerability at a pace that feels safe for you. Unlike other relationships, a therapeutic relationship is rooted in nonjudgment, unconditional acceptance, safety and confidentiality. I prioritize creating a safe space for you to feel heard and supported. I value your vulnerability and individuality. There is no one size fits all approach to therapy making every therapeutic experience uniquely different. My goal is to walk alongside you, explore what you are going through, and help you develop effective tools/insight so that you can live a full, authentic life.

Dr. Christina Rush
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in helping individuals and care-partner dyads navigate the emotional and physical challenges that come with serious medical conditions such as ALS, stroke, and other neurodegenerative or acute neurological illnesses. My work centers on supporting clients as they adjust to changes in identity, ability, and daily life while strengthening their resilience and connection to what matters most.
As a Clinical Health Psychologist, I offer a compassionate, collaborative space where we explore tools grounded in science and guided by your unique values. I use an integrative, person-centered approach, drawing from evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Meaning-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness-based interventions. Whether working with individuals or care-partner pairs, my goal is to reduce suffering, enhance emotional well-being, and help people live fully—even in the face of illness.
In addition to private practice, I serve as a psychologist and researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, where I develop and study interventions for people with ALS and their care-partners. My research is nationally funded and published in leading medical and psychology journals.
Outside of work, I find joy in hiking, yoga, travel, dark chocolate, and time with my family. If you're navigating the challenges of illness—your own or a loved one’s—you don’t have to do it alone. I’d be honored to support you. You can reach me directly at christina@nchpsych.com.

Leslie Bowman, Holistic Psychotherapist
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC, Over 19 years of successful experience
Open to a more holistic approach to therapy? Feel lost? Feel stuck? Having a hard time coping with a recent trauma? Going through a life transition? Unlike regular talk therapy sessions, which may focus on surface issues and provide short term comfort, my holistic approach dives deeper for longer-term healing. My unique approach addresses the body, mind, and soul as they are all connected in the healing process. I have over 19 years of experience in helping clients with relationship issues, personal growth, trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, ADHD, narcissistic abuse, addiction, other abuse, eating disorders, personality disorders and career development. In addition to my MA, I have studied neuroscience, nutrition and epigenetics. I am passionate in making a difference in the lives of my clients. I use a supportive, empathic and holistic approach to help guide our work in a collaborative environment. Counseling services are tailored to each client.
