MBCT
Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy that emphasizes emotional safety, collaboration, and respect for each client’s values and relationships. I work with adults navigating anxiety, complex trauma, emotional regulation challenges, and relationship stress among other issues.
I take an integrative, evidence-based approach that incorporates Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic and nervous system–informed therapy, attachment-focused work, and emotion-focused interventions. While my work is rooted in clinical research, I also recognize that not all healing can be fully explained by science alone. I remain open to the many ways the mind, body, and inner world interact, honoring intuition, meaning-making, and embodied experience as part of the therapeutic process.
I provide affirming, nonjudgmental care for clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent adults. Many clients seek my practice for support around relationship dynamics, intimacy concerns, and navigating relationships that may not follow traditional models. I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without needing to educate their therapist.
My goal is to help clients develop greater emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and a more secure connection with themselves and others.

Kerline Theodore
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
From the outside, life may look successful, but internally you may feel overwhelmed, burned out, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in cycles of overthinking and self-doubt. Through a trauma-informed, evidence-based approach (CBT, DBT, and EMDR), I help clients break free from patterns of stress and perfectionism so they can feel more grounded, confident, and in control of their lives.

Edmund LaBarbara
Psychologist, PsyD
As a clinical psychologist extensively trained in treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder at Harvard Medical School/McLean Hospital’s Institute (OCDI), I specialize in helping adults break free from overwhelming cycles of anxiety, avoidance, and compulsions.
From our very first sessions, we will thoroughly map out your specific challenges and build a individualized, actionable roadmap using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), CBT, and ACT. By utilizing secure teletherapy, we can do live, real-world exposures directly where your triggers occur—leading to a significant reduction in symptoms and lasting improvements in your daily well-being.
I am deeply passionate about providing culturally responsive, affirmative care. I strive to build a collaborative, secure space that honors individuals from all diverse sociocultural identities and backgrounds.
