Jessie Hunt

I'm a licensed therapist in Massachusetts with a background in community behavioral health, crisis response, and intensive outpatient programs — the kinds of settings where you're working with the full picture of what someone is going through. That experience shapes how I show up in sessions: direct, grounded, and genuinely comfortable sitting with difficult conversations.

I hold a certificate in Advanced Trauma-Informed Counseling, and much of my work centers on trauma and PTSD, substance use and addiction, and the ways these conditions overlap. I also work regularly with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and mood disorders in adults and older teens.

I draw from several evidence-based frameworks — Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Trauma-Focused CBT for trauma work, DBT for emotional regulation, Motivational Interviewing for substance use, and ACT when clients are working through chronic anxiety or depression. That said, I don't follow a rigid script. I pay close attention to what's actually working for you and adjust accordingly. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I'll ask thoughtful questions, offer honest observations, and work with your strengths — not just your symptoms. Therapy with me is a working relationship, and I take that seriously.

Your first session is a chance for both of us to get oriented. I'll ask about what's brought you in, what you've already

tried, and what you're hoping for. You won't need to share every detail right away — we'll build toward the hard stuff

at a pace that feels manageable. By the end of session one, you'll have a clearer sense of how I work and whether

this feels like a good fit. All sessions are virtual, and I offer early morning and evening availability to fit around work and family schedules. I currently accept Aetna, Carelon, and Cigna — reach out to see if your plan qualifies.
