Luanne Baker

I taught Interpersonal Communication before getting my clinical license. I wanted more individual work with children/adolescents/adults. As Clinical Director of Social Workers in a psychiatric hospital and clinician at the Lahey Clinic, I saw of how trauma & medical issues impact us. I've done private practice 13 years.

My life-long interest in brain development and function informs my practice for mind & body, somatic work, and emotional treatment . I'm humbled to be a part of your journey.

I'm a psycho-dynamic, strengths based therapist. I will listen to the issues that brought you to therapy in the larger context of your life with a focus on known and forgotten strengths, resources and supports.

I do a thorough assessment before we identify your desired goals for therapy. I try to end each session with some "homework" for your consideration. We will discuss the effects and modify these at the next session based on your feelings & feedback.
