Hello, my name is Carolann and I am looking forward to working with you! As human beings, we experience peaks and valleys within our lives that may result in various experiences and feelings. When things are going well, we can feel happy, content, thankful, and even elated. When things are not going well, we can feel down, sad, overwhelmed, and alone. We all deserve to live with the most happiness possible within our lives, but life often brings with it enormous unwanted challenges that result in bringing us down. If you are not feeling emotionally/mentally well as you desire, I am here to help you!
I have over 25-years’ experience in the behavioral health field using my various skills within providing individual, family, and couples therapy, clinical case management and clinical supervision. My therapeutic style is eclectic as I adapt my work in therapy sessions according to your needs. "Believing in yourself is a great first step!"
Some of my techniques include DBT, CBT, (TF-CBT), motivational interviewing, solution focused therapy, family dynamics, interpersonal/relational advocacy & therapy, and clinical case management. I am very client centered and desire for you to feel comfortable throughout our time on your therapeutic journey.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Adult Gerontology Nurse Practitioner with advanced training in diagnosing and treating mental health as well as medical conditions across the lifespan. I earned my graduate degree in psychiatric nursing and have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, giving me a broad perspective on mental health care. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, and ADHD. I work with adults and adolescents, and I’m experienced in supporting individuals navigating different mental health conditions.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Boston
Finding OCD therapists in Boston starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based approach for OCD, and many people also look for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, and related stress. Not all therapists who list OCD have specific ERP training, so review each bio for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Boston has many mental health care options across neighborhoods like Back Bay, Cambridge, Fenway, and the South End, which can make it harder to narrow your search. If you want in-person OCD therapy near you, consider commute time, transit access, and office location. If you prefer virtual sessions, you may have more scheduling options across Massachusetts. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how clearly they describe their approach to OCD therapy.
Therapy in Boston can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Headway helps you compare OCD therapists in Boston who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
