I have my master’s degree from Lesley University in Mental Health Counseling and Expressive Arts Therapy. I am certified as a mindfulness teacher, mediator, and yoga teacher. The mind-body connection is an important aspect of the approach I take with clients. I am also trained to provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). Additionally, I’m a facilitator of Gender Equity and Reconciliation, so it informs my work with couples and relationship challenges. I specialize in working with adult individual clients and couples who experience anxiety, depression, adult and childhood trauma, relationship conflict/transitions, and mid-life transitions.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Chelmsford, MA

Finding therapists in Chelmsford starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or stress. As you compare Chelmsford therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match what you want to work on. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

In a smaller community like Chelmsford, local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Massachusetts while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to see you. When comparing therapists in Chelmsford, MA, consider availability, whether they are accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what concerns they often support, and what to expect from sessions.

Therapy in Chelmsford can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, confirm coverage for your specific plan and location, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
