Hello! So glad you are here. My name is Alex (she/her) and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and have been practicing in the field for five years. I received a Master’s in Social Work from Boston College, with a Certificate in Mental Health & Trauma. Previously, I worked with refugee and asylum seeking populations in the Refugee Resettlement Program.

More recently, I have experience working with children and families as an In-Home Therapist and Intensive Care Coordinator and with individuals in inpatient behavioral health. I also facilitated in piloting a Short-Term Outpatient Therapy Program with Wayside Youth & Families in Framingham, MA and have been providing individual outpatient therapy the past two years to all ages and stages of life.

I also am an avid outdoor rock climber (for the past 12 years) and can support individuals who are looking for support within their own sport/athletic hobby in mindset and performance focus, trauma processing, or exploration around risk within climbing and alpinism.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience in community mental health, crisis intervention, and counseling. I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma and adversity, and I approach therapy from a holistic perspective—seeing each client as a whole person within the context of their environment.

My work is rooted in being trauma-informed, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I often integrate somatic therapy and mindfulness, recognizing that trauma is carried not only in the mind but also in the body. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their experiences, build resilience, and move toward healing.

I offer a warm, supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are—no pressure, no judgment. As a therapist with a rich blend of personal and professional experience, I work with compassion and honesty to help you sort through anxiety, self-doubt, relationship struggles, parenting stress, etc.

I am glad you decided to engage in therapy. I offer a safe and supportive environment where you can openly express yourself without judgment. I utilize CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), MI (motivational interviewing, and CPT (cognitive processing therapy). I focus on your goals and progress in therapy.

Katharine is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 8 years of experience in outpatient, school, and hospital settings. She specializes in helping emerging adults (18-29) and adults (30-65) navigate stress, anxiety, and major life transitions through compassionate, skills-focused therapy that builds resilience, clarity, and confidence—inside and outside of session.
