Following my Ph.D., I received four years of advanced postdoctoral training at the Austen Riggs Center in Stockbridge, MA. Working four times a week with clients suffering from severe personality, dissociative, and psychotic disorders gave me a profound respect for the human capacity to both suffer and heal as well as experience extreme vulnerability and resilience. Working with the most severely troubled allows me to work comfortably with a wide range of clients across the diagnostic spectrum.

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 Worcester

Finding the right therapist in Worcester starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're seeking help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, or something else, look for a licensed provider — such as an LMHC, LICSW, LMFT, or psychologist — who has experience with your specific needs. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before your first session.

Worcester and the surrounding area have a range of mental health providers offering both in-person and virtual sessions. Consider what matters most to you — a specific specialty, scheduling flexibility, or a provider who speaks your language. If you're unsure where to start, a free phone consultation can help you see if a provider is the right fit before committing to ongoing care.

Therapy in Massachusetts can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Worcester who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
