LIFE be LIFING...You’ve been carrying a lot for a long time. Maybe anxiety, depression, past experiences, or high-stress situations are starting to catch up with you, and it’s getting harder to manage on your own. You might feel stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand or unsure how to move forward. If you’re ready to feel more in control, break unhealthy cycles, and finally have space to focus on yourself, we can work together to help you create clarity, stability, and real, lasting change.
Hi, I’m Cindy and I want you to know this: you don’t have to go through it alone. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply tired of carrying it all, therapy can be a space to exhale, reflect, and gently begin again.
I come to this work not only as a clinician but as a human being shaped by my own lived experience. I’m a proud Trinidadian-American who migrated to the U.S. at a young age, and I know what it’s like to navigate different worlds, expectations, and identities. That background helps me show up with empathy, cultural sensitivity, and deep respect for the unique path each client walks.
I’m currently pursuing my Doctorate in Social Work at Simmons University, and my clinical experience has focused on supporting adults through anxiety, trauma, life transitions, burnout, and issues related to identity and belonging. I have a special heart for clients who are used to being the strong ones, the caregivers, the first-gen trailblazers, the ones who hold space for everyone else.
In our work together, you can expect warmth, honesty, and collaboration. I use a relational and strengths-based approach, integrating tools from CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, but more importantly, I meet you where you are, honoring your pace and your story.
This is your space to feel seen, to feel safe, and to explore what healing could look like for you. If you’re ready to begin, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
Hì! My name is Ivelisse. I support clients facing challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.

My name is Peter, and for the past five years I have worked in mental health crisis services, supporting people through some of the hardest days of their lives. I strive to offer understanding, compassion, and a safe space where you feel truly heard. Whatever you are facing, I am committed to helping you move forward and take meaningful steps toward a healthier, more hopeful future.
I work with neurodivergent women, especially moms, who have trouble turning off their brain and connecting to their feelings. Many of my clients are people pleasing, perfectionistic, and struggle with their relationships with others. As someone with 10 years experience studying and practicing in the mental health space, I can tell you that having a sense of belonging and connectedness is the single greatest predictor of mental wellbeing.
Genuine belonging and connection to self or others may be difficult because you're carrying guilt, shame, self-blame, or the pressure to hold everything together. You may look “fine” from the outside while privately feeling overstimulated, burned out, or feeling a lack of purpose or direction.
Therapy can be a place to stop performing, slow down, and connect to yourself, so you can show up in connection and belonging with others in a genuine way.
