Therapists for college students near Boston, MA

Making the decision to come to therapy can be a powerful one. I support individuals navigating the various pressures and stresses in their lives. I specialize in working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, and perfectionism. In session, clients feel a space free of judgment where they can reconnect with their authentic selves. With that in mind, I approach sessions in a collaborative way with the hopes of building self-esteem and personal agency. In our sessions, you'll feel like you're part of a team and not up against the problem alone. I also help college students, young working professionals, and athletes manage all that comes with being in a high-pressured environment. My own experience as a collegiate athlete taught me the values of teamwork, resilience, and overcoming anxiety and self-doubt-- all qualities I aim to pass along to my clients. For all clients, mindfulness may be an important part of our work. I bring in tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy as well as traditional talk therapy to help you establish healthy boundaries, control overwhelming emotions, and stay grounded in the present moment. I also have a special interest in working with athletes transitioning to life after their sports career. My training as a yoga teacher helps me to deeply understand the mind-body connection, and how identity can get tied up athletic performance. I’ll help you develop a new daily routine, find meaningful ways to incorporate exercise at a lower level, manage fluctuating mood, and develop strong relationships outside of sports. Our sessions will feel like you are supported in taking action steps in your life. I am here to listen and provide accountability with changes you are hoping to make in your life.

Welcome, and congratulations on taking the first step towards finding support. Identifying a therapist who you feel can best support and encourage you can be a considerable undertaking. It is important to me to provide clients with authentic, non-judgmental and compassionate care that helps facilitate the adjustments you wish to see in your life. I am experienced with individual therapy, couples therapy, as well as family therapy. I also have a significant amount of experience working with late aged adolescents and young adults. Feel free to contact me with questions you may have or to set up a 15-minute consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.

Freedom from emotional hijack is found in noticing, naming, and knowing. This can be the gift of psychotherapy. Congratulations on looking for a therapist and trying to figure out what will be best for you! It can seem like it requires endurance, when all you’re trying to do is get your mental health needs met. The good news is there are lots and lots of great therapy practices! And a practice or a therapist that’s a great fit for one person, doesn’t mean that it is for you! All that matters is what works for you.

We all go through phases in life. Some days are sunny and some others with a lot of rain and storm. Anxiety, depression,life transitions,pre-postpartum anxiety&depression, difficulty focusing, and relationship problems with loved ones and/or in a professional setting are only a few of the problems every person deals in their life at some point. Even though they are part of our nature, these symptoms could be very overwhelming. I am trained in talk therapy which focuses on resolving deeper issues, to understand one’s patterns and character, relief symptoms and improve interpersonal relationships.

Hello, welcome! I’m a clinical mental health counselor that provides a variety of modalities. I am certified in expressive arts. I also work with EMDR and CBT.

I’m Lisa M Burke, LICSW, a clinician based in Concord, Massachusetts. I provide parent guidance and work with children, adolescents and young adults. I specialize in treating patients with Depression, Anxiety, Emotional Dysregulation, Life Transitions, Behavioral Difficulties, Autism Spectrum Disorder and mild Intellectual Disabilities. In 2016, I left my job as a Clinical Program Director, at McLean Hospital to bring my clinical knowledge and training to the suburbs. I care about each of my patients and spend time evaluating their needs and goals, to create a treatment plan that is tailored to their specific needs. I believe in using different therapeutic methods while treating my patients, as I feel not everyone benefits from being treated by one method. This multidimensional approach allows me to be flexible, creative, and lets me target a patient’s specific need, which I feel leads to better treatment and better outcomes. ​ I am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Interventions from Boston University and I am trained in DBT from Behavioral Tech, SPACE: Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). I also have an interest in the therapeutic impact of humor and Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT). I am trained in improvisational comedy and often incorporate humor into my sessions. My dog Kaia and I are a certified animal assisted therapy team. Kaia enjoys coming to sessions with those who request her presence. My patients well-being is my number one priority, and I go above and beyond to help each patient.
