As a therapist who has been in the field for 9 years, I understand how complex each individual's story can be.
My clinical background includes working with individuals struggling with substance abuse, children and families in the foster care setting, victims and perpetrators of sexual abuse and assault, and clients with generalized anxiety, depression, eating disorders and trauma. I particularly enjoy working with young adults struggling with depression and anxiety who want to work on their self esteem and create a stronger sense of self-worth. I am also passionate about working with mothers, some of whom are struggling to adjust to motherhood, finding their voice, and recognizing their value within the family system. I love working with clients who are motivated and goal oriented to create the life that they want to live. I will support you along the way and help identify what exactly that looks like for you.
I offer a nonjudgmental clinical environment for clients to be able to process and identify what struggles they are currently faced with and start to unravel how those came to be. I would help to work through any experiences that you feel are relevant to where you are now and help you to connect how your experiences have shaped your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. Clients have shared with me in the past that I am down to earth and that they feel comfortable opening up to me knowing that I will support them in their choices.
Life can be really challenging at times. Most of us go through life having some sort of idea or plan of what we want to happen and often times, we are faced with obstacles that we didn't plan for. Some of those can seem overwhelming and even impossible to navigate. I want you to know that I am here to help you figure out a way to cope and make improvements in your life. I'm hoping after reading my bio, you feel like we would be a good match together.

Having had an upbringing in the suburban Midwest of the United States where uniqueness was often minimized rather than celebrated, I look forward to searching carefully for what is unique and precious within every individual's experience. Fitting-in helps us to feel secure and is often necessary in society: nonetheless what you feel, think, or experience outside of culturally sanctioned contexts is important, meaningful, and likely points to strengths you may not even know you have. My hope is that in working together you come to feel empowered in your unique perspectives and capabilities.
Gretchen Witt is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the states of Massachusetts and New York. Her prior clinical experience includes working with adults (ages 18 to 80+) encountering divorce, job loss, bereavement, physiological changes linked with aging, gender-identity transition, and diagnosis with chronic diseases (Diabetes, Lupus, Lyme, Chron’s, etc.); young adults (age 18+) who are leaving home for the first time to enter college or choose a career path; individuals who have recently become new parents; parents managing a work-life balance; parents encountering “the empty nest syndrome”; women who have recently returned to independent living following prison release; terminally-ill individuals in hospice and end-of-life care; individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (including those on the autism spectrum, those recovering from a stroke, those with traumatic brain injuries) and intellectually and developmentally disabled (IDD) men and women navigating intimate relationships involving domestic violence.
Every individual deserves to find a meaningful sense of purpose, direction, and belonging. Many individuals find themselves wanting the support of counseling following loss or change; presenting to therapy without an identified catalyst does not preclude Gretchen’s thorough understanding of and support for individuals living with the everyday burden of managing major depressive disorder, bipolar depression, anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, personality disorders, eating disorders, alcohol and substance abuse problems, and more. Individuals questioning their sexual identity, LGBTQ, and BIPOC clients are welcome and will be affirmed as their authentic selves.
Gretchen is trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). She has found the DBT approach to be widely, and wildly, helpful for clients with treatment-resistant depression and mood disorders. Gretchen has leadership experience in group settings, having led two (2) DBT groups for more than three (3) years, as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy groups, Social Skills Groups, and The Skills Systems (emotion regulation techniques for those with different abilities).
In addition to DBT, other therapeutic modalities used in individual sessions with Gretchen include psychodynamic techniques, narrative therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Culturally Sensitive Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), creative arts therapy, and expressive arts therapy. Clients interested in mind-body based philosophies (yoga, meditation, Tai Chi, QiGong), clients engaged in twelve-step recovery programs like Alcoholics Anonymous or Al-Anon, and clients whose religious faith is a strong source of support, are welcome to discuss and incorporate these (or similar practices) into their larger treatment plan while working in therapy.

Theronda has worked in community mental health settings, school social work, nursing homes, children and family agencies, community mental health, and advocacy organizations for over 10 years. Through her professional and personal experiences, Theronda has identified that women appeared to be twice as likely to develop and experience a longer duration of post-traumatic symptoms. The challenges of gender discrimination, gendered violence, and mistreatment of women directly work to undermine women's mental health. Theronda’s work has brought to light that the stigma of mental health leads to fewer women seeking services which can increase women's exposure to stress, and stress is a significant predictor of mental illness.
Theronda Myers is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Theronda received her Master of Social Work (MSW) from Boston University. Theronda enjoys treating adverse childhood events, anxiety, and depressive disorders with evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, IFS, strength-based work, and solution-focused therapy.
Theronda, believes you’re not alone in this process and together you can work to eliminate such stigma while eliminating barriers of thoughts and feelings like you are not enough and need more.

Josalin Scott is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. Her main area of specialty is helping individuals who are coping with depression, anxiety, ADHD/ADD diagnosis, self-harming, pet loss, family building concerns, and LGBTQ+ matters. Over the years, Josalin has gained experience by working with individuals who are coping with emotional abuse, deportation of family members, death of loved ones, and other painful experiences. She also works with individuals who seek treatment for anger management and stress management.
Josalin implements effective psychotherapy methods such as cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, client-centered, and humanistic approaches, which can be effective in assisting clients to instill self-understanding by encouraging them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: Therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and therapist alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, anxiety, and pain can bring life-altering results. There is no judgment, only compassion and a safe environment to heal.
"Have a particular life obstacle you’re trying to overcome? Are you working to cope with everyday stressors? Couple or family conflicts? Coping with the loss of a loved pet? Need a LGBTQ+ affirming therapist? Seeking help from a licensed therapist is the best way to put things into perspective," says Josalin. "As a licensed psychotherapist, I am committed to the well-being of all humans big and small. I am dedicated to going above and beyond to assist with helping people empower themselves and find the answers they seek.

Natasha Bavolar is a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in working with athletes and young adults on topics of identity development, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, suicidality, intimate and familial relationships, and disordered eating. Natasha has 10 years of experience in the mental health field, working with a variety of ages and presentations in multiple settings, from inpatient to after-school programming. The last four years of Natasha’s career have been in college mental health, working with undergraduate and graduate students. Her goal has always remained the same: creating a space where clients feel authentic, open, and heard.
Natasha completed her Master of Science (MS) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Johns Hopkins University. Her transparent and authentic nature is something her clients connect with easily, regardless of background, age, or interest differences. As a white, queer woman, Natasha is not afraid to name the identities she holds and ask clients how they feel working with someone who holds them, especially if racial trauma or race-related challenges are what bring them to therapy. It is Natasha’s passion to help clients identify the puzzle they are stuck on, help them rearrange the pieces so they may see them in a different way, and ultimately allow them to see they had the skills within them all along. They just needed some help to find them once again.
Natasha will carry the pain with you, sit in the dark alongside you, and hold onto the hope for you until you are ready to carry it again for yourself. The first step, reaching out, is often the hardest and, in Natasha’s opinion, the bravest step of the therapeutic process. It requires a vulnerability and a naming of something that is often so hard to come to grips with–especially when you live in such an individualistic society. You are not weak, you are not wrong, you are not broken. If you are deciding whether or not to try, or try again, Natasha will meet you where you are and you will figure out where to go next, together. She utilizes techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), and strengths-based philosophies while being open to incorporating other modalities in order to meet your goals. Your goals are Natasha’s goals; you will co-create a plan to tackle your challenges together, evolving your sessions to ensure you are getting what you need to get to where you want to go.

Award-winning therapy & psychiatry
Child therapy, also known as counseling for kids, helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst kids include behavioral issues, trauma, bullying, depression, and anxiety. All ages of children can attend and benefit from child therapy at Thriveworks Waltham.
Child therapy works by using multiple techniques tailored to fit the child’s needs based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve play therapy for younger kids or cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks child therapists in Waltham, MA have the expertise and experience to help kids at their level.
Child therapy is a type of therapy meant for clients within a specific age group, while play therapy is an approach to therapy that helps children with self-expression and stress relief, among others. Play therapy is a technique that is often used in child therapy to help children express what’s running through their minds when they do not have the words to express their thoughts and emotions. It can get children to express what’s wrong, what might be causing unwanted behaviors, or what they might need in a way that is accessible to them so that therapists can then work to treat the issue.
It’s not always obvious when a child should see a therapist for their behavior, though in the midst of challenges like divorce, loss, bullying, and other mental health conditions, it’s often a good idea to seek it out. Common behaviors that can indicate a need for child therapy include separation anxiety, bedwetting (at inappropriate ages), and agitation/excessive irritability — especially if it reaches a point of physical violence.
Cognitive behavioral therapy at Thriveworks in Waltham, MA is one of the best types of therapy for children. However, it can be administered in child therapy sessions in a variety of ways that are more accessible to young minds, such as play therapy.
Child therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of child therapy depends on your child’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, child therapy sessions will last for several months.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
