Family therapy in Worcester, MA

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with decades of experience supporting individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively in school and clinical settings, helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use concerns, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based and clinically sound practices, with a focus on empowering clients to identify goals, overcome obstacles, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I strive to help clients build insight, resilience, and practical skills that enhance their overall quality of life. In today’s ever-changing and uncertain world, many people find themselves feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected.

I offer a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their concerns, feel heard, and move toward healing at their own pace. Clients often describe my style as warm, respectful, and collaborative. I am committed to creating an environment where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported throughout the therapeutic process.

I am a Master’s Level Counselor with 13 years of experience providing direct care and outpatient counseling. I work primarily with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress related to work, family, or identity. I also support individuals navigating complex medical or developmental concerns, helping them build emotional stability and stronger coping skills.

I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Merrimack College. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive, integrating evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and strength-based therapy to support emotional regulation and insight.

In our work together, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we move at a pace that feels safe and empowering. I am committed to meeting you with empathy and respect as we develop practical tools to help you heal, grow, and create a more balanced life.

My name is Autumn, and I was a peer support for 10 years before I became a clinician. I received my master's of social work from Salem State University, and I enjoy working with people who are creative and emotional. I have worked with people managing depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma/PTSD, bipolar, and schizoaffective disorder. I love to see my clients connecting to social supports, exploring their interests, and building relationships. 

My primary focus is on client empowerment. This includes helping to identify environmental factors oppressing your growth and healing, how to navigate imperfect systems to meet your needs, and community building—because healing is not individual work. Healing happens with other people, within communities and relationships. Modalities I use include CBT, DBT, ACT, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. 

I can't wait to find the spark of inspiration that lights you up and helps you feel confident to follow your heart. Even one session might help you begin making amazing changes.

I am a Clinical Expressive Arts Therapist and talk therapist who has been working in the field for about 8 years. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings, including inpatient hospitals, substance use programs, school settings, and outpatient therapy clinics. I have worked with different ages including children 4 to 10, teens 14 to 18, young adults in their 20s to 40s, and older adults 40+. I have experience with diagnoses including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorder, trauma history, and life transitions. I also have a background in yoga and mindfulness and incorporate them into sessions. 

My focus is helping clients process difficult emotions, develop emotional regulation and coping skills. I am currently working toward my REAT license (Registered Expressive Arts Therapist) and can bring expressive therapy into sessions if the client is open to that approach. No background in art is necessary and talk therapy is also an option. 

I am a highly empathetic therapist with a person-centered and solution-focused approach. I will help you to identify emotions, regulate your nervous system, engage in mindfulness, improve relationships, and navigate life transitions. I also have a background in DBT and CBT if a client wants to learn more coping and interpersonal skills.
