Marco Belluardo-Crosby
Throughout my career I have successfully treated people with symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and ADHD. I enjoy the collaboration with other treating providers such as psychotherapists and primary care providers in maximizing the benefits of psychopharmacological treatment. I am committed to high standards of care following the latest clinical research. While anxiety disorders and mood disorders (depression, bipolar disorder) have been the focus of my practice, do not hesitate to contact me if you feel I can help you. I have an extensive experience in multiple behavioral health settings where I treated conditions such as PTSD, ADHD, and other mental health disorders. People of all backgrounds are welcome to my practice. Tele-medicine psychopharmacology only. I do not take insurance, self-pay only.

I am Dr. Catline Jacques, a double board-certified psychiatrist. I completed my psychiatry residency at Tufts Medical Center and my fellowship in consultation liaison psychiatry at Cambridge Health Alliance. My professional background gives me a uniquely integrated perspective on how stress, anxiety, and burnout affect your mind, body, and academic performance. I work with students and young adults experiencing depression, anxiety, life stressors, and burnout, as well as conditions that often accompany these, including ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and health anxiety. I offer psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and supportive therapy, personalized to your goals and delivered without feeling rushed. All services are 100% virtual and available to adults across Massachusetts. Reaching out is a first step, not a commitment. I would be glad to support you. We typically respond within 24 hours.

Kaylee Murphy
Do you need help making your self-care a priority so you can feel less overwhelmed and more in charge of your life? I help my clients to eat better, sleep better and feel better by making small habit shifts that lead to positive results in health, energy, focus, mood, and relationships. Working with me will feel more like coaching where you will get doable next steps to take rather than being analyzed by a silent therapist. Reach out to discuss your situation and see if we are the right fit to help you reach your goals.

John Kenny
I provide psychotherapy to adults, young adults, and students with a variety of issues including trauma, anxiety, life-transitions, relationship issues, and depression. I am a therapist that believes that developing a non-judgmental and client-centered approach to therapy is key to feeling better each day. In therapy, a thoughtful review of stressors, trauma, and relationships helps to build an understanding and context around the client's challenges and informs treatment. Therapy often involves building an understanding of how past relationships and experiences inform and affect our actions and emotions today. We all struggle with things, but in therapy we will work to build a space where we can talk about those things that are harder to talk about in everyday life. I have been working in mental health care for the past 5 years and specialize in addressing trauma and anxiety, the patterns they can create, and how to feel better and make changes that you want. I work to individualize therapy . I understand choosing a therapist is a difficult and important decision. Please feel free to reach out for a free call and ask me any questions that might help you make the right decision for you. I enjoy working with a variety of cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations, ethnicities, and gender identities.
Elizabeth Marrin, LMHC
I am a comprehensive, seasoned therapist. I work with all issues, big or small. With me, you could: fix or resolve issues, reduce stress, get clarity, learn to regulate emotions, sort through life plans, heal emotional wounds, eliminate symptoms, discuss root issues, unpack deep truths, explore existential meaning, or get support. You will discover why things are how they are, and how to change. You will obtain tools and methods for implementing changes, while decreasing barriers to change. Whatever your reasons are for therapy, my goal is to help you so you can experience a more enjoyable life. I specialize in finding frustrating stuck places, including areas of ambivalence, ruminations, and spiral thinking, and give people the tools/methods for change. I use techniques from many sources. With 15 years of practice, I am confident you'll obtain the results you want and need. I am straightforward and real with people, with a warm, caring edge. I provide a supportive, nurturing, nonjudgmental presence using proven treatment modalities. I've also experienced significant trauma and other difficulties, and I know what it takes to get back your life. Note: no AI is used in this therapy practice, nor will it ever be.
Melissa DeRosa
Do you often feel stuck, anxious, overwhelmed? Do you struggle to stay motivated or constantly wrestle with feelings of guilt? Are you struggling to adjust to changes in your career, relationship, your home life or your sense of identity? When you are struggling with these feelings it can be overwhelming and you may not know where to start. It is time to start thinking about finding a therapist, another overwhelming process. When we begin to look for a therapist, we acknowledge that part of ourselves that is ready for change and strong enough to ask for help. Therapy can feel like a risky investment. Here is the promise I can make: I want to help you. I will be as thorough, inclusive, and insightful as you would like. I can help you to build skills and learn techniques to help make your day to day struggles more manageable. I have a decade of experiencing working at the top hospitals in the Boston area. I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy. Trust and respect are essential for growth. You are the expert of your life, and you already hold the potential for forward motion within yourself. I would love to help you in that journey. Please visit my website www.melissaderosalicsw.com to schedule a consult. You can also email or call me to schedule.
