Today you are one step closer to a newer you, where you feel empowered and on a positive path for growth and well-being. Life has full of challenges, transitions, and adjustments. Since we can’t always mitigate or control these challenges; the key is to be aware of our maladaptive behaviors and build strength by reducing the impacts and enhancing our coping skills. These are the aspects that is within our control. We understand that not everyone can heal and cope the same way. Therefore, our clinicians are trained in a wide range of techniques. These include psychodynamic approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focus therapy, motivational therapy, accelerated resolution therapy, and play/art therapy.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD

Psychologist, PhD
Just being a human is challenging. A therapeutic relationship is one that creates a safe space to reflect on who you are and what you experience, learn to relate to those experiences differently, and empowers you to make choices about how you want to be. My work is to support you, build awareness and understanding, and ultimately to help guide you towards living a full, vital, and connected life - as you define it.

Upstream Mental Health

Psychologist, Ph.D., PsyD, LMHC, LCAT-LP
We’re firm believers that you don’t need to wait until things get really bad to start therapy. Every person is unique, and therapy should be the same - that’s why we take a tailored, individualized approach that’s flexible to meet your needs and goals. The foundation of our work is a multicultural-feminist perspective that positions you as the expert of your own experience. We take a warm, collaborative approach to help you get clarity about who you are and how you want your life to look. We also integrate evidence-based interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and relational frameworks. Our goals involve helping clients move upstream to identify and resolve systemic and personal patterns that keep them stuck and working together to find more joy. We also believe that the personal is political. More often than not, sociopolitical systems of oppression like racism, sexism, heterosexism, transphobia, ableism, and more directly impact mental health. As a result, we take an actively anti-racist, intersectional, identity-affirming approach with clients across a broad spectrum of marginalization and privilege. We specialize in working with college students, graduate students, young adults, and professionals in Massachusetts on a variety of common issues including: mood (anxiety, depression), identity development, life transitions and adjustment, ADHD, relationship issues, academic and career issues, and burnout.
