Find a therapist in Massachusetts — covered by insurance

Greetings,

I have been for therapist for 20 years in the Eastern Mass area. If you made far, I can assist you towards the next chapter in your journey.

My goal in my initial therapy is set a welcoming, warm and comfortable tone. During therapy, I hope that we can work through barriers that can help you better understand what you’re experiencing. Generally, you’ll be the one directing the session. However, through guidance, support and active listening, therapy sessions will allow us to spend time exploring ways for you to grow and increase self-acceptance

We grow at our own pace, but it is my experience that with counseling support, personal evolution can happen more quickly. As a Clinical Psychologist, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, and Life Coach, my background is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with an emphasis on mindfulness, behavioral changes, emotional regulation, and finding solutions.

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who is passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges and improve their mental health. I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from Anna Maria College and have worked in both clinical and school-based settings. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults on navigating school-related stress, emotional challenges, and life transitions.

I’m Dr. Olivier Barthelemy (“Dr. Ollie”), a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults and adolescents facing challenges such as anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), depression, trauma, and major life transitions. Many of the individuals I work with feel stuck in cycles of worry, self-doubt, or persistent thought patterns that are hard to break.

I strive to create a structured and compassionate space where we can make sense of these experiences, reduce distress, and develop practical tools for lasting change. My approach is also informed by a strong foundation in neuropsychology, shaped through training at Boston University's Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders (CARD) and the VA Boston Healthcare System.

This background deepens my understanding of how brain function and behavior interact, enriching both therapy and assessment. Drawing on both science and empathy, I’m committed to helping clients restore balance, strengthen resilience, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

I am a self-motivated, energetic professional with over 30+ years of experience in the mental health field. I have extensive experience treating all ages and backgrounds in clinical, residential, and community/outreach settings.

Alejandra Schraier is a Psychotherapist with a background in Psychology and Psychoanalysis. Her training began as a Psychologist in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and in 2006 She graduated from New York University with a Masters degree in Social Work. Additionally, she has completed extensive training in Psychoanalysis, at the EOL - World Association for Psychoanalysis.

During more than twenty five years of clinical experience, Alejandra has worked with patients who struggle with anxiety, depression, additions, life transition, family, and relationship problems. Working in New York City for twenty years, she has also gained extensive experience working with a global clientele with cultural diversity.

Alejandra works primarily with a psychodynamic approach that she considers important for helping clients gain insight, a better understanding of themselves, and a better understanding on how their symptoms have manifested and impacted their life.

Alejandra believes that the therapist’s ability to listen to the patients, and to see their underlying issues is one of the most important aspects that contribute to the patients insight and growth in the therapeutic process.

She believes that patient’s symptoms can’t be seen and treated in isolation, and is always important to understand how and when the symptoms have emerged and developed in a persons’s life.

I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can bring questions, struggles, and hopes. Many of my clients want to better understand themselves, explore patterns in relationships, or find healthier boundaries. I learn from you.

I am a licensed social worker in Massachusetts and Maryland with a Master of Social Work from Simmons College of Social Work and over 30 years of experience serving diverse communities. My work has included, but is not limited to, Early Head Start, therapeutic schools, supporting elders at risk, and 16 years helping clients in the community manage and understand how to navigate community living and family systems dynamics while experiencing chronic mental health challenges.

I believe a person is not a diagnosis, and a diagnosis is not a person. My approach draws on the biopsychosocial model and developmental frameworks from Erickson and Piaget, alongside evidence-based methods like but not limited to DBT, CBT, and CET. I work with you to discover which approaches feel most helpful, focusing on building a client-centered, trusting relationship where challenges can be explored and skills practiced as our therapeutic work grows and strengthens.
