Therapists in Wenham, MA

Wise ones have advised, "Know thyself." My work as a therapist is to assist you to do just that...to help you learn about yourself, but to learn with much more compassion and empathy than you've likely allowed yourself before. Whether you are seeking couple's, individual, or family therapy, I will work with you to understand the issues you name more fully. We will then identify resources, strategies, and tools you can use to address and manage those issues more effectively. I utilize psychodynamic, CBT, EMDR, mindfulness-based, and relational approaches, and attempt to offer a holistic perspective.

Currently accepting new clients! I have experience with a client base of all ages. My special interests lie in facilitating better communication and enriching relationships, breaking cycles of co-dependency, improving self-esteem and self-worth, and helping individuals achieve their life goals and visions. I work best with a client who has a desire to take part in the process, who has insight into their problems and who is willing to work in between sessions using therapeutic tools that I give them.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present. - Jim Rohn. If you are searching for therapy than you are taking the first step to bettering yourself and your life. I truly believe that therapy is an empowering tool to freeing your mind of self-imposed limitations and growing beyond your current mind-frame. I work with people willing to explore change in order to have the success they desire, whether it be overcoming a fear, fighting depression or adapting to life's challenges.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with a masters degree in Sport psychology and Mental Health & Behavioral Medicine from Boston University. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who are looking to feel better and be their best self by using cognitive behavioral techniques and a strength-based approach.

Most of us want to be in connection. We want to be known and acknowledged for our strengths and contributions and to be safely understood for our vulnerabilities. How can this happen? Supportive work in therapy brings that knowing awareness into play. We build trust; we listen more. Mutual respect replaces resentments, anger, and the defeat of resignation. There emerges readiness to experience comfort, ease in interactions, and confidence to handle life's situations with increased skill. Intimacy, vibrancy, and laughter naturally find a place again in our experience of each other and in the ups and downs of life.

Collaboration and trust are at the heart of the therapeutic relationship. It is important that we work together to create intentions that you feel connected to. Nonjudgmental curiosity and a lighthearted sense of humor are how I make every situation an opportunity to access and identify personal strengths to create change.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I have extensive experience working with adolescents as they struggle with stressors related to social interactions, family conflicts, academic problems, trauma history and difficulty regulating their mood and behavior. Along with this I provide parenting support and instruction, as well as family therapy. I also enjoy supporting individual adults as they deal with a variety of different concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, and adjustment to life transitions.

Licensed in NH & MA - It is my goal to provide you with a warm and non-judgmental environment to help you overcome anxious thinking patterns, life stressors and wounds of the past. I will provide you with various skills to manage your anxiety, articulate your thoughts and feelings, heal from trauma, grief/loss, and gain a fuller understanding of self.

My practice, Rooted Life Therapy, is grounded in the belief that effective therapy is meant to help us bloom and thrive wherever our roots were planted. I work with both individuals and couples looking for growth and change in their lives. I have specific training and experience working with young adults in times of transition, identity formation, anxiety, grief & loss, depression, family planning, relational conflicts, and premarital preparation. I believe that therapy is meant to be a collaborative and empowering process of understanding one's self or relationship more deeply to create a life that is fulfilling and flourishes.

Welcome to my practice! I'm Dr. Devlin Jackson, a compassionate and dedicated clinical psychologist with a focus on supporting individuals of all ages through life's challenges. With a deep understanding of human behavior and emotions, I specialize in helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and learning differences, such as attention deficit disorder.

I believe each individual has an innate wisdom and ability to heal themselves. Sometimes, we need guidance along our journey to provide us with the right tools to navigate towards wholeness and healing. I offer a unique and integrative approach to counseling that focuses on treating the whole person, not just their presenting symptoms. Therapy is a safe gateway to explore the root of our core wounds and trauma that has manifested into toxic behaviors and painful cycles such as depression, anxiety, addiction, and codependence. I engage in counseling with clients who are seeking a path of self-love, recovery, and wholeness.
