Vulnerability: while rewarding, can be daunting. It isn’t easy to let someone into your internal landscape and I value the possibility of learning yours. My name is Sam and I work with clients to become intimately comfortable with the buried and beautifully impactful aspects of themselves. Often, the relationship to yourself contributes to how your days unfold in the world around you. When was the last time you heard or nurtured the parts of yourself that long for you? In doing so, a gateway opens up to a sense of self-worth that will allow you to experience yourself and your environment with a new lens.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker serving clients in Massachusetts and Michigan. My journey began at Worcester State University in 2012, where I earned my degree in Criminal Justice. Building on this foundation, I pursued my passion for helping others and obtained my Masters in Social Work from Simmons University in 2019. My career in the field of social work began in 2011, and I've since held many diverse roles. This multifaceted experience has enriched my understanding of individuals' unique needs.

Life is not as simple as a storybook; there's no linear storyline, no frivolous love interest, no secret ingredient to success, and definitely not as predictable as we’d like it to be. Luckily, we are not books. We are much more fluid—we can change the narrative whenever, wherever, or however we would like. When it really comes down to it, we are the author of our own stories. It is up to us to move in a way that will make or break our future.

Hey Mama... Tired of pretending you're fine? It's OK to not be OK! Adulting is HARD. Relationships are HARD. Parenting is HARD. You are worthy of support and validation, being heard and seen. No expectations. No judgement. No drama. I am dedicated to supporting new, experienced, and hopeful moms through life’s transitions and stresses. My person-centered, holistic approach allows me to develop individually-tailored treatment plans to support you in setting realistic expectations and healthy goals.

Immediate openings next week! I'm Maggie Meister, a dedicated licensed therapist specializing in supporting children, adolescents, and adults through challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, self-esteem, and sports-related pressures. With a compassionate approach, I create a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore your emotions and experiences. I believe in the power of building a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust and understanding. Through active listening and empathy, I work alongside you to unpack emotions, explore insights, and facilitate growth.

Do you feel like you can’t escape harmful patterns, are spinning in anxiety, or unable to find real joy? Are you struggling to understand why you can’t create the change you want to see in your life? For many of us, the root of our most difficult feelings and harmful patterns are emotional wounds we still harbor deep inside. The process of uncovering and learning about our personal histories can help us move through the pains that are buried within us, and towards the life you want.

I believe my role as a therapist is to build a safe and nonjudgmental partnership to support you in connecting with your own inner wisdom and capacity for growth, healing, and transformation. I combine your expertise in your own life with my training and experience to support you as a whole person (mind, body, spirit) in the context of your intersecting identities, experiences, and environment. Curiosity and compassion are core to my work. I specialize in working with adults impacted by complex trauma, chronic stress, and/or childhood emotional neglect. I also support people who feel 'stuck,' anxious, or emotionally overwhelmed.

Over the course of our lives, we learn effective responses to difficult life events and systemic ways of being in society. Sometimes, these core beliefs and skills become 'dysfunctional' and block us from experiencing our best and unique selves later in life. I help individuals, couples and families to work through these, in order to access, experience and express their own inner wisdom and joy. In a safe and comfortable space, people feel seen and heard, they heal and grow strong and experience joy.
