I use a collaborative, warm and non-judgmental approach to support and guide clients who want to create positive change in their lives. I enjoy working with clients to develop new skills to overcome challenges so that they can move from feeling stuck to being empowered. People can be unsure of their strengths, especially when they are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, and life changes. Together, we will work to uncover strengths you may not know you have and use them to support the treatment process. I believe a person-centered, strengths-based approach can be an important foundation to support clients as we navigate difficult issues. Creating and maintaining a safe, comfortable, and non-judgmental environment for each client is a priority for me. I strive to work with each client to develop skills that support their own path to wellness, as each individual is unique in how they view and interact with the world. I use an eclectic blend of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing in our work to address each client's unique needs and learning style. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts. I have a Bachelors in Social Work from Providence College and a Masters in Social Work from Boston College with over five years of experience working with adults struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, medical issues, and other life stressors.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I received my Masters Degree from Columbia University in New York, NY. I worked in psychiatric Emergency Rooms and on inpatient psychiatric units. I have been providing outpatient therapy for the past nine years. I have extensive experience working with couples as well as individuals. I feel like communication is the key to success. Changing communication styles can radically change relationships. I have worked with an array of disorders which include, but not limited to anxiety, PTSD, depression, relationship issues, gender issues, parenting and co-parenting. I tend to use an eclectic approach to therapy, as it is in my belief that no two clients should be looked at the same. I integrate CBT, DBT and the psychodynamic approach. And lastly, over the past nine years, I have been working with couples and families. I find it fascinating that individuals can have gone through the same event and will interpret the event differently. It has been in my experience that when an outside, unbiased sounding board is introduced, real change can happen.

Hello, I'm Dr. Mary Louise Mesquita and I'd like to welcome you to my BetterHelp page. Therapy is a team endeavor and I propose that you and I work together to determine how best to meet your objectives in a healthy, constructive way. Whether it's a couple of consultations to explore something very specific (such as a recent disagreement) or a more extended collaboration to tackle long-standing concerns, we'll take a strategic approach. This approach begins with accurately defining the problem. It includes identifying your beliefs, emotions and expectations, and exploring the obstacles to a fulfilling outcome. This approach also entails devising alternative options and expanding your mindset so that you’re in a better position to assess, select and implement a viable course of action. My qualifications are founded on a comprehensive education, extensive training, considerable experience and a keen interest in human nature. I have a B.A. from Yale and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from George Washington University. I was a Clinical Fellow with the Harvard Medical School for three years and I've worked with clients ranging in age from four to eighty-four, each of whom had their own compelling story and brought to life everything I learned in academic settings. My aim is to bring my training and experience as well as an open mind to our collaboration in order to learn about you, and in turn to help you learn more about yourself. Knowledge is power and self-knowledge is an invaluable asset. It is the foundation to one's ability not only to take advantage of the opportunities and to adapt to the challenges life presents, but to thrive in the life that is uniquely one's own. If I sound too abstract or philosophical, rest assured that I’m a pragmatist at heart and an efficient and determined one at that. Wish you well and look forward to hearing from you if you find that our perspectives align.
