My name is Kristi Ayer, and I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the state of Massachusetts. I have over 13 years experience in the mental health field and have worked with individuals who are suffering from substance use, depression, mood disorders, relationship issues, difficult life transitions, low self worth, spiritual distress, and trauma including military-related PTSD.
My therapeutic style is eclectic and my experience has led me to approach mental and emotional health holistically. I believe in whole human, whole story, whole life experience. My approach is rooted in the belief that we must take accountability, set boundaries, and reclaim ourselves by stepping out of conditioning and into worthiness. I am known for:
- Offering an alternative perspective rooted in psycho-spiritual concepts, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy.
- Providing a safe space to help you better understand your emotions and behavioral patterns so that you can make powerful and healthier decisions for yourself.
- A laid back approach that allows for vulnerability which fosters the awareness necessary for change and growth.
- Encouraging alignment with your authentic self by restructuring negative subconscious beliefs.
- Quickly building a strong therapeutic relationship where you will be seen as an individual not a label or diagnosis.
Let me join you in the journey of self acceptance, understanding, and love as you work towards goals that will lead you to a more fulfilling and purposeful life!

Kristi is remarkable! She is incredibly empathetic, intuitive, and gifted in aligning to your counseling needs.
She has been very patient with me throughout this past year in helping me to explore and understand myself and find alignment with who I am. Every conversation we’ve had she has offered valuable input and wisdom that has helped me to delve even deeper and explore parts of myself and my past that I never realized had such a profound impact on my thoughts, beliefs and core values.
She is committed to helping you heal and develop consistent growth in your personal development. Her calm and encouraging demeanor is reassuring and supportive as you explore some of the more difficult parts of yourself and your life.
She truly cares for her clients and is willing to find the time to be there for them when you need her. For anyone who is seeking a therapist, I highly recommend working with Kristi!

Kristi has been AMAZING! It is clear that this is her passion and she deeply cares about her clients. She has helped, and continues to help, me work through numerous things this year, in a patient, understanding, and very caring way.
She’s very responsive on chat and responds in deeply thoughtful ways, understands my issues and equally as important, understands me! Kristi feels not only like my counselor but like my advocate and great friend. I would highly recommend Kristi to anyone and look forward to continuing my work with her.
