Gregory Kaufman
Hey! I'm here because I love working with people and being a support on someone else's path. One thing life has shown me is that there is always a way forward--and always a way to be here in the midst of whatever we are experiencing. In this world with all its conflict, we need each other--I want to be a part of that process. I got into the field of mental health in 2001 and have conducted therapy since 2011. There are many modalities I draw from including CBT, DBT, Narrative therapy, Mindfulness, Family Systems, and work around personality types- often using the Enneagram. On some level, I feel like we can learn a lot about what needs to change without looking so far back in our history- our day-to-day experience is showing us more than we tend to recognize. However, the more I do this work, the more I realize the importance at looking at family of origin to identify patterns, beliefs, and responses that we have carried all of our life. I believe none of it is automatically good or bad- it's what we do with it. The areas where I have worked most extensively include substance abuse recovery, trauma, loss, and life transitions. I'm grateful that people have opened up to me about all types of traumas and experiences. The best feedback I ever receive from clients is when they tell me they feel safe with me and that they know I am never judging them. If you think I can helpful to you on your journey, I can't wait to hear from you. All the best.

My work is client-centered and I am warm and supportive. I am a good listener and like to reflect back the issues and strengths that are present. I also have an ability to understand the bigger picture and help clients to shift their perspective. I know that creating coping skills is important and having concrete tools can be essential. I work with clients to have a better understanding and connection to themselves and their own inner guidance. I also have a background in healing modalities and use my skills in meditation and breathwork when it is helpful. My style is eclectic and I enjoy pulling from my skill set whatever aspects are most helpful for the client. I get great joy from helping people to feel better!

Julia Lachman
Hey there, my name is Julia and I earned my LICSW (Licensed Independent Social Worker) degree 15 years ago in Massachusetts. I have experience in helping clients (mainly young adults) with stress, anxiety, depression, coping with life changes as well as motivation, self esteem and confidence. I want to acknowledge and honor your efforts to reach out for support. I agree that you deserve it and I’m glad you know you don’t have to continue feeling this way. If you’re looking for a genuinely warm, collaborative and structured therapist, I may be a great fit for you as you work towards your goals. I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) so I work with clients to identify negative/unhelpful thoughts that contribute to negative and overwhelming emotions. Together, we will work to unlearn those thoughts and beliefs, and replace them with more reality-based and helpful thoughts and beliefs. Over time, you will feel more in control and experience an improved mood overall. I carry a lot of hope for my clients and see progress towards their goals especially when they are able to continue the work outside of therapy sessions. Thus, in an effort to set you up for a better week in between our sessions, each time we meet we’ll determine together what action steps will get you closer towards your goals between sessions as well. Additionally, I am available to message between sessions and I will typically follow up with clients within 24 hours. If you’re ready to partner with a therapist who will be supportive and encouraging during this difficult and important work, I encourage you to schedule a video session so we can begin our work together and you can start feeling better- as you need and deserve.

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
