Hello, I'm Mona, a therapist who specializes in individual therapy and psychological assessment. As Oscar Wilde once said, "Ultimately the bond of all companionship, whether in marriage or in friendship, is conversation." I firmly believe in the power of relationships, and that everyone has the potential to cultivate healthy, fulfilling connections with others. I know that many of us have experienced setbacks and disappointments in our lives, but I have faith that with the right support, anyone can fulfill their potential and become the person they want to be. That's why I'm committed to being a part of my clients' journey toward success and happiness. In addition to therapy, I also provide comprehensive psychological evaluations to help clients better understand their unique strengths and challenges, diagnose any conditions that may be affecting their wellbeing, and guide their treatment or special education eligibility. I'm fluent in English, French, and Arabic, and I provide online counseling exclusively through Telehealth. If you're looking for individual therapy or a psychological evaluation, please feel free to give me a call, send me an email, or fill out the form on my website. I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you on your journey.

Hi, I'm Nikki Ritter. I've been working as a therapist since 2016, and it's truly a privilege to walk alongside people on their journey toward healing and growth. I love working with individuals from many backgrounds and life experiences, and I have a special passion for supporting mothers during pregnancy, postpartum, and throughout the joys and hardships of motherhood. I believe in creating a welcoming, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. My approach to therapy is rooted in empowerment and positive psychology. I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and person-centered therapy, to find what works best for each person. I believe in meeting you where you are, and working together to build on your strengths and move toward your goals. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I’m here to support you every step of the way, with compassion, honesty, and hope.

As a licensed therapist, I enjoy working with individuals from various backgrounds, ages and lifestyles. My many years of practice have given me experience in a broad variety of focuses, including issues with addiction, anger management, mood disorder and grief. I also enjoy helping those who have chronic illness and medical disabilities. I use varied techniques catered to each clients needs which include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems, and Person Focused Therapy. Each of these and have been instrumental in helping my clients overcome life's obstacles and move forward in achieving their goals of therapy. I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship is of highest importance. This helps to empower my clients to make real and lasting changes. My mission is for each client to achieve all of their therapeutic goals and move forward in a happy and productive future. I am only available for Telehealth (online therapy).

I am Christian, a licensed mental health counselor who specializes in working with adolescents and young adults, helping them navigate challenges such as anxiety, stress, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), ADHD, depression, mood disorders, behavioral concerns, and major life transitions. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I help clients develop practical coping skills, improve emotional regulation, build confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change. The teenage years and young adulthood can be exciting, but they can also bring significant pressure, uncertainty, and emotional challenges. I understand how overwhelming these experiences can feel and believe that this stage of life offers valuable opportunities for growth, self-discovery, and healing. Together, we can work through past experiences, strengthen resilience, and build the tools needed to thrive both now and in the future. My goal is to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered. I strive to help each person recognize their strengths, overcome obstacles, and move toward the life they want to create. When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy working out, spending time outdoors, connecting with family and friends, and cheering on my favorite teams. To connect with me, please fill out the form on our website or email us at info@likeaphoenix.net.

My name is Esraa, and I am a Forensic mental health clinician. I believe that who we are today is strongly influenced by how the world once treated us. I emphasize understanding how past childhood experiences have the ability to impact present functioning. Before finding solutions, I first believe one must come to understand where issues originally stemmed from. This increases interpersonal awareness and sets the stage for working on more concrete and maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. As a clinician of color, and with in depth experience with systems such as foster care, and the legal system, I believe more than anything that the most important part of therapy is finding the right therapist. Building an alliance with your helper in a non-judgmental, empathic and safe environment is the foundation in which healing can then occur. I have over 10 years of experience working with children and their families who have had foster care involvement, and over 5 years of clinical experience working with complex trauma, personality disorders, psychotic symptoms, and specialty topics such as victims of domestic violence, substance use, childhood abuse/neglect, problematic sexual behaviors, and other forensic/legal concerns. I look forward to helping you walk down your own personalized path to a happier life. I am only available for services via Telehealth (online therapy). Please call, email, or fill out the form, and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible.

My name is Jessica Mangan and I am a Licensed Assistant Behavioral Analyst (LABA). Before I tell you what it is that I do in my work, I would like to tell you about me. I am a music fanatic, love trying new foods, a proud member of the LGBTQ community, and a Girl Scout Leader for the last few years. Growing up, I was placed on an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) up until high school due to a visual disability. If it were not for the amazing therapists that worked with me along the way, I would not be where I am today. My experience is in the public school setting, as well as some experience in the home setting. My areas of expertise include Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD), ADHD, ODD, and general behavioral issues. As a LABA, I will work with you on targeting specific behaviors that we want to either increase or decrease and create an effective intervention plan to maintain this behavior change over time. Depending on each individual client’s needs, I can provide a Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA), Discrete Trial Training (DTT), general observation and data collection, and Social Skill Activities and Programs. A LABA is different from a psychologist, and this is important to understand before considering what type of therapy is best for you or your child. I encourage you to reach out to me at your convenience, so we can start working together! I am only available for Telehealth via (online therapy). Please call me for individual and family therapy or fill up the form and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible.

Todays’ challenges can seem overwhelming. Many find that their “typical tools” of coping are just not getting them through the day anymore. I am a licensed therapist with 14 years of experience helping people gain insights into their life that help them to not just survive but to thrive. I work collaboratively with clients to help remove barriers that are getting in the way of who they want to be and the life they want to live. I use a non-judgmental and engaging style to help create insights to cultivate the right skills, find meaning and carve a pathway forward with my clients. I bring expertise in multiple clinical modalities including CBT, DBT, person centered therapy, trauma informed care and Internal Family Systems (IFS).

I specialize in bereavement, trauma, depression, anxiety, workplace issues, dual diagnosis and mood disorders. I work with my clients to create a space to share their story and resolve challenges that affect their daily life.

Hi. I'm Diana. For over 15 years, I have been engaging with people on their level. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) has been the foundational approach of every alliance I have co-built with children, adolescents, couples, and families for personal healing and growth. Whether as a clinical therapist, a social worker for minors with behavioral problems, a Girl Scout leader, or a volunteer counselor for the elderly, I have had one goal all along. It is to help people recognize their ability to live a fulfilled and meaningful life by getting to know themselves first. It would be my pleasure and an honor to meet you just where you are at, and to walk together to a life of fulfillment, acceptance, and joy! I am fluent in English, Arabic, and French. I am available for Telehealth and in-person counseling. Please call me for individual and family therapy or fill up the form and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible.

Is wholeness possible? I believe it is — with compassionate support, evidence-based care, and a strong therapeutic alliance. As a North Shore–based licensed Mental Health Clinician with a Master’s in Mental Health and Family, I work with adults (18+) across a broad range of mental health concerns, bringing over 20 years of international nonprofit leadership and mentoring experience that informs a multicultural, compassionate, and strength-based clinical approach. At Like A Phoenix, I see each person first as a human of worth and dignity, not a diagnosis, and I partner collaboratively to help navigate mental health challenges, relationships, grief, or spiritual concerns so the journey toward wholeness feels supported and attainable. Outside of work, I enjoy gardening, cooking, long road trips and hiking, reading health magazines and suspense novels, going to the movies with my family, and I’ve climbed Mount Monadnock, completed the 26.2-mile Tough Ruck three years running (earning Boston Marathon medals), and regularly participate in 20-mile Mammoth Marches.
