Northborough Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Damien Alston

I work with a variety of clients with varying issues. But what they all have in common is a desire to utilize their inherent strengths. Together we find them and improve their daily life. I won't judge you or tell you what to do because I believe you already have those answers within you.

Caitlin Straubel

I specialize in working with trans and queer folks across the lifespan.

Rowen Beaudoin-Colegrove

In my practice, I work with young children (0-12) teenagers, young adults, and adults, specializing in family systems and intimate partner work, especially with LGBTQ families. I support families through difficult life transitions, painful relational challenges, and turbulent cycles of communication. Currently I provide individual, intimate partner, family, and play therapy for children.

Lauren Beaudoin-Colegrove

I work with clients who are exploring their gender identities, coming out, and transitioning.

Sarah Carr

I am a gender-affirming therapist with extensive training and experience working with trans, non-binary, and gender diverse clients, including (but not limited to!) support with exploring identity, managing gender dysphoria, and providing assessment and documentation for gender-affirming medical care.

Kc Schuck

My work with gender identity continues to grow as I have worked with a wide array of ages exploring the concept of gender, socialization of gender roles, and breaking down what gender truly is for each person. My experience spans from pre-teen to adults at all different points in the process of becoming authentically aligned with who they are and working with families/communities to empower this alignment.

Caitlyn Dunham

I have specialized training and years of experience providing affirming and informed psychotherapy to people seeking support with their gender identity and/or gender transition, including those who identify as transgender, and those who identify as non-binary, or gender expansive. I am familiar with the WPATH Standards of Care model as well as the Informed Consent model and use these interchangeably.

Lesley McGee

When my clients are functioning at their best they are creative, playful, passionate, and hard-working. They are adults aged 18+ who are interested in a holistic look at their wellbeing (including factors like sleep quality, relationships, movement etc.). When struggling they tend to find themselves overwhelmed with worry, self-doubt, and/or self-criticism. They are also curious about their body sensations and what that information may mean for their mental health.

Meg Price

I am passionate about supporting clients in overcoming the many challenges of life through a process of developing self-compassion, identifying and building on strengths, and learning new approaches to achieve a sense of well-being and peace. I have experience working with individuals dealing with challenges of anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, social and communication challenges, gender and sexual identity, polyamory, and neurodiversity.

suzie sherman

As humans, we all strive to be seen, heard, and understood. I believe in the power of connection as a healing intervention, this feeling that “someone gets me” allows for an opening to a deeper exploration of oneself. At times we may all experience uncertainty and self-doubt, face challenges in our relationships, or find ourselves stuck in unhelpful patterns. I enjoy working with individuals who are interested in understanding more about themselves and how they move through the world.

Bryan Harnsberger

My job is to help individuals and families navigate complex living situations. I do so by creating a safe place for individuals to explore their inner thoughts and actions, and guide them to better understand their roles and opportunities in the world. I specialize in working with the adolescent, college-aged and adult populations, and the challenges that come from it, particularly anxiety, academic stress, adjustment issues, relationship issues, depression and ADHD.

Allison Scobie-Carroll

I have extensive lived and professional experience in the journey associated with understanding and embodying one's gender identity. I approach this work as one characterized as an evolving journey rather than a static destination. I have extensive training in the processes associated with affirming one's identity and am happy to assist my clients in accessing gender affirming medical care.

Kaley Moore

I have clinical skill supporting clients for whom anxiety, chronic stress, depression, and developmental disabilities are areas of concern. I enjoy treating clients with physical or medical complaints using psychotherapeutic modalities, including mindfulness, acceptance, and health behavior change. I also welcome clients who wish to address disordered eating, body image, or diet-related concerns in therapy.

Ashley O'Dell

Ashley Howard

My ideal client is motivated, even when they feel stuck. They understand therapy is hard work, sometimes painful before they feel relief. I appreciate when I work with kids and incorporate their parents because it is a team effort, the parents work hard like their child is. I enjoy complex traumas from all ages and 3-6 year old most

Jennifer Schneider

I provide short-term (5-10 sessions) EMDR therapy for trauma-related conditions. I work with indivudual adults, 18 and older. My clients generally are seeing a primary therapist, and see me for adjunct, short-term EMDR therapy for specific trauma treatment.

Paul Sawyer

I specialize in working with young adults (ages 18-35) who are experiencing mental health, substance use, or life-transitional issues (e.g. beginning college, launching into adulthood, managing relationships, grief/loss, etc.). Drawing from various theories in understanding the roots of suffering and discontentment, I take a non-judgmental, curious, compassionate approach to guiding you to a place of healing and wellness.

Jessica Foley

My clients are strong & successful women (and those that identify as women) that are seeking growth and change in their lives. Often they are moving through a live transition and seeking support. Some of my clients are managing chronic anxiety and depression, and some of them are healing from past traumas. All of my clients have a willingness to bring their whole selves to therapy!

Emily Forsythe

My clients tend to identify as LGBTQ, kinky, poly or identify as having a non-traditional relationship dynamic. They are usually searching for someone to help them navigate hurdles without having to explain the nuts and bolts of their sexuality, career, or lifestyle.

Ann Wheeler

*As of 7/2022 I am running a waitlist for therapy, but have limited space for parent consultation.* The children and teens I work with may be struggling with worry about friendships and family relationships, challenges with big emotions, doubts about their worth or appearance, academic difficulties, navigating grief and loss, or just adjusting to the realities of living through a pandemic. I support children and teens in navigating these and many other challenging realities of growing up.
