At Upstream Mental Health, we believe in proactive mental health care and the power of individualized therapy. Guided by a multicultural-feminist perspective, we aim to empower clients as the expert of their own experiences. Our warm and collaborative approach, combined with evidence-based interventions, helps clients gain clarity, resilience, and joy in their lives. We are committed to addressing the impact of sociopolitical systems of oppression on mental health, actively advocating for anti-racism, intersectionality, and identity affirmation. Specializing in serving college/graduate students, young adults, and professionals in Massachusetts, we support clients through common challenges, including mood disorders, identity development, life transitions, relationships, academic and career issues, and burnout. Together, we move upstream to identify and transform systemic and personal patterns, facilitating growth and a more fulfilling life.
