Barbara Kellman
Pre-Licensed Professional
Cambridge, MA
Accepting new clients

As an Advanced Fellow at Clinical Alliance Services, I use psychodynamic, developmental, systems, and relational approaches in my work, incorporating cognitive, behavioral, and mindfulness techniques, as clinically appropriate. By being open to learning about the past and how we evolved, I believe we can find different ways of being in the present that alleviate suffering and support creativity and openness. I try to help clients see and appreciate their own emotions and strengths and to be curi...

Robert Graceffo
Psychologist
Somerville, MA
Accepting new clients

I’ve been part of the Harvard Medical School system for a decade, first as a trainee, now as faculty member. I'm trained primarily in psychodynamic therapy, but principles/interventions from other paradigms also inform my work, and I love working with students. Ultimately, the nature of therapy depends on the patient, what they are up against, and their goals. For this reason, the course of therapy is difficult to describe, but I think it only ever works in a context of empathy, respect, and com...

Clinical Social Work/Therapist

Accepting new clients

I work very well with young people who are struggling to adapt to college or grad school, either socially or academically. I am able to diagnose ADHD and create treatment strategies.

Sometimes this look like anxiety or depression, but it can have its roots in dysfunctional family systems. I am good at working with you to identify what you grew up with vs what you need now.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist

When people come to treatment with problems, it is important to remember that they are trying to cope with them in the best way they can.

Maxine Alchek PhD
Psychologist
Cambridge, MA
Accepting new clients

I have loved working with students since 1987. The process of discovering one’s authentic self can be exhilarating and the rewards are exponential. My approach focuses on strengths, augmenting the health that is already present. Learning how to see one’s self (and the world) in this way is a courageous and creative process. By recognizing patterns in relating — to one’s self and others— there’s a clearer sense of what’s precious to you, what gets in the way, and how you can realistically be ...

Jeff Brand
Psychologist
Jamaica Plain, MA
Accepting new clients

Hello, What I love about my work is helping people to be and become the people they want to be. When we can look at the things that shape our lives, then we can make better choices about what to do next. That’s easier said than done. We may have to pay attention to things we weren’t aware of— or didn’t want to notice in the first place. It’s hard to change what you can’t acknowledge. Whether it’s in the private corners of your mind or the broad inequalities of society, it’s hard to look at life’...

Diane Germano
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Brookline, MA
Accepting new clients

I enjoy working with students during this time of transition in their lives. Away from home, students must learn to structure their time to study and embark on a social life. This is a good opportunity to develop self-awareness and discover which relationships are best for them. Most of my clients are creative: writers, musicians, actors, artists, photography, and film. Many are introverts and/or highly sensitive people. I help them embrace their introversion as a gift rather than a liabi...
