Stephen Medina is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 7 years of experience providing care to children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and mood-related challenges.

I am a master's-level counselor with 8 years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults through anxiety, depression, chronic stress, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, burnout, and major life transitions. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult emotions, gain clarity, and begin creating meaningful, lasting change.

Born in some respects from my wartime Military experiences, as well as from an amazingly dedicated and compassionate mother who has dedicated her life to others, my early influences have created a passion in me to help others. When they share their experiences in treatment, I feel humbled and invigorated and truly where I am supposed to be. My years of experience directing the largest State operated children's psychiatric outpatient program and supervising 70 professional staff have afforded me invaluable perspective as well. This exposure has also affords me extensive knowledge of community support systems, both Inpatient and Community based.

Hello, I'm Adam Grushey, a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor II. My journey in the field of addiction treatment is both professional and deeply personal. After a career as a corporate executive in the hospitality sector, I found my true calling in helping those struggling with addiction. This path has not only been a professional choice but a personal one, as I am a recovering drug addict and alcoholic myself. My approach to helping is grounded in the principles of the 12-Step program, which forms the foundation of my therapeutic practice. However, I believe in a holistic approach to recovery, integrating aspects of biopsychology, holistic healing, and mythology to provide a comprehensive support system for my clients. This blend of traditional and innovative methods allows me to address the multifaceted nature of addiction, catering to both the physical and psychological aspects of recovery. Having personally navigated the challenges of addiction, I bring a unique perspective and a deep sense of empathy to my work. I understand the struggles, fears, and hopes that come with the journey towards recovery. This personal experience has been instrumental in shaping my approach, allowing me to connect with clients on a more profound level. As a devoted student of psychology and English literature, I am continually learning and incorporating new insights into my practice. I am driven by the opportunity to help others uncover their true purpose in life, believing that everyone has the potential to rewrite their story and embark on a path of healing and self-discovery. At the Massachusetts Center for Addiction, my role extends beyond just treatment. I am committed to creating a supportive, understanding environment where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions safely. My goal is to guide each individual towards finding peace, balance, and a renewed sense of purpose in their lives. Through this journey, I aim to help others not just overcome addiction but embrace a life of fulfillment and meaning.

I work toward supporting individual and collective liberation using anti-oppressive frameworks in therapy and supervision. I work with humans who recognize their own agency in their healing processes. I engage with people across different intersections of their identities that impact their lived experiences. By deepening our insights around the patterns, values, and narratives we hold about ourselves, and the systems and relationships we inhabit, we move toward greater understanding and compassion for ourselves and others. I offer a warm, compassionate, direct, engaged, and curious presence. As a licensed, trauma-informed counselor educator and supervisor, I bring expertise in theory, critical and deconstructed application of counseling paradigms, and cutting-edge research translated into effective individual and systemic interventions to support people in their journey toward authenticity, acceptance, and vitality. My approach supports the ongoing processes of becoming and belonging, deepening insight, learning to attune to our own inherent wisdom, and gently welcoming even the parts of ourselves that have felt challenging or unwanted. Despite the messages many of us have received, I believe we each carry deep intelligence, resilience, and creative possibilities for growth. I believe that when we take committed action aligned with our values, meaningful change becomes both visible and felt. I aim to meet you where you are and to collaboratively create a map that supports your growth in therapy and in supervision. My work is rooted in relational-cultural, attachment-based, transfeminist, and experiential approaches. This means I understand healing as something that happens in relationship, and I trust the present moment as a rich source of information and opportunity. Often, growth asks us to slow down, tune in, and sit with ourselves long enough for new possibilities to emerge. I hold each person as complex and interconnected, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and in community. I openly acknowledge the impact of systems of domination, including white supremacy, racism, transphobia, misogyny, classism, ableism, and fatphobia, on individual well-being and access to care. I believe ethical and competent counseling and supervision require ongoing reflection, accountability, and learning. I commit to this through my own supervision, consultation, training, and continuing education. In my role as a clinical supervisor, I integrate an intersectional and transfeminist framework alongside the integrative developmental model (IDM) to support counselors at all stages of development. My practice is eclectic, rooted in somatic, relational, attachment, experiential, and transfeminist therapies. I have been trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) levels 1 and 2 for over five years, and I have completed basic exposure and response prevention (ERP) training. I believe we heal in relationship and through connection. I also enjoy offering clinical supervision and consultation.

I am a doctoral level therapist with over 20 years experience working with individuals with mental health issues, everyday problems, andor relationship issues. My approach is a collaborative one which varies with individual needs. I tend to be informal in style and actively engaged at all times. I believe that humor is an essential part of therapy. I further believe that everyone can benefit from having an impartial, insightful third party in their life. I welcome clients who might perceive themselves to be "challenging".

As a man, feeling like you should be further ahead in life is one of the worst possible feelings.

I walk into this profession every day because I believe everyone deserves to feel empowered and in control of their lives. Whether you're struggling with anxiety that keeps you from reaching your full potential, or relationship issues causing friction at home, I can help. My approach is collaborative and direct. We'll work together to understand the root of your anxieties, unpack unhelpful thought patterns, and develop coping mechanisms that truly work for you. For relationship struggles, I can guide you and your partner in fostering healthier communication, building trust, and navigating conflict resolution in a productive way. But therapy isn't just about fixing problems. It's about self-discovery. I'll help you identify your strengths, build confidence, and challenge the inner critic that whispers doubts. Together, we can work on replacing feelings of inadequacy and insecurity with self-compassion and a healthy sense of self-worth. You don't have to strive for perfection – let's focus on progress and celebrate your unique journey.
