With extensive training in eating disorders and performance psychology, I am interested in supporting adults and adolescents in their search for wellness and authenticity. This can entail exploring the root of school-based and somatic issues, partnering with clients on their recovery journeys, nurturing growth and strength in times of anxiety and depression, assisting with transitions, or fostering identity development. My style of practice is holistic, strengths-based and creative, and is infused with warmth and cultural competence. Please note that my canine good citizen, Theo the Bloodhound, is often present to provide support.nnWith twelve years of experience helping high school students and families navigate challenges within academic settings, I also specialize in cultivating supports and strategies by collaborating with school and medical professionals as well as holistic care providers. Most recently, my work has begun to focus on grief, loss and the accompanying transitions.nnIn addition to office-based treatment, I am pleased to offer equine assisted psychotherapy in a workshop-based, customizable format. As a competitive equestrian and trainer for more than twenty years, work can use the human/equine partnership as a mirror. Please inquire for details.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) at Nourished Minds Counseling + Wellness, I specialize in treating adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, and OCD. I am a certified yoga teacher and yoga therapist, and often infuse this background into my clinical work to help clients befriend their body and regulate their nervous system. My approach incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Most importantly, however, we focus on building trust and connection, and then personalize the therapy based on what will best serve the client’s goals. I strive to be a collaborative and interactive therapist, co-creating an engaging and dynamic atmosphere in sessions.

I received my Master of Social Work (MSW) from Simmons University. Prior to joining Nourished Minds, I worked at the Simmons College Counseling Center, where I provided individual therapy to undergraduate students. I deeply appreciate the experience I gained working with students to build their toolbox of coping skills to navigate through anxiety, depression, eating disorders, self-harm, relationship challenges, trauma, chronic pain, and identity development.

My decade of experience as a yoga teacher and yoga therapist helps me appreciate the complicated relationship we can have with our bodies. I have taught therapeutic yoga at several Boston-area eating disorder treatment programs. I often work with clients who have not necessarily had a positive relationship with yoga, mindfulness, or movement, and love the challenge of taking creative approaches to help improve the mind-body relationship. I am a member of the Multi-Service Eating Disorders Association (MEDA), the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT), and the National Association of Social Workers (NASW).

I work with clients across the spectrum of gender identity and sexual orientation. I love supporting clients who are navigating polyamory and nonmonogamy. An understanding of the role that structural oppression plays in our mental health is infused in my clinical work, along with anti-racist education and practice. Prior to working directly with clients, I worked in the nonprofit sector, focused on social justice and policy change. This dedication to shifting systems and organizations continues to drive how I show up in the world, working towards long-term cultural change where everyone has access to greater health and wellbeing.

“Sapientia” (sap-pen-tcha) is Latin for wisdom. My practice is built on the belief that everyone already has within them the resources to heal, grow, and thrive.

Dr. Andrea Kulberg is a licensed psychologist with 25 years of experience in the treatment of disordered eating and anxiety, and a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist. Dr. Kulberg’s team of dietitians and therapists at Anxiety Experts specializes in treating all types of eating disorders, as well as anxiety, panic, social phobia, school refusal, OCD, PTSD and BDD.

“From Unspoken Pain to Empowered Healing: Breaking the Silence on Unaddressed Grief” – Anita Gupta”

People tend to suffer in silence with Depression, Anxiety, Eating Disorders and Grief over loss for far too long. Reaching out for help takes courage. I have 30 years experience working as a Clinical Instructor – Harvard Medical School, Associate Clinical Psychologist – Massachusetts General Hospital and treating patients in my private practice in Boston’s Back Bay. In 2022 I moved my private practice to Newton Highlands. My mission is to
help people fulfill their life dreams personally, professionally and relationally. My patients and I work collaboratively to explore the roots of their pain / symptoms and discover new strategies to better deal with complicated problems. I am an interactive and relational therapist. I offer Individual, Couples, Group Therapy & Grief Counseling.

Coping with the death of a loved one can feel intolerable. You believe no one can really understand YOUR pain. You are right. But, you are also not alone. I lost my 16 yo son 3 years ago. Faith, an unflappable support system and therapy saved my life. I am ready to help others on their journey to living a fulfilling, love-filled life along side of the grief.

Life transitions can be complicated and difficult. Whether the transition is to a change in relationship status, new city, new job, or new school, it is helpful to have a safe, private space to process overwhelming emotions that invariably arise. I see patients over zoom as well as face to face indoors as well as in an Outdoor Covid Compliant Office space.

After providing therapy at Monte Nido Laurel Hill residential for over 5 years, most recently as the Assistant Clinical Director, I now see clients in private practice on the North Shore. I am passionate about helping individuals with eating & exercise disorders/ body image issues work on the behaviors and underlying issues they are struggling with. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where I encourage clients to be vulnerable and curious about their recovery. My practice is currently full, but please contact me if you are interested in being put on my waitlist.

I am licensed in Massachusetts, New York, and North Carolina.

I wholeheartedly believe in the power of connection to heal and my approach is direct, honest, and collaborative while offering a warm, non-judgmental space for my clients. I use anti-diet and HAES (Health At Every Size) principles and strongly believe in reinforcing self-compassion.

I also have extensive experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, and athletes struggling with disordered eating and/or exercise addiction. I am in the process of becoming an EMDR trained therapist.

My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavioral techniques, meaning that we will look at patterns of thinking and habits in behaviors that may be maintaining negative mood states or problematic situations. My therapeutic style is collaborative, open and interpersonal, meaning we work together to address problems and feedback runs both directions. I strive to meet patients where they are at and personalize treatment whether you are new to therapy or not, wanting help w/ a specific concern or struggling to identify what that is, or ready to share versus a little unsure.

Greetings!!
