Marie Palmier, MSW, LICSW

I specialize in working with adults of all ages navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trauma/PTSD, life transitions, personal growth, relationship issues, grief & loss and chronic illness. I recognize that each person has a unique set of needs. I use a person-centered approach to help clients navigate toward the life they want, in a way that honors their timing and individual needs. I have gained extensive clinical experience in mental health settings and leading Boston hospitals. I currently provide psychotherapy to adult patients at Mass General Brigham and to adult clients of any age in my private practice.

I use several therapeutic approaches based on individual needs: CBT, DBT, ACT, EFT, Solution-Focused and Narrative Therapy for improved emotional functioning. I also enjoy teaching mindfulness and coping strategies, and how to incorporate these learnings into daily routines for improved quality of life. We work together on what is most important to you!
It takes courage to begin therapy and face difficult emotions, behaviors, and thinking patterns that prevent you from moving forward. Finding the right therapist is key to a successful therapeutic partnership that allows you to work towards the preferred life situation you envision. Each step you take, regardless of size, is an important accomplishment!
