Claire Mancuso

build trust and safety in the therapy space to help you bring your full self to session. Whether you're dealing with pain, loss, life transitions, or simply feeling "off," therapy can be a place where you can slow down, get in touch with yourself, and receive helpful insight from a professional in a peaceful, non-judgemental environment.

grounded, understanding, and skilled at keeping sessions structured and focused when it feels like you're out to sea. I have a direct communication style paired with a gentle, compassionate touch to help you face and eventually change patterns without shame.

my years working in community mental health taught me the importance of social context and structural issues in processing trauma, and I view individual healing as inextricably linked to collective liberation. I believe that anti-oppressive therapists can create pockets of safety and healing despite the toll systemic inequities take on our spirits and bodies

As a queer clinician, I welcome LGBTQ+ clients and affirm alternative, nontraditional relationship and family structures. I am an EMDRIA-trained, psychodynamic, person-centered therapist with a passion for helping my clients gain insight into the origins of their struggles so that they can finally see the change they want in their lives.
