Annabelle Frazier, LMHC — Therapist in Massachusetts

Hi there, I'm Annabelle!

I offer action-oriented counseling to people in high-stress roles and situations. I specialize in sorting through the chaos: working with public interest attorneys, healthcare professionals, and others struggling to manage intense daily stressors. If you feel exhausted and overwhelmed, I can help you get clarity, regain control, and find calm.

My focus

I work with individuals navigating Borderline Personality, Child Abuse or Neglect, Dissociative Disorders, Family Conflict, Legal Stress, Personality Disorders, Relationship Issues, Sexual Abuse, Stress, Trauma, and PTSD. We might be a good match if you're drowning, unable to relax, living in self-doubt, or dreading each day.

My approach

My approach utilizes Adlerian, Attachment-based, Dialectical, EMDR, Narrative, Strength-Based, and Trauma Focused methods. Our work will be practical, trauma-sensitive, and present-focused. Together, we'll zero in on your priorities and practice strategies that transform your day-to-day.

My communication style

My style is direct and informal, and I'm pretty hard to shock. Say whatever is on your mind. I'll listen without judgment, but I'll also ask you to consider alternative interpretations, challenge you to learn from experience, and invite you to take action when necessary. You don't have to worry about being judged or misunderstood.

My journey to mental healthcare

I came into this work accidentally as a graphic design student who needed a job. Everything changed when I started at the front desk of a new outreach program. People with complex needs came to my desk, each with a story, and I wanted to listen. After a decade in human services, I know how overwhelmed you feel.

My goals for you

Goals are important, and efforts are wasted without a specific goal. What does "better" look like for you? I take goal setting seriously, focusing on clarifying tangible outcomes. My role is to help you clarify your thoughts and put them into measurable, specific words that feel authentic to who and where you are.

Our first session

During our first session, we'll get to know each other while working through paperwork and procedural requirements. In healthy relationships, trust takes time to develop, and your therapist relationship should model that. We'll take time to build trust while working through assessment and goal setting.
