Sameea Kazmi

My goal is to establish a collaborative and trusting relationship with clients that fosters a safe space for them to explore their emotions and experiences. I am committed to using a flexible client-centered and culturally aware treatment approach that is tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. My approach to psychotherapy is based in psychodynamics and relational theory and incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions. My trauma-informed therapeutic style is nonjudgmental, empathic, empowering, and warm.

I offer psychotherapy to adults of all ages and specialize in treating mood disorders/depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, relational issues, life transitions, work stress, college adjustment, and cultural adjustment. Using evidenced-based interventions, I help guide my clients towards achieving greater emotional well-being and improved quality of life.

As a first-generation daughter of immigrants, I have a passion for working with diverse clients who are navigating acculturation-related stress and systemic oppression. Prior to obtaining my MSW from Boston College School of Social Work, I practiced law for many years advocating for low-income individuals and families.
