Top therapists in Massachusetts accepting new patients
You might look like you have it together—but inside, your mind doesn’t slow down. You overthink conversations, second-guess decisions, and feel constant pressure to stay “on” at school, work, or in relationships. When things finally get quiet, your brain doesn’t—it gets louder. I work with adolescents and young adults who are tired of feeling stuck in that cycle. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally overwhelmed, anxious, or mentally exhausted. They don’t just want to “talk about feelings”—they want real tools that actually help.
My name is J.J. Mull -- I'm a clinical social worker and therapist in private practice.

Since finishing my training, I have worked in a wide range of settings with people struggling with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, substance use disorders, significant trauma, and many other issues. In addition to my clinical work, I am a writer, poet, and researcher and have been a professor in the Masters in Social Work program at Smith College for 4 years.
Hello!
I proudly bring lived experience to the table, so I know a different life than comes in textbooks. It increases my odds of understanding you better and of being able to develop unique strategies for you in a shorter amount of time. I've wanted to work in mental health since I was a child, and bring that enthusiasm to my work. Hope to see you soon.
Hello,
My name is Emily Kronhaus, I am a cisgender female and my pronouns are she/her/hers and they/them/theirs. I have worked in education and counseling for over a decade, and I've come to believe that therapy isn't just about managing symptoms. Therapy is also about understanding yourself, your relationships, and the world you're navigating.
Maybe you're doing pretty well on paper, but something still doesn't feel quite right. Your career may be going well (or not), but your relationships don't feel as fulfilling as you'd hoped. You may be questions who you are, what you want, or whether the life you've built actually reflects the person you've become.
I work with people who are navigating questions of identity, fulfillment, relationships, and how to live more authentically within the systems and expectations around them. Sometimes that means figuring out what you actually want. Sometimes it means learning to make space for your own needs and voice. Other times it means understanding how your relationships, family, culture, work, or larger systems have shaped the way you see yourself.
Through out my career I have experience supporting people through anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions relationship challenges, and questions of identity. My approach is collaborative, curious, and grounded in the belief that there isn't one "right" way to be a person or have a relationship.
Therapy doesn't have to be about fixing what's wrong with you. Sometimes it's about understanding yourself differently, questioning expectations that no longer fit, and learning how to build a life and relationship that feel more like your own.
