Clinical Intern- MSW

Hello! My name is Katie Valicenti, I am a Master’s level student at Boston University, School of Social Work. I provide mental health therapy at Alternative Wellness Services as an intern. I work with children and adults across the lifespan.

My approach is holistic to include an understanding of your physical, social, and emotional needs. You are the expert in your own life and I believe that all the tools you need to be successful live within you. I am here to help you access those tools and put them to work. We will collaborate to identify and build on your strengths, while leaning into your discomfort. My job is to create a safe environment to express your feelings and support you through making meaningful changes to reach your goals, whatever they may be.
