Group Therapy with Dr. Jennifer Brownstein
Improve your well-being through greater self-understanding, self-compassion and meaningful connection with others. Dr. Jen’s group therapy program was originally developed for a Harvard University program and has continued to evolve over time.
Do you have any idea what it feels like to ‘never be good enough’? Are you experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, or burnout?
- Are you hard on yourself?
- Do you tend to take care of others more than yourself?
- Do you wish to feel less alone?
- Do you wish for more time to care for yourself?
If you answered YES to any of these questions, contact me for a complimentary consultation.
Let’s co-create your own self-care toolbox
Guided by a licensed psychologist, discover a safe space to learn more about yourself in the company of like minded others.
Sense of Belonging: Neuroscience shows that support can impact the reward centers in your brain, which makes you feel better.
Hope: Witnessing others go through similar emotions can help your confidence that your situation can have a positive outcome.
Compassion: Mutual understanding of being imperfect humans, can increase feelings of security and self kindness.
Self Awareness: Group therapy increases your self knowledge and, in turn, improves your relationships outside of the group.

Individual Therapy
Dr. Jen provides individual therapy for adults seeking greater self-understanding, self-compassion and meaningful change. She works with clients navigating anxiety, stress, relationships, life transitions, self-criticism and patterns that may no longer be serving them.
While she considers herself an integrative therapist, her approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), self-compassion, mindfulness and positive psychology.
Therapy is tailored to each person, with an emphasis on helping clients better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships and live more fully in line with their values.
If you would like to explore whether working together may be a good fit, contact Dr. Jen for a complimentary consultation.
Meet Your Psychologist & Group Leader
I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space where we can embrace vulnerability, foster strengths and deepen connection. Together, we can ignite our curiosity and bring compassion to the patterns that shape how we relate to ourselves and others.
Dr. Jennifer Brownstein, PsyD, an alumna of McGill University and William James College, is a clinical psychologist in private practice. Prior to private practice, she worked at Cambridge Health Alliance/Harvard Medical School and trained in a variety of hospital, community and private practice settings, including McLean Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital and Tufts Medical Center.
Dr. Jen works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-criticism, relationship difficulties, life transitions and personal growth. Rather than solely focusing on a diagnosis, she believes in understanding the whole person and creating space for greater self-awareness, connection and meaningful change.
Dr. Jen has over a decade of experience developing and leading therapy groups. She is known for her Self Care Group, a resiliency program originally created for a Harvard University program and grounded in positive psychology and self-compassion. A 2024 program evaluation found promising trends toward increased self-compassion and decreased depressive symptoms. Participants also described feeling less alone and unanimously reported that they would recommend the group.
Her current groups build upon this foundation and incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, self-compassion and interpersonal connection. Groups help members better understand themselves, relate differently to difficult thoughts and emotions and move toward lives that are more aligned with their values.
Dr. Jen’s warmth, authenticity and curiosity help foster a cohesive environment where group members can feel supported, challenged and connected.
