Dr. Mondi-Rago's approach
"I specialize in providing evidence-based, compassionate care to children and teens struggling with depression, anxiety, stress and trauma. I intentionally keep a small private practice caseload to ensure that I can provide the most individualized care possible. My process begins with a thorough assessment, during which we'll collaboratively map out your child's and family's unique needs, strengths, and challenges. From there, I'll work with you to develop a thoughtful treatment plan, informed by science and best practice guidelines. Throughout, I hope you'll find me warm, easy to talk to, and willing to go above and beyond for your family.
"Over the years, I have provided treatment to children and teenagers in a wide range of settings (e.g., outpatient, primary care, emergency department, partial hospitalization, inpatient medical units). I have particular expertise and training in working with parents/caregivers, children and teens who have experienced trauma, and LGBTQ+ youth. Outside of private practice, I am an Attending Psychologist at Boston Children's Hospital and an Instructor of Psychology at Harvard Medical School.
"Deciding to seek therapy takes courage, and seeking therapy for your child is an extra courageous step. I would be glad to connect to learn about what you're looking for, and to share more about my practice."
Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
"I am from a large, multicultural family (Cuban, Italian, Slovenian, Irish). I deeply value diversity of lived experiences, and am committed to increasing my cultural sensitivity and self-awareness through ongoing education, training, and advocacy. I am also a strong advocate for the LGTBQ+ community, and am delighted to serve these youth in my practice."
