About Dr. Hadass Harel

I’m a Trauma specialist, licensed in Massachusetts, with over 30 years of work experience spanning several continents, from War Zones to Human Trafficking to Inner Cities. I’m experienced treating the entire spectrum of Trauma-generated symptoms, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Dissociative Disorders, Depression, Anger, Eating Disorders, Addictions, (Opiates in particular) – plus the havoc that Trauma wreaks on relationships and family life – and the chaos of coping with Medical Illness, injuries and Chronic Pain. I allow all clients a safe and honest Space where any feelings or thoughts can be shared without judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take a lot of courage, so I’m very proud of you already for getting started !!
