Annie Hawkinson, LICSW, PMH-C
online therapy in Massachusetts for pregnancy, postpartum, and other life changes
welcome
Life can be overwhelming at times, especially when you're in the midst of a big change.
Specializing in perinatal mental health, life transitions, and anxiety, I offer a calm and encouraging space to help you move through new beginnings with a greater sense of ease. As a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C), I will meet you wherever you are on your path to new parenthood. We'll work together to help you feel centered in times of stress, break cycles of generational trauma, and stay present with your family while finding ways to take care of yourself. ​​​​
​
My hope is that you leave each session feeling seen, heard, and empowered. You know yourself best, and I’m here to offer a caring, empathetic presence whenever you need it, especially when things feel tough. With insight and understanding, I’ll partner with you to explore how your past may be impacting your present, and how you can move forward with clarity about the future you want to create. Together, we’ll identify goals that are aligned with your core values, and implement a plan to help you nurture your authentic self.

about
Whatever season of growth you're in, I'd love to be part of your support system.
​I strive to create a warm and non-judgmental space where you can show up just as you are. I believe that all emotions, even the painful ones, are important, and that healing occurs when we greet our emotions with a sense of curiosity and compassion.
​
I earned a Masters Degree in Social Work from Boston College, and am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I hold additional certifications in Perinatal Mental Health, the Trauma-Conscious Yoga Method, and Trauma-Conscious Reproductive Health. With an understanding of the toll that stress, especially during the perinatal period, takes on both the mind and the body, I take a holistic approach in my work as a therapist. I'll help you manage physical and emotional symptoms of anxiety so you can feel grounded, present, and like the best version of you.

work with me
I'm a Boston-based therapist providing virtual therapy to clients across Massachusetts through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. All sessions are held online, making it easy to access support from the comfort of your home (babies are welcome to attend too!). I also offer clinical supervision for fellow therapists and trauma-conscious yoga, which can be incorporated into traditional talk therapy sessions or done on its own. My hours are weekdays from 9am to 3pm.
clinical supervision
For brand new and seasoned therapists alike, clinical supervision allows you to pause and reflect on growth and challenges in your role as a social worker. Through our work together, you'll gain confidence in your therapeutic skills so that you can provide high-quality client care.
