Renata Solís, LCSW
Trauma-focused, EMDR certified
TraumaEMDRPTSD
“Works with a lot of first responders and healthcare workers — people whose job is the trauma.”
Millbrook, Ashgrove Street
Six therapists, three specialties — trauma, couples, and teens — in a converted house on Ashgrove Street. Your first session is free, no strings, so you can tell if it’s a fit before you pay for anything.
Our Therapists
You choose who you see — we don’t assign by availability. Read the bios, pick who sounds right, and if it’s not a fit after the free session, we’ll help you find someone else here or elsewhere. That happens more than people expect, and it’s not a failure on either side.
Trauma-focused, EMDR certified
“Works with a lot of first responders and healthcare workers — people whose job is the trauma.”
Couples therapy, Gottman Method
“Sees roughly 40 couples a week; says the fights that actually end relationships are almost never about the dishes.”
Teen and adolescent therapy
“Keeps a shelf of card games in her office because half her clients talk more freely with their hands busy.”
Trauma-focused, somatic approaches
“Former paramedic, switched careers after ten years on ambulances.”
Couples and family systems
“Runs a monthly co-parenting workshop that's usually full a month out.”
Teen and young-adult therapy
“The therapist most of the college-bound seniors specifically ask for by name.”
First Session
You email or call, tell us roughly what’s going on, and we match you with two or three therapists whose specialty fits.
You pick one (or ask to see a bio) and book directly on their calendar — usually within a week, sometimes sooner.
The first session is 45 minutes, free, and unrecorded in your file if you decide not to continue — it’s genuinely a trial, not a soft-sell intake.
If it’s a fit, you schedule regular sessions. If it’s not, we’ll suggest someone else here or give you three outside referrals.
Fees
Standard rate is $150/session. Sliding scale runs from $60 to $150 based on income — you tell us where you land, we don’t ask for proof. Eight sliding-scale slots per therapist are reserved and usually full, so ask early. We’re out-of-network with insurance but provide a superbill every month if your plan reimburses.
No one has ever been turned away from Fernwood over the sliding-scale amount they chose. That’s a practice policy, not a slogan.
“I called four places before Fernwood. It’s the only one that told me an actual price on the phone instead of ‘let’s discuss during intake.’”
“Devon didn’t try to fix us in the first session. He just asked better questions than we’d asked each other in ten years.”
