Credentials: MSW, LCSW

Lindsey Batista, LCSW, PMH-C, is a Certified Perinatal Mental Health therapist who is deeply passionate about supporting women and families through the emotional challenges that can arise during pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, pregnancy loss, and the transition into parenthood. She specializes in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), including postpartum depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, and adjustment difficulties, and is committed to helping individuals feel understood, supported, and empowered throughout their healing journey.

Lindsey earned her Master’s degree in Social Work from University of New England and is licensed as a clinical social worker. She has spent over four years working in community mental health with adults experiencing severe mental illness as well as individuals on the autism spectrum. Her diverse clinical background has strengthened her ability to compassionately support clients facing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, learning disabilities, and significant life transitions.

Lindsey is especially passionate about maternal mental health and understands how overwhelming and isolating the perinatal period can sometimes feel. She believes that with the right support, healing and growth are possible, and she strives to create a safe and nurturing environment where clients can process their experiences without judgment. She values a holistic approach to healing and recognizes the important role spirituality and personal meaning can play in emotional wellness.

She is trained in working with individuals, couples, and families using a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), sand tray therapy, and play therapy. Lindsey is passionate about helping clients strengthen relationships, build resilience, and create deeper connection within themselves and with those they love.

Outside of her professional work, Lindsey enjoys music, traveling, swimming, experiencing new cultures, cooking, and trying new foods. She loves connecting with people and learning from their experiences, but most of all treasures spending time with family and friends. Family is deeply important to Lindsey, and she is passionate about helping others cultivate meaningful and fulfilling relationships throughout every stage of life.
