About Dr. Iveta Stantcheva

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Wellesley, Massachusetts. I see clients across the lifespan, ranging from children to adults. I work with, and have dedicated my practice towards clients who experience anxiety and depression, are struggling with life transitions or adjustment disorders, who are going through relationship issues, who seek stress management, as well as those with other emotional discontent and individuals who seek purpose or meaning. I also provide couples therapy.

Clinical Orientation

Because life, and the many issues we face, are dynamic, I choose to practice dynamically. By this, I mean that I draw from a wide range of psychotherapy disciplines to tailor an approach that fits your style and our client-therapist relationship. I believe therapy is a profound and personal experience that requires an individualized and deeply human approach and should not be bounded by a single school of psychotherapy. I am experienced in psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and others. Regardless of the techniques used, my promise to my clients is to honor their commitment and vulnerability with genuine empathy, and to walk alongside them on this journey.

Training and Education

I have a diverse background of training, including specialized training in anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) at McLean Hospital, holistic and somatic therapy training from Boston Behavioral Medicine, and psychodynamic psychotherapy training from The Human Relations Service. I have also spent several years working in community mental health and school settings, supporting children, adolescents, and parents as well as conducting neuropsychological assessments. I also specialize in, and have lived experience with, multicultural and immigrant issues.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree from Boston University and a Doctorate of Psychology (PsyD) from William James College.
