Dr. Sumio Shinohara is a Licensed Psychologist (LP) with more than 15 years of experience working with adults, adolescents, and couples seeking help with depression, anxiety, life transitions, men’s issues, trauma/PTSD, mood disorders, grief and loss, and relationship issues.
Dr. Shinohara earned his Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Abilene Christian University and completed his Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at William James College in MA. He also received his psychoanalytic training at the Boston Graduate School of Psychoanalysis.
Dr. Shinohara's primary therapeutic approach is eclectic, including person-centered, cognitive behavioral (CBT), and psychodynamic approaches, and values each client's experience of feeling deeply and empathetically understood. Through the experience of feeling understood, clients will also be able to have opportunities to understand more about themselves, which usually brings multiple positive improvements in clients' life.
Dr. Shinohara believes in the power of empathy and acceptance clients can experience in a safe therapeutic relationship. He seeks to establish a caring, respectful, and compassionate relationship with clients who have difficulty accepting negative aspects of themselves. Dr. Shinohara will also encourage clients to focus on the root cause of the issues in addition to coping and managing their symptoms.

As a person-centered clinician with a multicultural background, I focus on creating a calm, nonjudgmental space for individuals working through different challenges.
I am a master’s level counselor with 4 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with individuals navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, substance use disorders, and personality-related challenges. I take a person-centered approach and strive to create a calm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel respected, understood, and empowered throughout their healing journey.
I earned my master’s degree in psychology counseling from Lesley University. I am trained in trauma-informed care, exposure-based techniques, and other evidence-supported approaches. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all model, I thoughtfully tailor treatment to each client’s needs, goals, and readiness for change.
You do not need to have everything figured out to begin therapy. If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of your next steps, I am here to support you in building awareness, emotional stability, and healthy coping skills at a pace that feels right for you. When you are ready to begin, I am ready to walk alongside you.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Sexual assault therapy helps victims heal from their assault and trauma. Sexual assault can take a number of forms, from the abuse of a child to the violent sexual assault of an adult. No matter what kind of experience you or a loved one has had, our therapists in Cambridge, MA will be ready to get to work on helping you find a path toward a better future.
Sexual assault therapy works by helping victims process and move forward from their traumatic experience(s). In addition, it helps one address and manage any resulting mental health challenges from depression to stress, anxiety, poor self-image, unhealthy eating patterns, and more.
Sexual assault therapy at Thriveworks in Cambridge, MA is conducted both in person and virtually through online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Sexual assault therapy often lasts for months to years. However, it can last longer or shorter, depending on the individual’s unique needs.
Regardless of the form it takes, sexual violence can cause substantial harm to its victims, and it is important for anyone who has experienced rape, sexual assault, or sexual harassment to know that what happened to them was not their fault. It is possible to feel safe and whole again. Many survivors work with a therapist as they heal from sexual violence. Counseling for victims of sexual assault has be a key element of many people’s healing journey.
The mental health professionals—including our counselors, therapists, and psychologists—at Thriveworks Cambridge have helped many people who have lived through sexual violence. We understand the trauma and harm it can cause. We also understand what it takes to heal.
Some of the wounds that sexual violence can leave are seen and some are unseen. Each is very personal. Because sexual assault can take many different forms, so can the wounds it leaves. Nonetheless, many survivors report dealing with similar dynamics. It does not mean that everyone will experience these wounds, but they are common.
If you have experienced sexual violence and are ready to see a therapist or psychologist, the mental health professionals at Thriveworks Cambridge are ready to see you. When you contact our office, one of our scheduling specialists will answer. Your first appointment may be the same week of reaching out. We offer evening and weekend sessions.
