Launch Psychological Associates

Launch Psychological Associates is a woman-owned group practice in Wakefield offering psychotherapy, neuropsychological testing and psychoeducational groups for children, adolescents and adults. Its clinicians use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other science-backed approaches to help clients manage emotions, build stronger relationships and reach their potential. Clients whose emotional ups and downs are getting in the way of daily life get support and coping strategies, and treatment is collaborative, both within the practice and with outside providers.

Founders Dr. Ilana Blatt-Eisengart and Dr. Julie Cappella met while both were pregnant and starting their own independent practices. As their children and practices grew, they created Launch to serve more people, and they now oversee the clinicians to make sure every patient receives a high standard of care. The practice is also active in the surrounding towns, offering psychoeducational groups and informative talks for local PTOs, schools and other community venues.
