I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.
Hi, I’m Jennifer Roberts, PMHNP-BC, a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in women’s mental health across the lifespan—from perinatal and postpartum challenges to menopause, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, mood changes, substance use recovery, trauma recovery, and ADHD. I provide integrative mental health care that blends medication management with holistic, individualized treatment plans.
I offer in-person care in Walpole, MA, and telehealth across Massachusetts. Let's work together to create a path toward healing that truly fits you.
I have my master’s degree from Lesley University in Mental Health Counseling and Expressive Arts Therapy. I am certified as a mindfulness teacher, mediator, and yoga teacher. The mind-body connection is an important aspect of the approach I take with clients. I am also trained to provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). Additionally, I’m a facilitator of Gender Equity and Reconciliation, so it informs my work with couples and relationship challenges. I specialize in working with adult individual clients and couples who experience anxiety, depression, adult and childhood trauma, relationship conflict/transitions, and mid-life transitions.
Over the years, I have worked with folks of all ages and from all walks of life. What they all have in common is the desire to feel connected to others and feel that life is enriching, not depleting. If you are feeling depleted, for any number of reasons, I am here to support you and help you find what you need to be connected and enriched.
Greetings,
I have been for therapist for 20 years in the Eastern Mass area. If you made far, I can assist you towards the next chapter in your journey.
The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Arlington
Searching for addiction therapists in Arlington starts with finding care that fits the specific concern you want support with. Addiction care can include substance use, alcohol use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and the mental health concerns that may come with them, such as anxiety, depression, or trauma. Look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Some therapists use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction frameworks, or coordinate with a prescriber when medication support is part of a person’s care plan.
In a smaller city like Arlington, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas, so virtual therapy can help expand your search. Recovery can also change over time, which makes fit especially important. Consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work with your schedule, and has experience with nonjudgmental addiction support. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they talk about recovery, harm reduction, relapse prevention, and what to expect in sessions before you book.
Addiction therapy in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
