A Safe Space for Healing, Growth and Change.

I view therapy as a collaborative process — one where you and I work together to uncover patterns, strengthen resilience, and create new possibilities. My approach combines evidence-based practices with a compassionate, person-centered perspective. I often integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy, while also drawing from trauma-informed and holistic frameworks. This means we’ll look not only at thoughts and behaviors, but also at how emotions and the body hold your experiences. My role is to guide, support, and empower you — helping you build insight and tools that align with your values and goals, at a pace that feels right for you.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Arlington

Finding family therapists in Arlington starts with identifying what your family is navigating and what kind of support may fit. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, sibling concerns, and communication breakdowns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare options, look for therapists whose bios mention family systems, parent-child relationships, adolescent care, or other experience that matches your needs.

Arlington is a smaller market, so local in-person openings may be more limited than in nearby Boston-area communities. Virtual family therapy can expand your options while keeping care accessible for busy schedules. Session attendance may include the full family, a parent and child, siblings, or individual members at different points. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session structure, approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to discuss fit.

Therapy in Arlington can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists, many of whom accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse family therapists in Arlington, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
