Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker | Certified Dementia Practitioner
Boston, MA | In-Person & Telehealth Sessions
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) with more than two decades of clinical experience helping adults navigate complex emotional, relational, and medical challenges.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arlington
Searching for therapists in Arlington starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare Arlington therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Arlington is a smaller community, so local appointment options may be more limited than in nearby Boston, Cambridge, or Somerville. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Massachusetts. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style and what to expect in sessions.
Therapy in Arlington can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse therapists in Arlington, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
