Therapist

Becoming a licensed clinical social worker has always been a career goal. Growing up, I constantly advocated for vulnerable populations and had a deep understanding of people’s emotions. As the oldest child and daughter, understanding family dynamics, worldviews, and individual experiences came naturally. In my career, I’ve provided psychotherapy to court-ordered parents working to reunite with their children, teens in a school setting as a behavioral health therapist, and millennial individuals as a primary therapist. As a first-generation college graduate, an entrepreneur, and a businesswoman, I also understand the challenges that come with starting something from scratch and learning as you go. Sometimes, you need to speak with a relatable yet unbiased party to process your thoughts and feelings about everyday stressors that you may not feel comfortable sharing openly. I use evidence-based practices and unconventional interventions to reach clients where they are.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Boston, MA

Searching for couples therapists in Boston starts with finding someone trained to work with both partners and the relationship itself. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Some therapists have specific couples training, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy. You may also look for licensed marriage and family therapists, since their training focuses on relationships and family systems.

In a large metro area like Boston, the number of options can make the search harder to narrow. Location may matter if you want in-person sessions near Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Cambridge, or another neighborhood with easy transit access. Virtual appointments can also make scheduling simpler when two calendars need to align. As you compare therapists, check availability, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist works with couples and whether their style fits what both partners want from care.

Couples therapy in Boston can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who work with couples and are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your location and plan. You can compare profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
