I am Sandra Lerzundy‐Price, LMFT, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Clinical Director dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families create meaningful, lasting change. My work is grounded in systemic thinking and a holistic view of wellbeing — honoring the integration of body, soul, mind, and spirit.
With over a decade of experience across private practice, outpatient, inpatient, and high‐acuity behavioral health settings, I offer a steady, restorative, and collaborative therapeutic space. I believe therapy helps us understand the “dance” we’ve been doing — the patterns, roles, and reactions that shape our relationships — and supports us in creating new ways of relating that foster connection, clarity, healing and growth.
As a couples therapist, I help partners strengthen communication, rebuild trust, deepen emotional intimacy, and interrupt conflict cycles. I draw from the Gottman Method, Prepare/Enrich, attachment‐based work, and systemic relational models to help couples build healthier patterns and a stronger foundation.
I also treat anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, chronic conditions, family issues, grief and bereavement, infertility, PTSD, trauma, stress management, relationship concerns, and life‐cycle transitions. My approach integrates systemic, person centered models, CBT, Motivational Interviewing (MI), EMDR‐informed principles, Structural Family Therapy, DBT‐informed strategies, and somatic awareness practices to support the whole person.
At Restorative Therapy Services, I provide in‐person and telehealth appointments for teens, adults, couples, and families. I am committed to helping clients feel understood, supported, and empowered as they move toward healing, resilience, and deeper connection.
Hi, I'm Trudy Carl, LICSW. I bring over 15 years of experience in social work, mental health, and human services, working with individuals, teens, families, and couples across community, healthcare, and correctional settings. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, substance use, and re-entry after incarceration. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and strengths-based, helping clients build resilience, gain insight, and create meaningful change in their lives.
I provide a proven mind-body integrated approach that helps adults heal from the impact of trauma, addiction, anxiety, interpersonal problems, self-hate, and more. I am a lifelong learner with vast training and experience in internal family systems (IFS), yoga, polyvagal theory, mindfulness, and self-compassion. I bring a nonjudgmental, compassionate, and open-minded to work with my people.
Hi there! Are you seeking genuine, straightforward guidance and effective coping strategies enriched by personal experience and practical application? You’ve come to the right place! I specialize in EMDR which is effective in the treatment of trauma, phobias, low self esteem, pain management, eating disorders, and anxiety. I love supporting my fellow ADHDers and those with chronic illness. Sessions are focused on reducing self judgement while finding ways for your environment to work for you.
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with extensive experience in trauma, grief and bereavement, hospice and palliative care, substance use, recovery, and major life transitions. I earned my Master of Social Work from Wheelock College, along with a Certificate in Medical Social Work, and later completed training in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy and Research through the California Institute of Integral Studies. I also have experience with ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and bring an integrative, trauma-informed perspective to my work. I especially enjoy working with adults who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, lasting change.
I am at my best when I am a guide for others. I start by listening and developing understanding of who you are, what you value, and where you struggle. I will help you to find your way back to yourself and develop the trust you need in yourself to live your best life. I use an approach that is very collaborative offering tools and resources, but assisting you to choose your own direction.
We all struggle at times, especially in the way we live these days. I can help you understand how and why you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and develop strategies to move through this to a happier, more grounded, and more confident version of yourself.
I have worked in the mental health field for over 10 years, and have experience working with adults, children and families. I earned my Master's degree in 2023 in Clinical Psychology from Bridgewater State University. I have experience with many mental health diagnoses including depression, anxiety, PTSD, psychosis, and personality disorders. I love connecting with women and mothers and helping them to find their joy and peace.
Hi everyone, Welcome! I have 10 years of experience of working with a wide array of clients. My area of concentration is couples and family therapy. But I have worked a lot with individual clients too. I am only able to offer telehealth video sessions.
Mental health is nothing to "work on later" or neglect. This is the place you can be vulnerable, emotional and free of judgement. I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.

Frequently asked questions


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
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.
