My clinical degree is a Master of Science in Social Administration (MSSA, MSW equivalent) from Case Western Reserve in Cleveland, Ohio (2016). I completed my Master of Education in Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) from University of Cincinnati (2016), and have experience as a provider of ABA services. I have a Doctorate in Behavioral Health from Arizona State University(2020).
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.
I am well versed in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) models and offer a direct and compassionate humanistic approach. I use Logo therapy, Gestalt therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I am also well versed in Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
I look forward to talking and working with you and hope the work we do together helps you find contentment and joy in your life.
Hello! My name is Erin Sadiq and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience supporting individuals and families through a strengths-based, trauma-informed lens. I am passionate about fostering resilience and emotional wellness across diverse populations.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, family systems, child/adolescent mental health, and use an integrative approach that may include CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques. I am client-centered and work hard to create a safe, collaborative space for growth and healing.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of New Hampshire and maintain active licensure in Massachusetts. In addition to my clinical work, I am committed to ongoing professional development and community advocacy.
When not working, I love traveling, exploring new places, and soaking in the beauty of different cultures and experiences.
I am married and a father of two young adult sons. I love my work and hold it as an important value in my life. My focus for two decades plus has been on relationships.
You don’t have to go through life’s challenges on your own. With almost 10 years of experience, I provide support to individuals dealing with anxiety, burnout, trauma, and stress, as well as those exploring AAPI and gender identity issues. I also work with children and teens who are managing emotional and behavioral challenges. My style is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to meet your individual needs. I hold a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) from the University of Cambridge and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from CSUSB. Whether you’re feeling stuck or striving for personal growth, I’m here to help!
I believe healing begins by recognizing the strengths you already have. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I take a person-centered, strength-based approach, helping clients heal from trauma, including generational trauma, navigate life's transitions, and build practical skills for lasting change. Along with working with individuals, I enjoy supporting couples and families, recognizing that lasting change often happens when the entire family system is strengthened. With three years of clinical experience and significant life experience, I strive to create a safe space where clients can quiet shame, build self-compassion, strengthen relationships, and move forward with confidence and hope.

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.
