I am a compassionate bilingual Licensed Mental Health Therapist fluent in both English and Spanish, dedicated to supporting the Latino community through culturally responsive, culturally competent, and stigma-free mental health care. I am passionate about increasing mental health awareness and helping to break down the barriers and stigma that often prevent individuals and families from seeking support.

Using an eclectic therapeutic style, I tailor each session to meet the unique strengths, needs, and goals of every client.

Whether you are facing personal challenges, navigating a significant life transition, managing emotional or behavioral concerns, or simply seeking a therapist who truly listens and adapts to your individual needs, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing, resilience, and personal growth.

Virginia Roth

Virginia Roth

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


I'm a Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over ten years of experience supporting children, teens, and families across community health and pediatric hospital settings. Much of my work has centered on adolescents, youth involved in the justice system, families navigating multiple systems of care, perinatal mental health, and end-of-life work. I also hold a certification in perinatal mental health (PMH-C). Beyond direct clinical work, I've led program development and evaluation for initiatives serving LGBTQIA2S+ communities and Latinx and Indigenous youth. Before becoming a social worker, I worked as an Intervention Specialist, supporting middle and high school students with learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and significant mental health needs. Across all of this, one belief stays constant: you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you with respect, curiosity, and genuine care.

Happy patient looking away

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 Boston

Finding family therapists in Boston starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns across generations, and mother-daughter relationship concerns. A family therapist is trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family problem counselling, relationship family therapy, couple and family concerns, or specific dynamics like mother and daughter therapy.

Boston has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Back Bay, Dorchester, Jamaica Plain, and South Boston, which can make the search more complex. Consider whether in-person sessions near home, school, work, or transit make sense, or whether virtual appointments offer a better fit for several family members’ schedules. Family therapy may include the full family, parent-child sessions, couples, or individual family members at different points. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions, what communication style they use, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.

Therapy in Boston can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find Boston family therapists who are accepting new patients and offer virtual or in-person appointments. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your specific plan on Headway. You can compare bios, review availability, 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.
