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 am an HBCU educated single mother of twins who is passionate about the work I do. I approach our sessions as your time to work through what you are ready to tackle in your life. I will follow your lead, while gently challenging you when necessary in order to help you reach the goals you have set for yourself. If you would like a faith-based approach, I can offer that as well.
The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.
I graduated from Fordham University Graduate School of Social Services. I've had the opportunity to work with the elderly, adolescents, teens and families. Providing family therapy is my specialty.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families across educational, community, and behavioral health settings. I help clients navigate anxiety, stress, emotional and behavioral concerns, relationship difficulties, life transitions, parenting challenges, and personal growth. My approach is warm, collaborative, strengths-based, and culturally responsive, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel comfortable being vulnerable, express their authentic selves, and feel genuinely heard and understood. I honor each client’s unique culture, values, and life experiences while helping them develop practical tools and move toward meaningful change.
Hello, and welcome. I am Shereda Grossett, MSN, PMHNP-BC, RN.

My background includes leadership in inpatient psychiatry, nursing education, and direct patient care.
I specialize in the assessment and treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, mood disorders, and other psychiatric conditions. I believe that mental health care should be collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their treatment journey.
As a licensed mental health counselor and with over eighteen years of experience working in the field, I am committed to providing a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to explore their thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. I believe that healing begins when individuals feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. My therapeutic style is warm, approachable, and collaborative, allowing clients to build trust and feel comfortable discussing even the most difficult aspects of their lives. I am highly empathetic and intuitive, with a keen ability to recognize both verbal and nonverbal communication. By paying close attention to body language, emotional patterns, and underlying themes, I help clients identify the root causes of their challenges and develop practical strategies for healing, resilience, and personal growth. I strive to meet each client where they are, honoring their unique experiences while helping them build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

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 an Family Therapist in Boston, MA
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.
