I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and genuine connection. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to navigate life's challenges.

My professional background includes working with individuals who've experienced domestic abuse, anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma,and emotional dysregulation.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I look forward to the opportunity to support you along the way.

Erica Boncella

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I am a compassionate, approachable, and nonjudgmental therapist who strives to create a safe and supportive environment for every client. During our first session, I make it a priority to emphasize that therapy is a space free from judgment and blame. As human beings, we all experience challenges, setbacks, and mistakes throughout our lives, and I believe these experiences are a natural part of personal growth.

While I serve in the role of therapist, I do not view myself as superior to those I work with. Instead, I value collaboration, mutual respect, and authenticity in the therapeutic relationship. I believe that meaningful progress occurs when clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to take an active role in their treatment.

Honesty and transparency are central to my practice. Together, we will develop individualized goals that reflect your unique needs, values, and aspirations rather than pursuing a predetermined or "easy" path. I recognize that no one has all the answers, and I am committed to being honest when I do not know something. In those instances, I will make every effort to seek out accurate information and resources to best support your growth and well-being.

My goal is to work alongside you as a partner in your journey, helping you build the skills, insight, and confidence needed to create meaningful and lasting change.

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 Therapy Therapist in Philadelphia

Finding couples therapists in Philadelphia starts with knowing what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so it helps to look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy. A strong profile should make it clear how the therapist works with both partners and what kinds of relationship concerns they support.

In a large city like Philly, the number of options can make the search feel harder to narrow. Location may matter if you want in-person sessions near Center City, South Philly, University City, or another neighborhood that works for both schedules. Virtual appointments can also make it easier to find a time that fits two calendars. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, session structure, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation to assess fit for couples. Reading bios closely can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, approach, and experience with relationship counseling in Philadelphia.

Couples therapy in Philadelphia can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway helps you search for couples therapists in Philadelphia who are accepting new patients, offer virtual or in-person care, and accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can review therapist profiles, enter your insurance details for an estimated cost, 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.
