Hello, I’m Charles, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) dedicated to helping adults build healthier, more fulfilling lives. I work with individuals and couples facing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and major life transitions.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I believe mental health ties to many different aspects of our lives. Many people find it difficult to ask for help and I can see the difference when people make that first step. My goal is that people do not struggle alone and I am here to help. I work with adults of all ages but really enjoy working with couples and women who experience anxiety, depression, or PTSD.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Arlington, MA
Searching for couples therapists in Arlington starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. As you compare Arlington couples therapy options, look for a therapist with specific couples training. Licensed marriage and family therapists, as well as therapists trained in approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy, may be a strong fit for relationship-focused care.
In a smaller market like Arlington, finding one therapist who works for both partners can take added coordination. Virtual couples therapy can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still giving you access to Arlington therapists who fit your schedule and preferences. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether the session format works for both partners. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they structure couples sessions, which relationship concerns they focus on, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation to assess fit.
Counseling in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who offer couples therapy, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready. You can browse profiles, check availability, and look for a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new clients.
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.
