My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I also believe therapy should be tailored to each individual—there’s no one-size-fits-all path to growth. Together, we’ll explore the patterns, thoughts, and experiences that may be holding you back and develop practical tools to help you move forward. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported as you build the life you want.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boston
Finding a family therapist in Boston starts with identifying what your family is working through. Family therapists are licensed providers trained to work with multiple family members — including parents and children, siblings, blended families, and extended relatives — on concerns like communication breakdowns, parenting disagreements, major life transitions, and unresolved conflict. Some providers also work with individual family members who want to improve how they show up in family relationships.
Boston has a large number of licensed family therapists, including LICSWs, LMHCs, LMFTs, and psychologists. When comparing providers, look for someone with experience in your family's specific situation and an approach that feels like the right match. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style before you reach out, and a free phone consultation can help you decide if they're the right fit.
Family therapy in Boston can be expensive, but using in-network insurance coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to see estimated costs upfront, so you know what to expect before your first appointment.
