Stephane Carvalho

Therapist

Virtual • Boston, MA


Hi, I’m Stephane Carvalho, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts. Originally trained as a psychologist in Brazil, I now work with individuals, couples, and families to help them build stronger, more connected relationships.

Whether you’re navigating conflict, communication challenges, anxiety, or the desire to reconnect with yourself, therapy can be a space to understand your emotional patterns and create change that lasts.

As an immigrant therapist, I deeply understand what it means to navigate life between cultures — finding belonging while holding on to your roots. That perspective shapes the way I support clients from diverse backgrounds, always honoring their stories, identities, and values.

Kerry Parsons

Kerry Parsons

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Medway, MA


I am a Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who offers compassionate, trauma-informed medication management within a warm, collaborative space. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, mood changes, trauma-related symptoms, and periods of transition, and I deeply value creating a sense of safety and understanding in the therapeutic relationship.

I approach mental health with curiosity and care, believing that symptoms often carry important information about what the nervous system has been holding or managing for a long time. Clients often share that they feel heard, respected, and less alone in our work together. My intention is to support people in reconnecting with themselves and moving through life with greater steadiness and self-trust.

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 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.
