My book, BePurBold: A Woman's Journey to Whole Body Wellness, reflects my belief that lasting mental health is rooted in lifestyle, resilience, and whole-person well-being. My goal is to offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, valued, and active partners in their own care.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. There are credentials I could list and ways for you to assess why I am the right clinician for you, and while those things matter, what I find most true is this: I care deeply about this work.

Finding the right therapist is hard, and on behalf of all therapists, I'm sorry this is true. I won't promise a "safe space" for the people I work with, but I can promise an accountable one. I am committed to learning alongside you, knowing that we will teach each other what comes next. I will create the container for our work, and together, I hope to build a foundation of trust that allows you to heal, grow, challenge, accept, and integrate all that has brought you here.

Many people who come to see me are living with depression, overwhelmed with anxiety, or are processing and healing from past trauma. You might be going through a major life transition or find your usual ways of coping are no longer working. You might feel stuck, uncertain, and disconnected from yourself. Investing in therapy can be difficult when there are so many other things that demand your attention. My role is to help you explore what is important to you, what is getting in the way, and make realistic, actionable steps towards your goals.

Disclaimer: My current role as an Access Clinician at Harvard University Health Services allows me to work with folx from all walks of life. I hold a small caseload in my private practice to focus on my clinical interests. Due to my role, I do not see any actively enrolled Harvard students in my private practice. However, this means you can see me at CAMHS for short-term counseling.

Therapist

I work with adolescents and adults navigating addiction across the full spectrum, including alcohol and other substances, compulsive or process-based behaviors, early recovery, relapse vulnerability, long-term recovery, and transitions out of inpatient or higher levels of care. I also support clients experiencing co-occurring challenges such as anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, and major life transitions.

I have been working in the behavioral health field since 2015, with experience in addiction and mental health treatment across a range of settings and levels of care. I hold a Master of Social Work from Simmons University and am LCSW-eligible. I work with adolescents (13+) and adults, and I welcome clients at all stages of readiness, including those who feel unsure, ambivalent, or overwhelmed by change.

At the core of my work is the belief that addiction is rarely just about the behavior itself. It often reflects deeper emotional, relational, and stress-based patterns that deserve understanding rather than judgment. I place strong value on helping clients build internal resources while also connecting them to supportive services and external supports when additional structure or care would be helpful.

Responsive, Respectful, Results.

Hi there-I'm Art Yeh (pronounced "yay!"). I've been a behavioral health nurse for over 15 years. I've worked as a prescriber in a wide array of settings (inpatient, outpatient, nursing homes, urgent care) in different states.

I've done psychiatric consulting and specialize in many disorders including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorders, and psychosis.

I currently treat adult clients.

I made myself a dynamic behavioral health provider by actively providing virtual behavioral health services to adult clients in 5 different states (Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Nevada, Washington). I currently reside in California.

***Due to tele-health limitations and constraints, if suicidal thoughts are present, please refer to psychiatric urgent care services and/or an in-person provider. In addition, only the client is allowed during all sessions.

***Should you require assistance with all paperwork please note that it requires 3 months of prior consistent treatment. Thank you.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boston

Finding a postpartum therapist in Boston starts with identifying what you're experiencing and the type of support you need. Postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and other perinatal mood concerns are common, and a qualified healthcare professional can help you explore support options. Look for a licensed therapist, counselor, or psychiatrist who has specific experience with perinatal mental health — credentials like PMH-C (Perinatal Mental Health Certification) can signal specialized training. On Headway, you can read detailed provider bios to learn about their approach, areas of focus, and what to expect before you reach out.

Practical factors matter too, especially when you're adjusting to life with a new baby. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions in your Boston neighborhood or virtual appointments you can attend from home. A provider's availability, session format, and communication style can all influence whether care feels manageable to start and sustain. Many Headway providers offer a free phone consultation, giving you a chance to connect before committing to a first session.

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. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit — making it easier to prioritize your mental health care during the postpartum period without added financial stress.
