Hi, I'm Dr. Arthur Chen, a licensed psychologist in Boca Raton and a Clinical Director. My passion is helping you navigate challenges and build lasting well-being through evidence-based strategies, genuine empathy, and active collaboration.

I specialize in Major Depressive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, eating disorder recovery, and substance abuse recovery. Our practice, where I'm Clinical Director, also handles severe issues like bipolar disorder and psychosis.

My style is active, empathetic, and results-oriented. I don't just listen; I provide direct feedback and insightful questions to deepen your self-awareness. I'll gently challenge you to explore new perspectives and identify patterns, always in a safe space. My core is unconditional positive regard and profound care, ensuring you feel safe and accepted, truly heard and understood.

My strength is equipping you with practical skills for daily life. I provide concrete tools to manage difficult emotions, improve communication, develop robust coping mechanisms, and cultivate emotional resilience. My commitment is tangible results: symptom reduction, sustainable recovery, deeper self-discovery, and ultimately, an improved quality of life. Whether you want to "figure things out" or enhance your mental fitness, I'm here to guide you.

Ready to stop managing the noise and finally start living?

You are exhausted from carrying everyone else's luggage. On paper, you are high-functioning, capable, and the one everyone turns to. But inside, the mental noise feels like a car alarm that has been blaring for days without stopping. You have tried analyzing your thoughts, policing your anxiety, and forcing yourself to stay calm, but your heart is simply tired of the old way of surviving.

You don't need another clinical checklist or a rigid set of coping mechanisms. You need a space where it is safe to completely drop your armor.

I help people heal from trauma, with a special focus on sexual trauma, and I’ve been honored to support a wide range of individuals — including women, men, military veterans, and LGBTQIA clients — as they work through their experiences and take meaningful steps toward healing. I also enjoy helping people work through challenging life transitions (e.g., parenthood, divorce, etc.) and identity-specific concerns (e.g., men's issues, women's issues, gender identity exploration). In addition to individual therapy, I also provide relationship therapy for monogamous, non-monogamous, and open relationships as well as psychological assessment (e.g., ADHD, dementia, learning disorder, mental health) for adults.

As a triple board-certified nurse practitioner ( nurse midwife, family practitioner, and mental health), I believe that caring for your mind is just as important as caring for your body. I have many years of experience in the perinatal mental health field, but I enjoy caring for all walks of life. I currently care for clients aged 10-65 for many conditions, including depression, anxiety, mood/bipolar, PTSD, and perinatal disorders, among others.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Greensboro

Finding the right LGBTQIA-affirming therapist in Greensboro starts with knowing what to look for. An affirming provider does more than accept LGBTQIA+ clients — they have training or lived experience that helps them understand the specific challenges you may face, from navigating family dynamics and coming out to processing discrimination or religious harm. Look for providers who mention LGBTQIA-affirming care as a specialty, and read their bios to understand their approach before reaching out.

Beyond specialty, consider practical factors that affect whether you'll stick with care long-term. Think about whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, what days and times work for your schedule, and whether a provider's communication style feels like a good match. A free phone consultation can help you gauge fit before committing to a full session.

Therapy in Greensboro can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to make affirming care affordable. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an LGBTQIA-affirming therapist who fits both your needs and your budget.
