Virtual Couples Therapy • Massachusetts
Couples Therapy for Wellesley Residents
Private couples therapy from the privacy of your own home
Understanding Wellesley Couples
In Wellesley the Saturday can fill with games, school events, and a house that looks exactly right, while the conversation about the relationship waits in the car. Executives, physicians, attorneys, and academics are good at keeping the week moving. The marriage often gets the leftover hour.
A lot of the couples I meet here are also deciding whether to have a child, or when. One of you may feel ready, and the other may want the relationship to feel steadier first. That disagreement does not get solved between errands.
We meet by video, so you are not walking into a local office where a neighbor from the sideline might be sitting. You need to be physically in Massachusetts during the session, and evening and weekend times are available.
Specialized Services for Wellesley Couples
I only work with couples, and that is the whole practice, so here is where I can help with the relationship in front of you.
General Couples Therapy
You keep having the same argument, and by now you could recite your partner's part, so we look at why you end up there and what each of you contributes.
Learn More →Infidelity Recovery
An affair can leave you questioning more than fidelity, and we address the betrayal directly, including the responsibility of the person who chose it.
Learn More →Intimacy & Sex Therapy
Feeling unwanted hurts, and so does feeling pressured or misunderstood, so we make room for an honest conversation about your sexual relationship.
Learn More →Neurodiverse Couples
When autism or ADHD is part of the relationship, advice that ignores that difference can leave both of you more frustrated, and I am a Certified Neurodiverse Couples Therapist (AANE).
Learn More →Maintenance Therapy
You do not have to wait until you are wondering whether the relationship will survive, because starting while you still like each other is a reasonable decision.

Complete Privacy
There is no waiting room and no chance of running into a neighbor, a colleague, or a friend, because you meet from your own home.
Schedule Flexibility
Evening and weekend appointments are available, and because I keep a small caseload I can usually move a session when something urgent comes up between meetings. If you or your partner are in crisis or unsafe, call or text 988, or call 911.
Expert-Level Care
I only see couples, I have done this work for more than 20 years, and I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman Method Level 3, Relational Life Therapy, and sex therapy.
No Commute
You can skip the drive and log in from home, a hotel room, or any place where you can close the door, as long as you are physically in a state where I am licensed.
The Investment
I do not accept insurance, and I can give you a superbill for out-of-network reimbursement if you have questions about HSA, FSA or your plan, and the consultation is 30 minutes and $100, applied toward your first session, and I refund that fee if I am not the right fit.

Couples Counseling for Wellesley Couples Preparing for Parenthood
The Conversations That Come Before a Baby
Deciding whether to have a child is one of the biggest conversations a couple has, and it rarely arrives for both of you in the same month. Wellesley couples often bring careers, timing, and a relationship that already feels stretched. One of you may be ready, and the other may be uncertain. You may both want children and still disagree about when, or about what needs to feel steadier between you first.
Having that conversation before a pregnancy gives both of you a chance to be heard. I will not push you toward a decision, and the work is to say the true thing while you can still hear each other, and to see what each of you contributes to the stall.
How the Work Helps, and Why 90 Minutes Matters
We look at the cycle under the disagreement: who pushes, who pulls back, and what keeps the same conversation stalling. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy as the main framework. I also have Gottman Method Level 3 training, Relational Life Therapy training, and sex therapy training, and I have worked only with couples for more than 20 years.
Every session is 90 minutes, because a 50-minute hour often ends just as the real conversation opens. We generally start weekly. What you do at home between sessions matters more than what you understand on the call. As those changes become consistent, we space the sessions out. You meet from home, with no waiting room and no neighbor in the next chair.
Common Questions from Wellesley Couples
Do you offer counseling for Wellesley couples deciding whether to start a family?
Yes. I provide virtual couples counseling for Wellesley, Massachusetts couples working through the decision to have children, whether you are preparing together or one of you feels ready while the other is not sure. The work uses Emotionally Focused Therapy, with Gottman Method Level 3 tools where they help, so both of you can be heard before the next stage. This is relationship counseling. It is not medical or fertility care.
Can we do these sessions from home in Wellesley?
Yes. Every session is virtual and runs 90 minutes over a private video call. Many Wellesley couples want that privacy: no commute, no waiting room, and no chance of running into a colleague or neighbor. I only see couples. Evening and weekend appointments are available. You need to be physically in Massachusetts during the session.
What approach do you use with couples preparing for parenthood?
I only work with couples. Emotionally Focused Therapy is the main framework, and I use Gottman Method Level 3 tools where they fit. We look at the pattern driving the disagreement, which is what lets you make a decision this large with both of you actually in the conversation. Sessions are 90 minutes. I have focused only on couples for more than 20 years.
