Virtual Couples Therapy • Massachusetts
Couples Therapy for Wellesley Residents
Expert relationship therapy from the privacy of your home
Understanding Wellesley Couples
Wellesley is one of Boston's most affluent suburbs, known for its excellent schools, beautiful homes, and high-achieving professional families. The pressure to maintain appearances while managing demanding careers and family life creates unique challenges for couples here.
Home to executives, physicians, attorneys, and academics from nearby universities, Wellesley couples often struggle to find therapists who understand the particular pressures of maintaining success while nurturing a relationship.
The drive for excellence that defines Wellesley extends to relationships—couples here want real solutions, not surface-level advice. Virtual therapy eliminates the awkwardness of potentially running into neighbors at a local practice.

Couples Counseling for Wellesley Couples Preparing for Parenthood
The Conversations That Come Before a Baby
Deciding to start a family is one of the biggest conversations a couple ever has, and it rarely lands on both people at the same time or in the same way. The Wellesley couples I work with are often high-achieving professionals weighing careers, timing, and what parenthood will ask of a relationship that already feels stretched. One partner may feel ready while the other is uncertain; both may want children but disagree on when, or on what needs to feel steadier between them first.
Working through that together — before a pregnancy rather than in the middle of one — lets a couple get genuinely on the same page instead of quietly hoping the other will come around. The goal is never to push a decision. It is to help both partners feel fully heard and to build the shared footing that the next stage of life will rest on.
How the Work Helps, and Why 90 Minutes Matters
Effective couples therapy does more than trade communication tips. It reaches the emotional cycle underneath the disagreement — who pushes, who pulls back, and what keeps the same conversation stalling. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) as the primary framework and integrate Gottman Method tools where they help, drawing on more than 20 years working exclusively with couples.
Every session runs 90 minutes. For busy Wellesley couples that format matters: we cover far more ground than a standard 50-minute hour allows, and the longer, less frequent rhythm tends to fit demanding schedules better than weekly check-ins that end just as the real conversation opens up. Sessions are fully virtual, so the work happens from wherever you are comfortable, with no waiting room and no chance of running into a neighbor.
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 aligned and preparing together, or one of you feels ready while the other is not sure. This is relationship counseling using Emotionally Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method, focused on helping both partners feel heard and building a steady foundation before the next stage. 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 prefer this for the privacy alone — no commute, no waiting room, and no chance of running into a colleague or neighbor — while still getting specialist-level care focused solely on couples. Evening and weekend appointments are available for demanding schedules.
What approach do you use with couples preparing for parenthood?
I work exclusively with couples using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) as the main framework, integrating Gottman Method tools where they fit. The work gets underneath surface disagreements to the emotional pattern driving them, which is what helps a couple make a major decision like starting a family from a place of connection rather than conflict. Every session is 90 minutes, drawing on more than 20 years focused only on couples.
