Stronger Connections with Online Family Counseling

Helping Your Family Navigate Life, Together

Our family counseling is all about helping you reconnect, communicate better, and create a more peaceful home life, without the pressure or the conflict. Unlike couples counseling, which zooms in on just two people, family therapy looks at the whole picture because everyone plays a part. We make space for every voice to be heard and understood, so your family can move forward with more connection, clarity, and support.

Effective Tools for Harmony at Home

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for family therapy helps families understand and improve the way they communicate, solve problems, and support one another. By exploring how each member’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence the family dynamic, CBT encourages healthier interactions and more effective coping strategies. Whether dealing with conflict, major life changes, or emotional challenges like anxiety or behavioral issues, CBT provides structured tools to reduce tension, build empathy, and foster mutual respect. The process is collaborative and goal-focused, helping families strengthen their connection, improve communication, and create a more stable and supportive home environment. We help families discover practical tools that work for them and support a smoother, more connected day-to-day life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked
Your Therapist Answers

Is online therapy effective?

Yes, absolutely! In fact, some experts believe that being in the comfort of your own space can actually make therapy more effective than traditional in-person sessions.

CBT is a type of talk therapy that helps you recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It focuses on how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected—and teaches practical strategies for handling life’s challenges more effectively.
As soon as you reach out, we’ll schedule a free 15-minute consultation to make sure we’re the right fit. From there, we’ll book your first session. Already a client? You can schedule anytime through the Client Portal.
Therapy is a supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment. Whether you’re navigating stress, building better habits, or seeking personal growth, therapy offers tools, insight, and encouragement for the journey.
We get it—life is busy. That’s why our sessions are fully online, so you can fit therapy into your life on your schedule, wherever you feel most at ease.

Therapy can support you in all kinds of ways, depending on your goals and your commitment to the process. Many clients find they:

 

  • Manage stress, anxiety, and depression more effectively
  • Cope with grief, life changes, or tough emotions
  • Set personal goals and build healthy habits
  • Improve communication and relationship skills
  • Boost self-esteem and confidence
  • Replace negative patterns with healthier ones
  • Gain fresh perspective and feel more in control
All providers currently take BCBS, Harvard Pilgrim, and UHC plans that are supported by BCBS or Harvard Pilgrim. We are in the process of adding AETNA, Medicare and MassHealth. We also happily invite self-pay clients.

Nicole is a therapist who brings 15+ years of experience in mental health and family care — and she knows that opening up isn’t always easy. With a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy, she works with teens (15+), adults, and couples navigating anxiety, stress, depression, big life shifts, and tricky relationship dynamics.

 

Nicole has a special knack for connecting with people who feel unsure about therapy. She creates a space that’s judgment-free, genuinely supportive, and maybe even a little lighter than you’d expect. Her style is warm, honest, and collaborative — helping you break down walls, one step at a time, and find clarity in the chaos.

 

Wherever you’re starting from, Nicole’s here to meet you there — and walk with you toward something better.
