Practice Information
At our practice, we are a team of licensed psychologists with the highest level of training and a deep commitment to delivering personalized, evidence-based care. We welcome individuals from all backgrounds and offer individual, group, and couples therapy for adults, along with specialized coaching in parenting, relationships, career development, and leadership. Our integrated, research-driven approach is grounded in building honest, trusting relationships and draws from relational, insight-oriented, and skill-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). We also pay close attention to the social, cultural, and systemic factors that shape our clients' experiences and well-being.
We believe that effective therapy is built on a thoughtful blend of insight and actionable skill-building, tailored to the unique goals of each client. Our work is guided by a deep respect for human resilience and the belief that adversity can be a powerful catalyst for growth. We see every therapeutic encounter as an opportunity to help individuals reconnect with their values, foster meaningful change, and cultivate greater vitality, clarity, and life satisfaction.
Our core values—freedom, health, honesty, inclusivity, resilience, tolerance, and values-based living—are embedded in everything we do. We believe in the power of relationships to both hurt and heal, and in each person's inherent capacity to grow. Through compassionate, collaborative care, we aim to create a space where clients can feel safe, seen, and empowered to live in alignment with what matters most to them.
FAQS
What services does your practice offer?
Aviva Psychology Services clinicians provide individual and marriage/couples therapy. We are a group practice of over 25 clinicians who offer in-person services in Boston and Northampton as well as virtual options.
Our practice offers a range of services designed to support adults in cultivating insight, developing skills, and making meaningful, values-driven change. We provide individual, group, and couples therapy using empirically supported treatments tailored to each client’s needs, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other relational and insight-oriented approaches. In addition to therapy, we offer parent, career, relationship, and leadership coaching as a distinct, time-limited, present-focused service aimed at building transferable skills in these key areas. All of our services are grounded in a theory- and research-informed framework that honors the importance of a trusting therapeutic relationship and takes into account the social, cultural, and systemic factors that impact mental health and well-being.

Our team has extensive training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and relational psychotherapies, allowing us to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs.
