Yes, we are currently accepting new clients. To get started send an email to admin@beacontherapy.org.  Please include your name, insurance company (if you plan to use), and how you were referred to Beacon Therapy Group.

We are preferred providers for Boston University, Tufts University, Boston College, and Brown University insurance plans. Students from these universities will receive priority.

The focus of the first session is to have a better understanding of what you are coming to therapy for. First we want to make sure that  it’s a good fit. It is a conversation in which your clinician learns what is working for you in your life and what challenges you are faced with.

Prior to coming in, you will have completed basic intake paperwork and a questionnaire through an online client portal. At any time, you are welcome to decline to answer a question I ask (or wait until more trust is established).

In these first couple sessions, you and your clinician will identify the focus of treatment and an approach for treatment. This is a collaborative endeavor that you and your clinician negotiate together.  Your clinician will offer possibilities and seek your input regarding your preferences and can consider what has worked or not worked in the past.

To learn more about the first session go to the New Clients page.
