Hi, I'm Yaffa. I'm a psychotherapist in Boston.
I provide talk therapy to clients in Massachusetts who are living with anxiety, depression, ADHD, fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, parenting, and much more. No matter how big or small you feel the problem is that you are facing, I can help you through it - you do not need to manage this alone!
I live in Newton with my husband, kids, and pup, Kira.
My speciality is perinatal psychotherapy, which includes infertility, pregnancy, miscarriage, infant loss, and postpartum depression, anxiety and OCD. I am Certified in Perinatal Mental Health through Postpartum Support International. I offer complimentary consultation calls, and if I can't help you, I will point you in the direction of someone who can!
My Services.
Individual Psychotherapy
Sessions are 45-55 minutes, held over a secure platform, and can be weekly, biweekly, or monthly based on the client's needs.
My rate for telehealth sessions is $225/hour. I also have a sliding scale and, provide receipts (also known as superbills) for insurance reimbursement.
Clinical Supervision
I offer supervision for social work interns and LCSWs. I have been supervising interns for 7+ years and have been told that I am caring and attentive, and in tune with clinical issues.
Support Groups
Sometimes a group is exactly what we need to feel supported and less alone in our experiences. I am currently offering a postpartum support group through the Boston Birth Village.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
I offer a therapeutic modality called Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), the use of ketamine as a complement to psychotherapy. If you would like to explore the possibility of working with me on KAP, please e-mail me to discuss eligibility and next steps.

If you're in need of a village
Boston Birth Village was founded by my sister and I and we each have three kids, and we supported each other through our pregnancies and late nights awake with babies. We could not have managed without each other! We have a passion for creating a supportive community for parents in their journey through birth and postpartum. We strive to empower our clients through education and personalized care, to help parents feel empowered and confident in their parenting journey. With our family-based approach, we offer a true sense of community, and we believe that every parent deserves a village to support them.
