Caring and creative licensed professional with over 20 years' combined experience in education, mental health, and healthcare sectors, bringing together a uniquely diverse set of clinical and evaluative skills in order to promote optimal human development and functioning.
I am a warm, well-rounded, resourceful, and seasoned Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Massachusetts with 16 years of experience in the field (six of which are at Thriveworks). I have graduate degrees from Harvard and UMass Boston.
I am an innovative, accessible helper with experience helping a wide variety of individuals. I help clients see how physical and mental health are interconnected, and I help them work through stuck thinking, like ambivalence, rumination, and spiral thinking, teaching tools for change. I rely on psychological theories and evidence-based modalities.
I am straightforward and easy to talk with, emotionally and intellectually present during sessions, and will give it my all. I am relentless in helping and I do my best in getting my clients to a better place.

As a compassionate and culturally conscious psychotherapist with over 8 years of experience, I specialize in addressing a wide range of mental health concerns and supporting individuals facing complex life challenges and stressors, integrating empathy, cultural sensitivity, and evidence-based practices to empower individuals, couples, and families to thrive.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 20 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, PTSD, depression, stress, major life transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after difficult past experiences, I’m here to help you navigate what comes next. I believe in expanding your resilience, building on your strengths, and helping you move through life with more clarity, confidence, and emotional freedom.
I hold a master’s in clinical mental health counseling from Bay Path University. I integrate acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, family systems, and an interpersonal process to offer individualized, culturally responsive, and compassionate care.
I know that no single approach works for everyone, so I show up with curiosity, empathy, and a bit of humor as we get to know one another. Together, we’ll explore new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating to the world so you can realign with your values, reconnect with yourself, and build the life you want to live.

As a queer artist, I harness my creativity to serve my clients.
My name is Autumn, and I was a peer support for 10 years before I became a clinician. I received my master's of social work from Salem State University, and I enjoy working with people who are creative and emotional. I have worked with people managing depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma/PTSD, bipolar, and schizoaffective disorder. I love to see my clients connecting to social supports, exploring their interests, and building relationships.
My primary focus is on client empowerment. This includes helping to identify environmental factors oppressing your growth and healing, how to navigate imperfect systems to meet your needs, and community building—because healing is not individual work. Healing happens with other people, within communities and relationships. Modalities I use include CBT, DBT, ACT, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy.
I can't wait to find the spark of inspiration that lights you up and helps you feel confident to follow your heart. Even one session might help you begin making amazing changes.

As an empathetic individual it is Tiffany's passion to help people of all kinds through therapeutic skill, technique and cultural awareness.
Tiffany Marro has worked in the mental health field for more than five years. She has worked with individuals ranging in age from 4 to 25+ years old. Specifically, Tiffany has experience working with children and young adults on the autism spectrum. She has seen children, teens, young adults, and adults for individual counseling. Tiffany's passion is working with children, young adults, and couples for couples/marriage counseling. She has helped her clients work on goals of all kinds, such as communication skills, interpersonal skills, depression, anxiety, grief, motivation, and relationships, to name a few.
In 2016 Tiffany graduated with her Bachelor's Degree in counseling from the University of New Haven. Tiffany then graduated from Eastern Nazarene College in 2020 with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy. Tiffany envisions therapy as a collaborative effort. Tiffany believes that when she and the client have a great rapport and actively engage in honest communication and therapeutic techniques clients will undoubtedly achieve their mental health goals. Tiffany feels her clinical superpower is the ability to empathize. Growing up in a city surrounded by diverse people and cultures of all lifestyles has given Tiffany an additional sense of awareness that contributes to her understanding and ability to empathize. Tiffany facilitates strength-based therapy and emits positive energy. All of which allows space for the therapeutic process to be successful.
Tiffany understands it may be difficult to reach out for help or start something new. This may be your first time considering therapy or this may be your fifth attempt at finding the right counselor. Tiffany would like for you to know that it's important to her that the therapeutic space feels safe and you're able to set the pace.

My go-to approach for helping people in couples/marriage counseling is to understand what their goals are and to conduct a thorough history of their respective backgrounds. I also like using an educational approach because the couple is more motivated if they understand why we use particular methods.
I teach the following tools in couples/marriage counseling: active listening, attachment theory including respective styles of attachment, and the abundant resources available through the Gottman method to increase perspective-taking and reduce conflict.
I know a couple is making meaningful progress in couples/marriage counseling when they report that they're reaching goals they initially set, their understanding of one another increases, and there is greater emotional bonding.
Clients can supplement their time in couples/marriage counseling by reading books or articles or listening to podcasts or YouTube videos specific to enhancing their respective goals. Also, mindfully practicing active listening a few times per week, setting boundaries as needed, and taking small steps each day to build intimacy are all meaningful ways to improve the emotional bond.
To prepare for your first couples/marriage counseling session, you can read about your clinician's profile to get to know that individual better. But mostly, understand that you're the driver of this process. It is up to your comfort level what you disclose and how much time you want to invest. Finally, your clinician is on your team and wants to help you clarify and reach your goals!
Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
The stress and strain of relationship issues can take their toll on a marriage, and they occur more commonly than many people may think. As the years go by, little differences can weigh on spouses—or a larger problem may occur. However, just because relationship issues aren’t uncommon doesn’t make them trivial or always easy to deal with.
If you and your spouse are struggling with a relationship issue, pursuing marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks Counseling in Westborough can certainly be beneficial; in fact, the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapists advises the sooner you and your husband or wife can begin counseling, the more likely you are to have a successful outcome. Reach out to Thriveworks today to get started.
