Jennifer DeSouza, LMSW(She/Her/Hers)

Jennifer DeSouza, LICSW is a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist based in East Arlington, MA, offering in-person and virtual therapy for adults. With over 10 years of experience, she also leads in-person psychotherapy groups focused on relationships, communication, self-esteem, and emotional awareness.

Many of Jennifer’s clients are thoughtful, capable individuals who feel stuck—whether in patterns of anxiety, dissatisfaction, self-doubt, or relationships that aren’t working as they’d like. They’re often ready for deeper self-understanding and meaningful, lasting change, but aren’t sure how to get there.

Jennifer specializes in anxiety, dissatisfaction, and relationship concerns, helping clients better understand themselves and shift long-standing patterns that no longer serve them. Her relational, insight-oriented approach supports clients in developing clarity, confidence, and more fulfilling connections—with both themselves and others.

Her style is warm, collaborative, and in-depth. Jennifer tailors therapy to each person’s goals, integrating attachment-based and relational approaches with a mind–body perspective to support emotional balance and resilience.

She believes that therapy works best when it feels genuine, engaging, and grounded in a strong therapeutic relationship. Through this process, clients

build greater self-awareness, strengthen emotional insight, and learn to respond to themselves with more clarity and intention.

Jennifer is a Certified Group Psychotherapist and a Fellow of the American Group Psychotherapy Association, with advanced training in attachment-based therapy and group psychotherapy. Her office in East Arlington is conveniently located and accessible by public transportation.
