"You are not a mess. You are a deeply feeling person in a messy world." - Glennon Doyle

Carmen Pullella, LICSW is a telehealth therapist based in Boston, MA. She has been in the field of clinical social work for 7 years, with experience in community mental health, partial hospitalization level of care, as well as individual, couples, and interpersonal group therapy.

Many of her clients often feel stuck in life and limited in their confidence to feel better. Often this shows up as depression, anxiety, mood instability, unhelpful coping skills, self-doubt and general distress affecting many parts of life. Carmen has special interest and clinical knowledge in topics relating to relationships: boundaries, codependency, attachment, relational trauma, relationship anxiety/R-OCD and love addiction.

Carmen offers a warm, genuine, empowering approach, mirrored by her own honesty, presence, and insight. As a queer, neurodivergent and bi-cultural individual, Carmen understands the many layers that accompany these life experiences, and is passionate about offering those with shared identities a space to be seen, understood, and validated.

Therapy goals are addressed via a personalized approach, often including evidence-based modalities such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or theoretical frameworks such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Mindfulness Practices, Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, Relational Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Attachment Based Therapy.
