Hello.

I'm Andrea Kremer, and I’m a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the Greater Boston area, seeing clients in Massachusetts via telehealth. I hold a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Cambridge College, with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy. I’m also working toward LMFT licensure in Massachusetts.

In my postgraduate training, I worked with clients from diverse backgrounds, from adolescents to adults, in community mental health and group practice settings. Some of the issues I helped clients manage included anxiety and phobias, depression, substance use disorder, trauma, chronic illness, relationship issues, infidelity, and divorce.

In 2024, I completed a 2-year fellowship in couples therapy with the Psychodynamic Couple and Family Institute of New England (PCFINE), where I was introduced to psychodynamic concepts in working with couples. I also integrate training in cognitive behavioral therapy, Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and the Gottman Method, tailoring an approach that fits each client’s unique needs. I keep my caseload small so I can give each client the time and attention they need, and keep myself current on continuing education and emerging research.

I also draw wisdom from leading thinkers in the field of relationship counseling: Esther Perel, Dr. Orna Guralnik, Lori Gottlieb, Dr. Alexandra Solomon, Vienna Pharaon. Other mental health experts whose work I follow and admire: Dr. Stephen Hassan on coercive control, Kristin Neff on self-compassion, Dr. Justin Lehmiller on sexuality, Dr. Eli Sheff on polyamory, and Dr. Emily Nagoski on female sexuality, long-term intimacy, and burnout. 

When not seeing clients, I’m proud to serve on the Board of Directors of the Massachusetts Mental Health Counselors Association (MAMHCA), and the New England Association for Family and Systemic Therapy (NEAFAST). It’s important to me to support not only my clients, but also my fellow mental health professionals.

If you’re wondering why my work tends to center relationships, and why I’m so fascinated by them: basically — according to science — if you want a long and happy life, the most reliable way to get one is by creating and nurturing all kinds of supportive, fulfilling relationships. Sometimes, that starts with the relationship we create in therapy.
