Arielle Chernin, LICSW

Psychotherapist
875 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA
Starting therapy can feel overwhelming for both children and parents, and it’s completely normal for big emotions to come up when beginning this process. On both a personal and professional level, I understand how challenging it can be to open up to someone new. I focus on creating a therapy experience that feels welcoming, supportive, and emotionally safe from the very first session. I specialize in working with children, teens, and families navigating anxiety, depression, adoption and foster care–related trauma, school refusal, grief, and relationship challenges. Building strong one-to-one therapeutic connections is at the center of my work. I bring warmth, authenticity, and humor into sessions to help young clients feel comfortable, understood, and engaged in the therapeutic process. My goal is to provide a supportive environment where children and teens can express themselves openly while parents feel guided and included in their child’s growth. I meet each client where they are, moving at a pace that feels manageable while supporting emotional resilience, confidence, and meaningful change.
