Reach OutTelehealth Across the Commonwealth
Ala Therapy Collective is licensed to see Massachusetts clients by secure telehealth. You do not have to live near a major city or take time off work to find a therapist who fits. We work with adults navigating anxiety and depression, trauma, life transitions, identity, and the weight of carrying too much for too long. Sessions happen wherever you are, on a schedule that works around your life.
Yes, we are based in Oklahoma. Our Massachusetts clients tend to be surprised by how at home they feel with us anyway. Good care is good care, wherever it is licensed.

Common Questions
Are you actually licensed in Massachusetts?
Yes. Kenzie Langford, LICSW, is licensed in Massachusetts and sees clients across the state by secure telehealth. No travel, no waiting room.
Do I have to live near Boston?
No. Telehealth means we meet wherever you are in Massachusetts, from the city to the Berkshires to the Cape. You need a private space and a connection, that is it.
Is online therapy really as good as sitting in an office?
For most of what we work on, yes. The research holds up, and plenty of people find it easier to say the hard things from their own couch than in an office across from someone they met ten minutes ago.
Do you take my insurance in Massachusetts?
We are in-network with many Massachusetts plans, and we verify your benefits before your first session so you know your cost up front. You can see our full insurance list any time.
I need an immigration evaluation in Massachusetts. Can you help?
Yes, and it is the one thing our founder keeps for herself. Shylah Ridgway handles immigration evaluations for Massachusetts cases personally. If an attorney has asked you for a psychological evaluation, that is what this is. The immigration evaluations page walks you through it.
