Jason Powell

About

jason powell is a licensed marriage and family therapist and an aasect certified sex therapist. his work is grounded in emotionally focused couples therapy and informed by the relational life institute’s model of infidelity repair. he guides individuals and couples through intimacy, communication, desire, and betrayal - drawing them toward clarity, connection, and quiet repair.

his practice in boston is deliberately private: no directories, no reviews, no noise. recognition may exist in forbes, glamour, self, women’s health, yahoo, and the knot, yet the work itself remains discreet - offered to those who arrive quietly, through trust, intention, or referral. in this way, thread & tether holds to its name: a fine strand that carries meaning and connection; a grounding line for the moments when love or self begins to drift.

clients are drawn to his presence because it is both precise and poetic, weaving evidence-based care with an attunement to what lives beneath the surface. here, intimacy is treated as an art, repair as a discipline, and privacy as the condition for both. for those who long to know and be known more deeply, this is a space held in quiet

questions that often arrive before the work begins

1. from what places do clients most often arrive?

Icon

many come with questions of intimacy and desire, others with the ache of disconnection or betrayal. couples arrive when communication has fractured, or when trust has worn thin. individuals arrive when they feel unseen, unheard, or uncertain of their erotic life. the work begins wherever the thread has frayed - and moves toward repair.

2. how is the work held - in person in boston, or privately across distance, including for clients based in the uk?

Icon

sessions may be held in person in boston, or privately across distance for clients throughout the u.s. - including massachusetts, new york, connecticut, arizona, and several other licensed states - as well as across the united kingdom. both formats are designed to carry the same quiet precision: depth, discretion, and attunement held steady. whether in the calm of the office, the quiet of a walk, or the stillness of a screen, the work remains private, personal, and exacting.

3. why are phone numbers and addresses not broadly published?

Icon

discretion is not an afterthought at thread & tether; it is built into the architecture of the practice itself. there are no google listings, no reviews, no public directories. while the boston office address is named here for those arriving in person, and private lines are shared once work begins, these details are never scattered into public forums. in this way, what is most private remains protected - the work held apart from noise, anchored instead in trust, discernment, and intention.

4. what is concierge therapy?

Icon

concierge therapy offers a discreet and flexible form of care. it provides on-call access, private scheduling, and support shaped around the rhythms of your life. sessions may be held in the office, virtually, or arranged in private settings such as a home or hotel. for those who require immediacy and discretion, it is therapy designed to meet you where you are - with continuity, privacy, and depth.

5. what is an immersive intensive, and who is it for?

Icon

an immersive intensive is a full-day, or weekend devoted entirely to the work of repair. couples who have faced infidelity, rupture, or long-standing distance often choose this form when weekly sessions cannot hold the urgency of what needs to be addressed. intensives allow for deep movement in concentrated time - intimacy rewoven not in months, but in days.
