Yes. Therefore is usually used at the start of a sentence, to indicate a concluding idea or thought. The comma following it is used as a pause, separating the connecting word from the idea or thought.

Strangely enough, a comma is not used in my sentence above because " Therefore " is used as the subject of the verb is, rather than used as a connecting word to a previous idea or statement.
