Therapists in Milton Village, MA

Psalms 121 "I lift up my eyes to the mountains where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth." I have worked with children, preteens, and families in Massachusetts and Northern California in the United States, serving populations facing developmental issues, emotional disturbance, and relational conflicts in the past two decades. My bilingual (Chinese & English) psychotherapeutic approach integrates theories and therapies, e.g., attachment-based, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal neurobiology, etc., and Christianity to enhance spiritual and emotional health.

Welcome! I am a licensed Psychotherapist who is passionate about supporting clients in healing through difficult situations. I feel honored to work with folks in such a meaningful way and believe therapy can lead to lasting personal transformation. I have received special training from the Cognitive Behavioral Institute in the treatment of OCD and anxiety disorders and I am certified in ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) which is the evidenced based treatment for OCD.

I work with individuals and couples experiencing relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I work from an interpersonal, attachment-based, and family systems lens, informed by body awareness and mindfulness practices. I also use parts work, including IFS, to support clients to navigate challenging emotional states with compassion and intention.

Accepting new clients for the summer months, late May - early September. I believe in the healing power of relationships. At its best, therapy can be a place of offering company and witnessing to the parts of you that feel the most alone, fearful, ashamed, and uncertain.

I provide a safe, warm, and relationally based space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and concerns without judgment. My style is grounded, gentle, and welcoming. Through deeply listening to my client's story and validating their experience I aim to empower them to better understand and comfort themselves so they can ultimately thrive in their lives independent of therapy.

My practice, Rooted Life Therapy, is grounded in the belief that effective therapy is meant to help us bloom and thrive wherever our roots were planted. I work with both individuals and couples looking for growth and change in their lives. I have specific training and experience working with young adults in times of transition, identity formation, anxiety, grief & loss, depression, family planning, relational conflicts, and premarital preparation. I believe that therapy is meant to be a collaborative and empowering process of understanding one's self or relationship more deeply to create a life that is fulfilling and flourishes.

I am a psychotherapist specializing in relationship counseling. Couples most often come in saying, “we’re having difficulty communicating”. I understand relationship dynamics, emotional communication, and the neurophysiology of secure connections. I help clients better understand their patterns of connection as well as conflict, and I will help make your relationship stronger.

Limited availability at this time. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has provided psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults, and families across the life spectrum for over 10 years. I have been told my style is warm, engaging, and dynamic. I believe that overcoming anxiety, depression, PTSD, complex trauma, and other forms of chronic and acute symptoms can happen within a collaborative and attachment-based therapeutic approach. Transformative healing is possible for all of us! It is an honor to be with my clients on each of their unique journeys.

I work with individuals to strengthen their sense of choice and meaning in their lives. I believe we can emerge more whole when we get curious about the parts of us that seem inglorious. I do not believe in oversimplifying the human condition into "good" or "bad" because there is more truth in the spectrum. I want therapy to be accessible, helpful and grounded in the reality that we live our day-to-day lives outside the therapy office. Good therapy extends beyond one hour a week; good therapy informs how we relate to, engage with and move through the real world.

Are you ready to integrate loving kindness and compassion into the relationship you have with yourself and others? This may seem an impossible healing for those who have endured relational betrayal, death, loss, hurt or trauma. However, shifting focus towards meaning, resilience, and possibility can liberate you from your past and present suffering. What does this mean for you and your loved ones? It means here is an invitation to sit with a non-judgmental human being while you recover, connect, and heal in new ways. It means you may shed old roles, affirm new strengths, and learn others with vulnerability and without guard.

Have you ever wondered if you could live a fuller, happier life? Whether you are "too far gone" or "too messed up" to ever be okay? I’ve wondered that. In my journey, I've discovered that it's possible to struggle deeply, then rise higher than seems plausible. I've also found healing and wholeness is impossible without support from others. Now I have a passion to provide the care I've experienced to each of my clients. The support you need won't be the same as what I’ve needed. Because your story is not mine. But if you’re looking for someone who has walked a long road to wellness, consider reaching out!

Waitlist Only - inquire if your schedule is flexible! Walk and Talk Outdoor Therapy: Offering weekly or bi-weekly outdoor therapy sessions in a walk and talk format for clients interested in in-person therapy in a non-traditional format outside of an office space. Dedicating an hour of your week for yourself to talk through challenges you’re facing while walking outdoors in nature is going to be an incredibly powerful form of self care. Let’s use this time to talk strategies to manage your anxiety, move through your grief, motivate yourself out of a depressive episode, and/or use movement and verbal expression as a form of medicine.

You're a millenial woman who tries to keep it all together on the outside, but on the inside you feel like a complete jumbled mess. You feel like anxiety, insecurity, and fear can jump into the driver's seat and take over at any moment. You can't imagine a time when you don't feel like you're faking it until you make it. But, some part of you knows that there can be another way.

Welcome! I am a Christian Counselor who is dedicated to helping adults heal and recover from mental health and substance abuse problems. I offer treatment for anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, substance abuse, and relationship issues.

As a somatic therapist, I’m trained to help you regulate your nervous system, work through trauma, and learn to process your feelings. Somatic experiencing is for people who have either been in therapy before and feel like they’re "talked out,” or who are new to therapy and want to try a more mind-body approach. This work is powerful and I’m so honored I get to share it with you and help you get to a more regulated place in your life.

Are you struggling with fear, sadness, loneliness and/or relational difficulties? Do you feel stuck, lost or aimless and aren't sure how to break free? If you're at a point where you are ready to heal and develop the capacity and skills to build the life you want you've found the right therapist. I believe you already have what you need inside you and my goal is to help you access that so that you can build a meaningful, connected and joyful life.

You're putting one foot in front of the other and you still feel lost, stuck, or overwhelmed by events and emotions in your life. Or, perhaps it's become hard to tackle the day-to-day and you're longing to reconnect with the person you used to be. Maybe you feel caught in the past or tangled up in the future, disconnected from all that your life has to offer in this moment. Whether you know exactly how you want your life to shift as a result of being in therapy, or, you know only that you want to feel better than you do now, there is the possibility of living the life that feels best for you.

What stands between you and your Happiness? I welcome you as we develop trust and explore what is getting in the way of you experiencing a more satisfying life. I have been privileged to work with children, teens, and adults with a wide variety of family histories. Often our childhood experiences play a big part in how we develop as adults. Post COVID 19, some have a new set of fears and real issues regarding work, health, and relationships. I have specialized and trained with ADD, Depression, Trauma, and, Anxiety, and there are many tools (Mindfulness, CBT, Compassionate Inquiry) that we can explore to see which is most supportive.
