I get it, life can throw curveballs. Whether you're a survivor of trauma, or someone fighting against the weight of depression and anxiety, your pain is valid, and you're not alone. I've been in your shoes, and I've seen firsthand the resilience that lies within us. I'm Terri and can be your ally in overcoming life's toughest battles. As a fellow Marine Corps Veteran and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I'm dedicated to helping you conquer trauma, PTSD, depression, anger, and anxiety. I also work with couples.

Wenhui Yang is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with MAPsc LLC. Wenhui has 20+ years of experiencing working in various kinds of settings, including Community Outpatient Clinics, Emergency Services Program, Crisis Stabilization Units, Urgent Care Clinic, Psychiatric Admission Department, Trauma Center and latest Higher Education Counseling Centers. My lived in experience as an international student/an immigrant/an Asian/Asian American provider allow me to carry curious and multicultural lens while support individuals in managing emotions in relation to life events. I believe deeply in "you are the expert of your life experiences."

As an emerging clinician who relocated from California to Massachusetts, I bring the unique perspective of Restoration Therapy. From childhood, we develop ways to cope with pain. Later on, however, these coping methods may no longer be effective. Restoration Therapy organizes a cohesive narrative of our pain, brings insight into our coping strategies, and equips individuals and couples with agency towards making healthier choices that reflect a restoration of identity and safety. I am passionate about bridging the connection between first and second-generation Asian immigrants and focusing on issues of faith and religious trauma.

Although the road to wellness is not linear, there is hope, and change is possible. Depression and anxiety, worry, stress, and feeling overwhelmed- these are all familiar concerns and normal in the human experience. We've all experienced it. Sometimes they can be difficult to manage and that's when talk therapy can be incredibly useful. But most important: I'm glad you're here. Let's build a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

Talk, still the Best Medicine. I'm here for whom is looking for individualized, affordable psychotherapy for self understanding. I would be pleased to see you via phone or Zoom until offices are open again. To schedule an initial meeting, please contact me via email.

On the surface, it seems like you have it all together: a stable job, a social life, maybe even a relationship. But when you're alone, self-doubt, anxiety, and dissatisfaction creep in. You catch yourself fixating on imperfections or past mistakes, questioning your choices, comparing yourself against others', and wondering if you'll ever feel content. It's possible that amidst the hustle, you've lost sight of who you are, where you're headed, and why you’re working so hard. Maybe it feels difficult to slow down, be in the moment, and enjoy your successes. You want to feel better but you're stuck and the way forward feels unclear.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Chinese counselor. Being a Chinese woman myself, I have a profound understanding of the unique challenges that Asian individuals face in the American context. I strongly believe that culture plays a significant role in shaping our mental health. It influences our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Recognizing this, I am committed to empowering Asian individuals living in the United States.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults around life transitions, grief, adult and child ADD/ADHD, depression, anxiety, and stress. Additionally, as a first generation Asian Indian who was raised in the US, I have firsthand knowledge around the socially and culturally sensitive issues relating to the experience of immigrant families.

Currently accepting new clients!: I believe that we are our own healers. Through discovering and connecting to our own source of love, compassion and self-leadership we are awakened to our gifts of inner wisdom and healing. The therapeutic journey can sometimes be lonely, dark, scary, and confusing, and I am here to be a voice of compassion, hope, clarity and encouragement, reminding you to connect to your inner strength and wisdom. I am here to support you in understanding and creating whatever this may be for you in your life, whether it is an emotional, social, spiritual, or environmental changes.

I've been working with many young adults, especially Asian-Americans who are dealing with turning points in their lives such as relationships, career, and identities. I see many bi-cultural/bi-racial couples, families, and their children.

Life, a canvas of hues beyond black and white, navigates the challenge of gray areas for an immigrant like me. In this complex journey, adapting to a new environment and managing personal and professional challenges is a constant juggling act. Distance from loved ones and cultural differences add layers, challenging the handling of mounting pressures. Whether a traveling student, in an international marriage, an elderly person relocating overseas with adult children, or a parent sending children back for upbringing, unique struggles arise from the intricate complexities in a foreign land.

Who you are: a millennial individual (or couple!) and finally ready to explore therapy. I help you articulate what’s at the root of your concerns: What's important to you? What do you value? How is your life currently aligned with those values and what is getting in the way? I help you better understand yourself, your needs, and how to get those needs met. It is important to me that the space we create is compassionate, curious, reflective, and interactive. Common issues that I work on in therapy include life transitions, managing stress/anxiety, building your sense of Self, relationship concerns, and improving communication.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years experience and have the privilege of working with adults from diverse backgrounds. Currently, we live in unprecedented and trying times that can lead to increased stress, burnout, and strain on relationships. I can help you with worry/anxiety, sadness/depression, relationship struggles, parenting, work-home life balance, stress, making career changes, shame, grief, and life transitions. I will help you learn more about yourself, understand better the way you think and feel, and live more consciously so that you can feel more empowered and centered in your choices and life.

Taking a step toward healing, growth, or change can be frightening, and is also an act of courage and self-care. I identify as an Asian American, Pakistani, second-generation immigrant Muslim woman and a social justice-oriented therapist. I offer a warm, compassionate space while presenting my authentic self, hoping to foster your capacity to do the same. I am committed to cultural sensitivity and I attend to issues of identity, power, privilege and culture. I utilize an integrative approach that draws from multicultural/feminist, relational, mind-body based, and cognitive-behavioral therapy to meet your goals and needs.

Everyone has the capacity to reach full potential. When this occurs, one experiences an improved sense of self which creates freedom to make decisions that create and sustain meaningful experience in relationships and work. Life can actually feel like it's starting anew. More often than not, answers to repetitive patterns in unfulfilling relationships and negative feelings about the self can be traced to the past. Once goals have been identified, I work with clients in a supportive and collaborative way so that a constructive and meaningful understanding of one's life, with improved ways of coping, can occur now.

You ask yourself "why did I just say that?" It's hard to stop thinking about how you messed up a conversation, a task, or an assignment. People say "you are too sensitive" when you share how you feel. You don't like how you speak impulsively. Your family and heritage are important to you but there is tension. You think about your past in negative ways and it's hard to focus on the present moment. It's hard to feel relaxed in your body. At times you feel restless and at other times stiff and numb. Feeling balanced is tough.

Do you ever come out a situation and find yourself questioning your emotional reactions? Do you ever find yourself playing mental gymnastics to avoid causing anyone discomfort only to then realize that you're utterly exhausted and have no spoons left for yourself? Maybe you're trying to make sense of your identity, navigate the world as BIPOC/queer/neurodiverse etc. while trying to simultaneously build healthy relationships, set boundaries, process past traumas, and exist in a capitalist society where your productivity is a measure of your validity (spoiler alert it's not; you're valid and your existence is more than enough).

I am pleased to meet you! As a clinician, I believe in working in the strengths based and person centered model. This is your valuable time, and I hope to help guide you through this journey. I have experience with diverse cultural and social backgrounds with depression, anxiety, difficulties with life transitions and trauma.  I aim to help you with your goals to better improve your quality of life. I received my Masters in Social work at Wheelock College. Also, I currently am a Director of Social Services for a nursing facility providing case management, medical social work, and advocating rights for the elderly population.
