Maria Millett, LCSW
Introduction
You might be a teen or young adult who is self-aware, thoughtful, and tired of feeling stuck. Maybe you're navigating a life transition, or experience anxiety, social challenges, or old patterns that no longer serve you. It is normal to experience overthinking, people-pleasing, and second-guessing yourself. Yet you don't want to stay in that space. You want clarity, peace, and the freedom to be yourself—without guilt. Together, we work not just on coping tools, but real transformation—whether that’s learning how to regulate your nervous system, heal inner wounds, or finally let go of the pressure to be “perfect.” I specialize in working with neurodivergent teens and young adults. Mindfulness grounds our work, helping us gently notice what’s beneath the surface—without judgment. I integrate CBT, DBT, nervous system support, and relationship tools, guided by what feels most helpful for you. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and paced to fit your needs. Whether you're untangling past wounds, reconnecting with yourself, or learning to set boundaries, I’ll walk alongside you as you grow into the life that feels most like yours. If you’re seeking a therapist who can sit with the hard stuff while also making space for your resilience, humor, and humanity—you’re in the right place.
