Family Therapy in Rochester, NH

Does your child dance to the beat of a different drum? Maybe you’ve watched them struggle to “find their people,” gain acceptance, and hit their stride. They’re sensitive, easily overwhelmed, and anxious. If you’ve been at this for a while, they may already have a diagnosis of ADHD, Autism, PDA, or DMDD. You try so hard to understand your child, but you’re hitting a wall and feeling frustrated. You love them with all of your heart, but parenting feels so complicated. Is it your fault? Are you missing something? You wish you knew so that you could make things better.

Hello! If you are reading this and looking for help you are right where you need to be :) I like to think of myself as an "UNshrink" . I believe in helping to de-pathologize you and whatever it is that you are struggling w, and helping you to experience your self, situation, and LIFE in a whole new way. I'm usually a good fit for ppl that aren't into traditional "therapy" for whatever reason: anxiety, skepticism, bad or unsuccessful past experiences, if you think you, your family, everything is/are beyond hope, or if you are interested in something completely "outside the box", bc that is me.

Life can often be challenging. I am here to help those who are at a point in their life where something has to change and the willingness to make that change, whatever that might look like, is now present. Whether the problem is life status, relationship or family conflict, oppositional behaviors or substance abuse/addiction, change is possible. Please email me for fastest response.

Are you or someone you know struggling with managing emotions-anxiety or depression, are there sexual concerns for yourself or in your relationship, or are you struggling with adjustments in your life, maybe starting a family or parenting children who struggle with behaviors? If so I would love to hear from you in order to see if I am a good fit to help. I love working with all types of family systems, currently with couples or adult individuals. I believe that part of moving forward towards change is supporting my clients in finding the solutions within themselves.

Our life can leave residual effects, based on experiences, leaving us feeling wounded, unheard and alienated from others and ourselves. Therapy is a private space to explore these effects and develop skills to move toward connection and fulfilment in our life. I am motivated by being witness to transformation and recovery. I have had the privilege of being part of someone’s journey of exploring experiences which have created distress in their life. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), with 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I graduated from Boise State University with a Masters of Social Work.

Hello and thank you for looking at my page. Some say the hardest thing to do is what you are doing right now by starting the process for making change. My name is Wendy Allen and I am a therapist in the Rochester area that focuses on bringing awareness to how our thoughts lead to assumptions and beliefs which results in emotions and behaviors.

Do you long for greater fulfillment in your personal relationships or at work? Are you considering a career change? Do you want to apply your professional skills and strengths in more rewarding and competitive ways?  The focus of my counseling is on the Transitions - planned and unplanned, that we encounter in life. These may involve life changes, education, career, or health matters, among other things. I can help you identify and build on your strengths and resilience for greater success and happiness as you move forward in your relationships.

Let me start off by saying that I am not a big fan of this picture. This being said, therapy is not magic, but people helping clients to regain perspective so they can either tap into their strengths again, or learn new skills to enhance their lives. I have been able to support people in accomplishing this for quite a long time now and fully believe my work is simply changing things up enough so you can see your strength and then put it back into action

Do you hope for an open-minded and progressive therapist? Do you have lifestyle considerations that you hope will be embraced and understood? Do you wish to target and resolve past traumas? I am experienced in treating PTSD and complex trauma using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I meet clients where they're at and make goals that fit their current needs. I am LGBTQIA+, kink- and polyamory-aware, and neurodivergent-affirming. I am full but adding to a wait list or referring to other MMW clinicians.

Most people who visit a therapist know that there is something they want to change, but they may not know how. Sometimes feelings of anxiety or depression, problems with relationships, challenges at work, or other social difficulties are difficult to understand and resolve without help. In therapy, my goal is to help you foster greater self-understanding and develop strategies to live a more fulfilling life.
