Welcome
Life certainly has its ups and downs and I am a firm believer in getting the support that best suits you. Just like getting enough exercise, eating a balanced diet or going to the doctor when you’re sick, participating in therapy is, yet another way we can take care of ourselves. Therapy is for anyone who would like to feel better, experience more fulfillment, have more clarity and grow stronger & wiser. I love what I do and am committed to providing you with a safe, nonjudgmental and nurturing space to discover what you are seeking.
I believe we can all benefit from taking the time to better ourselves, yet this process is different for each client. For some individuals this might mean acknowledging past issues that are keeping you stuck. Or maybe you’ll choose to focus on skill building that will help you face a current challenge. For others it might mean putting strategies in place to reach a new personal or professional goal. Whatever the goal, the result is achieving a more satisfying, healthier life. For my younger clients I incorporate experiential activities to help them learn about regulating their emotions, increasing their coping skills and how to have healthy relationships with themselves and others. I believe these skills are critical to future success and happiness. My work with parents focuses on enhancing the parent-child relationship through the use of positive parenting techniques and strategies that support the child’s social-emotional development.

Testimonials
Mia Wilson is amazing! She is extremely helpful, hospitable, and knowledgeable. She is an amazing listener and never judgmental. One of my favorite attributes about her is you may be taking about a topic with her earlier in the day and hours later she will send several articles pertaining to what you were chatting about. You couldn't ask for a more caring psychotherapist. She is easy to talk to, and makes you feel immediately comfortable. Mia has an incredible ease to her.
Mia's kindness and professionalism speak for themselves. She pulled me back from the brink in my darkest moments. I would highly recommend her expertise.
Mia was exactly the person we needed in our 8-year-old son's life. She is caring and he relates to her easily. Her practices are based a lot on mindfulness and having an awareness of oneself. She gives us strategies that are easy to implement and effective for our son and the whole family.
Mia was recommended to us to help our son gain some “tools” to effectively manage his behavior during school time. Our son is a bright, happy child, but had moments at school where his frustration got the best of him and he was unable to fully participate in regular classroom activities and form positive relationships with his peers and teachers. Throughout his sessions with Mia, she was able to teach our son, and in turn, our family, the tools needed for him to manage his behavior during a stressful school day. Our son LOVES Mia, she has helped him understand the scientific background of how his brain works, what he can do to change how his brain works through simple and continued exercises, and how he can let his best shine through! Mia also gave our family a framework of strategies to help us as parents have less stress, but at the same time letting us know what we could improve on to support our son.
I feel so privileged to work alongside Mia Wilson. She has been a dedicated mentor and coach to me. Mia is knowledgeable in her field and continually seeks new information and updates her skills. She listens with her heart and responds with great intelligence, care and sensitivity; providing a balanced, supportive, holistic mental health foundation for those who work with her.
Mia is an exceptional resource to our valley's early childhood community. She has done amazing work in the early childhood programs and is a huge asset to us. She has expertise in child behavior and development and has excellent ideas on how to support each individual child and family. Mia teaches all of us how to be the best we can be for young children. She is a shining example of excellence. I have been lucky to get to learn from Mia and highly recommend her to childcare providers and families.
Mia has been a wonderful addition to my life. Her ability to understand any situation without judgement has allowed me to be fully candid and open with her. I am thankful for her support!
