Hi, I’m Chamin!
I bring over 25 years of experience to my work with individuals, couples, and groups, helping them move from feeling overwhelmed to truly empowered. My expertise has led to regular media contributions on platforms like The TODAY Show and CBS Sunday Morning, and I am the author of Seeking Soulmate: Ditch the Dating Game and Find Real Connection. I founded Chamin Ajjan Psychotherapy to provide a warm, welcoming, and supportive space where clinical excellence meets compassionate care and a little pop culture when I can throw it in. We are the regional clinic for the National Social Anxiety Center providing evidence-based treatment that upholds the rigorous standards of the organization. I am dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges with a collaboration rooted in deep experience and practical, effective tools.
Our couples or relationship therapy framework is designed for partners seeking to rebuild intimacy, improve communication, and navigate life transitions. Please note: Our outpatient practice does not provide crisis intervention, court-mandated counseling, high-conflict mediation, or active separation/divorce litigation services.
I am a Christian that helps others connect to their emotional and spiritual selves. My degree from Lancaster Bible College and my years of experience as a Christian counselor will help clients improve their relationship with themselves, others, and God.
My philosophy is very Jungian-based. I offer a masculine perspective to help those in learning about how to help relate to themselves better and then offer better relationships with others. My work is centered on the truth that when we see reality we are set free. The matrix keeps you stuck and enslaved. My mission is to help people free themselves so they can connect to their true nature and feel more fulfilled. I use health, nature, sexuality, and spirit to help others.
I'm Magdalena, and I've been doing this work for 14 years — across schools, community
mental health, and private practice. What that span of experience gave me is range: I've
worked with people in serious crisis and people who are simply stuck, and I've learned
that the gap between those two things is smaller than most people think. I trained at
UNC Wilmington and have spent my career working with adults across the full
complexity of what life throws at people — anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, parenting,
major life transitions, and identity. I offer therapy in both English and Polish, and I'm
LGBTQ+-affirming. I accept insurance and offer a sliding scale. My goal isn't to be your
therapist forever — it's to give you what you need so you can get on with your life.
If you've lost someone to suicide, you know that grief doesn't fit neatly into a box, and finding a therapist who truly understands that kind of loss can feel impossible. I've spent my career doing crisis work alongside police departments and mobile crisis units, and I specialize in working with people navigating suicide loss, as well as first responders and fellow mental health professionals who carry more than most people realize. If that sounds like you, you're in the right place.
Therapy should feel both supportive and empowering, and that is exactly what I work to create. I am a licensed clinical social worker who brings a warm, empathetic presence to every session, so that you can explore your experiences without judgment.
Welcome! I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 3 years' experience. My goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to receive care. I provide a compassionate and supportive environment to work with my individuals to develop a treatment plan that optimizes mental health and supports the goals that you are striving for. 🚀 No 🚫 benzodiazepines 🚫 or 🚫Ambien.
