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.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I am systemically trained. I see situations through the lens of family, relationships and community.

I like to cover all the bases, taking a holistic approach to solving an issue. I am open to helping all people reach their goals and potential, being patient in helping clients practice new skills. I can be direct and kind at the same time, helping people to access their innate strengths. I am extensively trained in mediation, divorce resolution, EMDR, and will help engage a couple in talking about the difficult subjects, like money and intimacy.
