Karen Chinca, LICSW, CEDS-S (She/Her)
Founder/Owner and Psychotherapist
Licensed in MA, RI, CT, NY and FL
-
As the owner and lead therapist at Nourished Minds: Counseling + Wellness, I bring nearly two decades of experience as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Certified Eating Disorders Specialist-Supervisor (CEDS-S).
I am licensed to practice in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and Florida.
I am an active member of the National Association of Social Workers, the Academy of Cognitive Therapy, the International OCD Foundation, the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals, and the Multi-Service Eating Disorders Association (MEDA).
I proudly endorse and promote a Health at Every Size (HAES) approach.
-
I hold a Master of Social Work from Boston College and a Master of Business Administration in Healthcare Management from Boston University.
I have a certificate in The Assessment and Treatment of Psychological Trauma from Boston University, am a Certified Diplomate of the Academy of Cognitive Therapy, and have completed my Internal Family Systems (IFS) level 1 training through the IFS Institute.
My specialized training also includes graduating from the International OCD Foundation’s Behavior Therapy Training Institute and becoming a Certified Eating Disorders Specialist-Supervisor through The International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals (IAEDP).
-
My approach is collaborative, relational, and grounded in evidence-based treatment. I draw from CBT, ACT, ERP, DBT, and mindfulness. My style is warm, interactive, and non-judgmental, and I bring curiosity and humor into my sessions. I want therapy to feel like a supportive relationship where people feel safe, understood, and able to show up as their full selves.
I specialize in treating eating disorders, OCD, and trauma, with a particular focus on intergenerational trauma. A core area of my work, and one where I have significant experience, is supporting individuals navigating co-occurring OCD and eating disorders, and I tailor my treatment to address the ways these conditions often intersect.
I practice from a Health at Every Size and non-diet framework, and I’m deeply committed to helping clients build a more compassionate and trusting relationship with food, movement, and their bodies.
In my work with OCD, I support clients in developing a clear understanding of OCD and its underlying cycles, while engaging in values-based exposure work. My goal is to help individuals move toward a more meaningful, aligned life, one with less avoidance, greater clarity, and increased psychological flexibility.
Social justice is central to my work, and I think about care through the lens of systems, power, identity, and access. My goal is to create a space where people feel respected, empowered, and genuinely seen.
-
I work with adults and older adults navigating eating disorders, OCD, anxiety, trauma, identity concerns, and life transitions. Much of my work centers on both firsthand and intergenerational trauma, which has become a core specialty of mine.
Earlier in my career, I worked extensively with individuals from Central and South America. That experience shaped my understanding of cultural identity, migration stress, and the unique challenges many immigrants face. It also strengthened my love for working with adults from other countries and deepened my commitment to culturally grounded care.
I have a strong passion for working with individuals from marginalized and oppressed communities, including immigrants, first-generation adults, and people who have felt unseen or misunderstood in traditional mental health settings.
I also enjoy working with parents and families around communication challenges. As a parent of two grown kids, I bring both professional and personal experience to these conversations.
-
I’m a first-generation daughter of immigrants, and English wasn’t my first language. Growing up between cultures shaped how I understand people, identity, and belonging, and how I move through the world. That experience continues to inform the way I show up in my work and the space I try to create for others.
Outside of my clinical work, I’m usually reading a gripping thriller or a good memoir, trying new restaurants, or planning my next trip. I love learning new languages and continuing to practice the ones I already speak, exploring new places, and getting to know different cultures; travel has always been grounding and energizing for me. In the summer, you can often find me sitting or walking along the beach on the North Shore, which is truly my happy place.
I’m also an animal lover. When I’m working from home, you’ll often see my very sweet old cat, Smokey, curled up on my lap or wandering across the screen.
Shikha Advani, MS, MSW, LCSW, IEDS, EDCS (She/Her)
Associate Psychotherapist
Licensed in MA
-
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker at Nourished Minds Counseling + Wellness, specializing in supporting marginalized adults navigating eating disorders, trauma, grief, identity exploration, anxiety, and dissociative disorders. I hold certifications as an Inclusive Eating Disorder Specialist (IEDS) and Eating Disorder Certified Specialist (EDCS).
-
I received my Master’s in Clinical Nutrition from Boston University and my Master’s in Social Work from Simmons University, and I am currently pursuing my PhD in Social Work at the University of Denver. My research focuses on the intersections of eating disorders, decolonization, weight stigma, and grief.
My clinical background includes experience across multiple levels of eating disorder treatment, including residential, PHP, and IOP settings. Over the years, I have worked in a variety of roles within eating disorder care, including as a recovery coach, clinical case manager, group facilitator, and therapist, which has shaped my understanding of recovery as relational and individualized.
In addition to individual therapy, I have created and facilitated specialized groups focused on grief, intersectionality, LGBTQIA2S+ experiences, body image, and healing for BIPOC individuals and people in larger bodies.
-
I integrate trauma-informed, relational, and decolonial frameworks into my work with clients. My approach draws from Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), while centering anti-oppression, body liberation, and an understanding of how systemic and historical factors influence eating disorders, trauma, and identity.
I view therapy as a collaborative process rooted in curiosity and authenticity. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe exploring difficult emotions, unpacking harmful narratives, and reconnecting with themselves outside of shame and societal expectations. I deeply value honoring each client’s lived experience while recognizing the broader cultural and systemic contexts that shape healing.
-
As a South Asian clinician, I particularly enjoy working with folks of color navigating racial trauma, cultural identity, intergenerational dynamics, and racial identity development. I also value working with LGBTQIA2S+ clients, individuals in larger bodies, and disabled folks.
I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients can show up fully as themselves and feel supported in moving toward healing and liberation.
-
Alongside my clinical work and research, I am also an adjunct instructor for future social workers. I am passionate about bridging research, advocacy, teaching, and clinical practice in ways that challenge harmful systems and expand what healing can look like for marginalized communities.
I also hold lived experience with complex PTSD, which deeply informs the compassion, authenticity, and relational depth I bring into therapy. I understand how healing is often nonlinear and shaped by both personal experiences and broader systemic contexts. I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported in exploring their stories without judgment.
Outside of therapy and research, I enjoy reading, spending time in community, and being a cat parent to Jellybean and Miso, who regularly remind me about the importance of rest, comfort, and slowing down.

I am a Mental Health Counselor who believes that healing and growth happen through strong, trusting relationships. I am also a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC).
-
I earned my Master of Education in Counseling and Sport Psychology from Boston University and completed my clinical training at Groton School, a high-academic boarding school.
-
I prioritize creating a space that feels warm, genuine, and curious -- a place where clients can feel supported enough to explore the parts of themselves they may have learned to hide, criticize, or avoid. My approach is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), while also drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). In practice, I focus on helping clients build psychological flexibility so they can respond to life with more intention, self-compassion, and connection to what matters most to them. I believe that mental health and performance are deeply connected, and am passionate about helping clients build a more sustainable identity beyond achievement.
-
I work with adolescents and adults navigating a range of concerns, including anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, depression, trauma, and perfectionism. As a former athlete and coach, I am especially drawn to working with athletes and high-achieving individuals who often experience their self-worth as closely tied to performance. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I value creating an affirming, nonjudgmental space for clients exploring gender, sexuality, relationships, and identity.
-
Outside of the therapy room, I can be found looking for my next great read, drinking a tasty latte, building a fun LEGO set, or spending time outdoors.

I am a lesbian identifying Licensed Certified Social Worker at Nourished Minds Counseling + Wellness. I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, & young adults navigating anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, trauma, grief, and identity exploration.
-
I received my Bachelor’s in Psychology from St. Edward’s University and my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Denver.
My clinical background includes experience across mental health treatment levels of care, including residential, PHP, IOP, and outpatient settings. I have worked as an Exposure Coach, case manager, group facilitator, parent coach, and therapist in anxiety and OCD care, which has shaped my understanding of how to provide surround sound support to the clients and families that I work with.
In addition to individual therapy, I have created and facilitated specialized groups for clients focused on social anxiety, mindfulness, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, intersectionality, and LGBTQIA2S+ experiences.
-
My approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy- along with specialized tools like SPACE and Mindfulness.
I see therapy as a collaborative, creative partnership fueled by curiosity and authenticity. I focus on building a soft place to land… a space where someone can sit with uncomfortable emotions and unpack the narratives that no longer serve them. I’m here to help you bridge the gap between where my clients are now and the value-driven life they want to lead. When working with younger kids with anxiety and OCD, I tailor the content to integrate their interests. I like to gamify exposures, use imagery, draw, and use analogies to support them in understanding how and why anxiety and/ or OCD does what it does.
-
I am passionate about supporting individuals navigating anxiety and OCD find a sense of freedom, with a particular focus on LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC children, adolescents, and young adults. My aim is to create a therapeutic space where clients can feel supported and brave when bossing back their anxiety and/ or OCD. I also work with individuals through disordered eating, trauma, grief, and identity exploration.
Beyond direct clinical work, I also value community-building. By partnering with other clinicians, I’ve helped create dedicated affinity spaces where mental health professionals can find connections. These have included BIPOC Closed Spaces, LGBTQ+ Closed Spaces, and Differently-Abled Closed Spaces, among others. These spaces served as a space for practitioners to connect and recharge in a supportive, shared-identity environment.
-
I am a yoga practitioner and a 200 YTT certified instructor. I enjoy incorporating mindful movement and breathing into our sessions as a way to recenter ourselves, observe our thoughts, and come back to our bodies. My clinical perspective is also enriched by my advocacy for DEI and environmental justice, centering the belief that personal healing and collective liberation go hand-in-hand. Having navigated my own journey with PTSD and autoimmunity, I hold a deep respect for the complexities of the healing process. I strive to honor the lived experiences of my clients with the same nuance and care I apply to my own.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy hosting dinners with friends, taking care of plants, and hanging out with Cicada and Obsidian- my two cutie-patootie cats who will most likely make an appearance in our therapy sessions.

I earned my Master’s of Science in Counseling Psychology from Northeastern University with a focus on feminist therapies. The feminist ecological approach I gained from my graduate training is central to my clinical work. By deepening our understanding of the systems, structures, and environments that have shaped us, I believe we can access deeper self-understanding and self-compassion. Before completing graduate school, I worked as a research coordinator on studies examining the neurological underpinnings of OCD and health anxiety in young women. My research experience ignited my passion for providing clinical care, and I am grateful to now offer evidence-based treatment for complex and often misunderstood mental health concerns.Before joining Nourished Minds, I worked at The Renfrew Center of Massachusetts.
