A Place to Slow Down and Find Yourself Again
Thoughtful, collaborative therapy for people who carry a lot and want to feel more grounded and authentic.
IF YOU’RE HERE, YOU’VE PROBABLY BEEN THINKING ABOUT THERAPY FOR A WHILE

I am a licensed clinical social worker offering therapy for adults who are struggling with anxiety, uncertainty, or a sense of disconnection. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in patterns they can’t fully explain. They may find themselves repeating the same emotional responses or caught in relationships that feel unsatisfying or confusing.
My work is grounded in the belief that symptoms are meaningful. Anxiety, perfectionism, emotional paralysis—these are not just problems to be managed but expressions of something deeper, often rooted in earlier experience or unconscious conflict. In therapy, we create the conditions for those patterns to reveal themselves, so they can be understood and worked through, not just pushed aside.
I offer a space where your thoughts, dreams, and frustrations can be explored freely and seriously. This allows for more lasting change. As we begin to uncover what has remained hidden, many people find that life opens up in new and unexpected ways. The goal is not to become someone else, but to make more sense of who you already are and to find new ways of living that feel more authentic.

Priyanka Parikh is a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience supporting adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, insomnia, and major life transitions. Her clinical foundation was shaped within the Veterans Affairs system, where she worked across primary care mental health, PTSD treatment, residential programs, and integrated medical settings.
Her therapeutic style is collaborative, steady, and clear. Dr. Parikh draws from evidence-based approaches including CBT, CPT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness-based interventions, offering care that is structured enough to support meaningful change while remaining flexible and responsive to each client.
At Branch Lane, Parikh provides a space where clients feel understood and supported as they work toward greater clarity, resilience, and balance. She is deeply committed to culturally responsive, inclusive care and values the full context of each client’s experiences, identities, and story.

Robin Chilton is a Licensed Master Social Worker who specializes in supporting women through life transitions, motherhood, and the emotional complexities that often accompany change. She works with individuals experiencing anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, infertility, loss, perinatal and postpartum mood disorders, and the challenges of parenting across stages of life.
Her clinical approach is collaborative, attuned, and grounded in psychodynamic and relational frameworks, while integrating cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing when helpful. Robin views symptoms not simply as problems to fix, but as meaningful signals that invite careful listening and understanding. She strives to create a reflective, safe space where clients can explore their emotional patterns and develop insight.
Robin’s work is informed by extensive experience in early childhood mental health, trauma-informed care, and family systems. She has served as a lead consultant with New York City child welfare services, providing clinical consultation, training, and case guidance. She has also worked in schools and therapeutic programs supporting children, parents, and families navigating grief, behavioral challenges, and stress from developmental and environmental pressures.

CBT helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another and offers practical tools for responding to stress, anxiety, and low mood. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns and develop strategies that support clarity, resilience, and everyday wellbeing.

Psychoanalysis explores the subtle, often unseen forces that shape how you experience yourself and your relationships. Through careful attention and curiosity, it opens space for deeper insight and lasting change that unfolds both in and beyond the therapy room.
Trauma-informed therapy offers a steady, supportive space to understand how past experiences continue to affect your inner world. At a pace that feels manageable, we work toward restoring safety, meaning, and a greater sense of connection within yourself.
Your story matters, and you don’t have to carry it alone. I work collaboratively with clients to notice patterns, clarify what matters, and make sense of the experiences that have shaped them. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or a period of transition, Branch Lane is here to support you in building a life that feels more grounded and your own.

Begin with a brief consultation to share what’s been bringing you to therapy, ask questions, and get a feel for how we work. This conversation is a chance to be heard without judgment and to see whether Branch Lane feels like the right fit for you.

Once you decide to move forward, you’ll receive a short set of intake forms to help us understand your background, current concerns, and what you’re hoping for from therapy. This information allows us to approach your first session with care and intention.

Whether you meet with us online or in person, therapy starts by creating a supportive, collaborative space. Together, we work to understand what’s been contributing to your difficulties and develop an approach that supports clarity, steadiness, and meaningful change over time.
