Progress Wellness

In Boston, Progress Wellness is a psychotherapy practice serving college and graduate students, their parents, and high-achieving adults. It offers tailored individual therapy for people navigating anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, academic or social pressures, and ongoing mental strain. Parent support is available for those helping a college student while managing their own concerns. Therapy sessions use approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Exposure and Response Prevention. The work focuses on small, intentional adjustments rather than trying to change everything at once. The practice is led by therapist Angela Ficken, who has two decades of experience working with high-achieving individuals facing anxiety, OCD, and high expectations.
