Emilé Baker, LICSW

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in private practice, specializing in supporting young adults and parents coping with food allergy anxiety, anaphylaxis-related trauma, and grief. I integrate relational psychotherapy with mindfulness based cognitive behavioral, ACT and dialectical behavior therapy skills to help clients build coping strategies, confidence, and resilience. I see patients in person in Wellesley, MA and via Telehealth in Massachusetts, Maine and Connecticut, and I also facilitate a low-cost, Telehealth, CBT-based psychotherapy group for caregivers managing food allergies that runs several times a year. In addition to my clinical work, I am a full-time professor at Simmons University School of Social Work and serve on the board of the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, New England Chapter as a board member and Clerk.

Jenna Tso, LCSW

Food allergies have been part of my story from the start—I was born with them. This lived experience deeply informs my practice as I support teens, adults, and parents on their own food allergy journeys. I offer a space where the unique emotional weight of this life is truly understood. Whether you're raising a child with allergies or navigating them yourself as an adult, I can help you process the anxiety, advocate with confidence, and reclaim a sense of calm and normalcy.
