Marketa Novosadova Boller, MS, APCC
Associate Professional Clinical Counselor APCC #19978
At Integrative Health Counseling, I specialize in working with young adults and adults who have experienced early adversity or feel stuck in patterns that are difficult to break alone. You may have grown up in a home that lacked stability or support, or life may have led you down paths that felt overwhelming or out of your control.
Perhaps you cope with overwhelming emotions by bingeing on food or take other substance. You might be hiding parts of yourself to avoid judgment.
I also support individuals navigating major life transitions or cultural challenges.
As a first-generation immigrant, I understand what it means to rebuild identity, stability, and belonging in a new environment—without losing yourself."
Immigration & Expat Therapy
As an expat therapist who has lived and traveled abroad for much of my adult life, I understand what it means to leave your roots behind and build a life in a new culture. Adjusting to different value systems, navigating bureaucracy, learning new social norms, and trying to belong — all while maintaining your own sense of self — can be both empowering and overwhelming. These experiences often shape how we see ourselves and how safe we feel in the world.
I support immigrants and expats as they adjust to life in a new country, helping them navigate identity shifts, cultural transitions, and the emotional impact of starting over.
Trauma & Survival Patterns
In my practice, I work well with individuals who have experienced emotional, physical, or psychological abuse or neglect. Early relational trauma can shape protective patterns — such as people-pleasing, emotional shutdown, hyper-independence, or self-criticism — that once served as survival strategies. Over time, however, these patterns can become limiting and continue long after the original threat is gone. Together, we gently explore these patterns with compassion, helping you develop safer and more flexible ways of relating to yourself and others.
Emotional Eating & Substance use
I support clients who struggle with intense or overwhelming emotions and may cope through behaviors such as emotional eating, substance use, or other habits that provide temporary relief but create longer-term consequences.
These behaviors often develop as attempts to manage stress, numb difficult emotions, or regain a sense of control. Over time, however, they can feel compulsive and difficult to regulate.
With the right support, insight, and practical tools, these patterns can be understood and gradually reshaped.
Depression & Anxiety
Many of the people I work with experience symptoms of anxiety or depression. These experiences often develop over time. Depression can emerge when we disconnect from our needs, carry unresolved experiences from the past, or feel chronically overwhelmed or unsupported. Anxiety often grows from fear — of loss, rejection, failure, or uncertainty — and can keep the nervous system in a constant state of alert.
We cope in the best ways we know how. Sometimes those coping strategies provide temporary relief but eventually become unhelpful, affecting our health, relationships, and overall quality of life.
While I am trained to recognize and treat mental health conditions, I tend to focus less on labels and more on understanding your story. Together, we make sense of your emotional experiences in a way that feels meaningful, grounded, and empowering.
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, unhealthy?
