Remove the Obstacles to Growth

What to Expect

We work with individuals from all walks of life: adults, couples, adolescents, children and families in addressing a variety of challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, identity issues, self-esteem, substance abuse, and life transition (i.e. divorce, immigration or illness), family planning, family relationships, and parenting. We are also experienced in doing mental health and substance abuse evaluations for courts and administrative purposes.

Our approach to therapy takes on psychodynamic perspective based on the belief that person must attend to the whole self -mind, body, and environment- to achieve understanding and self-realization. We believe in trusting and professional therapeutic relationship as a base for identifying unconscious conflicts; getting insight, and finally making a change. We encourage the use of your strengths and resilience.

We believe that therapy attends to both “content” and “process”. Content is recognizable- the precise words or issues addressed; process refers to the nature of the therapeutic relationship which conveys the message that therapist cares, offers deep presence, and willingness to search for the answers.

Our goals for your therapy are ambitious: in addition to symptom removal and alleviation of pain, we strive to facilitate personal growth and basic character change.
