Psychotherapy---An Opportunity for Healing, Self-Growth and A Fulfilling Life.

"Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness." Carl Jung

We live our lives in search of happiness, fulfillment, enrichment, and balance through our relationships, families, and jobs and career. Sometimes, some of these areas can become demanding, stressful and even overwhelming. Sometimes, we have past painful memories and experiences that have prevented us from living a more fulfilling, productive or adaptive life. We try to manage the best we can, and seek support from friends, families or communities.

Even with support, we may still have difficulties and challenges dealing with overwhelming feelings, and coping with stresses in our life situations. We may have symptoms of depression, anxiety, anger, and other moods. This is a good time to consider seeking professional help.

How I Can Help?
In our first couple of sessions, we discuss your feelings, symptoms, past history and current situations. This will help me to have an accurate understanding of what you're going through. Together, we talk about your treatment goals and expectations to meet your individual needs, and begin the healing process.

My Approach
To meet your individualized treatment needs, I use an integrated approach of various effective treatment modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic (insight) therapy, and family therapy.

I put special emphasis on respect, empathy, compassion, and non-judgment in our therapeutic relationship. Together, we will work towards the goals of symptom reduction, coping with difficult emotions, building on your personal strengths and resources. And you can live a life with hopes, positive possibilities, balance, and fulfillment.
