LP, 4 years of experience
Good Day! I am Sean Ferri, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. Have you been feeling down, anxious, or alone? Does life seem unbearable at times or that you don't know which end is up? I would love to guide you on a journey of self-discovery and help you implement sustainable changes in your life to get you feeling back in control and feeling like yourself again. As a therapist, I believe in a holistic approach that considers every aspect of your life – from your past experiences to your current circumstances and future aspirations. I understand that each individual's journey is unique, and I tailor my therapeutic techniques to fit your specific needs and goals.
During our first session, we will spend some time getting to know one another and assessing the reason(s) you are seeking support. We will identify goals and determine the most appropriate next steps whether it be continuing therapy or referral to a more appropriate clinician.
For the past 3 years, I have been providing counseling and clinic management at the LGBTQ Community Center of the Desert. Through this work. I have honed my skills in providing affirmative, effective, and culturally competent counseling to the LGBTQ+ community and our allies. My areas of focus have been aging within this community, family support, trauma, gender identity, and the intersectionality of neuro-divergency and gender and sexuality. In addition, I have extensive experience in grief counseling, caretaker support, and couples.
My ideal client is someone who feels a deep desire for change but isn’t quite sure how to begin. They may feel stuck in old patterns or uncertain about the next steps, yet they carry a sense of hope and openness to growth. This client is willing to be curious, explore their emotions, and engage in the therapeutic process with honesty, even when it feels challenging. What they need most is a supportive, compassionate space where they can gain clarity, build confidence, and discover practical tools to move forward toward the life they truly want.
I use a variety of modalities and interventions to best fit the needs and goals of my clients. These methods include but are not limited to CBT, DBT, EFT, EFIT, IPSRT, Solutions-Focused, Inner Child Work, IFS, Client-Centered.
