We provide psychological services to high functioning clients with no current/history of SI/SA/SIB/HI/HA in our practice. We offer our sessions to adult clients (21+). Our goal is to collaboratively identify effective coping skills to better manage symptomology and consciously work on various unconscious patterns. Change is a process and we gladly help our clients to initiate such change with an understanding everyone’s journey is different. We provide services in English and Farsi.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session, we usually complete a detailed Intake Screening collaboratively with our clients. This provide the opportunity to identify areas which we need to focus on, prioritize them accordingly and set realistic goals. Furthermore, we complete a treatment plan during our first session, based on the information provided, which is going to serve as the roadmap in the journey ahead. Knowing our mutual goals creates a point of reference and also assist in having a clear picture in relation to what we are going to expect mutually and goals we are going to achieve.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Based on years in practice, we are sensitive to various important factors such cultural diversity and cultural values which contribute significantly to each and all sessions. We also assess our clients routinely to monitor their progress, share such finding with them and modify approaches if needed in order for our clients to achieve goals discussed in their treatment plans.
