Hi! This is Ajith Abraham. Are you struggling with mental health issues, feeling stressed, overwhelmed with emotions? Taking the first step can be the hardest and most challenging. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression or any of the other mental health diagnoses, there is hope. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength. I work with clients ages 13 and above and provide treatment for mood disorders such as Depression and Bipolar; Anxiety disorder such as Generalized anxiety, Social anxiety, Panic disorder, Obsessive-compulsive disorder, and phobias; Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); Psychotic disorders including schizophrenia, brief psychotic disorder. I am passionate about building relationships and empowering my clients to be active participants in their treatment plans and improving quality of life. Let me help you in this mental health journey.

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

You can expect a comprehensive mental health evaluation to collect pertinent information about history and current symptoms, including screening questionnaires, or standardized instruments. It is also about building trust and rapport and establishing a partnership to work collaboratively, provide tailored treatment plans that encompass evidence-based treatment.

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

I believe that it is important to provide a non-judgmental approach to every client; taking the time to understand the person, listen deeply to what the client is experiencing and be a partner in their journey to better mental health.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with ages 13 and above, who are interested in not just medications but wants to incorporate an integrative holistic approach to treatment.

My treatment methods

Integrative

I use client-centered, integrative approach looking at the root cause of the mental health issue including functional medicine testing which can help identify genetic markers, gut microbiome imbalances, nutritional deficiencies that contributes to psychiatric issues. Medications can be part of the puzzle, but addressing the root cause will eliminate or minimize the medication side effects and be more effective.
