Our Services

Our team offers a range of services aimed at promoting personal growth and professional development. Our services include:

Psychotherapy

Do you sometimes wonder if you're stuck in either a recurring relationship pattern that you know you don't like or an unfulfilling job, and whatever you have tried doesn't quite work? We understand that feeling stuck can be overwhelming, which is why we offer psychotherapy services designed to help you break through internal barriers and learn how to think, feel, and behave differently. Our evidence-based therapies, including ISTDP, Control-Mastery, EDT, and P.A.C.T., have been proven to be effective in helping individuals overcome challenges and achieve their goals.

Career Counseling

Are you uncertain about how to navigate the employment marketplace or unsure about what you want to do? We understand that finding the right career path can be daunting. Our career counseling services are designed to help you explore your strengths, identify your values, and develop a clear direction. Our experienced therapists will work with you to create a personalized strategy that makes you feel optimistic about your work life and generates new options or a fresh way of thinking.

Workshops and Trainings

We offer workshops and trainings on a wide range of topics, including Developing Assertiveness, Preventing Burnout, Effective Communication in the Workplace, Couples Communication, Interrupting Procrastination, Handling Difficult People, Breaking Cycle of Emotion-Driven Eating, Goal Setting, Time Management, and more.

Yoga, Publications, and More

As a trained and experienced yoga teacher, we offer yoga classes in a wide variety of settings. We also integrate helpful yoga technique (breathing and gentle movement) where appropriate during psychotherapy, for example, when it would be useful to experience greater calmness while addressing challenging issues. Additionally, we provide case consultation for other psychotherapists practicing the ISTDP method of counseling.
