About

I have extensive experience of over 10 years in treating individuals, couples, children and families. I work in conjunction with my clients to treat presenting symptoms and address the roots of their issues, by using tools for growth and self-improvement, while providing a safe, warm and supportive environment. I am competent in a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, gender, LGBT, addictions, trauma, relationships, cultural issues, parenting, grief, addiction and aging (among many others). I believe in empowering my clients through a strength based approach, so they can improve their quality of life in all aspects. I am also bilingual in Armenian language skills.
My Treatment orientations include :
Existential, Family / Marital, Family Systems, Gestalt, Humanistic, Interpersonal, Psychodynamic and Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)
Though some of my achievements can be seen in certificates and diplomas, I feel that my highest value of achievements have been earned through my work overseas. I strongly believe that as clinicians, we carry a moral responsibility to contribute to the greater wellbeing of those who seek support. Each culture and tradition, warrants a respectable and honest approach in attaining a high quality of life. I enjoy partaking in my hobbies and maintaining my own self care, as it reflects in my abilities to be a better therapist, while also modeling an effective copping skill. I am often learning from my clients, and consistently inspired by the resilience of human beings.
