“Everyone has their own unique experiences and so the challenges that each person presents with is specific. Sometimes we might find it challenging to make progress with problems that arise in the present because we become reliant on our defence mechanisms that reinforce our pain. I believe when we truly feel supported and cared for, we become better equipped to explore ourselves, our inner experiences (emotions, thoughts and behaviours) and gain a clearer understanding of our individual needs and what is important.” - Sha Mazaheri

Are you in constant conflict with your partner? Do you find yourself disconnecting from each other over time? Relationship issues like conflicts are an integral part of a relationship. However, there is a good chance that the toxicity in the relationship has deeply wounded both. The needs of each other are ignored and arguments become less on the important issues as both are too emotionally detached to care anymore.

I provide person-centered, evidence-based psychological treatments and counselling to clients from all walks of life. Clients often request short to medium term interventions to lessen the effects of their psychological trauma or recent and/or old events on their lives. Clients attend sessions with clinical diagnoses or their current experiences of moderate to severe level of symptoms leading to their interest in receiving assessments for formal diagnoses. Specific needs and goals of therapy are usually discussed in the first session during intake assessment. I can also provide sessions in Korean.

As a therapist, I help people to find healing for themselves and their relationships. I work with people who struggle with trauma, depression, relationships, self-worth, and identity. When meeting with my clients, I look at the cultural context — societal, religious, and family — and seek to understand how culture shapes the personal story of each individual. I then attend to how you hold yourself, your story, beliefs, and sufferings in your mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to help you to become who you are truly meant to be, to love and be loved, and restore your sense of self, sense of worth, freedom, fulfilment, and joy.
