My ideal client is anyone looking to make a change in their lives in order to feel better, look better and achieve a meaningful life. I am a integrated wellness therapist that looks at all aspects of your life and history starting with the basic patterns of food, exercise, and sleep which are the pillars of optimal health. I work with teens, couples, adults and older adults both as a coach, cheer leader and motivator. I specialize in working with people who have experienced any sort of trauma particularly childhood trauma. I am certified in EMDR a very specific intervention for processing through traumatic memories.

I meet you where you are. Whether you are feeling sad or happy, I work with you to process the emotion at your pace. Taking a client-centered approach to treatment, I encourage you to lead your progress in therapy. I have performed thousands of hours of therapy with people that were seeking a healthy transformation in their own life and in their relationships (marriage/couples/parent and child). We all experience challenges; I would like to help you attain clarity, support, and the confidence to address and heal from your individual challenges.

I believe that the power of vulnerability is one of our greatest strengths and ultimately can provide us with a deeper sense of self, security, comfort, and more compassionate towards one another. Coming from a strength-based form of doing therapy and providing support to others, I work to provide my clients with a sense of validation and comfort. As a cis male that identifies as Latinx and as a proud member of the LGBTQIA community, I am able to hold the experience of living in many diverse, cross-cultural emotional experiences that we sometimes may not even know how to begin to understand.

The therapeutic process has been found to be challenging but what is harder to live with a less than a good quality of life. My commitment to assist my client’s can make that therapeutic process less intimidating. Through my dedication and the client’s willingness for change together can assist with the struggles of the client's mental health. The main ingredient is enough courage to take the first step and reach out to a professional for guidance through the healing process. There is no greater strength than addressing those things that are keeping someone from their full potential.

Do you believe the events of 2020 and beyond have shaped our current collective experience? I believe so and if you do as well maybe this is a time to start the work around enhancing mood, being less stressed, and improving interpersonal relationships. Therapy can be the first step in identifying goals and taking care of needs that may have been neglected during the pandemic and possibly throughout your life. Are you living your best possible life? If so, maybe there are a few small things that are requiring some minor adjustments and if not lets start on this journey together to the first day to the best days of your life.

I hope to meet you where you are and journey with you as you create your favorite self. Are you wanting to change unhealthy life patterns? Are you stressed or dealing with the effects of anger or anxiety? Maybe life is just really tough right now. Let us sit together and discover new ways of coping based on your strengths and write the story of "you" that you prefer. Your personal story matters and I strive to be aware and considerate of the ways every-day life intersects with who YOU are, and work with you towards life satisfaction.

As a therapist, Dr. Ferri believes in a holistic approach that considers every aspect of your life – from your past experiences to your current circumstances and future aspirations. He understands that each individual's journey is unique, and he tailors his therapeutic techniques to fit your specific needs and goals.

My goal for every one of my clients is peace, freedom and sanity. For over a decade, I have helped clients who suffer from depression and anxiety, relationship strife, self doubt and the deep despair that results from living in a society that worships perfection, productivity, restriction, and rigidity. ​ My passion is working with those who suffer from a history of dieting, disordered eating, food obsession, and body hatred. The treatment I provide is Body Justice-focused, weight neutral, and anti-diet. I am an IFS-trained therapist, our work together will be warm, playful, transformative, grounding, and fun!

Highly sensitive people are my specialty. Engaged mutual conversation is my style. Solution focused problem solving is my process. Helping people with high emotional sensitivity develop improved self-perception, more effective coping skills and increased satisfaction in their relationships is a priority in the work I do. Arriving together at new ways of perceiving people and the world opens up possibilities that weren’t accessible before. Integrating exploration into all areas of a clients’ life help provide a holistic framework of understanding, compassion and intentional growth.

' We don't see things as they are, we see things as we are...' Our early life experiences influence and often determine present day behaviors - some productive and successful, some painful and self-defeating. I help clients gain understanding and insight into how negative patterns develop. Together we uncover the underlying causes of thoughts and behaviors that may no longer be serving them. Then they begin to make changes that will produce real and lasting differences in their lives - which ultimately result in changes in their feelings - and reactions.

Affirmative, interactive, client-centered therapy can help you address depression, anxiety, and destructive behaviors. I serve heterosexual, gay, lesbian, bisexual, queer, trans, non-binary, and polyamorous individuals. I practice individual therapy, relationship counseling, and sex therapy. My experience includes working with substance use issues from a harm reduction approach, regardless of whether my client's goal is abstinence or substance use management. I love to help people address trauma, improve communication, take control of their lives, gain sexual confidence, and get their needs met.

Anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, lasting effects of past trauma, and other sources of upset can be stressful and challenging to handle. Choosing therapy can be an important step in support of relief, healing, and reaching goals. In therapy, problems and challenges can be re-framed as opportunities for improved self-care, reflection, positive action, learning and growth. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, the Gottman Method for Couples, Mindfulness Techniques, current research on habit formation, as well as many other relevant and helpful tools to assist you in reaching your goals.

My aim is to create a caring therapeutic relationship with you that is founded in empathy, trust, and respect. Together we will create a safe and open environment for brave and insightful explorations. I offer collaborative, client-centered therapy that supports the development of personal insights and practical coping skills through curiosity, mindfulness, and compassion.
