You may have landed on this professional profile because you are taking stock of your life and realize that the life you have is not the one you envisioned for yourself. Whether you are bored or in a lot of pain, you may be seeking growth and change, possibly a sense of aliveness. Counseling can be a safe, nurturing setting to slow down and listen to your soul and your body. As you become aware of yourself, you begin to understand how you got to where you are, why you do what you do, and what new paths are possible to you. As a trained therapist from a relational-psychodynamic perspective, I see therapy as a collaborative process.

Pathway to Peace Psychotherapy, PLLC has EVENING and WEEKEND appointments available both in office and telehealth! My experience includes working with adults and teens to work through trauma, establish recovery, help develop coping skills, resiliency, and balance in their lives. I use evidence-based CBT, DBT, IFS and EMDR techniques which accelerate the brain's response to learning how to change negative beliefs to positive beliefs.

*****Hablo Español, aceptando nuevos clientes **** Feeling like your life is missing something,  like you're going in circles,  or frustrated because you don't know what to do next? Do you often criticize yourself,  or expect yourself to “just get over it?” Do you sometimes feel like you want to scream? Let me tell you, I too, have lived through uncertain, challenging times and second-guessed myself, so let's talk!

My name is Imran Kirkland El and I’ve been an advocate in the field for over 15 years. I’m determined to hold a decolonized healing space for individuals and communities who are seeking support as they navigate the complexities of their inner world and external experiences. My passion is to serve QTBIPOC individuals and families facing unique challenges related to identity, discrimination, and systemic oppression. I work with adolescents, adults, families and couples. The focus of therapy will include: healing from past traumas, cultivating Self-Love, building resilience, skills training and establishing a sense of community.

I am truly sorry for any pain you may be feeling. As a compassionate and caring therapist, I understand the deep hurt and confusion that life can bring. My empathetic approach is designed to provide a safe and supportive space where you can heal and center yourself. I specialize in providing treatment for relationship problems, dating, divorce, loneliness, depression, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma, emotional overwhelm, being overweight, and coping with fear and avoidance. I also aid in healing the overwhelm and uncertainty of gaslighting or emotional abuse inflicted by narcissistic, domineering or controlling others.

If you are struggling with low self esteem, anxiety or depression, substance abuse or addiction and unable to cope with everyday life issues, I have the skills and experience to help you learn and grow exponentially. My clients are those who struggle in relationships, find themselves isolating, have trouble at work, legal issues, gambling, codependency, and even with life in general. You may benefit from learning how to communicate more effectively, being more authentic and genuine, building a solid support system, doing things you enjoy again and learning how to ask for help. Take a step and find your HAPPINESS!

My clients gain long lasting benefits from solution focus, DBT, and actualization principles, purposed to renew perspective, manage, behavior, and heighten cognition. We have 2,000 thoughts per day, and each one is capable of changing our circumstances for the better. Why wait? Individuals "want to feel better now, not some time in the distant future." Tap into your natural resources for dynamic change. Use this opportunity to forge a new path, establish a new partnership, and change the environment to meet your needs.

The understanding of our the most authentic aspects of ourselves is at the core of successful psychotherapy. I believe that much of what disrupts us takes place at a level that we cannot access. A secure and non-judgmental relationship between the therapist and the patient in the present moment offers powerful opportunities for such growth to take place. Uncovering how the past has impacted the present is central to successful therapy. Being in private practice, my schedule is flexible and allows me to schedule patients in the morning, evening, and possibly the weekends.

You sit on your bed – heart pounding, face flushed, muscles tensed – still seething after the fight you just had with your partner. “This is it,” you tell yourself. “I can’t take anymore.” The arguments are becoming more frequent and hostile by the day. You remember when you loved being together. You used to look on with pity and bemusement at those married couples who always seemed to be in a state of continual conflict. But now you’re one of those couples. It’s painful and embarrassing to realize how fractured this once seemingly-unbreakable bond has become. You know that something has to change, but you just do not know how.

Focusing on peak performance and maximizing functioning leads to happiness, feeling content, and reduced negative self-impressions. Regardless of whether your performing in athletics, the arts, medicine, or human interaction, it is important to recognize both what is working to optimize performance (building consistency) and what is holding you back (mitigating challenges and overcoming difficulties). Focusing on the core competencies of self-awareness (knowing what is going on in your mind and performance) and self-management (how to take control of your true potential through mindset, behavior, and engagement) goals are realized.
