I use an
integrative
approach.
Sometimes there are circumstances in life that are overwhelming and are beyond our control. Other times, we are trapped by our own perceptions and projections of the world. My approach is to serve as a guide and help you unravel your perceptions, memories, and beliefs, as well as provide you with some skills to help you cope in your world. Let's look at how you can change the things you can control while increasing your ability to make in-depth change. I address issues with depression, anxiety, divorce, trauma, and racial trauma. I currently work with couples & individuals.

Our work together begins with a recognition that it takes courage to enter therapy and that it is an investment of time as well as resources. Embarking on this process is an important step towards living a fuller, more meaningful life. Whether you are struggling to make sense of your past, present and/or future, I hope to help guide you in gaining greater self-awareness and to achieve your goals. I am a licensed psychologist, and clinical supervisor with an
integrative
approach that combines the latest evidence-based research and depth-oriented relational psychoanalytic theory.
Danielle Sachs
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
I work from a culturally responsive and
integrative
approach.
Sometimes life feels overwhelming! Are you going through a loss or life transition?Are you a parent trying to support your child/teen as they face their own challenges? Are you trying to make sense of life experiences and how they have impacted you? Are you wanting to figure out what it is you need to feel more fulfilled and create change? Sometimes we need a safe space that empowers and encourages us to explore what works and doesn’t work as we navigate daily life. Friends and family aren’t always able to provide this- but finding someone we feel comfortable opening up to can also seem overwhelming.

Christina Pascarzi
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Verified
I use an
integrative
approach with an emphasis on self-compassion and acceptance.
My practice focuses on individual therapy for adults with anxiety and stress-related issues. Over the past year, many people have experienced an increase in stress that has overwhelmed their usual ways of coping. This includes stress related to interpersonal relationships, work or home life, or worsening of previously managed anxiety. If this resonates for you, my goal for you in therapy is to empower you with a better understanding of yourself, provide you with a new skill set to manage stress, and enable you to live a life you value.
Sarah M. Scott
Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, MA, AMFT
Verified
I practice
integrative
therapy, tailored especially to your needs.
I have always been curious about what causes suffering, how humans find meaning, and how humans can heal and create post traumatic growth. Therapy is a good place to begin the process of discovering why we relate the way we do, what makes us tick, what keeps us stuck, and what promotes healing in us. Individuals have worked with me to develop themselves, understand the stress in lives, process difficult relationships in childhood and adulthood, embracing self-compassion, and asserting boundaries. Additionally, I work with couples on conflict resolution, developing intimacy, and navigating the impacts of trauma on relationships.

Emily Chong
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, MFT, LPC
Verified
I practice in a trauma-informed and
integrative
approach, interweaving Western psychological theory and evidence-based methods with Eastern philosophy and practices.
Therapy is a collaborative deep dive into what holds you back, what keeps you stuck, what triggers you, and what excites you. It is an exploration of what it means to be human, to be you, and to be in relation with others. Though people come to me for different reasons, I’ve found that the shared commonality is a feeling of disconnection; disconnection from a sense of purpose, a loved one, career, community or even just from oneself. Our work is about helping you recreate connection in these areas so that you can live your most vibrant life.
Rebecca Siegel
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, RDT, MA
Verified
My approach is practical, holistic, and
integrative
.
I fully believe the capacity to thrive lives in your hands, heart, and imagination. As your therapist, I will work with you to uncover your own inherent wisdom. Together we will create a collaborative environment that supports your wise self in expressing more of itself. With your wise self in the room, we can explore the parts of you that may feel lost or left out. As the conversation unfolds, I will support you to empower yourself to love and celebrate all of you. As your self-love increases, you may come to realize that the painful parts of you are just that: a part of you, and that your life is not defined by these parts.
