I focus on issues related to anxiety, depression, oppression, perfectionism, and the complexity of
trauma

Are you interested in cultivating insight, self-trust, calm, and a sense of being enough? Do you want close relationships that feel supportive, honest and authentic? Do you hope to feel connected with your most authentic self? Do you seek to connect with pleasure, sexuality, intimacy, and eroticism in a way you never have before?

trauma

I am an active psychotherapist - listening, asking questions, exploring new ways to understand your experiences and helping you find new strategies. My approach to therapy is one of warmth, empathy, insight and a focus on goal setting. The goal of therapy is to establish internal clarity, more happiness and an increased sense of success.

Trauma
leaves us feeling broken, damaged, and disconnected from our true selves. You may be fed up with the constant triggers in every day situations, feeling distant from family or friends, or overwhelmed with frustration with that nagging little voice that tells you that you can never be enough. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to enjoy your day to day without the constant mind chatter. You’re ready to find deep intimacy in your relationships without your past getting in the way. Most of all, you’re ready to finally find peace.

I specialize in
trauma and PTSD
.
I believe therapy can provide a safe space for creating a more fulfilled life. There are times where we may experience traumas, feel stuck and emotionally disconnected, and have difficulty coping. My approach to therapy includes a humanistic centered style, where we establish a collaborative and trusting relationship to allow for vulnerability and personal growth to occur. I am committed to providing compassionate and empathetic care to support you in your journey towards self-discovery, where we can explore and identify your strengths, build confidence, and self- esteem.
Ari Max Bachrach

Verified
My approach is grounded in a relational, harm reduction, social justice perspective that recognizes the impact of individual and collective
trauma
, in addition to the belief that who you are is a creative and resourceful response to your life experiences.
My love of psychotherapy is rooted in deep belief of the transformative potential of individuals to heal, grow, and realize their most healthy and happy selves, and in turn to have greater capacity and freedom to change our communities and society. As a nurse practitioner I aim to work with you towards that goal. In much the same way that we are shaped by our early relationships, environment, and experiences, healing too happens in relationship. In an attuned therapeutic relationship, we are able to have different experiences and develop a greater sense of authenticity and connection to ourselves and the world around us.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

I also utilize Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, a somatic approach which addresses the ways attachment injuries and
trauma
live in the body, impact the nervous system, and inform the ways we relate to ourselves, others, and our histories.
I enjoy working with queer & trans folks, immigrants, and/or BIPOC identified adolescents & adults. Those who have chronically found themselves in relationships that don't feel supportive and/or reciprocal & are seeking ways to shift their ways of relating and connecting; and who have felt alone, disconnected, and/or like they don't belong. I am passionate about exploring the ways peoples' multiple, intersecting identities impact their mental health and well-being, and developing strategies for coping with stressors related to experiences of oppression.
Sonia Telle
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, MFT
I strongly believe that the most healing aspect of therapy is directly related to the safe connection with the therapist. Trainings inform the therapy but only feeling safe and seen will provide the ground for deep exploration and emergence of the new... almost like a birthing process. Client based, my style is warm, compassionate, nonetheless, assertive. Experience and various trainings keep supporting the importance of breath, grounded presence and mindfulness in any therapeutic setting and healing/life process. Therefore, those are central to my work. My sessions combines several psychotherapy approaches together with various somatic practices such as bioenergetics, movement, mindfulness &
trauma
work.

Are you struggling with anxiety and
trauma
and turning towards unhealthy coping mechanisms in an attempt to manage your emotions? Now is a trying time for almost everyone, and if you have a
trauma
background what's coming up in the current environment may be reminiscent of the stress, isolation, and fear induced by early childhood experiences. You don't have to handle this alone, and with clinically tested techniques to regulate the mind and body, it's possible to shift from a place of disempowerment to strength.
