He works with Individuals,
Couples

Therapy must be purposeful to improve the quality of life. To improve our relationships, our own psychological and emotional wellbeing. It takes place in an environment that is safe and supportive. It takes place with a therapist who is genuine, sensitive and skillful. When you enter therapy with me I bring all of my education and experience to share with you. I also bring a measure of humility and open mindedness that 38 years of private practice has taught me. I've learned as much from the people I see as, I hope, they have learned from me.

Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

If you are ready to get better, I am here to help you.
Specializing in depression, anxiety and
couples
therapy, I can help you to better understand yourself. Without even being aware of it, many of us recreate the same destructive patterns in life over and over again. Through the process of therapy, these patterns can be broken and a new and happy you can take hold. But you won't feel better without first understanding what makes you do the things you do.

I appreciate very much that you are taking the time to read my page today!

Both professionally and personally, I know that feeling Depressed or Anxious or a combination of both can really effect our lives. Though I work with all ages, I tend to see Teens and Young Adults as well as
Couples

Bryan Russo, LMFT
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, PhD, LMFT
Verified
Too often psychotherapy focuses on causality, pathology and cures. However, rather than being "sick" or 'broken", often we are just lost inside ourselves or relationships. Everyone is a unique person with their own story, experience and perspective. The goal of therapy is to achieve a deeper awareness of where we are, to discover internal meaning for our many experiences, and to experience a life worth living. While working towards that awareness, I also feel it important to teach individuals,
couples
and families the skills needed to cope with the pain and day to day stressors that bring them into therapy.
Allie Levy-Akoka
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Verified
I am privileged to be able to work with individuals,
couples
, and families who come from diverse cultural background.
While talking about your feelings with friends and family may be comforting, that may not completely tackle your emotional needs and complications. Seeing a professional therapist can help to alleviate your emotional distress from difficult situations. My mission is to provide support and space for healing while counseling you and your family in a non-judgmental and safe environment.

Stories. We all have them - stories that we believe about our abilities, our partners, and our past. These stories shape what we unconsciously decide that we are capable of or deserving of. When we experience trauma, we develop unhealthy coping behaviors that support the stories. We think that these behaviors are a part of our personality, but they are not; they are simply survival strategies. And the unhealthy strategies that helped us to survive trauma earlier in life affect our ability to form healthy adult relationships and to meet our goals. But what if the stories are wrong? How do we find our true stories?
