Out-of-network provider offering superbills. Pain without meaning is chaos, so what is that pain and what does it need to tell you? Does something need to be different and you feel overwhelmed? Do you feel stuck in the past, young, unsure of yourself? Does the meaning of life and future feel uncertain and big? Is it all too much and you just need to talk to start?

One of the hardest things I have ever done, was asking for help while in the midst of personal crisis. While on our journey through life, loss and change are inevitable. The most challenging moments, although difficult, are also opportunities for growth and self-examination. I would be honored to be part of your journey.

Some of the main challenges I assist clients in overcoming include: feelings of hopelessness, fears about the future, feelings of distraction from past traumas, anger or shame over behaviors or addictions, challenges of being “stuck” and difficulties managing overwhelming emotions. I have the most experience treating adults with addiction, depression, anxiety, domestic violence, trauma, shame, grief, to name a few.

The body carries the legacy of trauma and attachment dynamics in habits of movement, posture and nervous system regulation that can keep us stuck in the past. Therapeutic engagement doesn't have to be dysregulating and overwhelming. You shouldn't leave a therapy session feeling worse than you did when you showed up. Unfortunately, traditional talk therapies can inadvertently trigger your nervous system into survival mode. If we aren't tracking and recognizing what is happening underneath the words, therapy can feel excruciating, especially if there is a history of trauma at any stage of development.

I AM CURRENTLY ONLY ABLE TO SEE CLIENTS VIA V-TEL. I enjoy working with individuals that recognize that something needs to change and just aren't sure which way to go.

We will take a solution focused approach, strength-based approach to help you become more aware, more loving and capable of self love, and create a fuller, richer life. Clients that see me will find themselves in a safe, non-judgmental space. We are free to explore problems from a variety of angles and approaches.

Greetings, my name is Abram. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, working in the field for approximately 10 years. I have worked with a variety of individuals, and couples over the course of my career. My goal as a therapist, is to work myself out of a job. In other words, I want to help my clients, identify their goals, and then work towards their goals, in a relatively short period of time. In my professional experience, most people come to therapy as a result of relationship discord, or persistent distressing emotions. My goal is to assist my clients in finding relief from distressing, emotion, and enjoy relationships.
