Greek Therapists in Ojai, CA

My skills and experience have allowed me to deal with various diverse cultures who are reluctant to seek treatment due to stigma. Having been raised as Armenian and Greek, I have experienced the multicultural and societal pressures firsthand. In the face of a person experiencing a challenging life event , even the most competent person may need extra support or guidance. Everyone has problems and there is no shame in seeking help. It is my goal to create a safe Christ Centered environment for you to navigate through issues of acculturation, emotional scars from the past that prevents you from pursuing Gods purposes.

The most important thing in working together is building the foundation of a trusting relationship, where you can feel safe to talk openly. You know your life better than anyone else does. Therefore, we will hold great respect for your self-wisdom. Together with my professional knowledge and experience, we can work to help you discover how to live life in a way that is most fitting for you. NOTE: a professional relationship will not be formed until we both agree to do so, and only during/after an initial meeting. Any prior contact is for informational purposes only.

Hello there! I am here to walk alongside you as you navigate your journey toward healing. Life can be full of unexpected challenges, especially when emotions and stressors come into play, leaving us feeling a bit overwelled and lost. But remember, you are not on this journey alone.

Is fear blocking you from moving forward with your dreams and preventing you from reaching your full potential? Do you keep repeating the same patterns because of the shadows created by your past traumas? Does your life seem unmanageable and you do not know who to turn to?

Are you finding yourself struggling with anxiety, irritability or overwhelming stress? You may be noticing that it is difficult for you to move forward following a distressing life experience and overwhelming emotions are keeping you from functioning at your highest potential. Sometimes past experiences, such as bullying or childhood abuse, can linger in the background manifesting as performance anxiety, panic attacks, overwhelming anger or frustration.

If you are suffering from repeated patterns that are negatively impacting your life and desire freedom and space to heal and transform these patterns, I can help. I work with individuals, couples, groups and families who are overwhelmed by anxiety, suffering from depression, in a life transition, managing grief, having existential distress, and/or looking for deeper meaning and a stronger sense of Self. Often times being seen and understood by a nonjudgmental, compassionate therapist is a key factor in healing. The process is rich and ultimately empowering.

It's like opening the door to a room in your heart that you've kept locked away. It's time to let some light in and start the process of healing and growth.

Are you ready to address areas of your life where you feel stuck, unfulfilled or are struggling? Therapy is a great start. Whatever is calling you to therapy - relationships, anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, the therapeutic space allows you to deal with challenges, while being gently guided to help you understand and process what you are feeling, current blocks and ways to create the changes you want.

Do you need support finding your life’s purpose? Do you feel overwhelmed? Do you find it difficult to feel pain and face your shadows?

While increasing awareness we derive meaning, evolve, and transform.
