Therapy should be an invitation for each client to reach full potential in coping with life's transitions or problems in a safe environment. As a licensed professional counselor, I provide a relaxing atmosphere for you to discover possible ways for you to enjoy your life while addressing important issues. My focus is working with adult individuals using a variety of counseling approaches according to each client's need.

I understand that your perception is your reality. My name is Elina Kharmats, and I have 10 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. I practice integrative therapy, which combines elements from different therapeutic modalities, and personalize the treatment according to the needs of each client. Some of these approaches include person centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, family systems therapy, and gestalt therapy, among others.

With over 25 years of clinical experience, I offer practical steps and guidance that promote awareness and forward movement with the challenges brought to therapy. Are you going through a difficult time overwhelmed with emotion, or working hard and aiming to please but find you are worn out and satisfying no one, including yourself? You may be feeling stuck in an unhealthy relationship or behavior pattern. You may be struggling with that "inner critic" that succeeds in throwing you off your game. I strive to provide a safe environment where relief and desired change can replace pain, distress, and frustration.

I am an EMDR trained Licensed Professional Counselor -Intern, I have experience working with individuals, families, teens and adolescents. I am bi-lingual in English and Arabic. My approach in therapy is existential and person center oriented. I like to take my time to listen and challenge a client’s thoughts so that we can expand on self-awareness.

I treat a wide range of behavioral, emotional, and psychological problems, working with all ages - individuals, couples, and families. I have helped developmentally delayed children and their families, as well as troubled teenagers in need of residential treatment. I participated in research regarding successful parenting practices, and have facilitated positive change in some children by working just with the parents.

In my practice I focus on Freedom - The freedom to love and be loved authentically. In life we can be held back by obstacles we can't see as well as by obstacles we can see. I specialize in helping clients working to free themselves from those roadblocks. Successful clients have entered my office asking questions like: "No matter what I say, my spouse hears something different." "Why am I doing this, again?" "I've done everything I know, and not advancing at work," "Why won't these thoughts (fears) leave me alone?"

Life is all about relationships and how we respond to our environment. I love helping people have better relationships, whether it's with your spouse, children, friends, relatives, or co-workers. I find that when we have good relationships in our life, we are able to better deal with life's stressors and life is much more meaningful. You may be a high functioning person, but a few relationship helps can go a long way to a more fulfilling life. Maybe right now you are not high functioning and need a major overhaul. We will sort that out together.

Do you ever feel like words fall short of expressing how you truly feel? I understand how intimidating reaching out for help can be, but art therapy allows us to express ourselves with our visual voice rather than words. Even better yet, art therapy does not require any prior experience or creative skill because it is about the process rather than the final product. I enjoy working collaboratively with clients of all ages and I am passionate about providing a safe and creative space for healing and growth where you feel supported, seen, heard, and understood.

Do you feel bogged down with anger, anxiety, depression and/or overwhelming stress? Is your marriage in trouble? There is hope. We are not made to live life alone. Sometimes talking to someone with a caring, professional ear is what it takes to set in motion a lasting change for the better. Overcoming the obstacles that stop us and excelling to become a better person, spouse, parent and/or professional is my goal in partnering with you.

Are you overwhelmed with life right now and just feel like you're not yourself? Have you been told you're too sensitive or take things too personally? Are you struggling in your relationships? I help individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-worth, eating disorders, relationship challenges and childhood trauma. I have a special interest in working with the highly sensitive/empaths. I'll help you learn healthy coping skills for the here and now, while also taking a look back into your history to find what's getting in the way of happiness and healthy relationships. Together, we'll build your positive self-worth.

Why do I feel so down? How do I find hope? What is hope? Hope leaves room for us to work on our strengths, so we can learn to handle what may come our way. Together, we will work to explore and understand your life stressors, while learning how to love yourself, others and the world. We will work on embracing your strengths, as well as your challenges to empower you, in a safe, collaborative, and supportive atmosphere. We will walk through this "messy" journey, together to help you uncover this beautiful thing we call life.

Clients who are open to an explorative process with structure to thoroughly focus our sessions will value the time and financial investment.
