Photo of Lediya Dumessa, Psychologist, PhD
As a therapist, I integrate cognitive-behavioral and humanistic theories, which I find effective in building meaningful therapeutic relationships while simultaneously challenging and restructuring thoughts and modifying relevant behaviors. My personal and professional experiences living in different parts of the world have increased my sensitivity to the differences in how individuals from different cultural backgrounds experience mental health concerns and seek treatment. As such, I am passionate about making mental health resources accessible to a wide range of communities, and strive to provide culturally sensitive treatments.
I have experience implementing empirically supported treatments for varied presenting concerns, such as depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, grief, trauma, acculturation issues, interpersonal difficulties, and substance use disorders.
