Therapists in Kern County, CA

I believe being loved, heard, seen, and understood are the fundamental needs of all human beings. Experiencing joy and having needs met are crucial for both children and adults. If you are someone who is willing to learn how to cope with life’s challenges and heal from past trauma, I would be honored to walk by your side and witness the ‘aha’ moments you experience in your journey. My goal is to assist you in finding your purpose and meaning in life and work on your current issues, needs, and goals.

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 considering the whole person- heart, soul, mind and body, I trust that you enter therapy having the insight you need to navigate your distress. I use the term "depth emergence" to explain my orientation and approach. It stems from depth psychology, which emphasizes gaining access to the unconscious and bringing it into consciousness. While increasing awareness we derive meaning, evolve, and transform.

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 past traumatic experiences, being an adult child of a dysfunctional home, incest survival experiences, addiction issues, phobia, panic, anxiety, C-PTSD or depression affecting your success? Are distractions impacting your optimal performance abilities at work, in your intimate relationships, or in relationships with family members or with yourself? Are you surviving instead of thriving? I provide accelerated psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are challenged by performance loss and emotional unhappiness. Also offer Diagnosis evaluation for addiction, mood, personality, and adult Autism spectrum. HSP and Kink friendly.

My ideal client has nuerotic tendencies and is intelligent enough to develop insight, is motivated to get better and become more actualized. I do well with clients who are suffering from depression, anxiety, panic disorder and addiction & meditation. Other issues I am experienced in are work related problems, mediation, writers block, performance issues and performance anxiety as well as phase of life issues and couples counseling. I also enjoy working with clients who come from alcoholic families or had a history of trauma. My training lends itself well to helping clients by using EMDR, CBT, ACT & Psychodynamic therapy.

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.

My intention is to help clients experience healthy, fulfilling relationships with themselves and the people in their lives. I work to gain your trust & be your ally as you take on life's challenges.
