Everyone faces challenges and obstacles in their lives. These times are often an opportunity for change, growth and healing. Seeking professional support and guidance can help you move through these difficult moments and experiences to a healthier place in your life. I believe in a holistic approach with each unique client. We will create a plan together to address your goals and purpose for therapy. I have specialized training in trauma treatment, CBT/ DBT, and family interventions.

I am here to support your goals and help you during this time in your life. Therapy is a way to acknowledge one's inner strength, find healing and to tap into the empowerment you possess to face the challenges that may arise.

Are you tired of experiencing the same patterns and want to heal at the root of your symptoms? I specialize in treating trauma, addictions, and self esteem issues - in particularly with women and teenagers. When my clients first come in, their lives are overrun by fear and insecurities. They carry around deep shame about who they are and never feel quite “good enough”. They want to be confident and heal the patterns that are holding them back but do not know where to start.

We are a dedicated and compassionate group of exceptionally trained therapists working together to provide a wide range of services for children, adolescents, adults, and families. We are widely respected for our ability to offer state-of-the-art therapeutic services for all ages in a caring, friendly and confidential environment. A plan for each client is developed based on their unique personal history, strengths and needs.

As a psychologist I work collaboratively with my clients to address their concerns (both in-person and via teleheath). I have extensive experience working from an interpersonal perspective with adolescents and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family issues, trauma, loss and adjustment to life changes (e.g. illness, divorce). I believe it is important to explore how a client's family background, culture and social environment play a role in the challenges my clients are experiencing. I view people as resilient and help clients to use their strengths and resources to make positive changes in their lives.

The Center for Holistic Intervention utilizes holistic and innovative therapeutic approaches to foster an individual's self-awareness, self-empowerment, and self-determination. In nurturing your self-awareness, you can gain insight and identify your adaptive and maladaptive behavioral patterns. Hence, you can learn how to develop more adaptive automatic thoughts, core beliefs, and behavioral responses with a series of cognitive restructuring and behavioral activities. Ultimately, helping you acknowledge the possibility of accepting the things you can and cannot change in your life.

At our core, we all seek to feel acceptance, love, and competence. When these basic needs are not being met in our life we often begin to feel lost, stuck, or alone. My compassionate, relationally informed practice allows me to join with you to understand what life looks and feels like through your lens. Together we will examine early attachments and relationships to discover learned core beliefs and how they impact the way you see yourself and relate to the world around you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has experience working with adolescents and adults on how to cope with the ups and downs of life. Anxiety is something we all experience so learning to lean into all emotions and live well with the discomfort is something that guides my approach.

I am a huge believer in the importance of the therapist/client relationship and truly think that the thing that leads to success in therapy is the connection.

Change can be intimidating, but it can also be liberating. Brijuan helps clients with getting reconnected with themselves through practice of implementing strong boundaries, mastering singlehood, and addressing history of trauma. Brijuan approaches therapy in a collaborative manner where the client leads the direction, while she supports from the sideline. She actively listens and creates a space of authenticity, openness, care, respect, and warmth. She assists clients with finding meaning in life stressors and pivoting in ways that make everyday life easier and enjoyable to help clients exude power, happiness, and resilience.

I specialize in helping patients that are dealing with anxiety, depression, and trauma related issues. Worry, fear and bad memories often interfere with a person’s daily life. These problems can be very stressful and can affect a person’s social relationships, work performance, and self esteem. These individuals often turn to maladaptive coping strategies such as drugs and/or alcohol to find relief. I work with these patients to help them manage life difficulties and heal from past trauma in order to learn new ways of thinking and coping.

In life we often find ourselves overcoming obstacles. Sometimes we can conquer these hardships ourselves and other times we require some additional support.

As a clinical psychologist, I aim to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where we can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences together.

I am also well versed in a wide array of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, sleep, and body image issues.

Thinking of therapy? Ask us for the first session free. IPG paved the way for other Queer-affirmative therapists. Founded in 1983 specifically to serve the LGBTQ+ community, back when most practitioners viewed it as a mental illness, we are still trailblazers, working with trans/GNC folks, bi/pansexuals, the kink/BDSM community, consensual nonmonogamists, and others who make up the "Q+" in LGBTQ+. You may not want therapy because you are gay, but you likely want a therapist who is not only affirming but knowledgeable. We understand the special issues of LGBTQ+ individuals, couples, and families, and we provide sex therapy as well.

I specialize in working with individuals, families, and couples. My intentions are to empower my clients to create positive change in their lives in ways that create movement towards better health, stronger relationships, and greater overall life satisfaction.
