Pema works online with individuals, aged 12 and up. He supports clients seeking assistance with areas such as: life transitions, young adult life, military life, college life, LGBTQIA+ support, relationship issues, self-esteem, motivation building, stress management, grief/loss, anxiety disorders, anger, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, substance abuse, trauma, and co-occurring disorders.
I work well with individuals, families and people looking to find love.
According to Pema: “I am here because I care. About you, about everyone. I focus on creating a safe and non-judgmental space to support your self-discovery, improving mental health, and developing inspired, practical dreams. Therapy with me is Holistic. I seek to help people be healthy primarily mentally, but also in other areas which matter to them."
