Facing problems in your home life or relationships? Struggling to feel heard, understood, connected? Has the spark faded as the grind of life crowds out time together? Worried that something is wrong, but can’t quite put your finger on it—leaving you feeling lonely, depressed, anxious, and afraid? Has your trust been violated? Are people telling you it’s time to move on, but you feel conflicted? If you are at the end of your rope, I can help. I can guide you in learning how to connect with one another, rebuild trust, resolve conflicts, and become fully present with family at the end of a hard day’s work.

I will teach you how to connect with one another by deescalating intensity, developing listening skills, rebuild trust, accept responsibility, practice vulnerability and offer forgiveness, allow time and space for grieve losses, and co-create a vision for a new future. I will teach conflict resolution & develop solutions & to be fully present with family.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my personal experience as a first-generation immigrant and clinical background in adoption, trauma, and cancer care give me a unique perspective with cultural challenges that ethnic minorities may face and If you're determined to break free from unhealthy choices and strive for a better life, then reach out to me!

Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOA) Therapy Group

Hosted by

Samar Barlota

Our ACoA (Adult Children of Alcoholics) therapy group offers a safe, supportive environment for adults who grew up in alcoholic or otherwise dysfunctional homes to identify and heal from childhood trauma and the lasting effects of that upbringing, such as low self-esteem, difficulty with boundaries, and unhealthy relationship patterns. Members develop healthy coping mechanisms, express emotions constructively, and learn to provide for their own emotional needs, ultimately fostering a sense of wholeness and enabling them to live more fulfilling lives

Sex Addiction Recovery Therapy Group

Hosted by

Samar Barlota

Therapy group designed for ongoing recovery, designed to create a safe and supportive environment to achieve and maintain sexual sobriety, make deep connections, practice accountability, and work through deeper issues. It is a combination of group processing, outside homework assignments, and experiential work done in a non-judgemental atmosphere of safety, confidentiality, and respect. The group focus is on learning to use the tools of recovery, monitoring sexual sobriety, breaking through denial, and maintaining a life balance that is conducive to recovery. This group compliments individual therapy by managing the addiction in a structured supportive setting.
