My name is Nazanin Arkan, and I am Licensed Marriage and Family therapist with a master's in counseling psychology with over 9 years of experiences in the mental health field. I have experience working with adults with substance use challenges and high-functioning dual diagnosis patients. My treatment approach varies and is individualized as I use CBT, client centered, or mindfulness-based approach. Although my treatment approach varies, I firmly believe in the importance of getting to know the whole person and their uniqueness, and removing labels and judgments associated with them.

I have had the honor of working with individuals across the lifespan with a variety of mental health concerns such as trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, sexual and gender-identity related issues, family dynamics, and more. I believe that human beings are inherently relational and that we are born to thrive in connection to others and wouldn’t be who we are if not for the people that have come in, and sometimes out, of our lives. Examining these relationships can be a huge part of therapy, whether it’s with our parents, our partners, or with ourselves.

Life is full of surprises and not all are easy to handle. It's human to feel overwhelmed with work demands, adapting to a new country, navigating postpartum, managing family life, or facing relationship challenges. It's normal to experience self-doubt or pursue unachievable perfection at times. Feelings of anxiety, sadness, trouble sleeping, or impacts of past traumas might arise, making life more difficult. This is where therapy can make a significant difference, offering a space for self-reflection and strengthening your relationship with yourself and others.

Are you grappling with the aftermath of sexual assault? It's common to experience a range of intense and confusing emotions, from fear and anger to guilt and sadness. These feelings can deeply affect your studies, relationships, and self-image. My focus is on providing a safe, understanding space where your feelings are heard and validated. We'll work together to navigate these complex emotions, helping you regain a sense of empowerment and control over your life.

Are you unhappy with your relationships, whether they are intimate or social? Are you divorced or grieving a relationship and feel overwhelmed by the experience? I support individuals and couples navigate all of their critical relationships and the challenges that come up within them. I support my clients in better understanding why they are facing such challenges, and support them in moving forward and healing.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process between the client and myself. My hope is to create a safe environment to explore your emotions and issues that brought you to counseling. My style is both direct and nurturing. I specialize working with adolescents and adults individually, as couples or with a family. I use an eclectic approach to best support long-term well being in your daily life.

You're self aware, you think you know what you want, but you don't know how to get it. You struggle to apply what you already know to your every day life leaving you at times anxious, confused and discontent. You are committed to growth and deepening your self-knowledge but have some unknown or tricky blockages that get in the way. You want to improve your relationship to yourself and your capacity for relationships with others but you need help developing healthier boundaries. You just want to know and be your authentic self so you can thrive in life, but self-doubt and shame keep creeping in!

Hello! My name is Julie Hirsch and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT131536). We all tell ourselves stories, and. I see therapy as a place where we examine your story together, imagine new possible narratives, and discover the parts of yourself that are resilient and capable of change. I have experience working with children, teens, and adults. I most enjoy working with adults of all ages who are struggling with stress, grief and loss, trauma, depression, anxiety, relational issues, life transitions, and childhood neglect or abuse.

I believe that people have the capacity for amazing feats of growth and change and as a psychologist my role is to partner with my clients as they take this great journey. Change and growth are not always easy, doing something different than what you used to can feel overwhelming. I am here to provide a affirming, culturally humble, supportive, safe, nonjudgmental therapeutic environment that allows for you to further explore the issues you are struggling with and to make the most effective changes to better handle life's challenges, while also striving toward living a meaningful and fulfilling life.

I use an in-depth focus that has a practical application. I understand past and present difficulties within the context of family relationships. I think of each person as dynamic and changeable. When a person comes to me for help, I understand that person to be stuck in ways that are out of their conscious awareness. Work and/or relationship functioning can easily be blocked or limited. Changing is complex and requires the assistance of a skilled and caring professional. If you are ready to face the deeper issues interfering with your personal success, it is time to contact me.

Connection with one’s self and others is everything. However, if you’re faced with internal struggles, like anxiety, or external factors, like life adjustments, this can be a recipe for feeling off-balanced. Together, we'll explore what’s important to you, in order to build insight to your inner struggles and help you foster stronger bonds. As a Black woman, I am passionate about working with BIPOC individuals who may feel the weight of cultural expectations, societal injustices, or struggle with finding their place in the world. My role is to provide a space where these feelings are not just heard but deeply understood and felt.

Stress, trauma, disconnection, transition, stuckness. These are extremely difficult human experiences. Yet, our societies, cultures, and learned responses often tell us to move on, hide, or push away our real experiences. Having worked in a variety of international, educational, and clinical settings, I’ve been privileged to witness how exploring one’s challenges and pain can provide meaning, healing, and growth. Grounded in both the science and personalized applications of psychology and therapy, I believe the earlier we can process and make meaning of our experiences, the more meaningful life opportunities await.
