"When we work together, you'll learn how to identify the root cause of your feelings as well as acquire skills to successfully navigate the stressors of life." -Ha
Beneath your smile is sadness, loneliness, worry, or self doubt. Though you're trying your best to be strong, you feel like you're crumbling inside. It's been weeks, months, or even years since anxiety, stress, or depression has taken its grip on you. Perhaps you've distracted yourself by keeping busy or numbing yourself with food, substances, or social media. Your relationships is on the rocks and you feel physically, mentally, and emotionally drained.
Hello! My name is Ha. My passion to offer hope and help individuals, couples, and families heal. Allow me to walk along beside you and offer support through this time in your life. When we work together, you'll learn how to identify the root cause of your feelings as well as acquire skills to successfully navigate the stressors of life and your relationships.
I view therapy as a collaborative process of equals. My role as a counselor is to help you build on your individual strengths and maximize your potential for personal growth and fulfillment. My goal is:
1) to provide a safe environment where you and your family can feel comfortable to explore the past, gain personal insight and make positive changes.
2) help relieve, reduce, and resolve debilitating symptoms of stress and trauma.
My holistic approach to counseling incorporates mind, body, and spirit. I may refer you to an alternative therapy such as a nutritional counselor to address nutritional deficiencies or food sensitivities which may affect your mind and body. I believe that faith and spirituality is a crucial element in the therapeutic process. Regardless of your religious beliefs or background, be assured that I will respect and honor your spirituality. Beyond traditional talk therapy, I utilize the creative arts (journaling, art, music, movement) in the therapeutic process to help you explore and express your feelings. I also utilize guided imagery, mindfulness, and meditativeness approaches for spiritual awareness and relaxation. I do not believe "one size fits all" in counseling; therefore, I will tailor a variety of counseling modalities for your unique, individual needs. I value your input and encourage you to discuss any concerns you have throughout our work together.
Anxiety, Trauma & PTSD Specialization
I specialize in working with a wide spectrum of anxiety and anxiety-related disorders including mild worry to Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. I am a certified trauma therapist (EMDR & Accelerated Resolution Therapy). Both are effective and powerful approaches to treating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to provide you with the tools for lasting change.
Relationship Issues Specialization
Rejection, betrayal, or abandonment from childhood or previous relationships may be affecting your current relationship. Working from an attachment perspective, my focus is on helping you achieve a secure connection with your partner. I will guide you in session to connect with your partner, stop the cycle of fighting, give you tools to repair & find the hope, and re-ignite love. I have specialized training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples which is grounded by over 20 years of successful outcome research. EFT is the most cutting-edge, proven, and tested model to help couples resolve conflicts, strengthen their bonds, and better their communication skills. 95% of couples who experience EFT report significant improvements in their relationship. To see how Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples meets the Gold Standard of Couple Therapy, visit ICEEFT.com.
I provide convenient online couples therapy or sessions in my office.
"My aim is to help individuals and couples be aware and intentional in how they respond, rather than react. By learning to do this, we will create the change that transforms your life and relationships. "
