I think it’s safe to say life is hard. There is so much going on in the world and in our lives that it can be hard to navigate everything that is placed in front of us. We all go through struggles and challenges and it’s okay to seek professional help for them. Growing up as a Chinese American, I recognize the complexities of family and social dynamics and how it can have an immense impact in who we become and how we view ourselves.

In my opinion, any successful therapy relationship must first begin with an atmosphere of safety, trust, and mutual understanding of the challenges that lay ahead. Using this as a starting point, I view therapy as an opportunity for my clients to safely explore the self, which involves taking a closer, more intimate look at how one's experience of self impacts and is impacted by the world in which one lives. Ideally, this process involves the development of insight into how one experiences blocks or challenges in the world outside our selves – in relationships, work, academics, or creative pursuits.

I would describe my therapeutic approach as collaborative, supportive, genuine, and goal-oriented. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy. I help my clients to develop new strategies that allow them to cope, heal, and pursue what is important to them. I believe it is important to learn about the relationships among our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. With this knowledge we can identify and practice a combination of acceptance and change skills to move forward in a desired direction.

Do you find yourself stuck in unhealthy patterns that are causing you to show up as less than who you want to be? Are you frustrated with feeling like you have to keep it all together? Does your inability to say “no” keep you overwhelmed and out of balance? Perhaps, you are experiencing excessive worry about the future and question whether you’re on the right path or are doing enough. In cases like this, fear has taken a disruptive hold on your life and talking with friends and family, journaling and meditating just isn’t enough.

I have been a therapist for over 20 years and use a method for helping others that is compassionate, collaborative, and goal oriented. I use a cognitive-behavioral model and will help you look at multiple aspects of problems: environmental factors, stressors, and the heart of cognitive therapy- your thinking patterns. Some might think that CBT doesn’t give credit to our emotions, but this isn’t the case! In fact, therapy starts with exploring the painful emotions that bring people to therapy. Before changes happen and goals are set, I want to fully understand what clients are going through by listening with empathy and compassion.

Individuals reach out to me because they're feeling stuck in life. They've tried everything they can think of to move forward to fix the issues on their own and need some assistance to move through these roadblock. Often, they are struggling in their relationships and their self-worth. These folks tend to benefit from building a variety of healthy skills to manage the day-to-day symptoms while we simultaneously work to resolve past negative life experiences that have created the issues.

Hi there, I'm Susan! I have been a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for 20 years. My clinical experience has been working with adults, adolescents, and children providing individual, couple, & group psychotherapy. Psychotherapy refers to different techniques and methods used to help people who are experiencing difficulties with their emotions, thoughts, or behaviors. Although there are different types of psychotherapy, each relies on communication as the basic tool for bringing about change in a person's feelings and behaviors.

Hello, my name is Martin Bordson, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 38 years of experience in the field (24 licensed) and based in San Diego California.
