I work with men, women, students, and couples. My master's focus was in mental health and trauma, my PhD internship focused on community mental health. I treat anxiety and stress, along with trauma disorders using EMDR. I can help clients with a wide range of issues. My approach to therapy is client centered. I treat the whole person, not just a symptom profile of the person. Results from my work include symptom reduction and clients feeling more confident and focused. Clients also report not feeling so burdened internally, thus freeing them to be more alive and present, thus increasing quality of life experience,

I often work with people who are experiencing sadness, frustration, anxiety, loneliness, and loss of meaning in their lives. Sometimes they know the cause of their feelings but many times they do not. Developing an awareness, understanding, and compassion for one's lived experience can help heal the pain causing our feelings. The work I do with clients often focuses on emotion and trauma. (I am also a Gottman-certified couples' therapist).

My therapeutic approach is derived from a combination of cognitive-behavioral and systemic techniques. Each interaction is addressed in relation to habitual patterns that may have become stuck or conflictual, and a systemic therapist makes interventions to help the client (s) consciously make healthier choices to create more intimacy or functionality in these relationships. I have been in private practice for over 10 years, helping couples and individuals with their relationship conflicts and psychiatric challenges as well as their desires for improved communication and intimacy.

I specialize in helping professional and retired adults navigate challenges that test the most resilient among us. How to heal from trauma and loss, keep living after major illness, cope with big uncertainties, and love more fully are common therapy goals. Please visit my website, saranash.com, to learn more about working with me.

Do you feel stuck in your relationship? You desire more connection, intimacy, security, and better communication in your relationship but aren’t sure how to get there? Whether you're about to give up or are thriving and just want to strengthen what you have, I believe an even more fulfilling relationship is still possible. I hold the conviction that each one of us was created with the capacity to heal, individually and as a couple. Primarily using Emotionally Focused Therapy, based in Attachment Theory, I can help you and your partner identify unhelpful cycles so that you can become more aware and empowered to create new patterns.

**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN JUNE.** Too often we are unable to fully experience our potential in life because we are in pain, feel stuck, or are struggling with difficult emotions. During these times it can be hard to gather the strength needed to move forward. My approach is humanistic, interactive, and collaborative in nature. I trust that a secure and trusting therapeutic relationship has the potential to facilitate tremendous growth and emotional repair. As one moves toward healing my hope is that our work together will empower you to make the meaningful changes and facilitate personal growth.

I enjoy helping clients break free from anxiety and worry, explore patterns of behavior and relationships, and process traumatic experiences. I have worked in residential substance use treatment, crisis intervention, and systemic family therapy. My work is greatly influenced and informed by Existential, Feminist, and Narrative therapy approaches, and I understand that human problems and relationships must be considered within systems and social contexts. I have experienced my own healing in talk therapy and strongly believe in the effectiveness of the therapeutic relationship in finding new ways to relate to ourselves and others.

Welcome and congratulations on considering couples therapy! I primarily work with couples who are highly motivated, and ready to actively work on their relationship. Many of the couples I work with are stressed, struggle with communicating, and may even be close to ending their relationship. I also work with couples who are interested in enhancing an already stable relationship. The couples I work with are seeking hands-on direction, support, and tools to improve their communication and connection.

Hi, I’m Cyndi Oberdan, and if you’re reading my page, I can tell that no matter what you're going through right now, you have COURAGE.

Clients come to me to work on issues of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, anger management concerns, recovering from sexual assault/sexual abuse, and for exploring issues of sexual identity or sexuality issues. I am comfortable working with individuals, couples, and entire families -- and I am comfortable working with children, adolescents, and adults. I provide a safe and welcoming environment in which to explore the issues of concern to you.

I work with couples who are struggling with the blame game. When we get distressed we talk at our loved ones, rather than with them. It’s a sign of how alone and scared we feel, and how hungry we are for connection. Many of us simply miss our partner's emotional bids and don’t have a map for secure relationships. I help partners to listen with new awareness and to speak with more self-responsibility and tenderness.
