My approach to therapy comes from a collaborative, client-centered and unconditional positivity to assist you in believing in yourself, to find the courage and resilience to face your struggles, and help you reconstruct a life balance. I find that when I hold a space for clients and their struggles and defenses, they learn they can begin to trust in another human being, be heard and understood, and eventually learn to trust themselves, and even learn to like themselves.

Life is a journey! Do you feel overwhelmed, distressed, disconnected or lost, is your life hard to navigate. I believe that compassionate, reflective therapy can help restore vitality and renew hope. Individuals, couples, children/families, experience emotional struggles and challenging behaviors because of the impact of a variety of past and present variables, not because of weakness. Symptoms/Behaviors are simply indicators of need, and actually illuminate innate strength that guides healing. I'mabout collaborating with you to build strengths, explore barriers to enjoyment of life, and create a joyful resilience.

I know seeking therapy is scary, but I want to make this a welcoming and comfortable experience for you. Life has many ups and downs and we all need guidance sometimes. I am trauma informed and have over twenty years of working experience outside of counseling. I know the privilege I have as a cis gendered, heterosexual, light skinned Asian American woman, but I also know the flip side of being a minority in a majority white city. We can discuss and unpack your trauma together in a supportive environment. Whether it be depression, anxiety, stress or trauma, I can help you overcome it.

Hello, I am Roberto Brindusesc. My fascination with psychology has been a defining aspect of my academic and personal journey. During the early stages of my undergraduate education, I was confronted with the challenges of depression and anxiety. At that pivotal juncture, I became acutely aware of my own limitations in comprehending and addressing them. It was this that ignited my passionate pursuit of knowledge and practical tools within the realm of psychology.

Starting therapy for the first time, or with someone new, can bring up feelings of vulnerability. There’s no right or wrong way to start, or reasons needed to begin. I believe all people can benefit from therapy. After all, being a human is hard enough. With me, the process of coming to therapy is made simple through co-creating safety and trust. I allow space where people can be human, share their truth, explore identities and practice new learning. I’m accepting clients ages 5+ for in-person and ages 13+ for telehealth or in-person. Clients under 13 unable to do in-person are encouraged to start parent sessions to foster change.

Our trauma can leave us with feelings of shame, resentment, and guilt. When we don't take the time for our own recovery and healing, we can find ourselves becoming stressed and overwhelmed. We become unrecognizable to ourselves and disconnected from our own needs. Our physical health is impacted. We experience spiraling thoughts and an inability to relax. Our anger and sadness are easily triggered. We sabotage our important relationships. We lack trust and fear intimacy. We find ourselves feeling undeserving of the goodness life has to offer.

**Waitlist** Living authentically can be scary, rather intimidating. With support of a therapist, individuals can learn to accept, even embrace, the vulnerability that the process towards authenticity requires. Within a supportive therapeutic relationship, clients can explore personal beliefs and develop their identity. Many individuals struggle with processing life events but it doesn't have to be done alone or involve constant suffering. Life events can be difficult, even "positive" ones such as the birth of a child; postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety are real and it doesn't have to ruin your experience as a parent!
