Everyday life stressors and tasks can feel overwhelming when you are dealing with anxiety. It can show up as perfectionism, people-pleasing, panic, and overwhelm, or never being able to rest. I help clients break out of these anxious cycles and feel more at peace and resilient as they face day-to-day life. Together, we uncover what is underneath the anxiety, change your relationship to it, and find real tools and techniques to stop letting your anxiety run your life. My approach is always nonjudgmental and collaborative in order to provide a safe place to openly process your emotions and experiences. I use a client-centered approach and evidence-based techniques to help reduce stress and anxiety.

I specialize in working with adult individuals and couples, facing challenges with relationships and divorce, coping with anxiety and depression, and navigating life's myriad challenges. I also work with executives and professionals helping them understand how their inner world affects their professional effectiveness and efficiency. All of my work is grounded in evidenced-based treatments including: DBT (dialectical behavior therapy), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), PCM (Process Communications Model) and value-oriented and mindfulness-based approaches—tailored to best fit the needs of my clients. I am empathic, direct, and dedicated to your progress. Together we’ll achieve the changes you desire and need as quickly as you need it.

In my 25 years of practice, I have experience with a wide range of therapeutic modalities. I have an eclectic therapeutic style, but primarily I utilize the method known as client-centered therapy. This approach was developed by Carl Rogers, who was one of the originators of the humanistic therapy approach. Emphasis is on the importance of being your true self in order to lead the most fulfilling life. The core belief is that people are innately good at heart and capable of making the right choices for themselves. Like Rogers, I believe that you are capable of change and possess the ability to find the solutions to your own problems. My role is to support and guide you as you face the obstacles that are causing disruptions in your life. I will help you identify obstacles that you don't have control over, and help you with acceptance of this. I will also assist you in identifying what you do have control over, such as how you react and respond to events in your life. I will use the technique of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you recognize dysfunctional thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in response to events in your life. You will learn that you have been engaging in this process for many years, having created an automatic pattern, causing you to feel stuck. Originally developed by Aaron Beck, and then later expanded on by David Burns, this is primarily a psychoeducational technique. Written exercises are used to reveal these dysfunctional patterns, as well as learning healthier ways to respond. Over the years, I have used these, and a multitude of other techniques to help clients in their growth process. But human beings are complex, and there is not one catch-all approach to therapy. There are so many variables, such as culture, family of origin history, traumas and losses, physical and other mental health challenges. I believe that the key to successful therapy is the therapist-client relationship. I think it's important to demonstrate to you, the client, that I am a human being first. This helps to promote trust, and allows you to feel safe enough to share your vulnerability with me. So, as I get to know you, you can become confident that my training and clinical experience will direct me to the best approaches to help compassionately guide you through your journey.

The world can feel heavy and ever-changing, and sometimes we just need a space to breathe, slow down, and reconnect. I believe that genuine connection is at the heart of healing, whether that’s with others or within yourself. Every person and every family has their own story, pace, and path toward growth. In our work together, I offer a safe and supportive space where you can show up as your authentic self. I see you as the expert of your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you as we explore what you need to feel more grounded, balanced, and at peace.

I work with people who sense there's more to their life than the story they've been living, the ones who've done the conventional therapy, read the books, maybe even built a "successful" life on paper, and still feel a persistent ache that something essential in them has gone unlived. My approach draws on 16 years of clinical practice and training in depth psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute, integrated with a framework I've developed called The Genius Way®, built around the distinction between what I call your Genius Drive (the authentic pull toward your deepest capacities) and your Wound Drive (the patterns that keep you small, safe, and disconnected from that pull). Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we work at the level of the pattern underneath them. This isn't therapy that stays only in the cognitive or behavioral register. I bring a Jungian and transpersonal lens to the work, meaning we make room for dreams, synchronicity, meaning, and the parts of your experience that don't reduce neatly to diagnosis. If you're someone who thinks in symbols, or who's drawn to frameworks like Human Design, astrology, or the Enneagram as tools for self-understanding, you'll find that language welcome here rather than pathologized. I offer individual depth-oriented psychotherapy via telehealth across California, Oregon, and Washington. My clients tend to be high-functioning, introspective, and quietly done pretending everything's fine when it isn't. If you're ready to stop managing your life and start actually living it, I'd be glad to talk.

Deciding to enter psychotherapy is one of the most compassionate choices you can make for yourself. In fact, it can represent an essential turning point in your life. However, it can also sometimes feel uncomfortable to talk to someone you don't know well. That's why I provide a caring, safe environment where I will listen to you carefully and where we will work together to understand and resolve the issues with which you are struggling--both in terms of how they affect your life now and in terms of how they became issues for you in the first place. I work with adults and adolescents who are struggling with a wide range of concerns, including relationship difficulties, perfectionism, anxiety, depression, loss, low self-esteem, and many more. When you enter my office, we will talk together about what you are having difficulty with and where you are feeling stuck. I strongly believe that therapy should be an interactive process, where we work together as a team. I received my bachelor's degree in psychology from Yale University and my master's degree in clinical social work from New York University. My theoretical approach is eclectic, but grounded in a psychodynamic approach to therapy, which means that we will work to establish benefits that not only help you right now, but can also stand the test of time. I look forward to hearing from you!

As an associate marriage and family therapist, my work centers on helping individuals and couples navigate the complex terrain of intimacy, loss, and renewal. I believe therapy is not just about symptom relief, but about understanding the deeper stories that shape our emotional lives — the patterns, inherited narratives, and inner conflicts that influence how we love, connect, and heal. My style is direct yet deeply compassionate, creating a space where honesty and empathy work hand in hand. I help clients uncover the truth beneath their struggles while feeling supported, seen, and safely challenged toward growth and healing. I specialize in working with those impacted by sex addiction and betrayal, guiding both individuals and couples through the painful process of rebuilding trust and rediscovering connection. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, blending depth psychology with evidence-based methods to honor each client’s unique story and pace of healing. I also support young women in exploring identity, self-worth, and relationship patterns, as well as individuals navigating significant life transitions such as divorce, retirement, or the empty-nest stage. In addition, I work with grief and loss, helping clients make sense of what feels unbearable and find meaning in the space between what was and what is becoming. These seasons of change often bring questions of belonging and purpose, and I see therapy as a place to explore those thresholds with curiosity and care. At the heart of my work is the belief that crisis can be a powerful catalyst for transformation. Whether you are facing betrayal, grief, or a loss of direction, my intention is to help you move from crisis toward clarity, rebuild connection with yourself and others, and rediscover the deeper sense of meaning that makes life feel whole again.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step—you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to offer a supportive, honest, and compassionate space where you can move at your own pace. As a Mexican American and child of immigrants, I bring a culturally grounded perspective to therapy. I speak Spanglish and understand the complexity of navigating multiple worlds, identities, and expectations. My goal is to help you feel seen, heard, and empowered in your healing journey. I work with teens, young adults, and families from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. Whether you’re facing transitions, trauma, relationship challenges, or emotional overwhelm, I aim to meet you where you are—with curiosity, care, and collaboration. In my practice, I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities to tailor support to each individual or family. These include family systems approaches, narrative therapy, and solution-focused therapy, which allow for flexible and personalized care based on your unique needs and goals. I am also trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), evidence-based modalities that support trauma recovery and emotional regulation. Above all, I strive to create a space where you feel respected, heard, and empowered as you navigate your healing process.

I believe meaningful change may begin when you feel seen, heard, and cared for! My approach is integrative. I engage my specialized training and clinical experience utilizing cognitive behavioral, humanistic, family systems, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, and somatic methodologies, as well as relationship transitions, co-parenting, reconciliation, discernment counseling, and collaborative divorce practices. Therapeutic support is provided for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, codependency and relationship dynamics, LGBTQ+ identity, and personal growth. Currently, within my private practice, I work with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families in person and virtually via telehealth. My former positions as a co-clinical director within an addiction and trauma treatment center, a college professor, and a school counselor have informed my clinical perspective and advanced my skill set. I have been offering clinical services in the mental health field for over 30 years and obtained my Master of Science and Doctoral degrees from the University of Southern California. I am professionally prepared and licensed to practice in California, Utah, and Florida, and also maintain a California Pupil Personnel Service (PPS) credential.

I hold a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy, which has equipped me with the knowledge and expertise to address a wide range of emotional and relational issues. My education and ongoing training allow me to provide evidence-based therapeutic interventions and support tailored to your unique needs. Deciding if it's the right time for therapy can be a deeply personal choice. If you're experiencing emotional distress, facing life transitions, or struggling with relationships, therapy can be a beneficial resource. It's essential to acknowledge your own readiness and willingness to engage in the therapeutic process. Therapy can be a powerful tool for personal growth and healing. In my practice, I incorporate several therapeutic modalities, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR is an evidence-based therapy used to treat trauma, anxiety, and other emotional distress. It involves a structured eight-phase approach, including assessment, desensitization, and reprocessing, helping individuals process and heal from distressing experiences.

Hello, my name is Dr. Arthur Chou. I am a board-certified child and adolescent psychiatrist who specializes in supporting teens who are struggling with attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, or other mental health concerns. They may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure how to handle big emotions or life changes. Their goals are finding balance, building healthy coping skills, and improving connections with family and friends. Most of all, they want to be able to go back to just focusing on being a teen. My philosophy is to take a holistic approach that goes beyond symptoms to understand the whole teenager. I consider psychological, environmental, and biological factors, using the least medication necessary while supporting therapy and other tools. My goal is to deliver compassionate, evidence-based care that promotes growth. I understand how challenging it can be for teens and their families to navigate mental health or substance use issues, but there is a lot of reason to have hope. As part of the Evolve Adolescent Behavioral Health network, I am continually inspired by the resilience and potential of teenagers to grow and heal. Together, we can forge a path toward lasting change.
