My Approach to Therapy

Sick and tired of feeling stuck, anxious, and unhappy? You're not alone. My name is Atim and I specialize in helping couples and families who are struggling with these same issues. My clients typically feel overwhelmed and unsure of how to move forward when they first come to me. I work with LGBTQIA+ couples, blended families, parents of children with ADHD, individuals recovering from trauma, and more. Through my unique approach, I help clients get to their unique goals, which often include things like less fighting, improved self-esteem, better relationships, more peaceful family dynamics and a more fulfilling life. My approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and a deep understanding of the relationships between people. Let's get started with making reach changes today.

My Practice & Services

While experiencing crisis and distress, it can be difficult for families to stay connected. I help parents stay connected to their teens, and help the teens move through these difficult years with more ease and self esteem. I believe that families can heal and stay connected with the right approach and resources. I help families learn how to advocate for themselves by finding their voice and setting boundaries. If you’re looking for support strengthening your family’s connection through compassion and healing, I can help you reach your goal. Reach out to get started feeling better sooner!
