Meet Shushanik
My therapy style is centered around creating a safe and nurturing space where you can comfortably explore your inner world. I am committed to supporting you in befriending the parts of yourself that you find challenging to accept. With a deep passion for helping individuals integrate their struggles into a persona of strength and resilience, I strive to empower you on your healing journey. Throughout my 9 years as a clinical therapist, I have incorporated trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches into my practice. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness-based Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and body-based interventions. By drawing from these modalities, I provide a holistic healing approach. I approach therapy with a lens of attachment and family systems, recognizing that we are influenced by our culture, environment, and experiences. I firmly believe in the inherent strength and resilience within each individual and my role is to offer guidance and support as we uncover your inner resources. Together, we will identify and process the stressors in your life, develop practical coping skills, and foster a sense of empowerment and self-discovery.
I strive to empower you on your healing journey.
