Lara Abrahamyan
CBT Psychotherapist
“I believe that mental health issues and psychological disorders are often phases—periods of crisis that can be survived and worked through. With support, they can lead to becoming more grounded, more self-aware, and more functional, both for ourselves and in relation to others. We are fortunate when help arrives at the moment we need it. Therapy offers a way to go through a crisis not alone, but together with someone who knows how to help. I approach every session with full professional responsibility, unwavering dedication, and an insistence on honest engagement. ”
