After my mom died, and the trauma with how she died, I had no idea what to do moving forward so I turned to better help and found Haig as my therapist. I’ve tried therapy before but never have I gotten as much use out of it as I have with Haig, he helped me with my grief and really understood everything going on in my life. Without my sessions with him I’m not sure where my head would be at, but I’ve learned and processed so much through our sessions it was phenomenal and all I can say is thank you. He really has his experience and knew how to read my emotions. I have a to step away from therapy for a bit but when I come back I want to make sure I get him as my therapist again!

More about me
Licensing: M.A., LMFT Years in Practice: 15 State: California
My Master’s degree courses were taken at night with adults who were in the mental health field. In many cases, the Professors were Psychologists and therapists in private practice or working for agencies. Consequently, the course work was replete with real world case studies and experiences of other classmates and Professors.
My internship was with Jewish Family Services and afforded me the opportunity to provide therapy to a unique population with values that in some ways were quite different from American society at large. Following my graduation, I was given a profound opportunity to work with homeless seniors for about 7 years. During this tenure, I obtained real world experience with a sector of our society that gets a lot of media attention but little assistance. It provided me with an education I could not have purchased at any price.
I currently work with seniors, many of whom are beset with end-of-life medical conditions that would provide cognitive, emotional, and behavioral challenges to almost anyone. My therapy style is to obtain a deep understanding of an individual; their upbringing and life experiences, so as to contextualize their current mental health condition. Accordingly, I rely primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which seeks to provide clarity of the dynamics among Thought/Emotion/Behavior. As the situation warrants, I may utilize the Motivational Interviewing and Reminiscent therapy models as well
About online counseling
Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
