CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW INDIVIDUAL CLIENTS...Everyone is on a journey of personal development; making meaning of their lives and experiences. I consider people to be the experts in their lives, who, when supported, are able to follow their natural drive for self-actualization. All human experiences are a valuable part of the process of self-emergence. Even the greatest challenges can offer insight and fuel for a path forward. I seek to draw out clients' strengths and support the cultivation of their inner guide. People are neither sick nor well. Rather, we are all in process, with personal depths that want for exploration.

I enjoy working with individuals looking for short or longer term therapy. I strive to work collaboratively with you to understand the issue that you bring to therapy, to explore any meanings attached to the issue and to work together to find some resolution. I find it is helpful to start with developing compassion towards yourself and your present life situation as I believe empathy for yourself will grow as well as towards others.

Our work together can help release stuck patterns, expand mutual understanding, and increase trust and connection between you and those you care about most. Challenges with mood, transitions in life and emotional struggles often present side by side to relational hurts. www.michaeldangelotherapy.com Clients: - -Couples, polycules, open relationships, adults (18-80’s). - -Children, teens, adolescents ages 12–18 with adult caregivers (w/ legal documentation from guardianship, no drop offs). - -Blended families, families in transitions. - -LGBTQ+ Gender ID Journeys. - -Grief Journeys. - -Clients of Faiths, Beliefs - Spirituality.

Hi, my name is Elisa, I am a California native, and Licensed as a Social Worker in California, Oregon, and Washington State. I work with individuals and couples. Do you isolate, feel misunderstood, or have difficult connecting to others? Have you been told you are "too sensitive", "too intense", or "too intense"? Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try - you can't catch a break? Do you want to hide parts of yourself? Do you want to build more connection in your relationship? You are not alone. Often times our old wounds and experiences get in the way of living. Contact me if you are ready for a fresh start.

I work with a combination of somatic awareness, analysis, creativity, and deep, honest conversation in my work with clients. I have been sitting with folks for over 15 years and have learned so much in that time through my work, and as the field of therapy and counseling has continued to evolve and grow. My client sessions are involved interactions, where I ask questions, give feedback, and encourage that magic combination of accountability and grace with yourself and others. We live in a larger context and system, and an understanding of that system and your place in it will also inform our work at all times.

As an immigrant from Hong Kong and child of immigrants, Vivien understands the pain of feeling stuck and not knowing where to start, when there is so much you want to achieve – whether it’s developing more rewarding relationships, making academic and career progression, healing from complex trauma, or gaining a sense of calm, confidence, and fulfillment as you navigate life in a complicated world.

Please contact me for availability and find more info at robinbagai.com. My approach is to help build greater capacity for living life fully in these strange times. I offer respectful engagement with your circumstances and inner reality. I don't rush toward quick solutions, instead allowing your own pace unfold. I'm one who would gravitate toward your pain, rather than deflect or minimize it. Therapy is partly about engaging emotional suffering with the possibility of transforming it. It is also about growth of life and self. I aim for an appreciative understanding of each unique human being through collaborative goodwill efforts.

We can sometimes feel uncertain and trapped by painful emotions. Having a non-judgmental, supportive space to think through what feels wrong can be helpful. We are able to make new meaning when someone listens, helps us focus in on what is important, understands our challenges, and supports us to grasp more of who we really are. We begin to understand our own stories and shed new light on older, outdated narratives. We untangle from the repetitive pain we impose on our selves, family, partners, friends, and begin to take charge of our lives.

*Accepting New Clients* I help my clients recognize and work through their traumas, patterns, and blocks. They learn that deep within there is a truth that is yearning for recognition. At some level they are aware that this truth maps the path and purpose of their lives. We'll work together to find new paths of success and personal power. I reflect to them the wisdom and talents they hold within so that they may begin to own that identity and build confidence in becoming who they really are.
