We enter psychotherapy for a wide variety of reasons: The death or loss of a loved one, illness, job loss, divorce, addiction, etc., but all of us seek help because we are trying to find a better way to deal with the reality we are facing. My job as a psychotherapist is to help you talk about your emotions and reactions in a safe environment, figure out where these emotions and reactions are coming from, observe whether your reactions produce the desired outcomes and, discover new ways to react, if that would produce more desirable outcomes

I'll bring to our work my life experience with career transitions, as well as with parenting, bi-cultural families and issues of identity.
Do you feel stuck, anxious, or unfulfilled? Although many of us learn to avoid pain, few of us learn the road to more lasting relief. Therapy is a powerful way to bring clarity to your inner thoughts, feelings and hopes as you actualize a more peaceful and purposeful life. I work with people seeking to move into healthy relationships, anyone seeking to effect change, and people overwhelmed by maladaptive patterns in their lives. Drawing from my training and experience, we'll devise a unique plan to develop strategies toward achieving your goals.

I have over 12 years of experience as a Registered Psychotherapist with adolescents and adults, collaboratively working through issues that impede personal, relational, academic, and career growth.
Anxiety (be it social, panic, situational, or generalized) can be a beast and is largely at the forefront of my practice. Its impact on our relationships, physical/mental well-being, moods, self-worth, and how we approach milestones/life transitions can lead us astray from the life we want to be living. Therapy helps us dial down the volume of anxiety. In therapy, you're provided a rare opportunity to relax and focus on yourself without judgment or competing narratives. Your difficulties. Your successes. Your goals. You decide where your therapeutic journey goes. I welcome the opportunity to be a part of that journey.

It's my job to 'get' you! As I evolve, I continue to apply my learning and experience in all areas of my life i.
Whether we identify as male, female, transgendered, non-binary, mother, father, or other, I know one thing for sure; we are humans playing a part in this game of life. We all practice being human, unconsciously and/or consciously. We all experience life's most difficult trials and troubles and yes, we also experience joy. This is immutable. Given this reality, how can we live our life optimally, rich with purpose and fulfillment while balancing the curve balls, the numbness, the stress, the cravings, or the hurt? The truth is, you can do it. We can do it together. Sometimes all you need is a patient helping hand.

Practice owner Vivian Nho has specialized knowledge and experience supporting those with mood disorders, ADHD, low self-esteem, complex trauma, narcissistic abuse, relational issues, addiction and concurrent disorders, career changes, women’s issues, cultural issues, spirituality issues, grief and loss.
Does it ever blow your mind that you came into existence as a human? The enormity and perplexity of consciousness is hard to bear. Accepting the duality of reality generally feels impossible. The majority of life seems dull and plagued by a constant gnawing pressure to do more, be more, acquire more. But that void inside us remains. It gapes with loss. Identities become blurry. We question who we are, why we do things, or whether there is any point to keep going. If these words strike a chord with you, let’ s talk! I aim to inspire hope and clarity through a HIP style of psychotherapy - humanistic, integrative and progressive.

Modern life is challenging. Perhaps you feel anxiety about your career, relationship, health, education, or the state of the world. Perhaps you are overwhelmed by how busy you are or how much others rely on you, leaving no time or capacity to pursue your own goals and desires. Or perhaps you are experiencing depression, loneliness, powerlessness, or a general dissatisfaction with life. Whatever challenges you face, the right therapist can act as a dedicated co-navigator by your side to chart your path forward. I would love the opportunity to play that role for you.

I have a business background as a senior executive, and I enjoyed the growth and accomplishment that I experienced in my first career;.
I believe that each of us wants to be his or her "best self" every day, but at times in our lives that may be difficult to do. Sometimes this is because of troubling interpersonal relationships or patterns that we ourselves participate in but are unaware of. Developing awareness of these patterns, with a view to personal change and growth, is key to enhancing day-to-day life. We will work together to think about how to reframe your experiences and help you to achieve the necessary shifts toward the life that you wish to live.

When we strive to be independent and responsible, it can feel natural to dismiss and intellectualize our emotions. We become skilled in managing the feelings of others, while minimizing our own. We may understand what's causing us pain, but feel overwhelmed and stuck about taking action. I offer non-judgemental space for individuals and couples to explore these experiences with nuance and compassion. My areas of focus include ADHD, relationships, perfectionism, anxiety, grief, career concerns and racial identity. Together, we'll cultivate resilience and self-awareness, moving you towards where you want to be.
