About

Listen, Act, Transform

Effective counseling is all about connection. We seek to be understood, to be known, and to share life with someone else. Counseling provides a safe place to try out ways of connecting with another person, with ourselves, and with our world without fear of hurting others or our own reputation in the process. Research consistently suggests that the most important factor in a counseling experience is the relationship that develops between counselor and client. I have worked with CEOs, television producers, factory workers, pastors, and teachers for over 15 years, which means I am sure that we can work well together. Using a variety of techniques including DBT and CBT, my experience has helped me cultivate a strategy of tailoring counseling to each person; ultimately it is about what works for YOU! In our initial session and throughout the process I will take time to fully explain the methods and the expected results to help you feel comfortable with the process. The result: a strong rapport and connection that helps each client draw connections in themselves to help deepen connections with others to achieve greater joy and satisfaction in life.

Testimonials

“Arin is one of the best counselors I’ve worked with. There was no problem too small for me to discuss. He understood my problems, and supported me even when I didn’t believe in myself. He is a great counselor!”

Former Client - June 2021

“From the very first session I felt like Arin really understood me on a level I didn’t expect from a counselor. And for that reason, sessions felt like one epiphany after another.”

Former Client - June 2021
