I've had my share of individual, couples, and family therapy, and Adrian is one of the best couples…read morecounselors I've had. My new wife and I were lucky to find Adrian, before we got married, to work on communication and conflict resolution. Adrian is an incredible coach: thoughtful, kind, observant, and knowledgeable. Unlike previous marriage counseling experiences, Adrian focuses on a communication process (Imago). Using Imago, he teaches and guides us to resolve conflict, helping us build trust and deep connection. Adrian has guided my wife and me through the Imago process to the point where we can have conversations we'd previously melt down around. More and more, and with Adrian's guidance, we've been able to create safe spaces for each other to help each of us grow, and in the process, we grow so much closer. It's amazing. I've always disliked trying to find a new counselor/therapist. It can be hard to find someone who is great at what they do -and- is a good fit for me as an individual or as part of a couple. Adrian is a gem, and I'm incredibly grateful we chose him out of the list of local therapists. I highly recommend Adrian for couples counseling.

Life is hard! - A lot of healing comes just from being understood. We are all important, even if we don’t always feel that way. So being seen, accepted for who we are, can create the space for us to get clarity, understand, accept, and make choices that lead us to a better path. - For many of us this isn’t quite enough. We need a better, more in depth way of healing that gets to deeper roots - that changes the impact on us of our past, sometimes traumatic experiences. - Enter EMDR therapy. It’s an approach to seeing how we get stuck with negative views about ourselves or the world (I’m not safe. I’m not good enough, and so on). And it’s a way of helping our own brain process past experiences in such a way that they no longer affect us. We use it for trauma and PTSD, but I find it invaluable for a variety of problems, ranging from anxiety to low self-esteem. - Couples Therapy: As a therapist, I help you really listen to each other and feel heard by each other, while also accessing the loving feelings and appreciation that brought you together in the first place. Once we get that going for you in our meetings, I’ll invite you to try it at home, increasingly, ‘till we all know you’ve got this. My goal, like any good therapist, is to get myself out of a job as quickly, but as solidly as possible, so when we’re done it’ll be a happy, successful good-bye.

I can't say enough good things about Melissa. She is an amazing therapist.

The ONLY small complaint I can make about my experience there, were a few small slips in communications between Liffey and my family. Again I thank you all for what you did for me!

We have done different treatments in the past but had never experienced this level of wholesome care. I can literally feel tightness in my body leave as I continue to sort out things we spoke of during our session and I can't wait for our next session today. For context, I brought my dad in as he's had shoulder pain for two years now due to medical negligence and doctors don't offer much other than quick fixes. So here I am, bringing my dad in for pain management not knowing I was also signing up for treatment of the mind and soul, a much needed family therapy. My dad walked out moving his arm and I walked out being able to talk about things that needed to be talked about. As I continue to sort things out in my mind and putting them on paper, I can feel tightness in my body melting down. I can't wait for our next session. Thank you Sundar!!!

I couldn't ask more from a dietitian than what Sara has given me. She is incredibly knowledgeable,…read morepersonable, and adaptive to my circumstances. I met Sara through Cielo House, an eating disorder treatment center in San Jose, but am continuing working with her through her private practice. From the get-go Sara was fantastic about getting to know me holistically and not just from a diet standpoint, with the idea that all aspects of one's life influence their wellness and relationship with food. Her knowledge about health, medicine, etc. is surprisingly vast, and I feel very comfortable under her care. I was very surprised with how well Sara adapts advice or plans specifically to my circumstances. I'm a competitive athlete and she was able to balance my fueling needs perfectly with more typical approaches to developing intuitive eating. Through her, I've learned how to adapt my intake in various circumstances or training scenarios. Although she let me know right away that she is not a sports nutritionist, she knows her stuff so well that I don't feel like I'm missing anything. If you have questions about proper diet, want to lose weight from a longer-lasting, non-diet approach, or especially if you're recovering from an eating disorder, I'd highly highly HIGHLY recommend Sara Leung.
