Shanthi Guruswamy, AMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Do you ever feel stuck? That's okay, a lot of us do. Sometimes the hardest thing for a person to do is to face what keeps us...there. Maybe there is your anxiety, depression, or self-esteem. Maybe it's navigating grief and loss, relationship dynamics, or your gender/sexual identity. Maybe you're going through life transitions, surviving with trauma, or dealing with anger. Maybe it's just that you need to build healthier habits, to commit to it and stick to it. It's hard to face it alone. It's hard to even know where to start. It's almost like envisioning a half-solved puzzle, with most of the pieces scattered around, some flipped upside-down. How can we piece everything together into a coherent picture? How can we make sense of our everyday experiences as compared to the bigger context of our lives? It's easy to get bogged down in the details of life. It's easy to stay within our comfort zones. It's hard to make change. But the first step is seeking help. My goal is to provide holistic care to you or your child in order to feel empowered and motivated to take control of your life. To get un-stuck. The provider is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and is currently working under the supervision of a licensed practitioner. Their current employer is Remarkable Services.
