Alex J. Russan, AMFT (136810) Psychotherapy

Creating a space for you to explore is my goal as a therapist: to facilitate a process through which you can develop a more interconnected understanding of the different parts of your life and self. Such explorations can have the effect of shifting one's relationship to difficult emotions, and the increased awareness one gains can ultimately lead to seeing more choices about how to live one’s life. These choices may have been there all along, just difficult or impossible to see; it’s hardest to turn the lens to one’s self.

What does this look like? A conversation. A space for you to talk about anything you want.  As we work together, we'll identify themes, patterns and early experiences that are leading to the issues you’d like to work on, noticing the many—often surprising—places their effects show up and can covertly guide your day-to-day life. The work is spontaneous, creative, collaborative and always unique.  

I work with adults, seniors, adolescents and couples from diverse backgrounds, who experience a wide range of symptoms, but who, at the end of the day, usually feel stuck for one reason or another and would like a better relationship in love, family, work, play or with themselves.
