I am Sayun Scotton, Marriage and Family Therapist and I can help:
I take a whole-person, holistic approach when facilitating psychotherapy and encourage clients to consider a bigger, more compassionate vision of their lives. It is my belief that transformation and healing ultimately rest within us all. Therapy is about unhooking yourself from suffering and reclaiming peace and wholeness inherent to being human. What parts are you moved to explore in your experience? What is calling for change and acceptance in your life?
I work primarily with individuals and couples to explore the complexities of their relationships with themselves and their significant others. My intention is to help you make sense of your personal and relationship challenges. I will facilitate you to define your struggle, understand your patterns, recognize alternatives, and improve your capacity to grow with greater self-awareness and self-agency.
I also work with trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, concerns around developmental life transitions, as well as the issues surrounding a cultural adjustment process. While change is often an opportunity for significant personal growth, it is not uncommon to feel overwhelmed by the internal and external pressures that arise when adjusting to stressors and losses. I provide a supportive and collaborative space in which to explore your thoughts, feelings and questions that arise around transitions.
I do not presume to have the answers or know what is right for you. My job is to help you understand yourself as deeply as possible, so that we can work together to help you live and embrace your relationship with yourself and others in a way that is healthy, vibrant and meaningful for you.
My client-centered approach to facilitating psychotherapy integrates aspects of insight/depth-oriented, cognitive, cross-cultural, body-mind (somatic), and relational psychotherapy.
