Derek Shin

Description

Over the past 25 years the most common reasons people come to see me are: Stress, Anxiety, Anger, Depression, Trauma, and Addictions. I work with individuals, as well as Small Groups.

Every therapeutic tool I use in our work together is something I use in my daily life so I can be at my best as a Father, Husband, Son, Brother, Friend, and Community Member. My approach to our work together is that of a collaboration between adults seeking to understand the best path for your Health and Happiness.

Summary

My work is based on a Humanistic approach where I view all of us as human beings attempting to survive in a sometimes chaotic and threatening world. A Mindfulness approach is used to help you gain an awareness to your specific coping strategies and how you can expand on them to live a healthy and fulfilling life.
