Chetram Balram

Congratulations on taking a brave step towards your healing. I am here to help you overcome life's challenges and live a fuller, happier and more fulfilling life. My style is to work with you collaboratively to identify your goals and empower you to achieve them. I have helped client decrease and overcome anxiety, depression, substance use, PTSD and together, we can look at your life's story and rewrite your narrative to increase your sense of self-confidence, happiness, love and joy in life.

My approach to therapy is client-centered and collaborative, which means I bring to this work a strong appreciation for the uniqueness of each person, as together we work towards healing and growth. I am trained in several models, including: Cognitive- Behavioral; Solution-Focused; Narrative; Dialectical Behavioral and Mindfulness.

My goal as a therapist is to provide you the space to explore your thoughts and feelings and resolve your difficulties in a safe and supportive environment. The first few sessions focus on gathering information and proving psycho-education. From each session, clients can take away a sense of being understood, feelings of hope and increased self-awareness.
