Dr. Mimi Almaz West, LGPC, CRC
Individual Specialist
Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor
Welcome to our practice. I’m Dr. Mimi West, one of the specialists who works with individuals and couples at the practice. Now more than ever there’s a need for specialized support around navigating work, societal or cultural stressors. I help clients reduce and eliminate anxiety and depression, and manage life and relationship challenges with ease. I also help clients who are experiencing low self-esteem, identity issues, and the negative effects of unresolved trauma. If you're facing challenges in any of these areas, I'm your person.
​
One of my strengths is creating an environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe in taking thorough history in light of the profound impact that past experiences can have on your present life. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, family systems theory, and other clinically validated therapy models to meet your unique needs.
In our work together, we will:
Establish goals
Foster greater self-awareness
Develop coping strategies for managing stress, anxiety, depression, and grief.
Improve emotional regulation
Address unresolved trauma
Enhance communication skills
Establish healthy boundaries
Strengthen or heal meaningful relationships
I am passionate about helping you achieve measurable results that will transform your life. Starting therapy is an investment you won’t regret. Let me help you reap the benefits.
