IMAN SANDBERG’S APPROACH TO THERAPY
My therapeutic approach is built upon a foundation of respect, kindness, and profound empathy. I am dedicated to creating a supportive space where your voice is heard and your priorities are honored. I take genuine interest in understanding the entirety of your experience – your passions, dreams, and even the seemingly small details that shape your unique identity. To enhance our collaborative process, I often incorporate expressive arts including music, visual arts, and mindful movement practices such as deep breathing and yoga, fostering new avenues for insight and growth.
Our work together will focus on identifying what matters most to you and your family, developing effective coping strategies, and establishing actionable steps toward your objectives. I am passionate about helping you feel empowered to navigate challenges and enhance daily quality of life. I am here to offer guidance and encouragement with humility and care. Whether you are grappling with a lack of motivation, feelings of hopelessness, or anxiety, I am committed to providing a source of peace, clarity, and unwavering support.
