Buddhist counseling is likely to focus on the causes of mental distress and using self-knowledge to cope with your response to them. The mental health professionals listed below specialize in treating Buddhists.

Your religious faith is vital to you. You want a mental health professional who supports your beliefs and provides advice steeped in your faith.

Our defense mechanisms may be outdated for the times we are facing. We are all in "Anticipatory Grief", which can trigger atypical grief/trauma responses. Using 30 years of experience in Disaster Mental Health and Trauma work h...
