Buddhists believe that meditation, spirituality, good deeds, and positive behavior can help a person achieve enlightenment. 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. All Counseling’s goal is to connect the hurting to the healers, and we understand your desire to strengthen your faith and mental health simultaneously.

Am I doing it right? I feel like I should be happier. That’s why I studied so hard, got that degree, put in those extra hours at the office. But I’m not. Most days, I feel like an imposter.

Maybe I didn’t pick the right career. But w...

The result can be alienation, grief, substance use issues, depression, anxie...

You feel broken down from the painful memories that haunt you and the flashbacks that have you frozen in time, not knowing why you can't move on. You struggle to find the motivation to get out of bed. You keep it all to yourself because no one...
