Parisa Frost
Marriage & Family Therapist Associate | Claimed

My approach lies at the crux of transparency, creativity, and compassion so that I may assist couples and individuals with bringing greater understanding to their identities, relationships, and sexual issues. Through this understanding, I seek to create a colorful and reflective space to untangle these issues and explore unforseen avenues for communication and personal betterment. Together we will navigate any negative patterns and relational dynamics from a place of clarity, compassion, and curiosity - instead of criticism. I take a collaborative approach with my clients in order to effectively unpack and understand your story from a growth mindset that is sustainable + strength-based! I believe that different personal, relational, and sexual adversities call for different strategic approaches; under the scope of my specialization in identity-affirming therapy, trauma, and relationship + sex counseling , I tend to utilize a mixture of Integrative Psychotherapies (EMDR, DBT, ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused talk therapy, with a liberal use of mindfulness & somatic techniques. When words fall short, I also utilize my formal training in Art Therapy & EMDR to offer a fresh and multidimensional perspective on personal traumas, relationships, and self-concepts.When it comes to navigating personal traumas & intimate relationships. There is no black and white, right or wrong, yes or no... There is only a world of gray -- ll meet you there
