Su Fern Khoo, M.S, LMFT

My work as a therapist is focused on accompanying individuals (18 years+) and couples through their struggles with life transitions, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and unprocessed trauma or difficult childhood experiences. My aim is for clients to take the change they experience in session out into their daily lives. By deepening in self-knowledge and mindful living, we become more able to choose instead of react to the circumstance life delivers to each of us at a given time. The result of living this way often unfolds in ways that most benefit us and those around us. Because I know that feeling heard, seen, and connected to someone you trust in a safe and protected space is essential for the process of healing, I meet you where you are. Together we will work towards finding new direction and healthy long-lasting change. With a warm, person-centered approach and a psychodynamic, humanistic, existential, and attachment-oriented lens, I collaboratively explore the origins of difficult issues and offer coping skills toward the healthy management of emotions and life’s stressors. Additionally, I offer a Jungian-informed analysis of symbols and archetypes through sandplay, dreams, and active imagination. These tools can help you better understand your sense of self and nurture its emergence through profound personal growth and transformation. "Sandplay provides a medium through which deep inner healing can occur, as it taps into the creative and symbolic processes of the mind." – Dora Kalff *Services provided in English or Spanish
