Satori is a Japanese Zen Buddhist term that refers to "sudden awakening" or "enlightenment." It represents a moment of deep insight and clarity, where one gains a new understanding of themselves and the world around them.
At Satori Psychology, we believe that these moments of awareness form a vital foundation for growth and healing. We are passionate about using evidence-based treatments to guide individuals toward greater self-understanding, resilience, and well-being. Our mission extends beyond individual therapy—we strive to cultivate a more self-aware and connected community, where people can make sense of life’s challenges, connect the dots, and move toward a more fulfilling, meaningful existence.
Our therapeutic approach is rooted in evidence-based practice, integrating a range of modalities, including:
✔ Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
✔ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
✔ Dialectical Behavior therapy (DBT)
✔ Schema Therapy
✔ Trauma-Informed Therapy
✔ Attachment Theory
✔ Mindfulness-Based Interventions
✔ Motivational Interviewing
By tailoring therapy to each individual’s unique needs, we aim to create a supportive space for exploration, healing, and personal growth.
