Hello.
I work with individuals
who know how to work
hard and who commit to
the work. I work with people
who are 18 and older,
psychologically minded,
and believe in the aphorism,
“There is always more.”
I'm Carmen Visan
MA, LMHC, CFRC
'
My understanding of mental health is profoundly influenced by a childhood spent in an old-world
country and its inherited spiritual framework of Orthodox Christianity. My education has spanned numerous disciplines, by choice. The practice of psychology, for me, is an art and a science, oftentimes highly intuitive, and always from the Hippocratic stance of, “First, do no harm.”
I consider humans to be highly complex and layered,
entities comprised of multiple identities which inform mental homeostasis and robustness. From this position, mental health is understood as the effortless, symbiotic functioning of all identities: spiritual, functional,
existential, relational.
I do not work with people who utilize psychotropics to manage psychological and behavioral symptoms. I do
work with people who are interested in phasing out medications so as to replace the simple chemistry of behavioral change with deep learning and reshaping
their relational paradigm.

Face your fears.
Struggle.
Persevere. Be free.
You have nothing to lose
and so much to gain.
