Professional statement
Dr. Amee Dassani is a Clinical Psychologist who has over ten years of experience working with adults, adolescents, and children dealing with anxiety, depression, and trauma. Her expertise includes mindfulness, meditation, visual imagery, sensing to relieve stuck trauma, and energy healing techniques for sustained healing and growth. These types of therapies have worked also well with those coping with chronic pain and illness.
Dr. Dassani utilizes an integrative treatment approach that draws from Energy Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Mindfulness, and Psychodynamic Therapy. During the first few sessions, she gathers information in regards to a client’s family relationships and background. What are the areas that they feel stuck in? In addition, she will examine some of their core beliefs and how these have impacted them. She also works with individuals to understand their life problems and what factors of their lives contribute to these issues, which seem ongoing. This information will guide the process of therapy, and she will offer strategies to give her clients some relief.
Dr. Dassani is very open and non-judgmental. She strives to make her clients as comfortable as possible during the therapeutic process. Her intention is for everyone who walks through her door to live to their highest potential. She looks forward to meeting you.
