Nonish Xiong, PsyD Adults
Professional Statement
My theoretical orientation is simple. Therapy is focused on changing or rearranging the SELF (the mind) first and trusting the rest will follow. Beliefs (Cognition) are key to any form of change, and this new change is directed toward further awareness. Therefore, I will teach you to become aware of your inner-mind experiences. Psychoeducate you to utilize change-talk to intentionally prime the mind to help facilitate change in your emotional states and how to access your environment to incorporate new behaviors to begin breaking unhealthy patterns/habits in present-moment resistance. With over 11 years of experience in the helping profession, including 3 years of postdoctoral experience as well as 5 years as a Licensed Psychologist, I believe I am well suited to assist you in finding your way out of your current emotional discomfort.
