Compassionate Care for Every Mind

Individual Psychotherapy
Depression, loneliness, grief, anxiety, panic, trauma, stress, obsessions, compulsions, and relationship issues are problems everyone can face.

Clinical Hypnosis
In real life hypnosis is a practical skill you can learn, and the research shows it is an effective tool for making many changes.

Internal Family Systems
It was developed over the past twenty years. Unlike many conventional therapeutic approaches, it is a non-pathologizing approach to healing.

Cognitive Behavior Therapy
In every situation, we have certain thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, and assumptions. They determine how we feel in a given situation, which in turn impacts how we will act.

Client Feedback & Reviews
Dr. Khan has been a tremendous help in guiding me out of severe anxiety and depression. He worked with me using different methods to attack the root causes which were making my life unmanageable. I was in a state of feeling hopeless and joyless. Within months of meeting him I have returned to a healthy productive state of being.
