Yasmin Sadik
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, PA, EMDR
I became an LMFT to support children and adolescents, who I believe deserve the most support. I use attachment theory and other modalities, including EMDR, to teach them emotion regulation, improve their mood, and practice coping skills. Our children are one of the most vulnerable populations, and I recognize that. I can help our kids understand their identity, their thoughts, and emotions, and build something healthy with them.
