About Ari Max Bachrach
MS, NP, PMHNP
My love of psychotherapy is rooted in deep belief of the transformative potential of individuals to heal, grow, and realize their most healthy and happy selves, and in turn to have greater capacity and freedom to change our communities and society. As a nurse practitioner I aim to work with you towards that goal. In much the same way that we are shaped by our early relationships, environment, and experiences, healing too happens in relationship. In an attuned therapeutic relationship, we are able to have different experiences and develop a greater sense of authenticity and connection to ourselves and the world around us.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am trained to alleviate individuals psychiatric symptoms with treatments including psychotherapy and/or psychopharmacology. Sometimes psychiatric medications are helpful and necessary to provide symptom relief and support the healing work of psychotherapy.
My approach is grounded in a relational, harm reduction, social justice perspective that recognizes the impact of individual and collective trauma, in addition to the belief that who you are is a creative and resourceful response to your life experiences.
