Solaman Yousuf, MA

Solaman is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst in training. He specializes in treating anxiety, depression, panic disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), narcissistic and borderline personality disorders, psychotic experiences, trauma, addiction, relational difficulties, performance challenges, creative blocks, and sexual concerns. He integrates rational-emotive-behavioral, humanistic-existential-transpersonal, and psychoanalytic modalities to provide clients with a comprehensive and individualized therapeutic approach. Through graduate studies in philosophy, he was able to explore the depths of consciousness and understand what it means to be a human person. Solaman views therapy as a way to become who one truly is. It involves taking responsibility for one’s own existence and transforming suffering into psychological strength. Resistance, struggle, and hardship, are necessary conditions for self-development. Solaman’s approach involves creating space for clients to explore their unique capacities for knowledge, love, and work, in ways that open up new possibilities for self-understanding and self-expression.
