Meet Charles Pilavian, Psy.D., the founder of the Ataraxic Mind since 2016.
The Ataraxic Mind has served several people at different stages in their lives since 2016. The operational model of the Ataraxic Mind is simple and based on one-on-one direct contact from the first telephone call through the establishment of treatment or assessment goals until those goals are attained. It is just like the old days, a sense of human touch and direct interaction.
Areas of Specialization:
My services include psychological treatment and comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological evaluations. I have been in practice for 34 years on three different continents. I speak Armenian, Arabic, Norwegian, and English. I evaluate and treat 16 years and older.
Psychological Treatment:
Anxiety and phobic fears, depression and affect regulation, psychological trauma, sleep disorder, grief and loss, dissociative disorders, and processing unresolved psychological problems that are contributory to physical symptoms (somatization).
