Dr. Al Kaibzhanov LCSW

My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep curiosity about human connection and resilience, inspired by my own experiences and those of my community. Working in mental health since 2006, I saw firsthand how meaningful support can transform lives. This led me to private practice in 2009, where I’ve been honored to guide clients through their healing journeys ever since. Seeing people reclaim their strength and find hope continues to inspire me every day.

I take a collaborative and compassionate approach, meeting you where you are while gently challenging you to grow. I focus on creating a judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable exploring difficult emotions and experiences. I value transparency and will always tailor our work to align with your unique needs and goals.

Expect a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we’ll work to uncover insights, develop practical tools for coping and healing, and build a stronger connection to your authentic self. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling seen, empowered, and equipped to make meaningful changes in your life.

Since 2006, I’ve been deeply immersed in supporting individuals on their mental health journeys, working within hospital and community mental health teams. These experiences allowed me to develop a strong foundation in understanding complex mental health challenges and providing compassionate care in diverse settings. Since 2009, I’ve focused on private practice psychotherapy, where I’ve had the privilege of helping clients navigate life’s struggles, process trauma, and create meaningful change. Over the years, I’ve honed my expertise in trauma-focused therapies, somatic approaches, and relationship work, always tailoring my approach to each client’s unique needs and goals.
