Mischa Tursich PhD, LP

“I work together with each of my patients—helping those who struggle with chronic suicidal thoughts, non-suicidal self-injury, eating disorders, or other addictive or compulsive behaviors. I also work with people who have difficulty understanding and managing their emotions. I assess and treat people suffering from post traumatic stress disorder, dissociation and other consequences of traumatic events and early life adversity.”
