Anxiety Therapists in 95401

Life threatening experiences sometimes affect us long after the danger has passed. If you find yourself moving through the world in fear, avoiding situations that remind you, even remotely, of the past, EMDR can help. EMDR addresses the cycle of triggering and avoidance that can be so painful and disruptive. The typical course of EMDR is 1-10 sessions. It may sound unlikely that such powerful memories can soften and lose their hold in just a few sessions. But that is what you can expect from EMDR. It is why EMDR is the treatment of choice for PTSD.

We are each complex beings made up of many integral parts. My focus is to help you find wellness and strive towards inner peace and wholeness in the way that works best for you. Integrative Psychotherapy is a holistic treatment approach that combines elements from different schools of psychotherapy to address your specific needs and help you find internal harmony and a greater sense of wellbeing. As we get to know each other and what might work best for you, it can be tailored to best fit your needs, personality, and goals for your life.

I am a Licensed Psychologist with more than 30 years of experience working with adults and adolescents. I specialize in trauma-informed brain and body focused psychological treatment, as well as life coaching. In addition to traditional talk psychotherapy and life coaching, I use Brainspotting as a particular method to help clients heal from trauma, improve performance, and expand health and creativity.

I always begin with careful listening to your needs. Our relationship, and your understanding of yourself, are the keystones. These are much more important than the labels which have been placed on your problem. You may have already received "good advice" from friends and family. A trained and caring professional can help move you beyond the cycles you are stuck in. This is true whether you are seeking couple's counseling or individual therapy. My primary therapeutic perspective is Internal Family Systems (IFS), which is not about external family, but rather your internal family of parts.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with a passion for evidence-based and heart-centered work that makes a real difference in the lives of individuals that I see. Due to my specialized training and unique skill set, I am well-equipped to serve adults and adolescents struggling with symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Acute Stress Disorder, Depression, and Anxiety. In my work, I focus on short-term, solutions-focused strategies in order to hone in on what concrete changes you can enact in your life immediately; allowing you to quickly experience the benefits from the time and energy you have invested into therapy.

Whatever has brought you here, I've no doubt it's an opportunity to create something better. I can help you release old, painful patterns that go nowhere, so you can create the life you want. If you're on your knees in transition, grief and loss, I can support you through it. I'm an enthusiastic catalyst for you to be a game changer in your own life! You can rely on my 35 plus years of experience and will find me interactive, compassionate and generous with clear, inspiring feedback. We'll work as collaborators for your best evolution.

Do you want a more gratifying relationship? I work with couples to help them shift out of adversarial, polarized and/or disconnected states into more supportive, collaborative and connected experiences in relationship. Do you want a more fulfilling existence - one in which you feel freer, more empowered, more self-aligned? I work with individuals to help them more effectively address internal obstacles that interfere with greater vitality and well-being. Are you a parent simply looking for support to better deal with parenting challenges? I work with parents to develop helpful ways of nurturing their child's healthy development.

At certain times in our lives, we become aware of uncomfortable feelings, and it may begin effecting our mood, sleep, relationships and general well being. We are living under very difficult and unusual circumstances that make life really hard sometimes. I can offer you a comfortable space to simply talk about what is bothering you. Together, we can explore what is happening in your life, and ways to work through the difficulties that are keeping you from the happiness you so richly deserve. I work with adults, always doing my best to provide all of my expertise in understandable, and helpful ways.

Are you getting the love and respect that you deserve? Are you suffering from low self esteem which is reflected in your inability to have a nurturing, loving relationship? Do you wish you could stop repeating the same patterns in spite of all the work you have done on yourself? Do you wish you were stronger and more resilient? Would you like to develop the capacity to experience more joy and wellbeing?

I have had many years of experience dealing with trauma, including treatment of Complex and Developmental Stress. I am comfortable with both men and women, dealing with issues ranging from life transition, divorce, narcissistic parents and spouses, addiction and codependency. We will discuss self-limiting beliefs and behaviors affecting your mind, body, and soul.

You want to feel confident and centered when anxiety, depression and relationship issues come up, but you struggle with what to do. You may be feeling overwhelmed, fed up, exhausted, self critical, untethered due to conflict, or afraid of disappointing people you care about. You’re ready to learn how to settle the storm of emotions and enjoy deep relationships without patterns from your past getting in the way. You’re ready to stop feeling like you have to shrink down or shut down and instead feel secure and comfortable in who you are and how you connect to the people you love.

In the current times, with some much going on and so much to think about, we might need to unload and process. I would like to make myself available to individuals who are facing an overwhelm of emotions, thoughts, of feelings, with the hope of helping them find resources to cope and succeed. I like to work with individuals who recognize that their lives could be better if something were different. My approach allows for time-limited therapy. On session 1, I discuss with my clients the length of time that they might have available to offer to the therapeutic process, short and long term goals that they would like to achieve.

Life can push us beyond our capacity to manage well. Therapy is a vehicle that can help you find healing and balance. I work with the whole of you. I nurture your spirituality which I believe is the root source of healing. As you more fully embody your integrated self, anxiety and depression can subside. A feeling of well-being arises, you become more open and can engage more authentically in your relationships. I embrace non-dual philosophy affirming our interdependence with the unified field which, when attuned to, naturally generates a deep sense of connectedness. Our work together can bring you to a new paradigm of living.

I work exclusively with couples as well as individuals seeking treatment for PSTD. I offer couples a complete assessment of their relationship using Gottman assessments and evidence based tools to move their relationship in the direction they want. In regards to PTSD treatment, I use bilateral stimulation using a lightbar to help individuals process trauma. I am trained in EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy, both modalities are evidence based and effective in the treatment of trauma. We will work together to identify the best interventions for you.

Sexual issues can - and do - happen to anyone. Perhaps there is an aspect of your sexuality that is confusing to you; perhaps you struggle to experience the pleasure of sexuality and eroticism; perhaps you or your partner have a sexual dysfunction like painful intercourse or erectile dysfunction; perhaps you are in a low sex/no sex relationship; or perhaps you're reeling from learning of your partner's betrayal. In our shame-based culture, these are difficult issues to talk about. I am here to help. After all, everyone has the right to a healthy and happy sex life.
