Do you want to explore your neurodivergent identity or suspect you are autistic? Did you experience times in your life where you felt invalidated for who you are or misunderstood? Do you sometimes feel unable to connect with others? Do you experience difficulties navigating life? I specialize in working with clients who have experienced painful messages about themselves and trauma, and are working towards finding balance in their lives. I enjoy working with the LGBTQI+ community and neurodivergent community to help boost self-esteem, build relationships and increase self-advocacy. I offer individual and group therapy online.

I am a Certified EFT Couples Therapist. My passion is helping couples + individuals understand the cycle of conflict that’s keeping them stuck in disconnection, frustration, + unhappiness + teach new ways to interact with each other - ways that lead to connection, emotional safety, belonging, trust, + love. Whether you’re single or partnered, seeking love or struggling in a relationship, I can help. I'm not a sit-back-and-say-nothing therapist. I want to see you get the results you want, + I will help you do that in an active, loving + direct way, so you can have a different kind of conversation than you’ve been able to have before.

Ceccily Bednash MA LMFT ATR is the Founder of the Creative Wellness Institute which provides talk therapy, art therapy, coaching services, art programming, training and workshops. The Creative Wellness Institute was founded on the principle that human beings are innately creative. Therefore, we need a creative approach to understanding our inner world in order to live our best life possible. By using our capacity for creative expression as a means for understanding ourselves and the world around us we can evolve into the highest versions of ourselves and live a happy and fulfilling life.

There are many reasons you may be seeking therapy: you may want help with a specific issue (divorce, loss, depression, anxiety), you may not be exactly sure why you want help other than a vague sense that things aren't right, or you may be experiencing discontent, anxiety or depression even though you function at a high level and are living a "good" life.

You deserve to feel safe, connected, and understood and have deserved this for a very long time. It hurts when you think about that that you sought connection and comfort from someone important in your life, but did not get what you needed. It can be hard to describe the impacts of these experiences or the toll it took on you to grow up with important needs unmet. If this description speaks to you then you may benefit from healing work around relational trauma and Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

It's a courageous step to seek therapy. And the second step is to find the right therapist. A therapist who is engaged with you in healing psychic wounds (that may cause anxiety, depression, health issues) as well as attuning to the unfolding of your potential. I have 30 years of clinical experience as a depth therapist, was Program Chair for six years and now core faculty, and Associate Professor in the Integral Counseling Program at CIIS in SF. I received my MA from Boston College in Massachusetts and PhD from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology in Palo Alto, CA.

I offer *concierge therapy services* in Palo Alto, Piedmont, and the greater Bay Area. I am committed to uniquely serving individuals and family systems to support clients in navigating their complex and fast-paced lives in a way that is expressly tailored to fit into your Bay Area lifestyle. I work dynamically with family members to address overarching goals from different perspectives. This allows me to focus on your needs from every angle possible. The result is comprehensive change on an individual and systematic level. I can meet online or in person with a flexible structure to meet your ever changing needs.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who believes in the power of change, all you need are the right tools.

Welcome to my practice. I have many years of experience helping individuals and couples successfully deal with anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, stress, low self-esteem, relationship problems, and parenting challenges. I enjoy helping people grow in their personal and professional lives.

Sometimes it takes the gentle mirroring of another person to help see what is no longer working in our lives. Habits formed to survive difficult childhoods may be wrecking havoc. Communication styles may be sabotaging love. We may feel overwhelmed in parenting, or facing a big life transition. I work closely with my clients to increase communication skills and develop greater personal awareness. I teach nervous system regulation in order to stay calm and effective during conflict, difficult conversations, and life transitions. From therapy you’ll learn to operate from wholeness and authenticity, and gain acceptance for self/others.

Hello, I'm a bilingual psychologist with expertise in anxiety and depression. I've dedicated my career to understanding the intricacies of human behavior and helping people overcome challenges that may hinder your personal or professional lives. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or simply seeking guidance in navigating life's complexities, I strive to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through evidence-based techniques and personalized approaches, I aim to empower you to develop healthier coping mechanisms, improve your relationship, and achieve your goals.

Therapy is a deeply personal and challenging process. As a therapist, I aim to create a space where individuals moving through difficult periods of their lives can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and learn new ways of relating to them. I strive to be a non-judgmental, compassionate, and empathetic partner in your healing journey. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ folks, individuals dealing with trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, chronic pain, and challenging life transitions.

I specialize in working with individual adult men and women going through a wide range of emotional and relationship difficulties including: * depression * anxiety * stress * relationship problems * low self-esteem * complicated grief * life transitions * feeling stuck * the pain and complication of growing up in a challenging parent/child relationship *

I work with clients between the ages of 13-24, struggling with everything from mild anxiety and depression to disordered eating and self-harm. Some of my clients face pervasive mood and relationship struggles based in trauma and family conflict. My work relies on evidence-based treatments rooted in cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic therapies including DBT, interpersonal therapy, and family systems. I work well in building a safe and trusting space in therapy, especially for clients who have complex histories.

As a seasoned licensed psychologist focusing on relationship issues, I work online with couples, individuals and families of adult children who want to improve their intimate relationships at home as well as their relational skills at work. I believe therapy is most effective when it provides both a safe space for reflection as well as a challenge. Additionally, I think good therapy calls for collaboration, sensitivity, honesty, and most of all having your best interests at heart.

While some individuals enter therapy with acute distress and specific problems that need to be addressed; others have a more vague feeling of discontent. In either case, the self-exploration of analytic work is meant to expand the way one thinks and feels. Learning to think creatively is one way to describe the goal of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. WIth guidance, an individual learns to hold the tension of multiple perspectives/emotions resulting in a flexibility of thinking that involves both analytic and imaginative parts of the mind. This "full thinking" can be applied to personal life issues, relationships and creative pursuits.
