Grief Therapists in 97205

Hi, my name is Elisa, I am a California native, and Licensed as a Social Worker in California, Oregon, and Washington State. I work with individuals and couples. Do you isolate, feel misunderstood, or have difficult connecting to others? Have you been told you are "too sensitive", "too intense", or "too intense"? Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try - you can't catch a break? Do you want to hide parts of yourself? Do you want to build more connection in your relationship? You are not alone. Often times our old wounds and experiences get in the way of living. Contact me if you are ready for a fresh start.

Whether the focus is self esteem, depression, anxiety, relationships, trauma, addiction, or other sorts of pain, you will feel understood within a safe, caring and growth enhancing private therapy. A deeper understanding and comfort with yourself will empower you to live a richer, more productive and satisfying life. Discover important mind-body connections, better identify your desires and goals, be more organized, hopeful and able to enjoy relationships. Design and direct your life in creative, powerful and satisfying ways. Embrace this opportunity for insight, greater happiness and positive change. I can help you to become your most hoped for self.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. I believe we all, regardless of our situation, have the potential to achieve an optimal state of well-being. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, self-harm, grief, family conflict, anger, or self-identity, among other things, let's meet so that we can discover new paths forward.

Depression, anxiety, conflict or life transitions can leave us feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Therapy can, and should, be a safe and collaborative relationship where we work through the complications of life and relationships to find a more hopeful, rewarding and loving experience of the world. I want you to feel active in your therapy as we work toward gentle healing and personal growth. In addition to working with individuals, couples and families, I offer retreats, groups and am the co-creator of Her Table Wealth and Wellness which combines therapy with financial coaching to help women truly level up.

Welcome. I practice from a paradigm that explores and honors all parts of us to promote healing of the body, mind, and soul. My focus is on deepening insight into thoughts, feelings, emotions, and the body's story to experience more understanding and compassion for oneself. I believe we are good enough just as we are, and I also understand that there may be patterns, behaviors and symptoms that we may want to shift to help us live fuller, more expansive, peaceful lives. My hope is to cultivate healing, through the safety and support of our therapeutic relationship, and for my clients to rediscover their own inner healer.

You're here, looking for a therapist licensed/registered in Oregon, Washington or New Jersey to help you with challenging feelings and situations. There's so many therapists that can help alleviate anxiety, depression, self-esteem and relationship issues, and trauma. How do you choose? How do you choose when you're already feeling overwhelmed by life? We offer you what we would want: Experience, education, convenience, connection, and lasting healing.

Only accepting group therapy referrals. In my experience, life is better and easier if you have someone that understands you, sees it from your point of view, and helps you navigate through it. A good therapist is like a fellow traveler who journeys with us into awareness, facilitating the insight necessary to heal and grow. I am a passionate facilitator of this process, helping my clients make sense of their lives and relationships, heal what's kept them stuck, explore new ways of being and live richly. The therapy we do is deep and has long-lasting effects, and the changes become your second nature, even after therapy ends.

For anyone struggling with debilitating trauma in the aftermath of an automobile accident, SOMA Trauma Therapy can help. Are you afraid to drive, or to be in a vehicle at all? Are you feeling anxious and scared much of the time? Experiencing nightmares and having trouble sleeping? Afraid to leave home? Struggling to focus? Having panic attacks? These symptoms are debilitating, interfering with your recovery and your life. We can help you reclaim your life!

My primary therapeutic goal is to support individuals in their journey towards healthy and sustainable growth, including resolution of any past trauma. Often when faced with change or difficulty, people may feel anxious not knowing what to expect or they may fear a potential outcome. I enjoy providing space to be curious, explore factors in life contributing to these feelings and help individuals develop skills to help manage this distress. By learning how our past and current stressors impact our lives, we can learn about ourselves and grow.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I am here to help you develop a deeper understanding of the problems you are currently facing, have faced in the past, and may face in the future. With a trauma-informed approach we will collaboratively develop a path to create the meaningful change you seek in life. When we hold a more compassionate perspective of our lives and the world around us, we are better able to heal from our wounds and move forward with intention and purpose. While the journey is not always easy, you certainly don’t have go through it alone. Adam A. Tannenbaum, MSW, LCSW is here to support you along your journey.

I think counseling is always useful, even when there's nothing "wrong." We get a lot of chances to go, go, go but not a lot to slow down and reflect. Usually it takes some crisis of feeling or relationship to tell us it's time. I see those crises as opportunities, doorways to deeper understanding. And because we're not fixed individuals, they come and go as we change and grow.

My approach to therapy is focused on providing a safe, supportive place for clients.I draw from a perspective that emphasizes both the interpersonal/relational nature of therapy as well as the important role that culture plays in how we define ourselves and relate to one another. I find that this approach helps to facilitate a strong working alliance between myself and my clients and in doing so sets the ground for clients to begin to challenge existing patterns in their lives and experiment with making healthy changes in the way they relate to themselves and others.

I utilize an insight and awareness oriented style of therapy that is committed to authenticity and humor when possible. More than half of my clients are involved in or exploring ethical non-monogamy or a queer sexual orientation but the most important thing I look for in clients is just a good therapy chemistry between us. I prioritize new clients with Kaiser health insurance due to a new and specific contract I have with them.

I work with a combination of somatic awareness, analysis, creativity, and deep, honest conversation in my work with clients. I have been sitting with folks for over 15 years and have learned so much in that time through my work, and as the field of therapy and counseling has continued to evolve and grow. My client sessions are involved interactions, where I ask questions, give feedback, and encourage that magic combination of accountability and grace with yourself and others. We live in a larger context and system, and an understanding of that system and your place in it will also inform our work at all times.

Therapy is an opportunity for personal development in a safe, nonjudgmental, respectful, private, and supportive environment. It is natural to feel overwhelmed at times and it is not a sign of weak character to seek help. Through therapy we can learn to manage our emotions more effectively, improve our relationships and communication, bolster our confidence and self-esteem, and minimize our distress. In my work, I strive to create a comfortable environment in which I can assist clients in identifying thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and recurring patterns of behavior that may be impinging on the capacity to experience and create a fuller, more satisfying life.

Do you struggle to make lasting changes in your life? Do you suffer from relationship difficulties, job dissatisfaction or low self-esteem? Do you repeat the same negative patterns? If so, I believe I can help. I am trained to help you make the changes you want to see in your life. I will help you get to the root of your problems, not simply treat your symptoms. This happens best in the safety of a trusted therapeutic relationship where we will work collaboratively to help you discover your authentic feelings, make a deeper connection to yourself and others, and reap greater satisfaction from your life.

Do you notice that worry, conflict, or self-doubt are leaving you feeling exhausted, paralyzed, or overwhelmed? Or find yourself stuck in situations or patterns that no longer serve you? If past or current events are limiting your ability to fully live your life, this could be a great time to see a therapist. When you enter new territory, having a skilled companion by your side--to really listen, see your strengths, offer new tools, and be with you while you explore and heal the difficult places--can give you the clarity, courage, and confidence to effectively make the changes you want to see in your life more quickly.
