Hello my name is Meghan Giles, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I am passionate about working collaboratively with individuals to help empower them to create lasting change. I have worked with adults, teens, and children that are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, and communication difficulties. For the past 6 years I have treated children from 5-12 years of age in the school setting and virtually during COVID. Recently I have become trained as a Pregnancy and Postpartum Coach.

Hello there! Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I want you to know that reaching out to talk about your emotions and needs is a significant step, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. As your therapist, my foremost commitment is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can freely explore and discover yourself. With more than two decades of experience working with a diverse range of clients in various settings, such as schools, non-profit agencies, group homes, and hospitals, I've had the privilege of witnessing countless personal journeys of growth and healing.

Are you feeling fulfilled and living the life you’ve always imagined for yourself? Are your relationships with yourself and others healthy? Are you experiencing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and/or overwhelming emotions? Perhaps you struggle to make sense of what you're going through. Trauma and other labels do not define you. I can help you develop and uncover resources to cope with challenges, heal what’s stuck, and live a life you love. We all have a story to tell, and I'm here to help you make sense of yours. Let's work together.

My name is Pat and I am an experienced licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist and have helped hundreds of adults, children, couples, and families over the years through the therapy process. I have a BA degree in Psychology from Occidental College, a Master in Social Work degree from Cal State LA, and licensure LCSW from the Board of Behavioral Sciences, California. This year 2022 I am finishing up a certificate of healthcare fellowship from UC Davis in Pain Management.

Each of us sees life through a certain set of lenses. I am especially curious about how my clients view themselves and those they love. I help clients discover how their earliest relationships may be influencing their relationships today. In addition, I support clients working through any grief they are experiencing from relationship losses due to physical death, divorce, or addiction. These kinds of discoveries create options, and more flexibility in how people respond emotionally and behaviorally today

I provide supportive therapy for teens and adults looking to learn and heal from anxiety, depression, body image issues, self-esteem or life stressors. My work with individuals includes improving relationships, learning how to become "unstuck," increasing self-worth and better coping with difficult feelings. I am also trained in EMDR which allows me to support individuals who have experienced traumatic or stressful experiences and are ready to heal. My work with parents of children ages 6-16 allows me to share my knowledge on behavior modification interventions and child-focused practices to improve overall harmony at home

I specialize in helping adults in their 30s who want to heal their childhood wounds, which are getting in their way of experiencing more secure attachments in their intimate relationships. Growing up witnessing dysfunctional interactions in our family of origin does not equip us with the best tools to have healthy relationships as adults. Relationship distress can be so overwhelming that it can drain our joy, creativity, work productivity, and even our health.

Welcome! It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help, and it's crucial that you find a therapist you connect with-someone who can really see you so that you can begin to truly see yourself. I see part of my role as helping you bring light into your dark moments & to help you discover what keeps you stuck so that you can live a life of greater peace & freedom. In the last 15 years, I’ve been trained in a wide range of therapies, from IFS, somatic & mindfulness based approaches to CBT and DBT. I believe that good therapy is both science and art, and each session is its own unique encounter.

Change is possible. Together we will focus on making that change happen. In our work together we will explore what brought you to therapy and identify goals you want to reach. I will hold space for you to be able to explore your psyche with compassion and non-judgement. We will work collaboratively using my training in counseling psychology to guide us into exploring the parts of your life and psychology you are interested in examining. We will bring what we learn back to practical steps you can implement in your daily life to support you in achieving change. Together we will move in the direction you want your life to go.
