Therapists in 94303
While there are many reasons people seek therapy, one thought is central: something has to change. You may be a goal-oriented individual who has always been able to work through problems on your own, but now something feels different. You feel stuck, and the things that used to help no longer do. Change is not easy, but it is possible. As a clinical psychologist, I work collaboratively with you to build the insight, tools, and confidence to develop new patterns & behaviors. We will work to identify the source of your pain and empower you to resolve it using evidenced-based treatments in a supportive, action-oriented environment.

A large part of my life's purpose is to help women, men, and couples cope with and heal from life's traumas. I believe in therapy as a way to heal, starting with a caring relationship. Accidents, health issues, disease, child abuse (sexual, physical, emotional, or neglect), family problems, grief and loss, etc. can be traumatic. Problems add up and cause complex layers of stress and challenge over time. People say that I am warm and caring, I listen carefully, am patient, sensitive, and don't give up. I pay special attention to making the space safe for you.

Hello, my name is Dr. Jane Akponye! I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 129857), a certified Anger Management provider, an EQi-2.0 certified practitioner, and the author of “Children of Divorced Parents”. As a passionate person, I decided to help people find their passions and celebrate life through counseling. Due to perceived stigma, it’s often tough to decide whether to see a therapist when we are worried, stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed with life experiences. I ask you not to struggle through it alone but embrace help.

There are times when our problems become unbearable, and we can tell because they are impacting our relationships with others. We just don't know how to make changes that will be beneficial to the most important people in our lives, and ourselves. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I can help you feel less alone and start thinking differently about the issues that have been holding you back. I want to know what got you to this point, and assist you in becoming a happier version of yourself.

Feeling anxious or depressed is a reasonable reaction to the unreasonable levels of stress that young people deal with. My work is aimed at helping you make sense of your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. I'm not here to tell you that you need to change. You might have behaviors you want to change, and I will support and assist for sure, but it's important that you know that your core self is whole and loveable, just the way you are. The work in therapy is about going from knowing that to believing it in your bones.

Do you sometimes ask yourself: I feel angry, disappointed, or depressed. What can I do? I tried everything, nothing works in the long term. Why are my relationships so unfulfilling? During sessions, you are guided to discover the parts of your Self that are in conflict. They have conflicting goals, perspectives, and beliefs. Those "parts" often pull you in opposite directions - "I want to eat, but I also want to lose weight" for example. Then you criticize yourself for not being more responsible, productive, etc... Get to understand why they pull you in opposite directions and how to negotiate with them.

You know how most smart, accomplished professionals have a lot going right in their lives but there is this one "if only" part of their lives that keeps them up at night. They are feeling worried, frustrated & anxious. And they are such wonderful people that you just wish they could have what they want. Maybe this feels familiar & you can relate to wanting something to be different so badly. But for some reason it just doesn't seem to change. This is when we feel disconnected from our most powerful, carefree selves & we're not sure how to find relief.

I am a warm and direct psychologist, and I have been in practice since 2005. I have worked in many different contexts including internationally, and I love helping diverse people thrive. I work with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, psychosis, stressful life events and relationship issues. My approach is psychoanalytic and based in extensive clinical experience and broad theoretical knowledge. I always prioritize your unique needs and situation over any theory, because I believe that we are all different and that it takes time and understanding to help you feel better and live more freely and more fully.

Are you looking for help to sort out sad, hopeless, angry or confused feelings? Perhaps you have struggled for a long time, or perhaps a crisis in your life has overwhelmed your usual ability to cope. Each person needs something different from therapy, such as support in rocky times, new ideas about unsatisfactory relationships, exploration and clarification of difficult life situations, or encouragement to reach for joy and purpose in life. My approach to our work together will be custom-fit to your hopes, your concerns, your goals, your life.

I work with individual adult clients who are motivated to make changes (small and sometimes large) to feel better. There are ways that we may keep ourselves stuck in patterns that are not working. Our work together will help you identify and change these patterns; and to be more fully alive and aligned with your deeper values and goals. The Bay Area can be very stressful, making it more difficult to find balance. It helps tremendously to have a space where you can safely examine how you're doing and what you might want to change.

Relationships can be hard. Partners struggle with communication, conflicting parenting styles, sexual expressions... Life's challenges, hurtful fights, history of trauma or infidelity make it difficult to sustain trust and closeness. How can you create desired connections, and not lose yourself in the process? How can you be true both to self and to your partnership? I invite you to explore these questions together with empathy and curiosity, letting go of habitual judgments, self-deprecation, and shame. I work with individuals, couples, and families. Both traditional and alternative lifestyles are welcome, and no issue is a taboo.

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” —Viktor Frankl. Suffering comes in many forms. Mainly, I believe it comes from how we relate to ourselves and to others. I hope to help you develop tools and insight to manage challenges and stressors to help you learn how to suffer less. My goal is to get to know the essence of who you are and understand how your life and experiences have brought you to this moment.

Are you or loved ones facing challenges you want to work through in safety and confidence? Reacting to life events with worry or sadness? Ready for a new beginning? For better or worse, our experience is shaped by expectations and habits that are maintained by loyalty to important relationships, and by cycles of confirming experience. They affect our happiness, our relationships and the success of our endeavors. Therapy can help. In a safe empathic relationship, unhelpful expectations and habits can be retired, and happier habits of relating to life and others can be learned, chosen and implemented.
