Spirituality Therapists in 95661

I believe you are the expert in your life! My approach is to work in partnership with you, as you are the expert. Through empathy and compassion, I want to help you discover your unique strengths in achieving your goals for personal prosperity.

For some, therapy is about accumulating tools and strategies for addressing specific life-struggles. For others, therapy is about better understanding oneself: solidifying your understanding of how you arrived at this place in your life and exploring how to find your way to a better, more fulfilling space. I provide individual, couples, family, and group psychotherapy services for adults and adolescents. I have the luxury of saying that I love what I do for a living, and I look forward to working with you in addressing your presenting concerns. Feel welcome to contact me for more information about my practice.

I have had the privilege to work with individuals, children, teens, and families to provide support for anxiety, depression, behavior issues, parenting concerns, exploration of spirituality and religion, communication challenges, and family relationship difficulties. I have been trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy and enjoy encouraging and supporting caregivers as they learn how to navigate the joys and struggles of parenting. I have also been trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which allows me to help others process and find healing from past traumatic events.

Hi, I am Karen and I enjoy therapeutic work with individuals and couples. Although I work with a number of mental health issues I especially enjoy working with depression, anxiety, grief, emotional trauma, self-loathing, self-esteem, shame and spirituality. As a therapist my goal is to help clients live to their true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While together we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to help you better understand and resolve the problems you currently face.

My name is Theresa Nguyen and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Orange County/Los Angeles, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I approach therapy with clients in a collaborate way utilizing science and spirituality to help guide clients build tools, skills, and knowledge to manage life's challenges.

My passion is helping individuals move through challenges and toward living life as their most authentic self through exploring and utilizing the personal energy and wisdom they already possess. This may include navigating significant transitions while maintaining a sense of self, finding strength and meaning in dark times, or facilitating present moment awareness and joy. Each of us has unique, complex stories which, at times, can create internal conflict, blocking us from moving forward. I work with you to accept and integrate conflictual parts of your experience and self so that you can move forward with increased self-awareness, self-appreciation and openness to experience.

I offer warm, insightful, and collaborative psychotherapy to help my clients change behaviors and patterns, become unstuck, and improve the quality of their life & relationships. My work focuses on major issues including trauma, couples & families in crisis, separation/divorce, attachment, abandonment, grief & loss, life transitions, intimacy issues, anxiety & depression, spirituality, and premarital counseling. My goal is to help adolescents, individuals, couples & families find healthier ways of communicating, heal from their past and to regain the ability to live fully with themselves as well as others.

Being vulnerable to anyone is scary! But, I know you are on this page for a reason. You're ready for a change or, at least, know that there must be something different to experience. That's called HOPE! You could have hope that you don't have to be sad every day, hope that life doesn't have to be scary, hope in a relationship that isn't filled with contention, or hope that you can find your purpose in this world. Whatever your reason is, YOU'VE ALREADY COMPLETED THE FIRST STEP! You are seeking help!

In the midst of turmoil lies an underlying harmony; within the confusion, a hidden structure reveals itself. I strongly hold the belief that individuals are not defined by their past experiences, but rather by the decisions they make in response to them. Therapy offers a confidential sanctuary where you can delve into your potential and explore the paths available to you in life. By offering constructive guidance and support, I aim to help you cultivate a resilient toolkit of coping mechanisms and deepen your understanding of your psyche. This newfound insight will empower you to forge healthier, more adaptive patterns of behavior!

Are you struggling to find purpose and contentment in life? Do you feel alone, unworthy, or beyond repair? Is it difficult to experience fullfillment in your relationships? Are you struggling to access the motivation to make changes in your life that align with your values and desires? You are not alone and I would be honored to walk part of this journey with you. In a space of compassion, safety, and authenticity we can do the work necessary to access healing and growth.

My vision for you is to encourage growth towards psychological wholeness by restoring balance that includes mental, physical, and spiritual health. I see the pathway of wholeness as a source of healing and transformation of perspective, a deeper respect for life, increased creativity, joy, and a sense of purpose, and various other physiological benefits.

What do you want? What are you doing to get it? Is it working, and if not, what can you do differently? Your personal goals for therapy, once defined, will be at the heart of our work together. I'll support you in applying your strengths, deepening your sense of connection to yourself and those you love, and finding healthy ways to relate to negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Suffering is part of the human condition, but together, we can learn to respond to it skillfully. Slowing down, healing and integrating life experiences will be our focus!

I assist people in finding ways to triumph over the difficulties of living in healthy relationships. Having had a Canadian mother and lived in four distinct regions of the United States as well as Germany before coming to California I draw from my multicultural life experiences which also encompass 47 years of marriage, 4 adult children and Hi Tech work for 25 years. Growing up with a loving, but work-obsessed father has prepared me to assist with fathering issues. I am trained in EMDR/trauma therapy and Certified in Addiction Treatment, Prepare & Enrich Counseling and CBT TEAM Therapy.

I am a Children and Individual therapist specializing in behavioral challenges, anxiety, add/adhd, depression, trauma, and life transitions. Rather than a one size fits all approach to therapy, I pull from a variety of modalities and incorporate different interventions and skills based on the individual clients needs and goals.

I recognize that it takes courage to seek counseling. I keep that in mind, as I come along side my clients and validate, encourage and challenge them in a safe environment to work toward their personal and specific goals. I do a lot of work with clients who have experienced childhood sexual or other types of abuse. I also do marital and pre-marital counseling and am a certified Prepare-Enrich facilitator. In addition, I help clients work through such issues as grief and loss, anger, depression, anxiety, codependency and life transitions. I am a Christian. My style is also helpful for non Christians.

I promote growth and healing through compassionate insight, reflection and strategic direction! Acquired Knowledge seems most beneficial when put to use to benefit ourselves or others, for as we serve and engage with others, we more readily discover our true selves. I subscribe to Emerson's notion; "Do the thing, and you will have the power" rather than give me the power and then I will act! I enjoy being a contributing factor to others growth and advancement and relish witnessing the blossoming of added confidence, enhanced self-esteem. and true growth!

My name is Judith Riley and I am a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT 42471). I have been practicing for 20 years with all populations and ages, with the exception of children, 0-5. I think that most people who seek help are discouraged and don't know the best way to resolve, change, or accept the issues they face. Most of my clients have been considered to be in the moderate to severe range of mental health issues, due to the MH system in which I have been working for 20 years. I cannot think of a population I would not be comfortable treating, since our population has been quite varied and on a wide spectrum.

Ready to start therapy? Good to hear! As a therapist I am here to work with you collaboratively. In my practice I share with you what I've learned and what I see has helped client's I've worked with. I have over 15 years of experience working with children, youth, adults and families of diverse backgrounds; providing support, resources, short-term, long-term counseling/psychotherapy. As I’ve grown in my practice my niche has become more focused on working individually with adults; males, females. Empowering them individually to improve various areas of their life. Thank you in advance for considering our working together.

I believe human beings are capable of incredible change! If you desire positive change in your life and are willing to work for it then it is absolutely possible, especially with my help. I believe encouragement goes a long way, but being that I am also direct and take an interactive approach to therapy with my clients, I will provide you with more than a listening ear and the ever cliché "uh huh". I will give you useful insight and feedback regarding what seems to be keeping you "stuck" and preventing you from growing and becoming more of the person you want to be.
