Family Systems Therapists in Claremont, CA

Hello! I am Marisa Swain, a licensed Marriage and Family therapist who has been working in the field since 2015. As someone who strongly feels that everyone deserves to be able to understand themselves, I would love to challenge you to build insight into what makes you who you are and to find the direction you may be looking for. My approach to therapy is derived from evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral, internal family systems, and narrative therapies. I specialize in a variety of areas, including anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship issues, and more.

Working through traumatic experiences while achieving a sense of wholeness may be a difficult journey to undertake alone. It's not uncommon to experience a range of emotions (e.g., shame, depression, fear, grief, and anger). Together, we cultivate growth, integrating fragmented pieces and clarifying your experiences. With compassion as our guide, we navigate your journey with courage and resilience, nourishing exploration and revealing hidden truths. Together, we create a safe place to explore, heal, and embrace your authenticity without judgment or constraint.

As a clinical psychologist, I work with clients towards meeting their personal goals and deepening their understanding of themselves. I have expertise in treating clients who are facing a particularly difficult time in their lives, including coping with health issues, changes in family dynamics, social challenges, grief, and navigating life transitions. As part of the Claremont community, I work frequently with college students as they manage increasing independence. I also have experience working with medical professionals on improving work life balance and stress management, having worked at Children's Hospital for several years.

I provide therapy to teens, adults and couples. My specialties include Brainspotting, IFS (Internal Family Systems) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for treatment of trauma and complex PTSD.

I am trained in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) and I treat a variety of conditions, including complex trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, OCD, eating disorders, and addiction. I provide Christian Counsel/Guidance upon request.

It takes great courage to seek help, and is a particularly difficult task when you are a parent of child who is struggling behaviorally and emotionally. I have over 15 years of experience working with children and families in the mental health field in a variety of settings including clinics, homes, and schools. I believe through therapy, children and adults find their resilience and courage within to overcome life's biggest obstacles and find their path to the successes they desire in life. The power of a child finding their voice or a parent building their toolbox of responses to difficult behaviors are some of my main focuses.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, wondering why you have strong reactions to small stressors or during interactions with others. Life doesn't wait for us to resolve each bad experience/trauma in life, they build up over time and leave us feeling hopeless, alone and disconnected from others. Our past traumas, if unresolved, can impact us negatively with how we interact with others. For the last 19 years, I have helped individuals from all walks of life overcome issues such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship issues, traumas, and work/school stressors.

I struggled immensly with anxiety and depression for many years. In my teens and twenties I was in and out of emergency rooms because of panic attacks. In 1997 I started studying mindfulness meditation with Jon Kabat-Zinn and everything changed from that point forward. Once I learned how to have better control over my thoughts and emotions, anxiety and depression became much easier to deal with. I became a therapist and mindfulness teacher to help others gain the same skills.

Parenting is HARD! My mission is to help you and your child live happier, healthier and more fulfilled lives. I specialize in adoption and foster placements where attachments were not formed in an organic manner as they are with birth children. Whether it is an infant or teenager, the need for secure attachments is key. I offer services that help foster these attachments.

My belief is that we are happiest when we are mentally, spiritually, and physically balanced. Sometimes things happen that disrupt this balance, and impact our ability to lead a fulfilling life. My goal is to partner with people to discover balance, as well as provide hope and healing to those who are hurting. I know it can be uncomfortable thinking about going to counseling, and many wait until things seem hopeless. I believe that there is always hope, and with the right tools and support, you can move forward and begin enjoying life to the fullest.
