Clinical Supervision and Licensed Supervisors Therapists in Cool, CA

I offer both therapeutic and diagnostic services. In therapy, clients who benefit most are motivated to work toward change. They seek to improve their moods and progress toward their goals, whether related to relationships, careers, or health. I’m committed to a practice centered around empathy, caring, and acceptance. I believe establishing deep connections with clients leads to helping them achieve their goals. I also supervise an unlicensed psychologist who specializes in working with children and adolescents. She helps them improve family and peer interactions, handle emotional challenges, and master self-control.

I have a deep desire to provide healing to those who are hurting, to give each individual the resources for positive change, and to help them gain insight and understanding into the world; resulting in a brighter tomorrow. I believe that you cannot change the past, but you can be strengthened by it. My favorite quotes is 'It's okay to look back into the past, just don't stare." The client-therapist relationship is of the utmost importance to me and my goal is to lead individuals on a personal journey of awareness while providing them with hope, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist, author, and retreat facilitator for people seeking healing, growth, and wholeness. With more than 20 years of experience working with diverse populations in healthcare, my work focuses on helping people navigate challenging relationships, high stress jobs, and health problems to find meaning, wellness, and contentment. Although my training and background are in evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I draw from several modern therapies and ancient practices for an integrative experience that also provides practical support.

Have you had difficulty coping with life changes or challenges? Are you looking to improve relationships with others? Have you noticed an increase in depression or anxiety? Do you want to change part of your life, but you’re not sure how to start? Perhaps you are looking for growth or self-improvement? These are some of the questions and thoughts that motivate people to begin therapy. Therapy provides a place to explore your feelings, create goals and implement new strategies to improve your functioning. This journey can be a powerful experience and I hope to walk with you to support you in meeting your goals.

Worried? Anxious? Blue? Feelings can be the result of your situation,or they can be triggered by deeper issues such as attachment, trauma, and unprocessed memories. EMDR "turbocharges" the processing of painful memories. Adults, teens, and children with a history of abuse, trauma, and loss can heal quickly. I also specialize in resolving relationship issues and helping families become stronger. Whether you need help to navigate life transitions or to realize your full potential for emotional growth, therapy is a highly interactive process. Together we develop a plan for treatment involving care and commitment. Feel better!

I have over 30 years experience counseling children and adolescents. I have always had a passion to help people and my interests and experience as a therapist have led me to working with children and trauma. When a person is very upset, their brain cannot process information as it does ordinarily. Highly emotionally charged experiences become ‘frozen in time’ and are not processed in the usual way. My goal is to help reprocess those events to a resolution that is life-affirming and strength-building.

Let's put the "Soul" back into therapy. Psychotherapy....Psycho(of the soul) therapy(healing)....Soul healing! Anxiety, trauma, stress, relationship issues, you name it, I'll help you heal through it. Let my 20 plus years as a spiritually/culturally oriented somatic therapist work for you. Maybe you’ve tried therapy before but this time you are looking for something different. Something more…that will speak to your soul and energize your spirit. You would like to tap into your innate power to attract and maintain emotional balance, success, wealth and healthy relationships. There is hope! You don’t have to do this alone!

I would be honored to help you in self-discovery and change. It takes a lot of courage to travel down that path. I often can intuit the key issues underlying a person’s suffering, which are often relational-both within ourselves and with others. To be kind and yet direct, and to really see you-both as you are now and how you want to become more whole. Finding clarity, compassion, and new ways to effectively deal with problems are essential in therapy. I will help you find where you are stuck and ways to get unstuck, by changing how you process both your thoughts and feelings. I work with both adults and couples.

Is your child acting out and causing disruption in your home and/or at school? Does your child seem to be anxious or sad? Is your child being defiant to your authority, or the authority of others at school? Does your child struggle with regulating emotions in healthy and productive ways? It is possible that your child is reacting to outside stressors and may not have the tools to help your child deal with those stressors. I provide in-home therapy services to children and their families, to help them discover what the stressors are, and learn new ways of coping with daily stressors.

An ideal client would be someone who is empathetic toward others and compassionate toward themselves and is open, coachable, and capable of accepting feedback. The process of therapy takes time and energy so having someone start the process of therapy with an open mind and a willingness to put in the work to see the process through is also helpful.
