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.

"Well, it's always something!" How often have we all heard and said this phrase. Yet it's true. Life is always presenting us with"somethings" - loss, problems, distress, despair - obstacles to our happiness and well-being, and to our relationships. It is a very wise decision to reach out for help. Yet I know it is also stressful to try to decide on a therapist. Let me share with you who I am and my approach as a therapist. I unfailingly believe it is possible for people to make positive changes in their lives and to heal past and present trauma and pain.

The people in your life see this strong and positive side of you, but on the inside you're feeling lost, confused, isolated, and like you don't know how much longer you can keep up this façade before the suffering starts to leak out and you lose complete control.

Being human is hard. Sometimes, it can feel like we’re running in circles or sleepwalking through life on auto-pilot with racing thoughts that clutter the mind and paralyze the spirit. Overwhelmed by the weight of emptiness in the heart, but possibly already skipping or spiraling ahead to the next step to carry on with the performance of this existence because “everything is fine.” The show must go on, right? There may be limitations, even detrimental consequences to filling the void with excessive distractions. How did too much become never enough?
