If you are seeking healing from your past, healthier relationships, and personal growth, I would love the opportunity to come alongside you on your journey. Healing can happen in a collaborative, compassionate, and supportive therapeutic relationship. I want to help you break free from the bonds of your past so that you are able to reach your fullest potential in the future. I primarily work from a humanistic client centered approach and utilize EMDR to help individuals reprocess past trauma and unhealthy belief systems. I strive to create a supportive and safe environment to process through these barriers to healing.

I have a special interest in working with couples and families and in doing Dream Work with my individual clients. Much of the therapeutic work I do is based on the theories of Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell, & James Hillman. However, I do balance my practice using other therapeutic techniques from other theorists as well. It is not so important for me to apply a certain theory or my own beliefs on a client but instead it is my intention to really understand my clients' own personal beliefs and expectations of therapy. This aids in

Hello, my name is Sabrina Brown, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe that the first step in any change is being able to recognize the issue. With my approach to therapy, we will work together to activate the change you want to see. I create a safe space for us to communicate by being mindful and aware of tone, body language, and openness. I was interested in therapy because I wanted to make an impact in people's lives. I like to allow my clients to use the autonomy of creating goals for themselves while encouraging and guiding the client.

I want clients to know that they are accepted totally for who they are and accepting of their struggles.

My name is Debra Solseng, and I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I work via telehealth statewide and in person in Costa Mesa, California. My clients are adults who want to improve their mood and/or decrease their anxiety. I typically work with adults who want to feel better about themselves and their lives. Talking about life’s ups and downs in a confidential environment contributes to feeling better. Thinking in cognitive behavioral terms offers tools to work through negative thoughts and feelings. I use EMDR when working through past and present traumas.

Are you finding that you and your significant other seem to fail at communication yet succeed in conflict with each other? Do arguments not get resolved and instead it's one issue after another? Do you feel tired and lost in your relationship? Trust and commitment alone are difficult things to cultivate, let alone building insight and effective communication.  Whether you're wanting help early or this is the last ditch effort, bravo for your willingness and bravery for exploring your options. Also, if your past still affects your present, do you want to continue allowing those traumas to weigh heavy in your life?

Julie is a Somatic Therapist who is able to use body awareness and body-based interventions to support the client and their nervous system. Deep transformative work can be done by integrating parts of ourselves left in the shadows within the context of a safe relational container.

It's not what you thought it would be, and that's okay. Life transitions are hard. As much as we try to prepare ourselves, we can never be fully prepared. However, we can work together to help you embrace the changes and learn to navigate life with a new fresh perspective. And who knows, you might just find that the changes or life transitions you experienced, creates a better version of yourself. I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional. I also have an extensive background working with children, adolescents and young adults.

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness." I believe that client care absolutely should be individualized (in collaboration with the individual), contain healthy coping skills, and help build a social support network that can help him/her/them progress towards a much happier future.

You want to feel heard but deep down you are struggling and it feels as if something is missing. Using a holistic, mindful approach to alleviate pain and unwanted symptoms, I can help guide you to build on self compassion and self-care. Working together we work toward improving anxiety, depressive symptoms, self-empowerment, self-esteem.

I mainly work with clients who are "psychologically minded" and interested in examining long-standing personality traits that may get in the way of having fulfilling personal and professional lives. Often my clients are therapists or aspiring therapists. I am an Emeritus Professor and a "Research Psychoanalyst." That means I have a PhD in Philosophy and have also trained in counseling and acquired a PsyD in Psychoanalysis. What I offer draws from this mix of backgrounds. I most like working with individuals (and couples and groups) who want to be challenged on both an intellectual and an emotional level.

It really is time. Time to bring forward your strength to overcome your sadness and pain. Time to heal the wounds of trauma, chaos, and fear. Time to bring a peaceful balance to your day to day life. You can do this! We can do this! With some help and direction, some practice and patience, you can find positive, life changing results. We will work together; to develop behavioral strategies that can overcome your emotional challenges, build a more compassionate awareness of self and others, and bring clarity/ healing to the impact of past and present.

I have a cognitive-behavioral approach that will be discussed and examined during the course of our treatment. There is one aspect of your life that is true; if you don’t do anything different, nothing will change.

I once read an anonymous quote that reads: "You may not be able to control every situation and its outcome, but you can control how you deal with it" - that spoke to how I approach therapy with whomever I work with. It is life's challenges that seem to make each situation "out of our control" to add additional stress and conflict in whatever we do OR with whomever we have relationships with. My approach is to provide a way to get where you would like to be, but it won't be easy. I use a variety of approaches to best suit you individually OR to fit the circumstances you face.

Hi there, I'm Kaci, and I specialize in helping individuals, couples, kids, and teens who are grappling with symptoms like overwhelming anxiety, persistent low self-esteem, the weight of past trauma, loss that feels unbearable, or relational struggles that seem insurmountable.

I help adults who are dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and spiritual issues. I integrate biblically based, Christian counseling into the therapy experience, as well as evidenced-based treatment modalities such Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy.
