Chronic Illness Therapists in Millbrae, CA

Hello, I'm Katrina. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes people do better when they have support. So, this is what I do with those who choose to join in a collaboration with me to face their challenges and establish goals they undercover. Clients with chronic medical conditions that are causing them stress and disability. Clients who have co-dependency issues which have caused somatic conditions. Also, these conditions often cause depression and anxiety due to a person's limited abilities which I am comfortable treating.

I have been providing treatment to adolescents and adults in the Bay Area since 2011. I view therapy as a collaborative process and feel strongly that treatment is most effective when individuals can share their feelings and thoughts openly. To that end, building a therapeutic relationship based on trust and mutual respect is vital to a successful outcome. I use a treatment approach that is warm and welcoming and try to remain authentic and accepting in sessions.

Hello, I’m Marjorie E Sturdy and I have been providing counseling services as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2001.

I look forward to hearing from clients how they feel I can help them most.

During therapy I will provide evidence based CBT methods. I have 30 years of experience as a social worker working with medically and psychosocially complex patients, and am able to tailor our work together with a strength based approach.
