In Person Therapists in Napa, CA

Hi, I'd like to help if you're struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, school problems, or relationship problems. I'd like to be there for your family if your child or teen seems depressed, unfocused, angry, anxious, isolative or is struggling in school or friendships. If you are searching for tools to navigate problems at work, relationships, or thoughts that won't get out of your head, I can help. If you're in the LGBTQIA+ community and need an affirming therapist, I am one. I use humor and creativity to help people shift perspective.

Mindful of the stigma that exists, I highly value the vulnerability and courage of those in search of discovering the best version of themselves. My unique ability to listen with compassion and empathy fosters a therapeutic relationship in a safe and caring environment. Despite adversity, everyone has the capacity to develop the skills needed to maximize their full potential and thrive. Consciente del estigma que existe, valoro mucho la vulnerabilidad y la valentía de quienes buscan descubrir la mejor versión de sí mismos. Mi habilidad única de escuchar con compasión y empatía fomenta una relación terapéutica en un entorno seguro.

My name is Patricia Peloso, Licensed Marriage and Family therapist in Laguna Niguel, California. I offer brief and long-term models of therapy, online, and face-to-face. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

I believe in you! It would be an honor to meet you and I look forward to our relationship together. My theoretical orientation can be described as person-centered therapy where I as the therapist provide an accepting and non-judgmental environment for each client. Each person I meet with has within himself or herself vast resources for self-understanding, for altering his or her self-concept, attitudes and self-directed behavior. These resources can be tapped when a definable climate of therapeutic rapport is developed. I look forward to hearing from you so that we may start the journey together! :)

I offer individual, couples and family therapy that honors the spiritual life of my clients. I specialize in relationship counseling and use Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Kunkel's We Psychology in my work. I welcome clients of all faiths and those who are spiritual but not religious. I am a Psychotherapist member of the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education and a Presbyterian pastor. My life-long interest in spirituality has included study in world religions, prayer, meditation and depth psychology. My training in behavioral science and theology supports an integrated approach to creative work and healthy relationships.

Welcome. I have over 24 years of experience as a therapist, and master's degrees in Clinical Psychology and Physiology. I also have over 30 years of experience teaching and practicing mindfulness, and a background in neuroscience research. If you are suffering from anxiety, anger, depression, trauma, addiction or family/marriage problems, I can help. I can take you beyond traditional talk-based therapy using experiential methods, to access and change emotional and behavioral patterns that keep you stuck. Please see my website for additional information on my training and experience.

Is anxiety, anger, or resentment keeping you from fully enjoying life or connecting with others? Do you find yourself struggling with life changes, low self-esteem, relationships, depression, identity (sexuality/gender), addiction, or trauma? Maybe deep down you know there's a more fulfilling path but challenges seem to hold you back. I'm passionate about helping you find a path forward by achieving your goals and building a life that feels meaningful. For couples, I utilize the Developmental Model by the Couple's Institute, including Initiator and Inquirer techniques to enhance communication.

It is a helpless feeling when your child is struggling and you don’t know how to help them. This pandemic has created a totally new and unexpected environment for our children. I am here to help both you and your child through this difficult time. I work with children kindergarten through sixth grade. I have been providing school-based services for the past 25 years which includes all ages five through 18 years of age. However, I specialize with younger children at the elementary school level. I meet my clients where they are by creating a safe and fun space for them so that they feel comfortable expressing their feelings.

Ready to stop feeling lost? Do you feel like life is out of control? Are you quick to cry or short tempered? Have you experienced a life changing event? You are not alone. Life and unmanaged stress can leave us wondering how we got where we are and if anything can ever be different. It is easy to walk through life feeling disconnected and numb, like you are just going through the motions. I’m am here to tell you: ‘Life can be different and the answers are within you.”

When life and relationships get(or have been for a long time) tough. When anxiety gets in the way of enjoyment, fulfillment and productivity. When it is just harder than it used to be to get anything done. When you feel stuck or see a transition ahead, but feel unsure how to move forward. When you feel alone or lonely and need support to build a better lifestyle that fits your hopes. When self-esteem gets in your way or you find yourself depending on external things(i.e. people, substances, behaviors) to bring joy. ---An unbiased place to work through things like this is an important part of a change that is best for you.

There are many reasons for seeking therapy, but most often the goal is to feel better, live more fully, or improve coping skills. I believe that effective therapy is tailored to the presenting issue, specific treatment goals, individual temperament as well as an ongoing assessment of effectiveness. My style is one of openness, acceptance, curiosity, respect, optimism, and encouragement.

Hi! I am a neurodivergent (ADHD, Autism, Anxiety) affirming child/adolescent clinician. I enjoy supporting parents (check out my mindful parenting podcast at WideAwakeParenting.com) and kids with in person DBT, CBT and play therapy tools. I also complete ADHD, Autism and Specific Learning Disorder evaluations to identify your child's cognitive and emotional profile and make social, emotional and educational recommendations. My favorite part of this work is getting to know your family. We will use your family's strengths and value system to create comfortable solutions for you and your child.

Hello! My name is Dr. Mary Hakimeh, PsyD. I am an evidence-based psychologist. My approach to therapy is a combination of space to help you process, as well as gentle guidance to help encourage you to reach your goals. I have experience working with clients from many different backgrounds and presentations, ranging from grief to trauma to depression. My main clinical interests are working with clients exploring their identity, those with relationship problems, and anxiety.

Have you noticed feeling stuck, confused, and frustrated? Symptoms of trauma, depression, and anxiety are difficult to face, and naturally we want to avoid them. But avoidance keeps us stuck in unhelpful patterns that make it difficult to fully enjoy life. Once you understand how and why your mind has created these patterns, you gain the ability to break free from them, and live a more intentional and joyful life.

Sometimes life is hard and you need a safe place to relieve your burdens, feel assured that you will not be judged and be accepted for who you are. Maybe you've been through a very disturbing experience that has altered your sense of trust and impacted your relationships. It could be that you are feeling sad, anxious or confused. In my experience pain can be used as a conduit to change in our lives as we obtain wisdom and re- connect with our inner strengths.

I believe It is okay not to be okay. Life is full of adversities and each person has their own unique life experiences. If you have experienced trauma, faced relationship difficulties, felt anxious on a regular basis, struggled with your family or experience sadness regularly, it may be time for you to reach out for help - and that's okay!

I view my role as a therapist as being both a safe witness and a compassionate guide with the goal of increasing your ability to cope with life's challenges, improve functioning, and increase your sense of health and wellbeing. I work adults and adolescents, treating a variety of issues and conditions using specialized treatment modalities, including Mindfulness, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems therapy, and DBT and CBT.
