Therapists in Nevada County, CA

I am at Kindred Heart Therapy group to provide tele-health therapy to those who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. I like to provide a space for my clients that allows them to be honest and real with their thoughts and emotions. My goal is for you to reach your mental health goals. Sessions are tailored to your needs and wants for your mental health. My main priority is to create a warm and safe space in therapy by being collaborative and genuine with clients. I want to help clients live a more authentic lifestyle through a client-centered focus and compassion-focused approach.

I have been a licensed therapist for 19 years. I believe that the most important part of therapy is the therapeutic relationship. The therapeutic relationship is formed in a collaboration between myself and my clients in an environment of mutual acceptance and respect. In addition to my education, training and experience as a therapist, I rely on my innate skills as an active listener, my good memory and genuine caring to guide me in my approach to therapy.

I support my clients to transform stress, trauma, grief, relationship turmoil, and difficult habits into creativity, vitality, and freedom, using a rare combination of mindfulness, art therapy, and compassionate exploration of each clients unique experiences. My view is that all people hold the ability to evolve, and ultimately hold the wisdom within needed to do so. I collaborate with my clients as both an ally and a guide, to generate deep self acceptance, work through painful inner conflict, access imagination and genuineness, practice clear and empowered communication, and take action to live in more fulfilling ways.

Finding a therapist can be a challenge on its own, let alone finding one with whom you feel comfortable enough to share the intimate details of your life. It takes courage to ask for help and embark on a path of personal growth. If you’re reading this you’ve passed a threshold and are ready to put in the work of examining the parts of yourself, and your life, that you’d like to change. The next step is to find out if the therapist you’ve chosen is the right fit.

Sometimes life’s inevitable challenges cause added stress, sadness, worry, feelings of being “stuck” or not feeling like yourself. I understand that calling to schedule your first therapy appointment might feel daunting. Perhaps you keep putting it off, wondering if therapy is necessary or even right for you. I believe that every person is deserving of support when life feels difficult.

Psychotherapy is one way to promote change which examines attitude, feelings, emotions and motivation when the individual, couple or family experience is less than funtional. The work is mainly to encourage the patient to talk and explore their feelings, beliefs, and thoughts which develops integrated mindful awareness. In other words emotional growth. Additionally, this is a process which seeks to help gain an increased capacity for choice, through which the patient becomes more autonomous,functional and self-determined. Dr. Laine strongly believes that this challenging work is best accomplished in an atmosphere of safety, caring, support and is dedicated to providing this for all patients.
