Male Therapists in Orange County, CA
I'm glad that you have taken a minute to look at my listing. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist with a Telehealth practice based in Irvine. I am able to see clients statewide. I began practicing in 1982, first as an Intern and fully licensed (LMFT 19383) since July 1984. My emphasis is on marital and family issues, plus I have a special interest and extensive experience with High Functioning Autism / Asperger's Disorder. I have often found that when we make the relationship our primary focus, the relationship often gets worse. When each of us focuses on becoming who we were designed to be, often the relationship gets better.

My style for a 15-year-old Asian female would be different than that of a 70-year-old Hispanic male.
Hi there, I'm Blake, a licensed clinical social worker. I've helped people with many issues like anxiety, depression, personality disorders, grief, divorce, severe mental diagnoses, and many more. I am trained in many different therapies and tailor a plan to each patient, rather than tailoring a patient to a plan. In my view, people used to mostly lived in close-knit communities, which has eroded with the advances in transportation and technology. Most people have lost the social support our forebearers had. Mental Health Professionals have taken on this role and are an excellent resource to improve your well-being.

Every time you talk to your parent you feel invalidated. They’ve always been difficult to deal with, and no matter what you try, each interaction leaves you feeling helpless, overwhelmed, anxious, and angry. You get mad at yourself for getting all worked up. Why can’t you just get over it?! Let things go, everyone says. Yes, growing up with them was hard. You know they were not a perfect parent, and you don’t completely blame them - they grew up with abuse themselves. But, it still affects you? You have your own life, but still feel so hurt by everything that’s happened. You’re worried that it’s causing other problems too.
