Personality Disorders Therapists in Orange, CA

I don't believe there is an ideal client. I believe everyone is different and needs someone to realize that their experiences are unique and important. A client needs someone who is not going place a label them or follow only the lessions we learned in graduate school. Someone who is going to listen and help guide them to the best solution for them. As your Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), my commitment is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore your emotions and experiences. Your well-being is my top priority, and I am honored to support you every step of the way.

I'm a clinical and forensic psychologist and certified Jungian analyst, over 30 years experience providing treatment and assessment, both depth-oriented and forensic. My practice is guided by my awareness of the instrumental nature of the unconscious in all that we are and do.

Hey there, I’m Rhapsody. Is it hard to get out of bed some days? Does it feel like a huge task to even brush your teeth? Do you miss family functions or friend activities because you’re feeling too anxious?

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Pain and grief are universal. How we deal with it and heal sets us apart from each other. Sometimes, we get stuck and can't see how to move. It's like standing in a dark room with a flashlight but no idea where to point it and in what direction to walk. I am here to say you are not alone; together, we can work on bringing the light back to those dark rooms. Raised in Los Angeles, I moved to Orange County and attended Hope International University, receiving my Masters In Marriage and Family Therapy. I began working as a therapist with under-resourced families and working with substance abuse clients

Exhausted by the way you think about yourself? We are often (if not always) our own worst enemies. Whether this has caused you problems with guilt, shame, anxiety, depression, addiction or you name it - the starting point is generally the same. When we embark on the project of therapy you will be asked to put your painful thoughts and feelings into words. As the process unfolds, the strength and fervor used to overthink and condemn yourself will become accessible to use productively in reaching your goals.

I’m Dr. Stephanie White, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology. I have advanced clinical training in performing counseling and psychotherapy at the outpatient, acute, and partial hospitalization levels of care.

Finding a therapist to entrust your story to can be a difficult and delicate process. It is my hope that I can create a comfortable and supportive environment where you will feel safe to share your concerns and hopes. I have a relational and sensitive approach, where I partner with you to address your concerns and work towards healing and growth. Therapy can provide a place to feel known and understood, where challenges can be faced and overcome. In this growth process, I strive to help my clients find fulfillment and take healthy steps towards a stronger sense of self.

You’re interested in therapy but can’t stand the stiff who sits there silently nodding. You’ve been feeling stuck or unhappy, and need someone to help you regain some clarity in your life. It can be frustrating when you repeat old patterns that get you nowhere, and you don’t even know how to change it. It might be the mindless hum drum of work, not getting your ass off the couch to do that thing (getting in shape, starting that business you’ve been wanting to, breaking up with Joe Shmoe… why am I with him again?). Maybe everything seems okay, but you’re feeling empty, anxious, depressed, or constantly irritable.

Growth is a lifelong process that leads to feelings of freedom and a new understanding of our inner selves, yet can be a painful and daunting pursuit. Even when we identify patterns that are problematic we can often get in our own way of change due to our fear of living past hurts and resentments. Healing comes from both new experiences that mend past injury and correct patterns which stem from childhood.
