Therapists in Riverside, CA
Hi, I'm Kelly Steiner, LMFT 37215, and have been working as a therapist for over 25 years. I provide a safe space to help you in working through some of the things that may be holding you back from finding joy, moving forward, or finding healthy connections. I have worked with all types of clients of all ages with varied reasons they are seeking out treatment. A comforting, safe, non-judgmental place where they feel valued. I recognize how difficult it can be to ask for help from a stranger, so I want to project a warm atmosphere where the session is all about them.

I am a true believer that it takes a village to make it in this world. However, many people don’t have that in their lives and need guidance and support from outside sources, which I have done for over 20 years as a psychotherapist and community leader. Counseling individuals, families, and marriages, I help resolve conflicts, identify patterns of symptoms, strengthen relationships, pursue new adventures, and increase self-awareness. Through the therapeutic bond, clients have an opportunity to trust me and create a deeper relationship with themselves.

After a career in finance, including stints in investment banking and mortgage securitization, I decided that I needed a career that was more about people and less about spreadsheets. To that end, I completed training to become a mental health counselor, which is now my chosen profession. Becoming an ally to those working to make meaningful personal change or just navigate life’s challenges more peacefully has proven to be a profoundly rewarding career decision.

Are you tired, overwhelmed, or constantly feeling on edge? Has the stress and anxiety over the past couple of years left you feeling lost, frustrated, or hopeless? Is your self-esteem struggling, always striving to measure up to a seemingly impossible set of standards? Has your anxiety or depression kept you away from social activities, engaging in things you once loved, or caused relationship struggles with those you love most? Does your life seem to be one big emotional roller coaster? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are not alone. Life has been difficult to navigate for pretty much everyone (myself included).

When things start to feel like they are too much, do you bottle up your emotions? Or maybe you explode? Do you find that as much as you try to move on, your past experiences still hold you back? Maybe you’ve recently gone through something difficult and it feels like you can’t get back to yourself. Maybe you say yes to everyone because you’re afraid what will happen if you say no - leaving your needs on the back burner. Maybe you’re worried about your child. Maybe you and your spouse are struggling to communicate. Maybe your brain runs a mile a minute and you can’t slow it down. Whatever the case, you want to feel better.
