I am a forensic psychotherapist that works with families involved in custody disputes with a focus on the best interests for children. My focus with all clients is to find solutions to complex issues. My approach is direct and goal oriented. For psychotherapy, I treat individuals, families, and children. I also hold closed support groups for Recovery from Psychological Abuse (specifically narcissistic abuse). I work extensively with individuals going through divorce. I enjoy working with children and teens in treating depression/ anxiety, Trauma, Introversion/social anxiety, peer issues, and parental conflict/divorce.

I have experience working with all ages on many issues including attachment, anxiety, anger, impulsivity, and low self-esteem. I also work with complex families dealing with family conflict. Therapy provides a safe space that nurtures exploration, reflection, growth and change. I believe that being interactive and having a strong, caring connection with clients is essential to providing successful therapy.

Hi there, I am currently booking for March & April of 2024, please email using the link or text (916) 884-3812. My goal is to create safety in vulnerability, inner acceptance & understanding. I work from an emotionally & trauma focused perspective. I assist clients in understanding current conflict while exploring your past trauma. Much of the work is through the battling the unconscious questions & creating inner awareness. My client's work becomes possible by disabling self-sabotaging situations, defensiveness, childhood wounds & trauma. My wish is for you to create a positive self image. In doing so, the work allows for you

The first step in any journey takes the courage to start. And you already have! You're here. I know there is still a lot of shame around being vulnerable and asking for help. We live in a world that often demands perfection, high expectations, and pushing ourselves to the max. Struggling with depression, anger, or trauma does not make you a failure. It makes you human. I believe we all have the innate ability to heal ourselves, and therapy can support you in finding that clarity and empowerment.

Please note - I am accepting new clients but I do not accept insurance. I specialize in working with children, teenagers, and adults who have experienced trauma, grief, neglect and/or loneliness. Trauma can include a variety of things including physical, emotional, sexual or any other type of abuse, such as being raped or attacked; witnessing or experiencing something terrible such as a car accident or the trauma of combat deployment; the death of a loved one; or many other difficult life experiences. I have also helped numerous members of the LGBTQ community, including those questioning their sexuality and/or gender identity.

I specialize in men’s issues. I've always felt pushed to be a "lone-wolf" and culture told me to "be a man" or "get over it" when it came to my emotions. As men, when we have a problem we deal with it on our own, often by using pornography, drinking, playing video games, or searching elsewhere for affection. We lie, we defend, we run. We constantly look for peace and acceptance, even if it’s temporary or fake. It can feel hard to trust those closest to us and we may think, “No one is going to take care of my needs but me” or "if they really knew me, they wouldn't love me."

Mike likes to work with people who are ready to make changes in their life. They do not need to know exactly what that looks like or means yet, they just need to be sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. Mike enjoys working with people who have depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar, and addiction issues. He also practices couple therapy and likes to offer premarital counseling, empowerment couple's counseling, and helping the healing process post infidelity or other ruptures in the relationship. Mike spent 4 years working with people in an international setting in Tokyo and enjoys providing therapy in a multicultural space.

Hello! We all need to talk to someone, so whether it's me, another therapist, a trusted family member or a friend, I am thankful you want to talk and take care of yourself. I am an easy-going and genuinely curious therapist. My goal is to create a non-judgmental space for clients to explore their issues, gain awareness of any self-limiting patterns, learn helpful skills, and hopefully laugh a little. I believe that with support and guidance, the challenges and transitions we face can become opportunities for personal growth and a chance to re-frame our experiences in a positive way.

I became a therapist because I want to support people as they work to become their truest selves. Change and growth are possible for everyone, no matter what the circumstances are. You are not alone, and there is nothing wrong with you. Whether you have experienced trauma, as many of us have, or whether you simply want to better understand yourself, therapy is an effective tool to get where you want to go.

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.

Hello, my name is April Garcia and I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist. My approach is to support you with personal empowerment so you’re in control of your life with the use of cognitive affective behavioral therapy and with use of the community resiliency model. My approach will consist of supporting you with managing your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The types of clients I typically work with are those who are willing to take a consistent and active desire to work diligently and clients who are willing to attend therapy consistently and on time.

As a therapist, it is my aim to help my clients cultivate the best version of themselves. As we move through life, our experiences may have shifted how we see ourselves and the world around us causing distress within and perhaps between others. I believe that we can effect change by getting to know ourselves on an entirely different level. Holding compassion and empathy for our own struggles is paramount to building back the trust in ourselves which can bring upon more satisfaction in our life. I am passionate about helping my clients connect and understand these parts about themselves to cultivate more harmony, balance and trust.

We all go through emotional storms where we feel emotionally and physically stuck; we worry too much and lose control of ourselves. Do you find yourself thrown off balance by your childhood trauma? Childhood traumatic experiences such as abandonment, abuse, and neglect lead to social anxiety. My approach is solution-focused and tailored to your needs and goals. I am committed to providing a profound sense of safety and offering compassionate and actionable guidance to all my clients.
