Hello there! I am Marlene Wendel, a telehealth-based LCSW working out of Santa Rosa, California. I'm here to help you heal through your challenges with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and PTSD. Over these past 9 years of my career, I have been focusing more and more on helping my clients shed burdens from the past and gain a sense of mastery in their lives. I use modern and effective approaches like EMDR, IFS, ACT, CBT, mindfulness, and somatic tools which, in combination, really get at the source of our stuck-ness to find that there's a healthy, centered sense of self inside us that can meet the challenges of life.

Are you are feeling overwhelmed or stuck? Is your life not working as well as you would like? Are you feeling stressed or experiencing negative relationship patterns? I can help. Sometimes clients know exactly what they need, and sometimes it isn't clear. Together we will identify your goals and priorities and then I can help create a clear path to healing. My desire is to provide a place where clients can share freely and be true to themselves.

Psychotherapy can offer a process to better understand the relationship between our thoughts, feelings (emotions and physiology), and behaviors. I work with people from all walks of life and specialize in treating anxiety, depression, grief/loss, trauma, career/identity issues, and adjustment difficulties related to life transitions and illness. Some of my therapeutic goals include helping clients manage symptoms of distress with healthier coping, improving relationships (with self and others), and exploring the ways in which current problems may be linked to unresolved issues from the past.

I am an experienced clinical psychologist specializing in teens and young adults, ages 14 and up.

My name is Mike Godby, and I am a psychotherapist with a master's degree in clinical psychology. I have been trained in relationships with myself and others. Many of my clients have issues with family, friends' bosses, and spouses. I use an approach of uncovering the self. When a person begins to know themselves. it's possible to have the right relationships with others because they have taken responsibility for themselves and have the clarity to decide who is in their inner circle. I use a gentle approach derived from over 50 years of meditation. I invite you to uncover yourself. Mike

We are the therapy office for people who don't like therapy. Our belief is that therapy doesn't have to be the uncomfortable, somewhat formal experience that most people expect. We have 2 therapy dogs, Jackson and Larry to greet you when you come in the door. Larry is Jackson's understudy and is still quite ..well ... enthusiastic in greeting clients (as long as you're not the mailman). For privacy, we have no on Mendocino Ave, but once you get inside you'll know that you're in the right place. We talk to you like one human to another to help you sort out what's going on in your world and how we can help.
