Compassionate, and Integrative. Welcome! My approach to well-being and psychological health is influenced by over 15 years of experience applying science and best practices, and is also inspired by holistic psychologies that can be described as compassionate and genuine. This experience integrates "what works", along with an emphasis on authenticity and personal growth. Goals range from reduction of symptoms, improving day-to-day functioning (work/school), or exploring and uncovering parts of our deeper selves.

Couples and relationships are at the heart of my practice. People seeking peace and wholeness within distressing relationships often face anxiety and or depression. I combine my training, using a diverse collection of trauma informed techniques, with my gifts as a therapist. I work collaboratively with couples and individuals to surface triggers that may be contributing to their distress. We’ll explore your patterns and explore new ways of relating to yourself and others.

Silicon Valley can be a stressful place to live. Sometimes, the demands of living and working in this area rob us of the passion we once had. If you are feeling pulled in too many directions...if you are feeling like your needs take a backseat to everything else in your life: kids, work, older parents, spouse, then I would like to help. You can feel like you once did, full of LIFE and PASSION. Running on empty can lead to depression, anxiety, relationship drama, and health problems. You can feel better, even THRIVE, while meeting life's challenges with ease.

You wake up each morning unsatisfied. You are aware that you are not living up to your full potential while anxiety, depression, trauma or stress are preventing you from realizing your true nature. Your relationships might feel inauthentic or limited and you are craving a deeper connection to yourself, others and life. You are thirsty for meaning, purpose, joy and peace and have noticed that your own thoughts and emotions are interfering with your experience. You are ready to learn how to forgive and love yourself and others while drinking in this life one moment at a time.

Frustrated by your relationships or feeling like you live life on everyone else's terms but your own?
I am a warm, interactive partner in solution-focused conversation cradled with a sense of deep optimism which comes from both my professional training and from being a fellow traveler in negotiating life's challenges. I quickly assess what my clients needs are and provide concrete understanding, tools, skills, and solutions for their circumstances. I help you build inner resilience and self-esteem in the same way you boost your immune system when you feel worn down.

I know that we are living in unique and challenging times. It can sometimes be difficult to navigate the life stressors that come our way, especially when those stressors lead to disruptions in our ability to cope and function the way we wish to. I understand the importance we place on developing and maintaining strong and supportive interpersonal relationships with our families, our children, our partners, and our communities. I also am a strong believer in the need to have a therapist who can listen, support, and offer you real tools to manage stressors and mental health issues.

Hello. My name is Susan Lambrose and I am an LMFT and have been practicing in California for the past 14 years. I believe that one of the most important aspects of therapy is to create a safe space for clients to explore and express the challenges they are facing in their lives and the things they would most like to change. A good client/therapist relationship is key in this journey that will lead to inner clarity and the establishment and accomplishment of your own personal goals.

We are surrounded by feedback, sometimes even dependent on it. Everyone has an opinion for us. Perhaps you have become so accustomed to the sounds of other voices speaking into your life that you aren’t even sure what your own voice sounds like anymore. Finding a place where you can be truly heard, without the pressure of taking on someone else’s “should” for your life, can be a struggle.

You're feeling motivated to better understand yourself, why these things are happening, and to learn skills to improve your mood and the quality of your relationships.

Challenging situations can be nudges for you to take time and look inside to recognize them as opportunities to heal, grow, and to make changes needed to break free from feeling stuck, lead a more satisfying life, heal relationships, and bring you back to feeling like yourself again. Whether you're having some 'difficult to feel' or painful emotions, childhood trauma, feeling stuck in a relationship, going through a life transition, or just the uncertainty and stress of the world, therapy can be a wonderful place to begin to take time for yourself.

I work with adults, teens and children as young as 3 years old. My work with children relies heavily on play and metaphor to unlock deeper layers of a child's psyche. Teenagers tend to need a safe, private space and having someone understand what they are going through and providing supportive listening and feedback. Adult therapy often explores strengths, core wounding, the private inner narrative, the stories we tell ourselves, and the energies we have carried with us possibly since birth. I find that often, seemingly maladaptive behaviors are simply ways we have learned to get our needs met and survive in a complicated world.

Our human experience can be incredibly painful; we all have times of stress, sadness, struggle, and disconnection. How we manage what we do, where we focus, and how we are within ourselves can be pivotal to our healing and our ability to create a life that feels rich and meaningful. I use a connected, relational approach to explore the past and present to help clients develop new skills to open to emotions, turn the volume down on unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and to define and do what really matters. Please know you do not have to figure things out alone.

I work mostly in couple therapy because I believe in the power of romantic connection to bring happiness, fulfillment, and comfort to life. If you are not getting along with your partner, you may be frustrated, lonely, angry, or sad. I can help you find the friendship and love you once had. I offer premarital counseling and remarriage counseling to help you realize the dreams you have of your life together. If you are still looking for a special someone, I can help you remove the roadblocks that may stand in your way.
