In Person Therapists in Sonoma, CA

It can take time, effort and courage to call and arrive at a therapist's office. There is the apprehension of what this experience will be like, especially if it is your first time, or perhaps if you are trying again after a previous unsatisfactory experience. After you make the call, and once you begin, there is hope. And that alone is enough to sustain you while you work toward self-understanding and/or improved communication with your mate or children. The investment is worthwhile. The relief can be profound.

Congratulations on taking this step; I would be honored to help. I offer strengths-based, in-person therapy in the Phoenix area, and telehealth in California, using cognitive-behavioral techniques, inner-child work, EMDR and Exposure and Response Prevention. Specializations include Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, PTSD, addiction and recovery, and treating children and adolescents with anxiety. I am well-versed in 12-Step philosophy and love helping people thrive in their sobriety.

What brings you into my office is my first concern. I want to help you resolve your issue(s) as swiftly as possible. To that end, we begin.

Thank you for your interest in my practice. I have over 20 years of clinical experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families. I work to tailor my approach to each individual's specific needs & concerns so that together we can create a path towards healing, empowerment and change. I believe that each person and age-group has different needs within a therapy setting. I utilize play, art, sand, and interactive talk therapy to create a safe, compassionate and dynamic approach to support change.

There are many reasons for seeking therapy, but most often the goal is to feel better, live more fully, or improve coping skills. I believe that effective therapy is tailored to the presenting issue, specific treatment goals, individual temperament as well as an ongoing assessment of effectiveness. My style is one of openness, acceptance, curiosity, respect, optimism, and encouragement.

I offer individual, couples and family therapy that honors the spiritual life of my clients. I specialize in relationship counseling and use Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Kunkel's We Psychology in my work. I welcome clients of all faiths and those who are spiritual but not religious. I am a Psychotherapist member of the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education and a Presbyterian pastor. My life-long interest in spirituality has included study in world religions, prayer, meditation and depth psychology. My training in behavioral science and theology supports an integrated approach to creative work and healthy relationships.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in Napa County, providing in-depth psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and teenagers. My approach is warm, engaged and interactive. I draw from psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral theories. I synthesize education, personal growth and psychological treatment for a wide variety of challenges, such as, depression; anxiety; marital discord; co-parenting; and 'positive' parenting. I have been trained through The Couples Institute with Ellen Bader, focusing on the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy and integrating Attachment Theory.

I collaborate with individuals and couples to change old, destructive patterns into mutually beneficial ways of relating. With presence, curiosity & humor, I offer a healing relationship as the path toward greater self-acceptance, fulfillment & freedom. I help you ground in your innate capacity to feel more in charge of your life, which includes being able to identify and express your feelings, needs & desires. My practice is oriented toward: emotional experience; people in the midst of life transitions, including new parents and parents of older children; those experiencing grief; & individuals who have previously been in therapy.

Everyone experiences difficulties at times, including problems that we create for ourselves and troubles we have in responding to the opportunities and challenges in life. These may be problems in love or work, symptoms such as phobias, panic attacks, or extreme shyness, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic reactions, or self-destructive impulses.

My practice is unique because I combine talk therapy with a powerful and gentle form of energy work called Soul Lightening Acupressure. I guide clients to focus on what arises naturally from their inner selves – physical sensations, emotions, thoughts, images – and together we use this inner wisdom as a guide for what needs healing and attention. The energy work will help you feel calm, centered, grounded, and connected with your higher self. As we allow the energy that is stuck in the body from trauma or stress to flow freely again, old patterns of thoughts and behaviors can clear, insights arise, and lasting healing can occur.
