Adults Therapists in Yucca Valley, CA

“Meanings are not determined by situations, but we determine ourselves by the meanings we give to situations.” —Alfred Adler. My approach to therapy is person-centered and trauma informed. I tailor my therapeutic interventions to individual needs through a variety of frameworks and modalities, including psychodynamic, humanistic, family systems, and narrative therapy. I received my BS in Human Services and my MS in Counseling with a concentration in marriage, family, and child therapy from University of Phoenix.

Would you like to feel more fully alive? I come from a mindfulness-based healing perspective integrating body, mind and spirit. Together we explore the "roadblocks" that all of us unknowingly put up which use up our energy, cloud our vision of our life's purpose and prevent us from having authentic, meaningful and fulfilling lives. Healing and an improved sense of well-being can happen!

I am a bilingual therapist who will work with you to develop tools and new coping skills to improve the quality of your life and relationships. My therapeutic skills are eclectic allowing me to meet your needs. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and adolescents. I have a background in education and had worked in different capacities in this field for over twenty-five years. This experience allowed me to work with adolescents and their families. My approach includes developing respectful relationships within the family system through Positive Discipline and open communication improving the family dynamics overall.

I believe that everybody has their own answers but there are times in our lives when we need assistance in discovering those answers. I take a straightforward approach to that exploration and help people advance in life. I specialize in couple's and family communication where assigning blame is replaced with a clearer understanding of each person and more effective ways to convey meaning. All relationships can be repaired if all members are willing to work towards that goal.

Are you seeking a safe space to explore your inner world, heal from past wounds, and discover your full potential? I'm here to accompany you on your journey towards growth, self-discovery, and transformation. I work with people that are struggling with relational and intimacy issues, life transitions, anxiety, grief, depression, ADHD symptoms, and religious trauma. I tailor my therapeutic techniques to meet your unique needs and goals. My approach is grounded in empathy, authenticity, and non-judgment, creating an environment where you can freely express yourself and delve into the depths of your emotions and experiences.

So, how do you find the best therapist for you? That's a great question. And it's one that most people struggle with answering whether it's their first or umpteenth search. Is it the therapist him/herself, their personality, theoretical approach or specialty? While all these factors are important, research shows that roughly 60% of successful therapeutic outcomes are the result of the relationship between the client and therapist. That said, it shouldn't be your responsibility to find the best clinician; rather it's the clinician's responsibility to become the best therapist for you.

Is it time for a change? Do you feel depressed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected? Do past experiences negatively impact the present? Do you need a safe place to feel listened to and supported? The foundation of therapy is the partnership between the therapist and client and I'm passionate about supporting and empowering individuals through life's challenges by providing accessible, high-quality mental health treatment to the high-desert community and those throughout California.

I believe in a person's ability to grow and as a clinician, the experience of guiding another in the process of growth, is invigorating and has fueled my passion for over 40 years in the helping professions. Seeking outside guidance takes courage and is a valuable strength. I am able to help you to discover your self defeating patterns and use your courage and strengths to develop new behaviors and strategies that bring you fulfillment and reach your goals.

We all carry unique burdens of the mind, pains of our history, and cultural programming. It is true that we all experience suffering in one form or another as a natural part of life. It is also true that this suffering can be transformed and transcended. Through this transformation it is possible to experience a more connected relationship with the world within and around us. I am open to serve those experiencing PTSD, depression, anxiety, addiction, chronic pain, and spiritual confusion. I am also open to serving those interested in cultivating meditation and other spiritual practices, and generally enhancing quality of life.

If something painful or confusing is holding you back from the life you want to live, give me a call. I help people figure out what is holding them back and how to move forward.

My aim is to create a caring therapeutic relationship with you that is founded in empathy, trust, and respect. Together we will create a safe and open environment for brave and insightful explorations. I offer collaborative, client-centered therapy that supports the development of personal insights and practical coping skills through curiosity, mindfulness, and compassion.

My name is Jennifer...

I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with trauma, grief, anxiety, depression and negative self-shaming behavior. I believe that our childhood experiences along with cultural and societal narratives and constructs influence how we relate to ourselves and to the world, and force us into believing stories about ourselves that may not be true. You are the agent of change, and I foster personal revolution. Healing occurs when we confront and embrace the parts of ourselves we've neglected.

Struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or addiction? Life's challenges can be overwhelming, but you don't have to face them alone. Whether you're grappling with intense emotions or just need a supportive ear, I'm here to offer the help you need. With extensive experience in guiding individuals, couples, and families, I provide compassionate, personalized support tailored to your unique journey. Together, we’ll uncover new perspectives and strategies to help you thrive
