LMFT, 32 years of experience
Hi, my name is Gerald Anderson. I am a licensed Therapist in California, an LMFT. I have worked as a therapist for a long time. Helping people from many diverse back grounds. I have worked with couples, individuals, and children, helping them to have the support and the tools to process and work through their problems, marital conflicts. I have also worked with drug involved individuals, who are in recovery and I am familiar with the 12 step process.
In our first session we will talk about your problems or marital issues. I will learn about you, you will learn about me, and together we will work on a treatment plan that you feel comfortable with to address any of the questions you may have about the process of therapy.
I have a great deal of experience understanding emotional and marital issues, and how they block growth both for individuals and for couples.
I have worked with a very diverse background of people.
I use a perspective based approach to couples counseling based on, the work or Robert Selman who developed a developmental approach to counseling and therapy. I Also use a family systems approach as well as ,cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy.
I help couples develop perspectives toward each others emotions, in order to be responsive to their partners needs. This facilitates the development, of a coordinated perspective on their relationship.
I use family therapy, to help families develop appropraite boundaries with each other to discourage conflict, and negative behaviors.
I use this therapy to help clients resolve issues related to PTSD.
