15 therapists in California matching your needs

Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. I received my Master's from California State University, Bakersfield, and I have a Ph.D. in MFT from Amridge University (Montgomery, AL). I have been seeing clients since 2013. In my systems-based work, I look for root causes of emotional reactivity and maladaptive behaviors that interfere with healthy relationship functioning.

I am a client-centered professional with 15 years of experience providing broad mental health services to diverse populations of children, adolescents, adults, and families. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified art therapist with specialization in utilizing multiple evidence-based modalities to address substance abuse, dual diagnoses, depression, anxiety, trauma, and domestic violence.

My name is Jacob Garel, a licensed marriage and family therapist with a unique background in the military as a Pararescueman. With 20 years of experience serving and saving lives, I bring a deep understanding of crisis situations and a passion for helping individuals and families in need. Specializing in psychodynamic, Rogerian, and existential approaches. Whether it's grief work, PTSD therapy, or accompanying you on your mental health journey, I am dedicated to walking beside you every step of the way.

My clients return over the years as life brings new challenges. They trust the work we have done because they have learned to trust who they are. Most of them wonder at first why I focus on the call of the heart. Why I invite them to play. And to make friends with parts of themselves they have been told to get rid of. And it shocks them when they discover they can learn to answer the call of the heart. Because i am older and have a broad spectrum of lived experience as well as an integrative approach, what I have to offer springs more directly from the deep unheard yearning of each unique client, than from one size fits all techniques. The deeper we go the more fun we have.

My name is April Cobb. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I'm here to assist, encourage and support you on your mental health healing journey. I create a supportive environment for clients to share, find acceptance and move towards the change and life you wish to see. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one approach I use in session. I believe in this approach because I believe if you can change your thoughts, your behavior will also change. I'm here to help you navigate the process.

Hello, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I work in private practice. This is my dream career and I believe that being allowed into someone's private thoughts and the workings of their life is a sacred place. I am convinced that this is your journey and as such you make the decisions and have autonomy. I am here to offer objectivity and possibly options. No judgment here.

There are literally hundreds of therapy approaches. And yet, effective treatment is like learning to ride a bicycle: No matter what kind it is, you have to hop on and pedal if you want to get anywhere! I specialize in focused, experiential psychotherapy. That means together we pay direct attention to your authentic and palpable experience in session, including feelings, thoughts, discomfort, and body sensations. In some ways, it's like a shared meditation.

My experience with multiple challenges in life, and recovery from those challenges gives me a unique perspective and helps me to better serve my clients. The Japanese art form Kintsugi, meaning to mend with gold, takes broken pieces of pottery and repairs the cracks with precious metals. The fractures then become stronger than the solid areas.

My passion lies in uncovering the scars, helping you to heal, and witnessing the transformation as they become the strongest part of you.
