Building self-awareness is often a hard place to start. I meet my patients where they are in their journey and support the process. Sometimes taking the first step to explore psychotherapy is confusing. Ask questions so you can find a therapist who is the right fit for you. My approach meets people where they are presently, to determine where they want to be in the future. I like to get to know my new patients to determine their needs in treatment.

Hi I am a licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in California. I offer in person sessions in Stockton California and also teletherapy health options. Together, we will identify your challenges and goals - where you want your life to be a month, six months, a year from now. Then, we'll identify options and strategies you can use to get there. You'll leave the session with a better understanding of what you're facing with an "actions I can take right now" approach. There will always be room for suggestions concerning our work together, including keeping each other accountable.

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.

I then became a Mental Health Therapist after attending Smith College School for Social Work where I received clinical training focused on healing complex trauma. I offer individual and group therapy services that honor and center Black and other POC communities who have historically been denied access to strength-based, empowering and culture-affirming mental health care.

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, or body sensations. In some ways, it's like a shared meditation.

I am originally from South Africa and have an innate ability to connect with people from different cultures. I am committed to providing a safe and trusting environment, which is the core foundation of my work with clients. ​I work with adults and teenagers who are dealing with depression anxiety, grief, hopelessness and other mental illnesses. I help clients experiencing panic attacks/anxiety using the application of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). ​As a cancer survivor, I understand all aspects of being a patient. I am passionate about helping clients cope with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. In addition to working at Grow Therapy, I run a private practice in Encino. I have also worked as the Clinical Director at A Home Within, an organization that connects foster children with therapists in private practice. Their motto: "One child, one therapist, for as long as it takes." My work at Safe Harbor, an Intensive Outpatient and Dual Diagnosis Facility was where I saw families and individuals and guided weekly teenage groups for self-harm. I completed my traineeship at Hillview Mental Health, an outpatient facility for clients representing a full spectrum of mental illnesses. I ran groups and worked with clients individually. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from California State University, Northridge and a Masters in Psychology from Phillips Graduate University.

Hi, I’m Sydney Petersen, a trauma-informed, EMDR-trained, and neurodiverse-affirming Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Healing takes place in spaces where we are truly seen, heard, and understood. I pursued marriage and family therapy to create these spaces for those who often don't experience this kind of emotional support. We all need a place to grapple with what we carry; the joy, the loss, the triumph, the suffering, the heartbreak the "this is not what I expected" moments, or the "this is not what I had planned" thoughts. If this sounds like you, I would love to join your journey and help you find more restoration and peace.

You are grieving, heartbroken, or lost. You didn’t get the job, you broke up with your partner, someone important has died. Grief is normal and exquisite and painful. You want to talk about it, but you don’t want to burden anyone. Here you have permission to be a burden. To be messy, seen, repetitive, and stuck. I’ll meet you there, but won’t leave you there. We work towards managing the unimaginable. Reckoning with the stories we tell and the paths lost, in order to reconcile with where we truly are. There you will find possibility. New stories, new love, new hope. There you will find the courage to start again.

You don’t have to struggle alone! I look forward to the opportunity to work collaboratively with you in your journey in discovering how to make positive changes, decrease negative behaviors and thoughts, and help improve your mood and engagement with life! In our hectic world we often find ourselves afraid to take risks that could jeopardize the stable lives we have created for ourselves. We remain in jobs, relationships and old patterns that no longer work, while symptoms such as anxiety, depression, stress, anger and self-defeating patterns keep us from making real changes to our lives. If that sounds like you, you are stuck. We can feel lost and alone when we are unable to move forward, whether in work or a personal relationship. Therapy can help you break free of that and thrive. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a focus on teens, adults, and couples. I have worked with clients on concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and family reunification. I received my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. I also minored in sociology.

I help people overcome issues that might prevent them from leading healthy, fulfilled lives. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, and Client Focused therapy as well. It takes courage to start therapy, but I have seen those who do and apply themselves, come out with a greater understanding of self, and many times with new tools to help them relate better with others in their lives. I look forward to helping you on your “Therapy Journey.”

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California. I have been practicing since my graduation from Antioch University in 2019, and I have been licensed since May of 2023. 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. I believe that we, as humans, as we heal, turn our scars into our strongest assets. My passion lies in uncovering the scars, helping you to heal, and witnessing the transformation as they become the strongest part of you.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 10 years of clinical experience. The focus of my work is individually with adult females and adolescents.

I utilize a strength-based and cognitive behavioral approach that will assist in the development of an authentic relationship with myself and others. My goal is to welcome clients into a safe space, providing support, while assisting them in the process of navigating and overcoming emotional hardships. As a clinician, I partner with my clients in their journey of healing. My clinical orientation is specialized in the areas of women’s issues, relational/interpersonal dynamics, attachment issues, self-esteem issues, anxiety, depression, general stress, and overcoming trauma. I am currently trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Informed-Trauma Care, Seeking Safety, Behavioral Modification, Solution-Focused Therapy and Collaborative Problem-Solving Strategies. It would be my pleasure to come alongside you on your journey and assist in cultivating a brave space of restorative growth.
