Bipolar (BPD) Therapists in Sacramento, CA

I bring both professional knowledge and lived experience to my work as a therapist. Living with a Bipolar I diagnosis has given me firsthand insight into the challenges of navigating mental health systems, stigma, and the ways these experiences can affect identity, relationships, and everyday life. This perspective allows me to meet each client with empathy, genuine curiosity, and respect for the meaning they make of their experiences. I am a shamanic clinician, which has been largely shaped and inspired by experiences with what’s often referred to as mania or psychosis. Perception is central to my therapeutic approach. Our histories, emotions, environments, and nervous-system states can all influence what we notice, how we interpret events, and how we respond. By exploring these patterns without judgment, I help clients expand their awareness, consider new perspectives, and develop greater choice in how they relate to themselves and the world around them. My professional experience includes psychiatric residential treatment, addiction medicine, youth detention, and private practice. I integrate somatic and sensory-based approaches (including brainspotting, meditation, drumming, sound therapy, aromatherapy, guided visualization, and shamanic-inspired practices) to support emotional processing and nervous-system regulation. I also emphasize nature, nutrition, sleep hygiene, and other foundations of whole-person wellness.

Reaching out for help is not always easy, I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge and honor your courage to reach out for help.

Hello! I'm Heidi and I have been a therapist for 32 years now. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have found this career in counseling and mental health because I love this work. That I get to help others along the way, is an absolute bonus! For much of my career I have been working with clients suffering from chronic mental illness. But I also have over 10 years of experience running a highly successful private practice as well. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the LGBTQ community, sexual abuse survivors, folks with dissociative identity disorder and clients who struggle with depression and personality disorders.

I encourage mental health and promote healthy relationships through behavioral activation, introspection, and authenticity to achieve long-term goals, including real intimacy by connection in your life starting from a core of self-love. The awareness and insight created in therapy facilitates change through self-realization, growth through self-actualization and all while living authentically as your true self in the present moment; free from the traumas of the past or the fears for the future and at peace in full acceptance with your thoughts. If you're ready to dive down the rabbit hole with me, I'm your therapist! I practice solutions-focused therapy by integrating free association, behavioral activation, narrative therapy and trauma processing to promote self-awareness; psychoeducation, including CBT/DBT Mindfulness skills development to help clients manage symptoms to triggers for anxiety, panic attacks, OCD compulsions and depression. I have extensive experience working with children, k-12 and college students, adults of all ages, parents, couples, LGBTQ+ and families of all backgrounds!

Do you find yourself spending nights awake worrying about things you can't control? Do you feel constantly stressed about the future and overwhelmed by self-doubt? Are you missing out on events or relationships because of your panic or anxiety? Maybe you're a member of the LBGTQ+ community who feels unsafe in a world of unsettling news or exhausted by trying to conform to society's expectations of you. Do you find yourself "triggered" and have a difficult time managing anger or rage? Are you always on alert wondering if you'll ever feel peaceful again? You struggle to leave the past where it belongs. Or maybe you feel trapped in a job or career that you once loved but now takes more than it offers. Does that work stress spill over into your personal life? If any of these experiences resonate with you, you've arrived at the right place. I'm genuinely delighted you're here. Are you prepared to start your journey toward feeling connected, self-assured, and empowered? I specialize in helping adults with crushing anxiety, trauma, parenting issues and members of the LGBTQ+ community get their groove back and live the lives they deserve. Consider me your expert guide and unwavering advocate. Together, we'll pinpoint your goals and use a tailored blend of therapeutic techniques to help you achieve them.

Whether you're addressing past trauma, navigating the complexities of parenthood, or facing any other personal challenges, I am here to provide a safe space to process emotions and offer an alternative perspective.

I have been licensed for 35 years. I received my degree in clinical psychology from George Fox University. I specialize in PTSD, depression and anxiety. I use EMDR and CBT to address trauma. I enjoy helping people discover stories they have been living that no longer work for them. Hope is an essential quality to have as you embrace new narratives and ways of being in the world. I am committed to honesty and compassion as you discover new ways of being. I employ a style that is relational and collaborative. Faith has been an important part of my journey and I am comfortable incorporating that into your work if you desire.

Hi, I'm Sondos and I’m dedicated to providing a warm and inclusive space for individuals of all backgrounds. With a lens of trauma-informed care, I offer support to navigate life’s challenges with compassion and understanding. I tailor my approach depending on each client and pull from various theories including DBT, CBT, psychodynamic, and narrative. I don't believe there is a "one-size fits all" approach in therapy and am happy to find a style that best matches your needs!

Hello! Hi! I'm a licensed therapist with 12 years of expertise and experience providing services in California and Michigan. I received my Masters from Antioch University, Los Angeles. I help young adults, adults and couples struggling with depression, anxiety, fatigue and any one of a variety of other challenges. Clients who engage in sessions realize less worry, sadness and stress. The goal is for you to have an improved experience of living and better relationships with yourself and others.

Hi, I'm James. I believe therapy should ultimately help create meaningful change. What change looks like is different for everyone. Whether you're beginning therapy for the first time, returning after time away, or realizing that something in your life isn't working the way you'd like, I would be glad to explore that with you. As a Marriage and Family Therapist and Supervisor with 15 years of experience, I've had the privilege of working with people across a wide range of backgrounds, and levels of need. Much of my career has been spent serving and leading in community mental health, where I saw how our mental health can be shaped not only by our history, but by our families, communities, cultures, and the world around us. I am comfortable working with experiences that are often described as "high acuity," including significant trauma, depression, anxiety, and psychosis. I am equally interested in the quieter things that can make life harder than it needs to be, like the nagging doubts, persistent insecurities, difficult relationships, or old patterns that no longer serve you. Whatever brings you here, you don't need to have it figured out before we begin. My role is to listen, take your experiences seriously, and work alongside you to better understand what's happening and to facilitate change. I will honor your story and your pace while helping you move toward change that feels meaningful and authentic to you.

I’m a warm, direct, and down-to-earth therapist who believes therapy should feel like a genuine human relationship rather than a cold or overly clinical experience. My approach is rooted in feminist and existential therapy, which means we’ll look not only at what you’re experiencing internally, but also at how relationships, family patterns, societal expectations, identity, and your lived experiences have shaped you. I value humor, curiosity, honesty, and creating a space where you don’t have to edit yourself. My goal isn’t to tell you how to live your life, but to help you understand yourself more deeply, recognize patterns that may no longer serve you, and build a life that feels authentic and meaningful to you.

I am a licensed psychologist with extensive experience working with adults experiencing a wide range of mental health, relationship, stress, and life-transition concerns. My approach is practical, collaborative, and individualized, drawing primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, supportive psychotherapy, and skills-based interventions. I strive to provide a comfortable and nonjudgmental space where clients can better understand the patterns affecting their lives, develop effective coping strategies, and make meaningful, lasting changes.

I consider myself a relational and systems-based therapist. That means that I value discussing relationships and the impact of them on you. I also seek to understand my client as a whole person and not just your symptoms. At the heart of my work is the belief that the therapeutic relationship itself is meaningful and often mirrors patterns that show up outside the therapy room. Together, we will explore these dynamics with curiosity and compassion and without judgment. I deeply value your goals and concerns, and I also believe therapy is a space where thoughtful, honest feedback can be both empowering and healing. Above all, my goal is for therapy to feel collaborative and supportive.

I help my clients realize their personal goals through a trauma-informed and empathic approach. My expertise is working with people who have experienced a traumatic event and/or are experiencing mental health struggles/issues, helping them uncover obstacles that hinder their ability to reach their fullest potential. My lived experience brought me to help others as I would have loved to be helped: someone to tell me I’m not alone. Life is hard, and traumas become unbearable without someone in your corner to help process what you have been through.

I have a passion for learning, helping and growing with you. We are social beings, each with our own story, unique abilities, and personal struggles; let’s stop being alone with the things we have been told are “weird” or “bad,” let’s find a way to be both our best selves and best for others around us. We are not defined by our mistakes, and we are not defined by a diagnosis. We choose how we take control of ourselves presently and in the future.

I aim to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change.

My name is Megan, not “therapist Megan,” just Megan. I am an authentic individual who genuinely strives to meet people where they are and support them on their life journey. In sessions, I approach each person with empathy, compassion, and a solution-focused mindset, providing psychoeducation and guidance to help them achieve their goals. Above all, I value the therapeutic relationship, built on a foundation of trust and non-judgment.

I enjoy working collaboratively to develop goals that are realistic, meaningful, and lead to positive change. I view therapy as a journey—one that helps you find steadier footing and supports you as you move along your unique path. Although much of my background has been in public service settings working with severe mental illness, acute crises, and trauma, I welcome concerns of any size. No problem is too small or too overwhelming to bring into therapy. I invite you to give the therapy process a chance to work for you! I have been in the behavioral health field for more than 30 years and have been licensed since 2012. I have a practical, down-to-Earth style with an open-minded, solution focused approach. There is likely no issue too complicated or difficult for me to work with. I like to establish a clear treatment path with attainable goals, making it easier for you. I encourage you to give the therapy process a chance to work for you. My goal is to offer steady support and thoughtful guidance as you discover a healing path that truly fits your life. While life can be challenging, you don’t have to navigate it alone—therapy can provide a safe space to find clarity, resilience, and hope.

Hello! I am a Marriage and Family Therapist, licensed in California. I have almost three decades of working with families, adolescents, and young adults who have experienced a wide range of challenges. Mood issues, anxiety, various traumas or general disappointments are experiences that we all often experience. Life transitions happen. Therapy can be useful as you learn how to navigate through various experiences.

Do you feel like you have the insight but don’t quite know what to do with it- how to process it or heal? You are not alone. I help individuals and couples move beyond the surface to work through what is keeping them stuck. I use IFS, EMDR and other modalities to connect you to your wounds, unprocessed memories, and blocks. Together, we set to discover the parts of you that hold pain and unlock your full potential by exploring what is holding you back. Couples: If it feels like you’re speaking different languages or having the same argument over and over, you may be stuck in a negative cycle that’s hard to see from the inside. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), rooted in attachment theory, to help partners reconnect, communicate vulnerably, and rebuild. Oftentimes, what stands in our way is fear because we have a deeply rooted need to feel safe. I understand. It’s much easier to stay in something comfortable than to risk the unknown; our minds and bodies are wired that way. My hope is to reflect your strength and worth, and to provide a safe, trusting space where you can feel seen, heard, and valued.

Are you sick and tired of the same patterns and routines? Do you feel overwhelmed and find it difficult to keep up with your work, relationships, and health? Are you feeling stuck because of your anxiety and depression? Do you struggle with making it through the day or having a healthy work/life balance? Is your inability to manage emotions and stress impacting your daily life? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Whether you're dealing with feeling overwhelmed, relationship issues, unresolved issues from childhood, work dissatisfaction and burnout, or cycles of anxiety and depression... I'm here to help.

Throughout my carrier, I have worked with clients with a variety of issues and from all socio-economic, cultural and religious backgrounds.

Hi! I'm Dr. Chelsea Acker, a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise working with children and adolescents. I'm experienced with a range of concerns, but I have specialized training in treating trauma, suicidality, and early psychosis. In 2019, I graduated from the PAU-Stanford PsyD Consortium, where I trained at the Stanford School of Medicine's psychiatry department and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital's program at a local high school. I attended internship (our version of residency, more or less) at the UC Davis Medical Center, where I received world-class training in the treatment of childhood trauma and early psychosis, both separately and together. I then completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the Chicago Child Trauma Center, where I continued to build my expertise in the treatment of childhood trauma. After that, I worked at Kaiser Permanente, Oakland, for two and a half years, where I specialized in working with children and adolescents with complex, persistent symptom presentations, who had often been hospitalized multiple times for safety concerns and struggled to make progress with previous therapists.

I use evidence-based modalities such as DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and systems-based work, always tailored to your goals and lived experience. Therapy with me is about gaining insight, building skills, and creating real, sustainable change.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in California. I received my bachelor's degree from Cornell University, a master's degree from the State University of New York (SUNY) system, another master's from the University of New Mexico, and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of New Mexico. I've trained at three Veteran's Affairs hospitals (most recently VA Puget Sound) and completed my residency at Kaiser Permanente in Northern California. I've co-authored more the 25 scholarly articles, chapters for medical textbooks, and symposia at national conferences, worked on a number of research grants funded by the National Institutes of Health, and have been providing psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and groups since 2014.

Welcome! My name is Nathan Taylor and I’d like to thank you for taking the time to look over my profile and to learn a little about me as a therapist. Choosing a therapist can be challenging (and maybe even more than a little anxiety provoking!) and it is important to take the time to find someone that you feel may be a good fit to work with towards helping you achieve your goals in therapy. With that in mind, I wanted to share a little about myself and my own path as a therapist. Should you feel like we may be a good fit, I genuinely look forward to meeting and hopefully working with you. Each of our own personal experiences, dreams, goals, hopes, and needs, both in life and in therapy are unique and individual. You may know exactly what those are for you, or you may feel like you are lost and overwhelmed. Either way, my role is to help you along your own path. To help define what you are struggling with and to take the steps that are needed to work through those struggles and challenges. Whatever your reason is for seeking therapy, know that it can be an incredibly valuable tool towards finding what it is that you are looking for. I’ve been in the mental health field in one way or another for well over 20 years, working with children, families, couples, and adults, both in the public sector and in private practice. While I started my career working with children in group homes, foster care, and in the legal system, my passion as a therapist has taken me in many directions. I’ve worked for many years as both a clinical supervisor for new and learning therapists and as an upper-level manager/administrator in the public mental health sector. Most recently, in addition to my work in private practice I ran several types of community mental health programs, both outpatient and inpatient, for a large behavioral health company providing mental healthcare to adults. I became a licensed therapist in 2008, yet I’m constantly learning, growing, and developing every day in order to become the best therapist that I can be. It’s my belief that it is an honor and privilege to work with people as a therapist to help each person in the way that they need. Over the years, I’ve received several advanced trainings and certifications that I’ve pursued to obtain the skill sets needed to specialize in a few areas that I believe are tremendously effective and helpful to those I work with. I’ve found that EMDR, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and Hypnotherapy are the types of therapy work and interventions that are not only backed by research as highly effective, but also really resonate with those that I work with. As with anything in therapy, there is no one-size fits all approach, and I find it most valuable to help create a treatment approach in complete collaboration with you. As an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) trained therapist, I've found this evidenced-based approach to therapy to be particularly effective with people for a wide variety of reasons, and as such EMDR is my current primary specialty. As EMDR therapy has gained a significant amount of positive attention lately, this may be something you're familiar with, heard about and would like to know more, or it's all together new to you. I'd be more than happy to share additional information with you about EMDR should you be interested in learning more. Again, thank you for taking the time to learn a bit more about me. You’ve found the courage to get this far, let’s see how much further we can get together!

My passion for therapy is rooted in a deep desire to connect with others. Growing up in a family rich in cultural diversity, I have had the privilege of hearing stories from relatives of various backgrounds, which sparked my curiosity and appreciation for different perspectives. This experience has inspired me to continually learn about others—their thoughts, motivations, and unique journeys. I believe my purpose is to support clients as they strive to reach their fullest potential. For me, being a therapist means walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they navigate challenges and embrace growth. It is both an honor and a privilege to serve my community in this meaningful way.

Warm Welcome - I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has been working with California based clients for over 9 years. I have experience working in various treatment settings including community mental health centers, addiction treatment centers, and psychiatric hospitals. I also oversaw a partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient program, specific for college students, within the hospital setting. Outside of therapy, my professional background includes working in university settings both in administration and as an educator. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with issues related to, but not limited to, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, relational issues, addiction, and burnout.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in practice in the Inland Empire area since 2014. I believe real change is a gradual evolution (hence my practice name Gentle Evolutions), and there are often many stops along the way. I bring a lot of warmth and genuine curiosity to that process, while also keeping sessions rooted in your therapy goals. I acknowledge the vulnerability that comes with sharing your story and identity with others and aim to create a space where you feel able to share 100% of what is coming to your mind. I provide stability for clients through the difficult times and ensure that we also celebrate the small successes in the therapeutic space.

Sometimes people find themselves repeating behavior patterns that don't help them move forward. Out-of-control thoughts, feelings and reactions can interfere with one’s sense of peace and well-being as well as relationships. If you can identify with any of these challenges, I can help you find your center and honor your life path. As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I strive to create a safe, inclusive, judgment-free space for clients to explore, heal, and grow. *I work only with individual adults.

Hi! First, I want to thank you for visiting my page and giving me an opportunity to see how my therapeutic style can assist you with reducing your distress and increasing your life satisfaction. I am so honored that you have decided to review my profile and see if I am a good fit for your journey. I have been working as a therapist with a variety of mental health disorders and systemic family dynamics since 2015. I initially pursued a bachelor’s degree in Sociology and decided that was an unfulfilling career direction for me. Upon deciding to pursue a master’s degree, I decided to pursue the MFT field. Becoming and MFT was the career goal I had as a teenager, so you could say that pursuing the field is a lifelong dream come true. My methods of therapy are person led. I like to provide space, and safety to assist you with addressing the reasons you made the brave choice to pursue therapy. I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). It is a gentle, evidenced based method that uses mindfulness and increases coping skills to assist with achieving therapeutic goals. Additionally, I utilize the technique of Brainspotting that assists with deeper, difficult to resolve trauma. I am LGBTQ+ affirming therapist. I work with clients who are questioning, in their transition process, as well as those who are working on their mental health unrelated to their sexual and gender orientation. If necessary, I can consult with you if you need me to provide gender affirming letters when required for insurance and surgical and hormonal procedures. I really appreciate the time that you took to read through all this information, and I hope that it helps you make an informed decision.

Hi! I'm Eric Hamm, LCSW. I earned a MSW from Loyola University Chicago in 2005 and have been working in the Social Work field for well over a decade. I am a compassionate and goal-oriented therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life transitions, new challenges, and long-standing barriers.

My therapeutic approach is eclectic, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and supportive techniques. I work collaboratively with clients to help them build practical coping strategies, improve self-esteem, and develop a greater sense of empowerment in managing stress and anxiety. I am particularly passionate about working with individuals facing life transitions, such as career changes, relationship shifts, or other personal milestones, as well as those who feel stuck or overwhelmed by long-standing challenges. I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their concerns while working towards meaningful, sustainable change. My goal is to help you feel more confident and resilient, equipping you with the tools and strategies you need to cope with life’s difficulties and move forward with clarity and purpose. Sessions are conducted online, offering flexibility and convenience for clients navigating busy lives.

I’m Allan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy—especially for kids—doesn’t have to mean sitting on a couch talking about feelings for 50 minutes. Sometimes the best conversations happen over LEGOs, games, art, play, or while doing something that makes it easier to simply be yourself. Online, it could mean processing trauma, playing online therapeutic games with children (or adults if you want to). I especially enjoy working with children and teens, including kids who are anxious, overwhelmed, navigating trauma, struggling with big emotions or behaviors, or having a hard time putting what’s happening inside into words. I use play, creativity, humor, and evidence-based approaches to build connection and help kids develop skills without therapy feeling like another place where adults are telling them what to do. I also work with adults navigating trauma, mood concerns, relationships, identity, major life changes, and life’s more complicated chapters. My style is warm, humorous, direct, and genuinely human. I draw from DBT, EMDR, Trauma-Focused CBT, play-based interventions, Theraplay-informed practices, narrative therapy, and trauma-informed care, adapting therapy to the person in front of me rather than expecting them to adapt to therapy. My professional experience includes inpatient psychiatry, juvenile justice, child welfare, family services, and community mental health, so I’m comfortable working with both everyday struggles and situations that feel especially complicated. Whether we meet in my Eureka office or online, my goal is to create a space where you—or your child—feel safe, understood, and comfortable showing up exactly as you are. My practice is LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse affirming and neurodiversity-affirming. And yes, there are credentials behind the LEGOs.

Hi! I am a licensed professional clinical counselor here in California. I have been in the field since 2019 and have grown a soft spot for working with trauma survivors and neurodivergent individuals. I take great pride in helping people from all walks of life take steps forward in their journey to healing and acceptance. I work on increasing the use of healthy coping skills in order to process and work through hard emotions and memories to better ones overall wellbeing.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist dedicated to supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, difficult life transitions, addictions and relationship challenges by developing both insight and learning new coping skills. I believe therapy is a journey inward—one that honors the mind, heart, and spirit and that manifests outwardly as greater life satisfaction. My goal is to help clients reconnect with their inner strengths and their Best Self: the part of you that is grounded in clarity, resilience, and compassion. At any stage of life, your Best Self remains present—offering wisdom, healing, and the possibility of deep inner peace even in the presence of significant life transitions, deep pain or long-standing challenges. I hold a Master of Arts in Spiritual and Counseling Psychology and have trained in grief and loss, community mental health, psychiatric settings, and addiction treatment. In my private practice, I am deeply committed to creating a safe, shame-free, and growth-oriented space that honors each client’s unique healing process. My therapeutic approach is integrative, relational, and grounded in deep caring and lived experience. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful patterns; mindfulness and acceptance-based practices to cultivate present-moment awareness and self-compassion; and humanistic and spiritual perspectives that invite exploration of meaning, authenticity, and purpose. Therapy is a collaborative process. Together, we work in a compassionate space to reconnect with your Best Self—honoring a lifetime of experience while cultivating peace, resilience, and self-compassion in all seasons of life.

As a therapist, I bring warmth, compassion, and authenticity to every session. Along with my clinical training, my lived experience as a mother who has navigated parenting and divorce, immigration, allows me to support clients with empathy and understanding. I work with individuals facing relationship challenges, life transitions, ADHD, autism, men's mental health, aging, anxiety, and self-esteem. I take a caring, trauma-aware and collaborative approach. We’ll use EMDR and practical tools to help you heal, improve your relationships, and make changes that last. I also welcome and support neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ clients, creating a space where you can feel safe, accepted, understood, and comfortable being yourself.

You don't have to navigate life's hardest moments alone. I'm Emilee, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician offering telehealth therapy to adults across the Bay Area and California. I work with adults experiencing OCD and obsessive-compulsive spectrum concerns, anxiety, depression, narcissistic abuse recovery, trauma, grief, and major life transitions, including survivors of narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, and toxic or antagonistic relationships who have spent too long questioning their own reality. I also do meaningful work with people who are just beginning to recognize codependent or people-pleasing patterns. Those who have spent so long taking care of everyone else that they've lost touch with what they actually need. Whether you are caught in cycles of obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, healing from the invisible wounds of an antagonistic relationship, or navigating a life that feels out of alignment, I bring both the clinical expertise and the human warmth to help you find your way through. With over 10 years of clinical experience, I've worked with clients ranging from young children to adults in their 80s, across home, school, outpatient, and hospital-based settings. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families. This range gives me a unique ability to understand exactly where you're coming from, whether you're transitioning into early adulthood, navigating relational difficulties, becoming a parent for the first time, caregiving for aging parents, or managing your own aging process. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not a performance. I show up warm, direct, and collaborative, not just a clinician with a checklist. I make it my mission that when you leave a session with me, you feel a little more connected. If you've been thinking about reaching out, I'm glad you're here. Let's figure it out together.

my name is Lisa Stout and I am a licensed Marrriage and Family Therapist. I have 19 years experience working with children, adults, family and couples. I have 18 years experience working with trauma related symptoms, depression, SI/SH , anxiety and family issues. I am trained in EMDR and trauma informed therapy intervention.

My name is Uchechi Alozie. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach to therapy is seeing my clients within their environment and not just the issues they are presenting. My approach is to aid my clients holistically. I have worked with family units for more than 10 years and have worked with individuals with chronic mental illness for 6 years. I am used to working with families with different dynamics. I have a background in child welfare services, so I am very familiar with the trauma that comes from familial interpersonal relationships. I have also worked in an inpatient psychiatric setting with individuals suffering from debilitating chronic mental illness, which has given me experience working with complex mental health needs and individuals during some of the most vulnerable periods of their lives. In addition to my clinical background, my education and training in law have broadened my understanding of the systems that can impact individuals and families and have further shaped the holistic perspective I bring to my work.
