So, for those seeking it, we will take a holistic approach to therapy, using both cognitive and somatic approaches to restore your peace.

Carmichael, CA - Accepting clients in CA

Hi, I'm Michele. I hope to meet you. It can be overwhelming to find a therapist who is a good fit - made harder when you may already be overwhelmed by the very reason you are seeking therapy in the first place! I know, I’ve been on the other side myself as a client. As a clinician, I partner with you to learn what your goals are for therapy. It’s very important to me that you feel seen, heard and understood; this trusting relationship is the foundation of therapy. I came to this work during mid-life, after years in the private sector in consulting and software high-tech, which gives me a unique perspective. My own experiences with mid-life and navigating life's challenges, and losses have inspired my focus to support adults through difficult times; these dark times are often when we have the opportunity to grow and evolve if we pay attention! I bring a strength-based framework to my practice, encouraging us to get curious about what's working, what's right with you. While we work together to build self-awareness and gain insights, the hard work of therapy is often outside the therapy session: making adjustments, building coping skills, setting boundaries, focusing on what's in our control, practicing new habits/behaviors, so we can stay engaged in life. Talk therapy will only take you so far, and often it is the supportive space that is needed during a challenging phase of life. I find most clients need more - relief - and that comes from you, as the client, being willing to roll up your sleeves and try things that might be out of your comfort zone; in that way, I see myself as your Coach, to encourage you and follow up on the work.

We all have times when we experience symptoms, be it anxiety, depression, trauma, or things that just don't feel right. I am trained and experienced in a variety of therapeutic modalities supporting individuals, couples, adolescents, parenting, and family systems. With a focus on language, communication, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and emotions, you will be on a path toward balance and positivity. Whether you are experiencing challenges with work or life, you can learn how to manage the things you can control, "you!" I truly believe this is "your" journey, not mine, and the sessions are focused on you and what you want to resolve for yourself. I am here to guide, support, and provide you with the necessary tools to succeed.

My name is Anthony Garcia, and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with adults to help them navigate challenges like trauma, anxiety, grief, abandonment, and relational struggles. I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space where healing can begin, and I’m passionate about empowering my clients to find hope, resilience, and meaningful change in their lives.
