Thank you for reviewing my profile. I am originally a midwest farm gal with a little city pazzaz having lived in the Chicagoland area for many years. Although I am now a CA resident, my midwest roots are grounding to me. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California. I provide counseling services via telehealth and on Tuesday's have in-person sessions available to those who live locally. On days I am off and not working, I enjoy reading, riding the motorcyle with my husband, spending time with my adult kids, traveling, taking walks with our pet dog, Buddy, and working out at the gym. I am divorced, have lost a pet I dearly cherished, lost my father, and work hard to get my PhD! I am a huge advocate of self-care because that is what helped me keep taking one step forward on difficult days. Take courage and know that I, too, have not been without struggles, but encourage you to know there is hope everyday!

My work focuses on helping individuals achieve a level of clarity and consciousness in their lives that can create a sense of acceptance, grounding and growth. Growth can take many forms in one's life: improved relationships, improved sense of well-being, enhanced sense of self, reduction of painful/unwanted symptoms, career success, etc. My approach focuses on understanding and uncovering what stands in the way of one's growth. This process lays the groundwork for reaching a place of greater fulfillment. I seek to explore issues from the past/present to provide insight into what motivates present feelings and behaviors. I received my Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. I have over 10 years of experience in serving the community by working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and the elderly. I specialize in dealing with issues related to depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, and grief/loss. I am currently accepting patients ages 18+. Although my specialty includes relationship issues, I prefer to work with clients in an individual, one-on-one, setting.

Do you ever find yourself wanting to start a task, create something new, go to the gym for the first time in a long time or begin a new career path? The excitement of this builds, then suddenly your mind starts telling you the story you've heard before. "I can't do it." "I don't have time." "It will be too hard for me." "I'll never actually be able to do it." These thoughts can be crippling and stop us from reaching our goals as humans.

Hi! I'm Courtney. Therapy is a collaborative journey. I believe in holding space for your story while we work together on achieving your goals. When you come to a therapy session, I hope that you can come as you are, and be your authentic self. The therapeutic relationship is built on trust and asks clients to practice vulnerability in order to examine those parts of us that are no longer serving us. Through this work, we can then discover practical tools that we can use to grow and overcome our biggest challenges. My approach combines an empathic client-centered outlook, informed by research and various evidence-based practices, to help clients feel validated and empowered as they work towards their behavioral goals. I truly enjoy helping individuals through their everyday challenges, childhood memories, trauma, parenting, and life transitions. I use a combination of strength-based, behavioral, and cognitive interventions to help clients become present, focused, and skillful. Throughout my years of practice, I have worked with a diverse population of clients. I have worked closely with families and children in community mental health, adults in more structured short-term therapy, adolescents in the school setting, as well as those struggling with substance abuse. I have had the opportunity to be trained in multiple evidence-based practices, which aligns with my desire to bring research-based treatments into my work. We are all unique and one style of treatment does not fit everyone. My training has given me the tools and knowledge needed to create specialized treatment plans for each individual that I work with.

Im a Bilingual English/Spanish-speaking therapist with a Marriage and Family License, with 18 years of clinical experience, 12 years licensed and in private practice. I consider myself to be bi-cultural. Having been raised as a first-generation American in a Latin family, I can identify with the mentality of someone living within two "worlds". Transitioning from one culture to another with seemingly different values, beliefs and language. I can easily understand the struggle that maintaining, and existing in both, can sometimes be. I've come to perceive and appreciate it as the gift of having a "bridge" that allows connection to, and understanding of, different aspects of people and life. My education has a foundation in Clinical Psychology, woven with holistic transpersonal themes, the connection between mind, body, and spirit, and just plain down-to-earth common sense. Always keeping in mind the client's personal beliefs and values.

Hi, my name is Michael and I've had the privilege to work as an LCSW Psychotherapist for over 15 years.

If you're here now and exploring a way to seek answers/solutions, I want to congratulate you for taking the first and hardest step forward. I've worked with a broad spectrum of clients to aid in managing their current distress in the present while attending to resolving the past. Together, we can identify how to improve on what's not working to get you back to your ideal balance. We'll use a "whole-person" approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit learning cognitive and behavioral strategies to achieve your path to your identified best trajectory. Whether you're dealing with overwhelming depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship issues I'm here to help! Seeking therapy can feel scary but it's essentially a conversation with you in the driver's seat. Sessions are a safe (non-judgmental and confidential) space to share, learn, grow, and heal. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Whether it's with myself or another provider, I hope you complete the step towards reclaiming the peace and happiness you deserve.

Hello, I remember a joke from sometime ago that goes something like this: "Three friends were walking together one day, and one remarked, 'It's windy,' Another responded, 'No. It's Thursday.' Still the other answered, 'I'm thirsty, too. Let's have a cup of tea.'" Is it that way for you sometime? Finding that you are not really being heard and understood? I get it! I work with clients to help them find their strengths and abilities that assist them in better communicating their needs to themselves and to others which can lead to better outcomes in overall functioning in their lives.
