Pet peeves: when prayer needs are taken, and these are the most common replies: “I need wisdom and guidance.” (Who doesn’t?) “My aunt’s neighbor fell on her butt in the driveway. Please pray that she doesn't require surgery.” (People have a way of distancing themselves from being honest about what they really need.) Imagine the freedom you might experience if you had the liberty to be truthful about what you really need. For example, “I’m not even sure I believe in God anymore; I’m so angry and hurt.” I am a board-certified chaplain (BCC) and seminary-trained pastor (MDiv) working as a FT pastoral counselor (19 years).

I am a Certified Internal Family Systems (IFS) and IFS couple's therapist with 20 years and 20,000 hours of experience helping people of diverse backgrounds to navigate through dark times in their lives. I have REAL hope that people can overcome depression, calm anxiety, be transformed through grief, and find their peaceful center in the midst of over-stimulation and busyness. I love helping angry, estranged couples find connection and play again. I enjoy helping people find psychological relief in the presence of physical pain.

I believe that everything we are is a result of the relationships we’ve experienced, and that while some may hurt us, they can also heal. In our sessions I will gently support and encourage as you begin to unravel the pains and triumphs that have brought you here to this moment. Choosing to face our fears, big emotions, and missteps can be overwhelming alone, but empowering in the right space. I hope to provide you with a welcoming environment where you can begin to look at some of the more difficult aspects of life and find your own source of empowerment to move forward in life.

Life can feel overwhelming. Painful experiences, trauma, anxiety, and conflicts can alter life. It can lead us to shy away from vulnerability. We boast about independence and feel obligated to be everyone's 'person'. We often set high expectations. We decide we have to be the strong one, reliable one, the one to 'fix it.' Aiming for perfection that doesn't exist, all while silently struggling, feeling alone and exhausted, fighting for control, the ability to predict all while feeling nothing is predictable.

Are you frustrated in a relationship? Are you exhausted from the emotional roller coaster you are experiencing but don't know to make it stop? You do not have to navigate the struggle alone. An outsider's support and feedback can lead to new possibilities for change and hope. I want to hear your story and help you discover that life can be good even when difficult. I connect well with clients as I bring experience, knowledge, and true care into sessions in a direct but supportive way. There is peace and hope to be found. Relationships can improve. Anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction do not have to control your life.

As a social worker, my goal is to partner with my clients so that they may achieve their goals. I have a diverse background in treating trauma, addiction and mental health from a strengths-based perspective, and I have been successful in helping clients to integrate long-term solutions in their daily lives. I feel that my ability to create a strong therapeutic alliance with clients as one of my biggest strengths. For those suffering from PTSD/other past trauma, I offer EMDR therapy which continues to be researched as highly effective for individuals suffering from these conditions.

Ready to shift from the heavy weight of overwhelm, anxiety, depression &/or trauma into a place of freedom & empowerment where you feel ALIVE (instead of just existing)? Awesome! Although starting therapy might feel like a serious & heavy thing—it does not have to be. It can be a safe space to lean into embracing curiosity, getting creative, learning coping skills, & reconnecting with your core self. It can look like taking this messy middle that you feel stuck in & working together to untangle the mess to make sense of what is in the present while reconnecting to your WHOLE self: resiliency, strengths, values, & all!

Please email only. When we're feeling hopeless and overwhelmed by the stresses of our lives, it can be really hard to take the first step- to do one more thing. It's a lot easier to cope when you're not alone. I work to develop collaborative relationships with my clients to alleviate symptoms and resolve underlying traumas as quickly as possible- with or with out homework- your choice.

Life is full of transitions, and while some are smooth, others can be a little more on the bumpy side. Those bumps in the road can affect our overall well-being, mentally and physically. Often, we may not even realize just how much mental health is affected by stressors that emerge in life. I am committed to helping guide you through the challenges and find helpful ways to cope. I provide services utilizing a person-centered approach, which encourages clients to be active and take the reins during sessions and throughout treatment.

I can provide a safe space to talk through your big life transitions and stressful situations. If you are struggling with a rough patch in a relationship or needing to find yourself again, we can work together to reach your goals. Have you experienced trauma and are unsure how to move forward past difficult parts in your life? We can work together to figure out those triggers and move forward healing from those traumatic events. Together, we can find strategies that work best for you in therapy that you can carry with you in everyday life. Whether that be working on building skills or talking through difficult situations.

Hello! I'm McCoy and an AutPlay Certified Therapist. I work with Neurodivergent children (ADHD, Autistic, Dyslexic, etc.) and their families. When I work with Neurodivergent kids, my job is not to change their brain but to work with them to help kids become their best selves. I have experience working with a variety of client challenges, including big emotional outbursts, social isolation, high discipline at school, self injurious behavior, and parent overwhelm. My demeanor is calm and validating. I aim to make a space for everybody and every kind of human struggle. You and your child are welcome here.

If you are exploring the option of therapy, you may have already made attempts to improve your situation on your own. You may feel depressed, anxious or lack assertiveness. Though you desire to make a change, you may be skeptical about the idea of counseling. You may also feel that finding a therapist who listens without judgment and who balances honest feedback with empathy, is a confusing and difficult task. If this describes your situation, I hope that I might have the opportunity to speak with you about a practical strategy to bring about the change you desire.

I have been in private practice, in California for 35 years. The focus of my practice is psychotherapy with adults and adolescents and I also provide couples counseling. My patients come from personal referrals, other professionals, previous patients and internet advertising such as this listing. Through continuing education and consultation with colleagues I maintain a high quailty in the services I provide.

My passion lies in working with adults, adolescents, and families. My experience has been working on a variety of issues including trauma, mood d/o, anxiety, self-exploration and understanding how our thinking affects our feelings and behavior. I enjoy assisting patients with identifying messages taken from life experiences that drive our choices and behavior in order to give each individual a better understanding of self. It is this understanding that brings awareness of habituated behavior patterns, effective communication skills and balance in our daily lives. Skills that are useful to patients outside of the therapeutic setting.
