As a psychologist with over nine years of experience working with youth and families, it is my goal to help children, teens, and parents through challenging times in their lives and to help them navigate the mental health system. Children and teenagers who have anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, or behavioral outbursts often feel alone in their struggles and this can be very overwhelming for parents and families. I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults with anxiety, OCD, mood disorders, emotion dysregulation, relationship difficulties, and trauma. I also provide parent guidance therapy and coaching.

Many of my clients feel stuck in old patterns of behaviors and communication styles that no longer serve them. As a result, they often feel misunderstood and disconnected from one another. With my years of training and compassionate attunement, I have helped them move out of old negative cycles, gain a deeper trust and connection with one another and have peace and harmony in their relationship. Please visit my website at www.jgriggiomft.com for a more information on how we can work together to help you achieve this too. I also help people with their struggles of anxiety, depression and PTSD. I teach methods for symptom relief.

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist and I am dedicated to helping adult individuals and couples transform and thrive. During my doctoral studies at Harvard University, I gained extensive experience using evidence-based treatments, including CBT, ACT, DBT, and CPT with a wide range of mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, grief, stress, life transitions, and relationship issues. I am committed to respecting the worth of all persons, including those with differing abilities, races/ethnicities, gender identities, and the LGBTQIA-plus community.

Our world can be pretty hectic, especially here in the Bay Area. We all experience stress from external and internal pressures and obstacles. Life can feel overwhelming which leads our body and mind to shut down and/or lash out in various ways. We feel stuck because we are drowning in intense emotions and stressful events and we don’t know how to get to the surface and catch a breath. As a result we miss out on the joys of life as we cannot fully experience happiness with the weight of everything we need to get done or everything we need to do to meet everyone’s (even our own) expectations.

Thank you for viewing my page! Therapy with me is relational, dynamic, reflective and responsive. You can expect to be challenged, in a warm and supportive environment. Curiosity about relationships and how family history gets carried forward into the present guides my work with children & adults of all ages. I've worked with clients aged 0-101 with an emphasis on connection, authenticity, and mindful self-awareness to overcome a variety of conditions, including low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, phase-of-life and relationship problems. As a Somatic psychotherapist, I also utilize body-based techniques like mindfulness & movement.

I am a licensed, clinical psychologist with extensive experience providing evidence-based psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, and other stress-related problems. I use cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, and mindfulness therapeutic approaches to treat problems such as social anxiety, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorders, depression, grief & loss, PTSD/trauma, and stress related to relationships, work, parenting, and other issues. In addition to private practice, I have been an Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine.

I'm here to help find fulfilling and lifelong sexual/intimate satisfaction, whether you are partnered or single, straight, gay, bi, poly, kinky, asexual, furry or fandom. These days, so many of us are seeking less stress and more balance. The Bay Area is a worldly place, many come excited by its progressive sexual energy. Others may find sex confusing, challenging to talk about, or even perhaps, their worst nightmare. Most want better ways to communicate, especially about sex; perhaps to deepen love and connection, or for a path to restore trust and find pleasure. Sex can be juicy and life affirming, I am here to help you find that.

I believe therapy should be more than just talk. Just because you're stuck in your head or stuck in the past or stuck in a job/relationship/-insert shitty quagmire here- , doesn't mean you have to be stuck talking about it forever in therapy. You've already taken this big step of looking for a therapist, now let me help you get moving.

Hello and Welcome! I am a licensed psychologist in private practice in Redwood City, CA. I have been practicing as a therapist for children, couples, adults, and families since 2002. As a therapist, my goal is to help you focus on your unique strengths in a warm, interactive, and collaborative setting. I can help children and adults, individuals or couples, and/or families address parenting concerns, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and medical problems.

I have been working as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) for 13 years. My passion lies in helping individuals learn and implement the skills that support a life that is healthy and fulfilling. The clients I work best with are functioning safely day to day, but are experiencing challenges and may be feeling drained by one or more relationships in their life. My clients want to feel more empowered to navigate the natural ups and downs that exist within relationships.

You might come to me struggling to find a sense of wellness, balance, or fulfillment in your day to day life. You might feel overwhelmed and lost in the midst of too many competing demands. You might be seeking help to let go of things that are holding you back and to find new ways to navigate your experience. My approach is collaborative, supportive, holistic, and nonjudgmental. Together, we can explore your unique history, challenges, and strengths to help you sort through things, heal, and find ways to live a richer, more meaningful, and more fulfilling life.

My goal is to provide you with compassionate understanding and a clear plan for moving forward, whatever this means for you. It may mean overcoming anxiety or depression, improving your relationship, helping a struggling teen, or finding your way after a life change or loss. It could also mean helping you enjoy life more, regardless of what is happening around you. I have been providing therapy to individual adults and adolescents, as well as couples and families for over 20 years. I work with a diverse range of emotional, behavioral and relationship issues, utilizing the most effective research-based treatment models.

Your challenges aren’t in vain – they can be springboards into the life you dream of. Maybe you have felt overwhelmed, stressed out, anxious, sorrowful, or despairing. These difficult emotions can indicate that transformation, power, and aliveness are at hand. You just need the right guide to help you move through them to that fulfilling, happier life that you long for. I’m skilled at helping you explore your own depths – even the scary places – to find your hidden treasures. Your relationships, work, and sense of self can become more authentic and fulfilling – even when imperfect. And you’ll discover your inner resilience, too.

Finding a therapist you trust is a challenge and scheduling your first session takes courage. You’ve taken the first step toward healing and personal growth. I’m offering you a safe, nurturing and accepting place to freely express your feelings, thoughts and experiences. My vocation is to guide and support individuals like yourself to better understand themselves at a deeper level through the transformative power of compassion and empathy. With commitment to therapy, we will explore your relationship with yourself and your relationships with others, addressing behavioral and emotional issues that are potentially holding you back.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, non-judgmental, and action-oriented. I practice evidence-based treatments, including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Cultivating compassion-and mindfulness of the present moment-can help you learn to face the challenges in your life with courage, wisdom, and kindness, improve well-being and life satisfaction, and establish more compassionate relationships with yourself and others. I can also help you regulate emotions, change how you relate with your thoughts, and build new healthier behaviors.

Maybe you have come to a place in life where "figuring it out" on your own is not working. Maybe you want to develop new skills, a new perspective from someone with experience, non-bias, and without judgement. I am committed to assist individuals, couples, and families navigate life. It can be hard to make that first step to reach out for help, but I will meet you right where you are at!

Those I work with often experience preoccupation and rumination that distract them from accessing joy and living in the present moment. Although uncertainties in life will never cease, we can learn skillful ways of managing them. My approach is balanced: recognizing anxiety as being an inevitable part of the human experience while helping to manage and reduce it. Defining your values and deeper sense of meaning will serve as motivators and anchor our work. Together, we will address how avoidance and control strategies interfere with the changes you’d like to make in your life and collaborate on a path to action.

I focus on both healing AND growth for people with depression, anxiety, traumatic histories, as well as interpersonal, professional, and familial and spiritual challenges.

I bring an engaged and compassionate presence to each client. My varied and focused experiences and training uniquely position me to understand, connect with, and provide skilled counseling to a wide range of clientele
