Therapists in Redlands, CA

My name is Carol Fox, LMFT and I have been in practice for many years, witnessing the changes in the need and acceptance of therapy as a tool to becoming a better person. Finding self has many paths, so many therapies have been created, but the focus is always the same: finding the self in the lives we live each and every day. My approach to therapy is to find the right path back to the self. Life presents many challenges, whether they be trauma or change of circumstances. These challenges are on a spectrum in everyone's life. People who are willing to work on themselves are most receptive to therapy, or the art of exploring.

I possess a passion for helping others along their life's journey. In my work, I arrive with sincerity, humility, optimism, and professionalism. My purpose is to hold a safe space--- removed of judgment and bias--- in order to facilitate healing, growth and transformation, so one can fulfill their life's purpose. I serve infant, child, adolescent, adult and geriatric populations through an intersectional approach to client-centered, strengths-based, trauma-informed, culturally-attuned, evidence-based, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapeutic interventions. Individual, couples, and family therapy available.

I approach psychotherapy from a whole-person perspective and I believe therapy, along with other practices, can help us awaken to a life of meaning. In therapy I will help you identify the source of your longing to be whole, and together, we will move closer to that source, so you become re-sourced. Together we will explore your innate natural cycles and help you align to your own rhythm, so that you might meet depletion with rest and energy with creativity.

Are you ready see what's possible for your brilliant teen or once enthusiastic young adult? You already see their potential, and now it's time for them to see it too! Perhaps your family has been struggling, and you can see the impact the last few years has had on your child. It's time for some help. Teens and young adults are at a prime period of life where having a place to ask questions and explore meaning, create a tool kit for dealing with anxiety, overwhelm, depression and motivation can not only help them navigate life and responsibilities right now, but also for the rest of their lives.

All roads lead to Rome! It doesn't matter where we jump in, if you’re ready, we’ll get there. My approach is based on Attachment Theory & CPTSD: the idea that much of our conflict & distress stems from old wounds & unmet needs. De-coding this blueprint provides a path toward healing & fulfillment. Relational issues, estrangement, Teen/YA issues & living life “on purpose” are all areas I am passionate about. I incorporate trauma-informed, conventional therapeutic modalities and a Buddhist Psychology perspective. I am a rabid ally and advocate for equality. Coming Soon: Psychedelic Assisted Therapy (currently Ketamine only).

Do you struggle with letting yourself truly rest? Humans aren’t machines, but a lot of us have been trained to hold ourselves to impossibly high standards of productivity. Is balance possible? Can we learn to adjust our pace to allow for rest and calm before burnout inevitably sets in?

I help guide creative, motivated, open, and spiritually-minded individuals on their journey to reconnect and reintegrate with their true selves. It can be difficult to manage (or even face) all the feelings that come with depression, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, or cultural identity. Perhaps you're feeling lost right now, but you just know that there's a path and a purpose specific to you. There is a way to feel aligned in all areas of your life, and to live in true fulfillment and joy!

Kathy Southard LCSW has been in practice for over 20 years. A graduate of Boston University, she is a former member of a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital's psychiatry department. Kathy has experience working with the following modalities: EMDR, CBT, Mindfulness-Based Approaches, Mentalization Based Therapy. Additionally, Kathy is a MAPS trainee therapist, learning more about IFS and somatic methods for healing. My theoretical approach is a mix of psychodynamic, CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness. I am influenced by eastern approaches to psychology and spirituality. There is no way out, but through.

My role as a psychotherapist is to accompany people on their courageous journeys of healing, discovery, and self-expression. I enjoy working with individuals who are curious and inspired to take their inner work seriously. I believe that the narratives we tell about ourselves hold tremendous power and that, through our work together, we can become more conscious of how these stories shape our lives in order to find opportunities for new understanding and meaning making. As a depth psychotherapist, I have reverence for the wisdom of psyche, the unconscious, to help guide us to explore parts of ourselves in order to become more whole.

Are past traumatic experiences, being an adult child of a dysfunctional home, incest survival experiences, addiction issues, phobia, panic, anxiety, C-PTSD or depression affecting your success? Are distractions impacting your optimal performance abilities at work, in your intimate relationships, or in relationships with family members or with yourself? Are you surviving instead of thriving? I provide accelerated psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are challenged by performance loss and emotional unhappiness. Also offer Diagnosis evaluation for addiction, mood, personality, and adult Autism spectrum. HSP and Kink friendly.

In our sessions, your struggles, triumphs, and curiosities, will be met with reverence and compassion. I embrace a creative and collaborative approach to conversation that recognizes circumstance and invites possibility. By exploring the multitudes within you, we can unearth your own unique and vast inner resources— making it easier to navigate life's challenges with your values and preferences at the forefront.

Do you feel stuck and unseen in your relationship? Does the fighting go in circles without resolution? As a Couple's Therapist I can help your relationship grow towards harmony and understanding. For individuals: Are you tired of relentless self-criticism? Do you read self-help books only to find yourself struggling with the same things? I can help you find your stride. Many of my clients are high-functioning, creatives, women and couples. I love working with couples & people who are motivated to go deep and see change in their life. If you're ready for growth, don't hesitate to call and receive a consultation today.

We believe in the therapeutic process deeply and the power of growth and change. The first challenge is often alleviating symptoms of depression, anxiety, life and work stress, relational problems, grief problems, and sometimes managing traumatic experiences. For those who seek further growth after the immediate pain is resolved, the clinician may help you identify and address repetitive patterns that get in the way of you living your fullest life.

Ideally, I hope for clients who want change, or who are in a huge shift in their lives. The most secret, vulnerable parts of ourselves require a trusted, open sanctuary for healing to begin. Life can be difficult, cruel at times, but the luminous is real, and contains genuine relief. We always have options. We cannot always see them. A good fit for me is someone who wants a therapist who will really listen, but who brings a lot of lived experience. I have desire to see people thrive and grow, set a new course. My clients usually find their courage, as we work, slower or faster. Resilience is always there. You have gotten here.

Whether you’re going through a difficult moment or life transition, having trouble in relationships, experiencing anxiety, or looking for meaning in your life, I am here to support you. I create a safe, shame-free space for you to explore underlying issues that may be causing challenges in your life. I show up authentically with a Trauma-informed, Depth/Jungian, IFS, Relational, and compassionate Mind-Body approach. We can explore your inner world, process past trauma, bring awareness to relational wounds, and grow interpersonal connection in order for you to have fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.

We are our community. We are BIPOC. Our clients reflect the eclectic and diverse life experiences and training of our clinicians. Our clients come to us to deal with life transitions, identity, acculturation, trauma and grief. We get to know you and tailor our treatment approach specifically to your individual and/or your family’s needs. We use the latest in evidence-based practices to make sure that you are receiving innovative and quality mental health support.

Creating a safe environment and atmosphere where you can feel comfortable and at ease is an important first step in our process. Deeply listening so that you feel seen, heard, understood, and respected is foundational in our time together, as well as working collaboratively to help you identify and overcome obstacles to inner calm, peace, and happiness. Finding meaning in our lives, healing, and becoming whole again, as well as thriving (not just surviving) in daily life are examples of potential goals for our time together. Within that framework, we will customize our work to meet and embrace your unique personality and needs.
