My purpose is to provide you a safe place where we can meet and build a relationship of trust, based on talk and explore, together, the hurt, the confusion, feeling stuck, and and obstacles that keep you from finding healing, meaning, and a better life. I meet with individuals, couples, children, and families to work on issues concerning family of origin, relationships, identity, spirituality, depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and more. Once we enter into the client-therapist relationship, my top priority is to be with you through the therapeutic process, and to support you as you begin taking steps towards living the life you desire.

My experience enables me to offer effective outpatient, individualized, psychological care. I treat a number of mental health disorders, and provide a neutral ground to individuals, families, children, and couples. Parenting is not an easy road to navigate. I am effective in helping parents learn new skills to help them manage behavioral concerns with children and teens; as well as teaching new strategies to children and teens to help improve cohesiveness within the family system. Traumatic events can feel paralyzing. I am passionate in working through trauma to help an individual to find their inner strength, and happiness again.

Feeling out of control over what you care about the most can make you feel like your world is crumbling around you. Feelings of worry, fear, confusion, anger, and sadness can make your relationships, parenting, work, or your education seem impossible and feel like a heavy burden. My passion is helping people realize or remember that they are capable, strong, worthy, and significant. I look to understand your pain and concern, and I want to tell you that you CAN overcome these obstacles that come your way in life. Having peace of mind is a mind frame.

I became a therapist because I believe that there is healing and growth that comes from giving other's space to share your life story. In facilitating this process, I will help you process life's events, uncover your personal truths, and make meaning out of your experiences. I realize that in doing so, you will find new meaning, depth of purpose, and healing. While I am qualified to work with a range of issues, I especially enjoy working with children, adolescents, and young adults, by supporting their development, facilitating their personal autonomy, and helping them navigate life's early years.

Do you live in constant fear? Are you overwhelmed by grief? Do you find yourself feeling sad, withdrawn, irritable, and lonely? Are you struggling to communicate with your teen? Do you often wonder why they behave in certain ways? If so, I would like to help. We all would like to think we are strong enough to overcome these issues on our own, but there comes a time when we need to reach out for additional help. I specialize in treating trauma (specifically sexually abuse), mood disorders, and grief. I also have worked extensively with teens and their families, so I know the problems that are unique to teens.

I will join with you to establish short-term or long-term treatment goals based on your expressed needs. I do believe that our history has contributed to who we are today. I take the time to learn about your family of origin and significant events from the past, while focusing on how this impacts your life now. Awareness of patterns is especially helpful in breaking cycles of unhealthy behavior. My approach to both individual and couples therapy is attachment-based. The ability to connect with others while maintaining a clear sense of ourselves is a focus in therapy.

Many of us don't feel comfortable in our own skin, feelings of anxiety, depression, unworthiness and hopelessness evolve. It may be challenging to voice our wants and desires in many of our relationships. We may be fighting with our significant other over the same thing over and over again and yet never feel heard.

My caseload is currently full, but I am providing supervision to pre licensed clinicians who can see clients via CalOptima or Cigna and can facilitate a referral for new clients. An intention I carry into my work is to aid clients in healing their relationship with their bodies, whether because of experiences with childhood or complex trauma, from patterns of disordered eating, from being transgender or gender non-conforming, and/or living with chronic pain or chronic illness. All of these experiences can complicate our relationship with our body, but with a safe and supportive space like therapy, we can heal this relationship.
J Michael Russell
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PhD, PsyD, NCC
I mainly work with clients who are "psychologically minded" and interested in examining long-standing personality traits that may get in the way of having fulfilling personal and professional lives. Often my clients are therapists or aspiring therapists. I am an Emeritus Professor and a "Research Psychoanalyst." That means I have a PhD in Philosophy and have also trained in counseling and acquired a PsyD in Psychoanalysis. What I offer draws from this mix of backgrounds. I most like working with individuals (and couples and groups) who want to be challenged on both an intellectual and an emotional level.
