Therapists in Camarillo, CA

Now accepting new clients both in person and telehealth! Call today. We have a team of therapists that specialize in working with preteens - retirement (ages 11-99) in many different areas. People struggle to live their true potential and get stuck in long standing behavior patterns and negative perceptions that hold them back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. We are here to help you break the cycle and begin to create change in your relationships, finances, career, education, athletic endeavors (working with teen and college athletes), and daily living.

Each person has unique strengths, powerful potential, and an innate ability to heal and thrive. Yet at times worry, sadness, or traumatic past experiences can move us off track. No matter the challenges you face, I believe in you and provide tools to help you increase resilience, discover your strengths, get back on track, and connect to your success.

Play, with neither a plan or purpose, is the best precondition -- Marie-Louise von Franz. Everyone has a story and sometimes we become stuck in our story because we want to move in a direction that may be different than what is expected. Being stuck may manifest with symptoms of anxiety, depression or other disorders. My approach is to encounter these symptoms with curiosity rather than judgment. The role of therapy is to provide understanding and an empathetic ear with a belief that the activity of therapy will provide insight and healing.

Everyone is different, and therefore, requires a therapist who is tailored to their individual needs. I am dedicated in helping you through challenges you may be experiencing, whether this is something new for you, or has been attached to you for some time. My down to earth personality will help you feel comfortable and generate a dialogue that will bring you through life's difficulties. As a licensed therapist, I will aid in identifying challenges, and provide feedback to work towards positive change, thus enabling you to find inner strength and peace in your life.

"Communication is the key to a healthy relationship." Ever heard this before? One of the most talked about subjects when it comes to romantic relationships is communication. But what about it? How can couples have good communication and create a healthy relationship? So much time is spent investing in finding the right person only to have difficulties and a breakdown in communication and ultimately the union. One of the most important relationships in our lives is our romantic relationship. Learning to understand each other and develop that deep emotional connection and lasting bond is one of the tasks that couples face.

I believe in working collaboratively with clients and building a trusting therapeutic relationship. My goal is to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment that encourages growth and change. My background in dual diagnosis treatment facilities, Department of Mental Health facilities, and a school district provides a foundation for me to assist clients who are struggling with various obstacles, including but not limited to: dual diagnosis disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, life transitions, stress management, relational challenges, behavioral issues, and more.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist I am passionate about empowering individuals to overcome obstacles and heal themselves.

The work of healing the soul is what attracted me to the profession of psychology and I feel it cannot be done if there is judgment or a lack of empathy. A therapeutic relationship that is built on trust, openness and exploration is one that will heal the wounds of the past.I offer an opportunity to create that relationship and to learn how it feels to trust, share and grow. I was born in the northeast but lived in Los Angeles suburbs for 25 years before relocating to NC. I am licensed in both states. I am applying to insurances in CA, but I will take payments from patients for them to get reimbursements.

Life can become overwhelming and you may feel like you are in a rut and it’s getting larger and turning into a deep hole. You may feel like you are stuck and unable to change no matter how hard you try. You may have unresolved issues from the past that are causing you to feel depressed. Or, your mind might be in overdrive, you can’t turn it off and you are feeling nervous about today and anxious about the future.

One of the bravest things a person can do is ask for help – I applaud you for taking that first step. I enjoy helping people manage anxiety, navigate life transitions, and work through trauma. Many of these issues can feel overwhelming and isolating; it would be my honor to support you through what you are facing as I know how powerful therapy can be. Having been on the other side of the couch throughout various points in my life, I understand the trust you are putting in a therapist when you walk into their office. I draw deeply from that trust and my own experiences to create a warm, nonjudgmental and compassionate environment.

I believe in evaluating each person for who they are, and examining how their own life story has contributed to their challenges and problems in the present. It is important to look at the stressors/triggers that are making each person react the way they do, and develop new perspectives and better choices for the present and the future. I help each person identify self-sabotaging actions and in developing a better course for coping and living. Additionally, I believe it is important to learn how to continue to grow within yourself and in all types of relationships.

I work with people who are addressing the challenges of resolving trauma, whose symptoms often appear as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain and illness.

My 20 years of experience working with individuals, families, couples and children enables me to offer effective outpatient psychological care. I treat several mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety and family issues and provide a neutral ground to individuals, families, and couples.

I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. We will work together on your journey.

As a licensed clinical psychologist, I strive to enhance each individuals sense of self-worth and be a support in developing healthy methods to effectively cope with challenging situations and/or triggers. My approach to treatment is always client-centered. I value the importance of a strong therapeutic alliance, and see the therapeutic relationship as a key component to outcome. This begins with providing a safe and nonjudgmental environment in which each individual can explore their fears, obstacles, strengths and hopes. I have experience and enjoy working with all age groups, including advanced training in working with adolescents and young adults.

Through my commitment to people's wholeness and well-being, I create a supportive therapeutic environment where my clients can feel safe and explore their experiences, thoughts, and feelings, gain clarity and self-understanding, and become authentic in their relationships. My approach combines resolving current issues as quickly as possible with an in-depth understanding of the self. Essentially, therapy is a collaborative process for persons wishing to take back control/responsibility of their lives.
