Therapists in Chico, CA

Life can be very overwhelming at times and connections with others are important. Sometimes we have difficulty connecting and overreact and don't know why. Sometimes we have unmet needs but we’re not really sure what those are. Sometimes we are in a loving relationship but we shift from closeness to distance. Sometimes we have difficulty expressing how we really feel and tend to focus on others rather than ourselves. If any of this sounds familiar therapy in a safe setting may be helpful. We all want to feel good about ourselves and our lives. Sharing our issues,needs, and goals can help to move us forward

Greetings, my name is Abram. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, working in the field for approximately 10 years. I have worked with a variety of individuals, and couples over the course of my career. My goal as a therapist, is to work myself out of a job. In other words, I want to help my clients, identify their goals, and then work towards their goals, in a relatively short period of time. In my professional experience, most people come to therapy as a result of relationship discord, or persistent distressing emotions. My goal is to assist my clients in finding relief from distressing, emotion, and enjoy relationships.

With warmth, openness, compassion, and collaboration, I work to create a safe and supportive space to help individuals and families to overcome challenges, work through trauma, loss, and adversity, and manage difficult emotions, while uplifting their strengths and resilience. My areas of expertise include infant, early childhood, and perinatal mental health, complex trauma, issues related to parenting, disruptions in early attachment, and developmental/behavioral concerns.

As a trauma-informed therapist with Kindred Heart Therapy Group, I choose to use a collaborative, respectful, and non-pathologizing approach which seeks to highlight an individual’s many abilities, values, skills and beliefs that are often overlooked when problems take control of their lives. I aim to create a safe space for my clients while they navigate through their unique journey of healing and growth. I am also passionate about social justice and invite sociopolitical issues into the therapy room while remaining curious as to how these impact individuals, couples, families and/or communities. I look forward to meeting you!

Hello, I’m Jennifer! My name is Jennifer Cowley. I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Butte County, California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I have a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. I enjoy working with adults 18-65 specializing in anxiety, stress, perinatal disorders, grief and loss, depression, mood disorders, and trauma.

Is your teen or pre-teen struggling and you know they need help, but you are not sure where to start? Would you like them to talk to someone who specializes in adolescents? I can help your child and your family get through the rough patches. I help with a wide variety of teen and pre-teen issues including depression, anxiety, school attendance, substance abuse and family conflict. I also have expertise and experience working with transgender and gender non-conforming youth, and helping parents and families through the transition experience from a gender positive approach. If you are a parent and you are here looking for help, I know already that you are your child’s advocate. You are in your child’s corner. That support is a powerful force in their life, and so important for resilience, but when your child is struggling it can be so scary and so hard to know what to do. With grown kids of my own, I’ve been there as a parent through the rocky times too. I can help. Give me a call.

I offer you a 'strength based' therapy. I use support, introspection, assessment, direction and referral as a way to bring change to your life. We all experience loss, doubt, changes in our life beyond our control. For some people 'Therapy' is a place to re-charge. For others is it a vital experience needed to explore core issues ( trauma ) and re-organize their sense of self and move forward. I believe I offer a safe place online for you to grow. Online Zoom sesions only. I enjoy working on issues of anxiety, depression, relationships and parenting. I am a survivor of the Camp Fire and feel qualified to work with other survivors.

I believe we all are doing the best we can with what we've been given, but sometimes we need a little more. We need compassion for ourselves and our life situation, so we can see a way to a different future than the track we're currently on. I look at life and relationships from an unbiased and non-judgemental lense so my clients can focus on describing their experiences and situations without fear or worry. My goal is to help you make sense of things from a new perspective and to help you move through your current space differently, eliciting different outcomes than those you've experienced in the past.

One-size-fits-all therapy works great if everyone has the same problems, but we all know that’s not the case. You’re exhausted from searching for something that actually works. Doing MORE standard therapy isn’t the answer, but you already know that. You’re solving the surface stuff, but not getting through the deep layers to those core issues that are the real cause. It’s like you’re living in a house with a broken foundation and you’re trying to fix it by slapping on new coats of paint. You’re committed and motivated to do the work, but you don’t have months to wait for positive changes.

Life can be difficult. Maybe you are looking for new ideas, support, or you are ready to make some changes in your life. I believe that all of us can change and positive things can happen. I provide a warm and supportive environment that focuses on your needs and goals in life. Together we can develop a treatment plan that will enable you to make the changes you want in life.

My view is that all people are capable of finding their own answers within and are already whole and complete. But sometimes hurts in life, trauma, mental health challenges or relational conflicts can keep a person stuck. I know that therapy is a process that facilitates change and walking along side with a person in their journey of personal growth has been a privilege for me for over 10 years. I have experience in working with trauma and PTSD, Anxiety disorders, depression, relationship problems, substance abuse, difficulties with emotional regulation, and Eating disorders.

Sometimes we feel emotionally numb because of past or present experiences. Maybe the memory of your experiences trigger discomfort, isolation, or thoughts of regret, & you’re tired of being controlled by your past. You want to feel happy & show-up fully for your friends, family, & partner, but you just can’t seem to shake it off enough to be present. I am here to face the struggle with you & to tell you that depression, anxiety & trauma are highly treatable. Reaching out can be scary and unsettling, but you don't have to do it alone.

Happy 2024! Wouldn't it be amazing if we could all float through life without stress, struggles, triggers, and obstacles? I hope your automatic thoughts are "nope" because you are right. All of these experiences from our childhood to our relationships, through grief and trauma make us into the person we are and help us appreciate that we can come out the other side being a healthier, happier version of ourselves. Let me help you find a healthy perspective and begin to live a better more fulfilling life. There is no one size fits all so we work together to find the path that best suits you!

Hello, and thanks for dropping by. Life can be incredibly lonely and harsh. My goal is to support you, gently and honestly, towards increased self respect and worthiness. Licensed since 1999, I have vast experience with children and adults. Depression, anxiety, complicated traumas and grief; issues regarding foster care and adoption; sexual abuse, parenting, and/or child welfare are areas I'm well versed in. I'm genuine, compassionate, and I tell it like it is. Most importantly, you deserve a therapist with whom you're comfortable. That search can be trying, but it's worthy because you are. I'd be honored to be that person.

Sometimes it's difficult to look at the life we have and compare it to the life we'd like to have, without feeling disillusioned and powerless. Anxiety, depression, life transition, work-life balance, etc., all make life hard. If you find yourself in this position, you're not alone. Processing disappointment and overcoming difficulties can take time, and sometimes it feels like we're stuck and never going to be able to move on in life. If you're having difficulty finding your way, I am here to help.
