Therapists in Dublin, CA

Hi, my name is Siyi Zheng, and I go by Joely. I am an EMDR therapist and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who practices in Irvine, California. I received my master's degree in marriage and family therapy from the University of Southern California in 2018. I specialized in trauma reprocessing work, domestic violence, family issues, parenting, behavioral management, and anger management.

I have specialized in working with children and families for over fifteen years with addressing conflicts within the family system, providing parent coaching and support and helping clients with evaluating their life situations while they undergo major life changes. I see my clients from a nonjudgmental stance to support them in their personal journey/family journey leading them down a path of discovery. Are you ready to embark on a journey that will lead you to end and start new chapters in your life and learn behaviors that may led to you experiencing peace, fulfillment in life and wellness. If so, I can support you.

I have 12 years of experience and I’ve worked with people from all walks of life. My aim is to be by your side and support you in navigating all of life’s challenges. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or stuck in a negative place that’s not serving you, I’d love to talk with you about how we could work together to help you not just feel better but live better. I specialize in supporting people to decrease and better manage anxiety, reduce depression, find a better work-life balance, and improve self-esteem.

We have all experienced challenging times in our lives that have prevented us from living our lives to the fullest. While it can be scary to confide in strangers about your emotional struggle, the connection you establish with your therapist will undoubtedly be a source of relief and comfort that helps you move forward in your life, especially when your family is in crisis. The process of establishing emotional connection with others stems from one of the most basic human needs, and is the building block of healthy relationships. In this way, therapeutic relationship can be utilized to help you flourish in your own personal life.

I believe that people are innate problem solvers. However, in order to solve problems successfully, we need three key ingredients: information, capacity, and skills. Ideally, therapy isn’t about solving the problem for you, it’s about exploring the problem with you so you can determine how these ingredients are at play and develop your own methods to get them. Sometimes, I like to describe therapy as being an editor of the story you’re writing—they're your words and it is your story, but one can get lost in how to be an effective story-teller. A good editor serves as a guide to help you, the author, produce your best work.

As an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and Couples Counselor, I support both couples and individuals—my work is to help you move through pain, miscommunication, or dissatisfaction in your sex life and relationships to find closeness and fulfillment. If sex feels "off": it's boring, or painful, or makes you anxious, OR if you dread coming home from work to avoid another fight OR if you feel alone in your relationship like you're roommates instead of lovers and partners OR if you're healing from betrayal or an affair, therapy can help you (and your partner) repair past hurts to create a fully satisfying marriage/relationship & life.

Are you or someone you know struggling with expressing emotions, connecting with others, and managing relationships, sobriety, anger, anxiety, and/or depression? Are you experiencing communication breakdowns and a loss of connection between you and your loved ones? If so, please allow me to introduce myself. I'm Tim. I'm a licensed psychotherapist who counsels couples, adults, teenagers, and children. I work with all people from all diverse backgrounds, and I specialize in working with people from Asian American and Vietnamese American backgrounds. I am a male therapist and my pronouns are he, him, his.

The ideal client is someone who is experiencing issues related to mild to moderate generalized anxiety disorder, who need parenting ideas, or who needs help addressing mild depression. Their goals would be wanting to learn coping strategies or system changes to reduce their symptoms or improve their household. The client would want to learn information that can assist them in better understanding what could potentially be happening in their life that is causing the distress.

Painful experiences may affect you negatively for your entire life. If you have unresolved anger/grief/sadness/trauma/etc, I can offer guided support toward your resolution. Your treatment will be developed in collaboration with respect and trauma informed care.

There are many factors that contribute to the decision to pursue therapy. Finding someone who can assist you at this significant time in your life is an important choice. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I collaborate with you to understand areas to focus on within therapy and best approaches that are both helpful and supportive. I highly value treating others with respect, empathy, and acceptance. Working with me you will find my style is warm, open, and interactive.

My name is Hugo Garcia and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Monterey, California and working with people living in any part of California via Telehealth. I work with English or Spanish-speaking adults and specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma and stress due to life transitions. I use Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other therapy techniques to understand clients, their life situations and what is most important to them, so I can better support them while we work together on integrating the past, enjoying the present and hoping the best for the future.

Life can be stressful, especially if you have a diagnosis of Autism/Aspergers. Navigating your social world and relationships can be confusing when you see the world through a different lens than your peers. However, with coaching and practice, social situations, relationships, school and work can be less intimidating. If you're a parent of a child with Autism, receiving a diagnosis of autism shatters a parent’s dreams. You wonder if you child will ever learn to talk, have friends, get a job, or live independently. You need support and advice from a trusted professional who can guide you on this difficulty journey.

I am passionate about therapy that produces lasting, inner healing! I use a combination of several psychological theories, depending on what will best meet my client's needs, including ImTT and EMDR, to help clients experience healing and change in the places where their pain originated. This not only creates symptom reduction and/or extinction but also produces an outcome of inner peace, joy and freedom, putting an end to trying harder, pretending or "white-knuckling" through. I love this work and look forward to connecting with you in your journey toward emotional wholeness!

If you feel defeated in your personal chaos, or LOST in a relational situation, I CAN help. I commit to provide you SAFE space, full of compassion, ZERO judgment! I will engage WITH YOU so that TOGETHER, we stimulate thinking, ideas & feelings. INTERACTIVE, not NOTES! I'd be honored to support you. As your Coach, I'm "in it" with you. I'm by your side & I'll have your back! The painful state you are in MUST seem like GRIDLOCK. Too big to shift? I CAN HELP. We CAN shift this & I'm saying ..to an amazing STATE! To choose a stranger (PSY TODAY) to help you, now that's HARD! PLZ stay BRAVE & let me prove how great this can get!

Are you in pain, struggling with recent events or old patterns and you can't seem to get a handle on things? One minute, you are on the verge of tears. The next, you are checking out to escape the wounds from the past, the stress of life, or the endless demands of other people. What if instead of turmoil and exhaustion, you could feel lighter, a calm confidence, and a new sense of peace and freedom? It is possible and I can help.

When we explore the issues that challenge us, we are provided an opportunity for personal discovery and deeper self-awareness. I have spent over twenty years working with people navigating their most disruptive life experiences. My responsibility as a therapist is to create a safe emotional space for my clients and to support them in creating and achieving their personal goals towards positive change.
