Therapists in Eureka, CA

I provide therapy to clients who have trauma, depression, anxiety, feel stuck, unmotivated, feel isolated, feel like they are not doing enough, experience adjustments to life and have strained relationships. I work with adolescents and adults. I specialize in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders and I'm dedicated to supporting moms and birthing persons who are expecting, experience postpartum depression, infertility issues, birth trauma, grief and loss. I work with individuals who want to process their feelings in a nonjudgmental space and are open to growth, healing, and managing stressors.

I make it a priority to respond to every call by the day's end and also offer the flexibility of weekend appointments. My goal is to help others find relief from the cycle of difficult thoughts and emotions that arise from a variety of life circumstances, whether adjusting to new events or dealing with a life-long struggle. Learning new skills, perspectives and being heard can be transformative. Your life-story, your beliefs and your strengths are of paramount importance. I strongly believe in acceptance, compassion and hope, offering these at all stages of our work together.

I work collaboratively with my clients to use their strengths to develop positive change in couple and family interactions, and in individuals' personal, social, educational, and employment lives. My work blends stress management, mindfulness, guided imagery, communication skills, anger management, family counseling, parenting skills, and trauma work. I have experience with learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD, medical stress and chronic pain, ACA/codependency, PTSD, and Panic DO. My work is neurologically based, client centered, and solution focused.

As a queer transgender, nonbinary individual with a non-traditional spiritual practice and collaborative approach to my therapy, I know that finding the right therapist is important. Whether in rural situations or in a big city—the therapy room is a space where a client doesn't have to explain or educate a therapist about sexuality, open relationships, polyamory, BDSM, body size, disability, chronic health issues, experiences of oppression, or racism. You are valid. I hold that everyone is an expert of their own life. I am not an expert when it comes to your life.

Chaos happens--accidents, divorces, traumas, as well as setbacks in life, transitions, everyday interruptions, and unexpected events--even falling in love. Chaos untethers us; it changes everything. Our work is to find a new normal--to develop ways to weather the chaos, ultimately leaving us stronger and more resilient.

Hi there, I'm Yazmin! I'm a licensed therapist who has clinical expertise in a variety of populations. I have worked extensively with children, adults with acute mental illness, substance use disorder, and the geriatric population. My goal is to help you find a happier and healthier balance in life and relationships to help improve your quality of life. I utilize a person-centered approach where I focus on your needs and establish a supportive client-therapist relationship. My goal is to create a safe therapeutic environment by building a trusting and collaborative relationship and empowering you to take charge of your future.

Everyone has within them the capacity to heal. Sometimes, though, it’s helpful to have someone come alongside of you on your journey. As an infant-family early childhood mental health specialist, I work with children and families across physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental domains, employing a strong attachment-based approach while also using cognitive-behavioral, narrative, family systems, and solution-oriented frameworks. I also love to work within a Christian framework if so desired by the client and/or family.

When life circumstances are overwhelming or painful, psychotherapy can make all the difference. I offer support to individuals seeking deeper insight into their interior lives and relationship patterns, and in finding meaning in life’s challenges and uncertainties. I work well with people who want to understand themselves better through an interactive process that invites lasting change. I am a good match for people who are complex, creative, analytical, or sensitive, or for anyone who might identify as an outsider.

Presence, attunement and holistic witnessing provide the container to safely feel, express and expand. With a resonant, integrative, and somatic approach, we'll explore and process in a way that allows your thoughts, emotions, feelings, felt sense and unique lived experience to take up space and integrate, highlighting your depth of inner wisdom and resourcing unique to you.

I provide Adult Supportive, Strengths based counseling for coping with daily life adjustment issues and trauma focused therapy (EMDR) for sexual assault, PTSD, and early childhood trauma and related issues.

Everyone experiences challenges from time to time. Some have difficulty finding joy and happiness in their lives. Others experience conflict in their relationships, personal life, or with family members. Some people are overwhelmed with depression, anxiety, stress, or are struggling with day-to-day tasks or past trauma. Can you identify with some of these challenges? Are you seeking help in order for things to get better in your life?

I specialize in working with transitional-age youth and young adults age 14 and up. I guide each session with a social justice and trauma-informed lens to support your mental, emotional, and social development. This includes supporting you in managing practical life challenges such as education, employment, and interpersonal communication, as well as more complex obstacles like imposter syndrome, financial values, and intimate relationship dynamics/composition. If you are interested in beginning your journey toward becoming more a confident, introspective, emotionally balanced individual, I will be here every step of the way.

When times are tough and the day-to-day feels like a struggle, it can be difficult to reach out for help. You may not know where to go or what to do to make things better. You may be telling yourself that you should be able to solve whatever you are dealing with on your own. The truth is that everyone needs help sometimes. I will work with you on identifying what you are struggling with, and will help guide you towards health and healing. You are NOT alone and you do not have to struggle. I'm here to help.

You’re looking for help in all of the right places, and would like to find a good fit. Maybe repetitive patterns or cycles in your life have you seeking change. Maybe you're seeking more clarity or understanding of your experiences. You want to move forward, to connect more, and to feel more supported and supporting. You would like to have more meaningful relationship with yourself, with others, with life in general. I enjoy assisting others in learning to create more balance, calm, and connection in their lives, whether in coping with mental health challenges or with life circumstances.

Do you feel like you are experiencing repetitive patterns in your life that are holding you back or keeping you down? Do you feel stuck in your relationship, job, or other areas of your life? Therapy can help you to work towards a better understanding of yourself and your choices and create a path for change. Making change often requires a deep look at your life experiences and an understanding of why you do what you do. We will explore how your past is affecting your present and forge a shift towards different ways of thinking and seeing the world. I see therapy as a way to truly expand your understanding of yourself.

My approach is ultimately based on what my client wants to work on: whether that be a short term solutions-focused approach to address system changes in a family/relationship or to manage the aftermath of a crisis situation, a cognitive behavioral approach to brainstorm symptom management that has brought about chaos in their life, or a psychodynamic approach to explore the depths of one's dreams and soul purpose. I specialize in looking at imagination as a problem-solving tool to bring about a change that my client is looking for.

Whether you are coping with stress, going through a major transition or loss, or seeking to better understand yourself, therapy can be a powerful experience. It is a journey that can include healing, learning new skills, coping with difficult things from your past and preparing for the future. Many things can get in the way of being your own preferred version of yourself. Sometimes it is relationship challenges, sometimes it's an unhealthy pattern that you learned in the past, or something else entirely. We can work through these challenges so that you feel more in touch with person you want to be.

Therapy is a place where we get to focus on what's important to us: where we've been, where we'd ideally like to go, and everything in between. A confidential place just for you - free from the distractions of work, responsibilities, family and other people's agendas. My goal is to meet you exactly where you are at, and to support you in the ways that you need.

I have worked with children, youth, and adults for many years in multiple environments. I work collaboratively with the person to help them meet their needs and goals. What is it you would like to achieve? Overcome? Process? Using evidence based practices, I will help you work through trauma, conflict/loss of family, substance use, depression and anxiety.
