Therapists in Folsom, CA

Hi! I’m Kalene. I work with people who find it easy to show compassion to others but struggle to have self-compassion. They're often perfectionists, people-pleasers, helpers, empaths, highly sensitive people (HSPs), and overthinkers. I have additional training and experience in treating anxiety/depression and working with survivors of sexual trauma (including childhood sexual abuse, and assault/rape in adulthood). I find that people in these populations can be particularly vulnerable to being unkind to themselves. I specialize in helping people quiet the inner critic, lessen feelings of shame, and find peace with themselves.

Hi, I'm Mindy and I'm here to help, with immediate openings for online therapy for adults anywhere in California. Are you feeling stuck? Perhaps you find yourself repeating the same old unhelpful patterns, but you don't know why you do it or how to stop. You might know you need to make changes in your life, but feel overwhelmed and don't know where to begin. You want to become your most authentic self and live your best life, but maybe you feel weighed down by negative thoughts and feelings.

If you are feeling down, coping with an overwhelming life change, or seeking more out of life and relationships, we can help. Accepting you right where you are with compassion and mindful presence are the cornerstone of our practice. Creating space for you to be, just as you are, problems, guilt, shame, disappointment and all, can be very healing. Once you feel heard and accepted, you can start opening to the guidance of your emotions, identifying blocks to joy, healing and recovery. This creates the space for goal setting and planning.

It's fall of 2023. Are you thinking about making some changes and working on some personal issues? Perhaps now is the time. Life can be challenging at times, and added with our personal struggles, it can feel overwhelming. We may experience grief, loss, unexpected changes, difficulties managing frustration or stress, relationship issues, worries, or depression. Therapy is available so you do not have to meet those challenges alone. My practice (offices in Cameron Park and Folsom) is here to help. Call or email to schedule a free 15 minute consultation to see if we might be a good fit for each other.

The search for a therapist can be difficult, so I am very glad you're here. I have nearly 15 years of experience in treating children and adolescents through an attachment and relational parent-child lens. I incorporate parenting support into each session in order to best support both you and your child. Much of my therapy with children also includes family therapy as I view parents and families as an integral part of treatment. When working with adults, the work tends to be longer term. I use an attachment and values based lens, to get to the core of what my clients are struggling with in order to create new, healthier patterns.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who is experienced in working with individuals, families, children and adolescents. I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues, providing therapeutic services to clients dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, teen issues, grief and loss as well as relationship struggles.

Hello, my name is Juan Carlos Llamas. I am a bilingual Spanish Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 8 years of experience working in the field of mental health. I specialize in treating individuals with anxiety, depression, and trauma. My experience consists of working with children with complex high needs, youth, and adults who are suffering from anxiety, depression, and traumatic experiences. I feel most comfortable treating children, youth, and adults with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am bilingual (Spanish) and can effectively treat patients who are monolingual Spanish speaking.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker serving clients in California and Nevada. I graduated from the University of Southern California (USC) with a Master's in Social Work degree. I have over 10 years of experience with crisis work and mental health in outpatient clinics, emergency department, and inpatient hospital settings, as well as private practice. I have worked primarily with adults, Veterans, first responders, and transitional-aged youth (18-21).

I have found that success, whether relationship, career, parenting, spiritual, or otherwise - can be blunted or excelled based on our perspective and emotional capacity. Often we are using the tools we have or were given and doing the best we can, but it doesn't seem to be enough. I believe we are able to learn tools and skills we were never taught, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and gain a new hope and perspective that allows us to find the success in life we desire. We don’t have to be stagnant with where we are. We can grow and change, — especially when we are supported and taught how to.

I work with teenagers and young adults who are struggling with anxiety and or depression, who are feeling stuck or lost, or unsure which direction to take in school or life. I specialize in “Adulting” and Level 1 Autism Spectrum (Asperger’s), but am happy to work with anyone motivated to change their life. I also work with those who feel like who they aren't good enough, like they’re an imposter, like they’re different, and are tired of trying so hard. I work with both individuals affected by, and family member’s and partners of people on the Autism spectrum who are feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or unsure how to help.

I work with adults of all ages experiencing anxiety, depression, stress associated with trauma, grief/loss, relationship problems, and life transitions related to aging and older adulthood. My belief is that when people move towards approaching their painful experiences with compassion and curiosity it allows space for making meaningful changes in their lives. In our work together, you will be provided with a supportive environment that honors safety and acceptance. Collaboratively, we will explore healthy strategies for dealing with stress that are consistent with your goals and values.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. I can help with career challenges due to burnout, job stress, manager-employee conflicts, or feelings of stagnation. I can help with personal challenges in partner or family relationships, the loss of loved ones, the impact of recent or past traumatic events, or transitioning into retirement. I am always amazed at the untapped strength and resiliency people have once their truth and meaning are clear. Sometimes we need a little support and guidance. I would love to help with that journey.

Maybe something terrible happened to you or someone you love, and you wonder how to live with the triggers, grief, and anger. Your relationships are likely affected - maybe you overreact or feel numb and detached from others. You learned coping skills but are frankly tired of coping. There is good news - the brain can heal itself, called neuroplasticity. I experienced trauma first-hand and healed. I can help you do the same and heal your brain. If you tried other things to heal and found little relief, there is a good chance you have undischarged traumatic stress. Let's get to the trauma root and extract it once and for all!

You’re worried about your teen or struggling as a family. Whether it was a sudden shift or slowly over time, you’re feeling at a loss for how to get support for trauma, anxiety, or depression. It can be overwhelming to get help but you know it’s time to see a therapist. You may be looking for an expert opinion, reassurance, clarity, or all of the above. You want your teen to feel comfortable talking to someone they don’t know and are looking for a therapist who can put them and you at ease.

I feel incredibly fortunate to help my clients find the freedom to live a life of their choosing, improve their relationship with self and others, and find peace. I use brain-based therapies proven to uncover and address issues that talk therapy can take years to heal. In doing so I help children, teens and adults overcome challenges that keep them stuck in negative patterns. Often traumas are at the root of these negative patterns. By offering Brainspotting, a cutting-edge therapy that evolved from EMDR, trauma is accessed, processed and released. This is life-changing. This is freedom.

Today you are one step closer to helping your child and family get back on a positive path to growth and well-being. Life can take many turns and you may find that your child needs extra help dealing with daily struggles. You may notice your child having a harder time in areas that used to be easy for them. You may also notice your child regressing to old ways of coping that you thought they had out grown. Or perhaps there has been a major change or loss in the family, and you are just not sure that your child is processing it well.

Have you felt overwhelmed with all of the things life has thrown at us these last few years? All of life's obligations can leave you feeling stressed, sad, or overwhelmed— and sometimes you can’t shake off these feelings no matter how hard you try. With a little extra help, you can learn to quiet your racing thoughts, overcome these emotions, and begin to feel happiness again.
