Teletherapy for Nevada City, CA

Hi, I’m Meg! I'm an arts-based therapist & creative coach. I believe in an integrative approach to therapy that recognizes our bio-psycho-social-spiritual nature and its profound healing intelligence. My expertise includes: flow psychology, dream-work, anxiety, substance abuse and PTSD. I also offer psychedelic integration, helping people make sense of their experiences of altered states of consciousness and walk them meaningfully into their daily lives. Whether you’re new to therapy/coaching or a seasoned seeker, my practice is open to those who are curious and willing to explore new pathways to growth and transformation.

I provide competent, compassionate mental health care with a flare of comic relief. I approach the psychological work from a non-dualistic lens. I believe each of us have inherent wisdom and that we all need support and reminders to more readily access our internal and external resources. I look forward to walking side by side you on your journey of growth, reflection and healing. I'm skilled at providing in-depth mental health assessments/diagnostics to support client's in better understanding their challenges and I provide congruent coping strategies/treatment.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I am currently only offering services through Telehealth at this time. I have been in practice for 14 years. I have experience working with a wide range of psychological issues ranging from severe to mild to moderate. I work mainly with adults. My areas of interest are working with anxiety, mood disorders, grief/loss, and trauma. I have a strong foundation in ethical and legal issues and strength-based helping practices. I believe in working from a client-centered approach to promote the client's wellbeing that reflects their values, needs, and goals.

Hi, I'm Candice. I offer non-judgmental and affirming care for individuals & couples/partners. I have a special interest in supporting couples and multi-partnerships in moving through complexities such as healing attachment wounding, repairing connection after broken agreements, relationship restructuring, infertility, LGBTQ+/Poly family planning, navigating complex chronic illness, sexuality questioning, and identity exploration. My goal is to support you in crafting the structure, dynamic and connections that meet your unique needs and fit the entirety of who you are, and who you hope to grow to be both individually and together.

I hope to help people from all backgrounds and experiences and walk alongside them in their journey. If you feel a little (or a lot) stuck in the past or fear the future, your feelings are valid and you have a place here.

I would welcome clients who are seeking insight into their own issues and how those issues relate to their relationships with others. I offer a warm, welcoming, non-judgemental environment in which one can gently be guided toward finding their own answers to the challenges they face in this current, tumultuous world.

I love working with people who are motivated to make change in their lives. I understand that it takes courage to enter therapy and share your closest secrets with a stranger. As a scientist-practitioner with a BA in Women's Studies and a PhD in clinical psychology, I draw on interpersonal warmth AND the latest research to guide our treatment together. I see therapy as a collaborative process: You bring the expertise about yourself, I provide the training and scientific knowledge to help you clarify and reach your goals. I want to help you become your best version of yourself!

Life can be hard at times, but it does not mean we need to remain in our suffering. No matter what life presents us with, we have the capacity to find healing in this present moment. Whether you have been feeling stuck for a while or are meeting a sudden change in life, engaging therapy can offer support. There is always the possibility for change here and now - let's join together in this process of discovery.

Are you overwhelmed? Depressed? Anxious? Relying on emotional band-aids, just to get through your day or week? Maybe life has lost its luster, and you are now adrift in a sea of doubt, unsure of what the future holds.

The challenge is walking up in the morning and making sense of our lives in order to get going. The times that we live in are becoming increasingly more difficult. It is easy to feel alone, lost, stuck, and without a compass to find our path. The way to turn things around in our lives starts here and now. You have come to a safe place where you can be vulnerable, heard, and seen through and through.

Are you struggling to find your footing in this difficult new world of ours? Life continues to change and its up to each of us to regroup. I work with clients in the midst of change who are overwhelmed by the demands on their lives from work, school, relationships, or life itself. I see children who have difficulty focusing in school, performing their best, or getting along with others. When children have problems, parents need support too! Families improve when children and parents work together. I also see adults with trouble sleeping, thinking clearly, or reaching goals.

Sometimes the world seems dark, troubling, overwhelming. As humans we are faced with so many choices, possibilities are endless and there are so many unknowns. In the midst of uncertainty, it may seem daunting to reach out for help. Buried deep within the unknown, the darkness, the overwhelm, is the spark of inner light. You know it is there but may appear just out of reach. The light of clarity, of purpose and forward movement is a possibility, and you are ready to come out of the darkness and turn towards this light. We are dedicated to helping you uncover the layers of darkness, and find this inner light.

Currently accepting new couples, adolescents, families, and coparents! I work with clients who are (highly) sensitive, empathic, or intuitive. Sensitive people have a finely attuned nervous system that is a huge gift when made conscious. They experience life deeply, yet don't always feel easily understood by others. Growing up, they often experienced not fitting in, and have adapted to a largely non-sensitive world in myriad ways that didn't always serve their best interest. I support sensitive people on their path to finding their voice, experiencing genuine relationships, purposeful work, and reclaiming their space in the world.

You are ready to grow and develop beyond the barriers built from conflict between you and others in your life. You want both freedom and connection. You long for a deeper awareness of your self underneath challenging emotional and behavioral patterns. Whether you are an adult, adolescent, couple or family, you show courage in seeking help. Navigating the shadows of your unconscious or the blind spots in your relational spaces cannot be done alone. You want someone who is nonjudgmental and aware, adept at following your narratives and stewarding you on your mental health journey.

Cultivate greater balance, intimacy, and wholeheartedness in your life! If you have been stuck in destructive patterns that make you feel powerless, unfulfilled, and weighed down; if you notice being disconnected and out of flow struggling with overwhelm or numbness, and if you battle with the bully inside your head and old demons like resentment, shame and guilt it’s time to prioritize your healing!

I offer in person and tele therapy. My goal is to provide a safe and caring environment. I enjoy working with a wide variety of people. I specialize in those who are struggling with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, addiction, trauma and PTSD. I work with clients who are dealing with opioid and/or benzodiazepine abuse/dependency. My style is a common sense, straight forward approach. I believe that the connection between the therapist and client is the most important piece in the therapeutic process.

Life can be difficult yet we need not live in a caravan of despair. We can learn to accept life's challenges with awareness, an open heart and connection to others. Mostly we did not learn how to live while also staying connected to our hearts. We learned closure, codependency, to do for others and not oneself. We learned how to fight, contract, blame, shame, feel guilty. If you are ready to take a journey into the heart, mind and body of your defensive patterning that leaves you unhappy, alone and in despair - I am here, to go with you into the delicate world of the body and subconscious mind, to free you once and for all.
