Therapists in Nevada City, CA

Hi there, I'm Blake, a licensed clinical social worker. I've helped people with many issues like anxiety, depression, personality disorders, grief, divorce, severe mental diagnoses, and many more. I am trained in many different therapies and tailor a plan to each patient, rather than tailoring a patient to a plan. In my view, people used to mostly lived in close-knit communities, which has eroded with the advances in transportation and technology. Most people have lost the social support our forebearers had. Mental Health Professionals have taken on this role and are an excellent resource to improve your well-being.

I would be honored to help you in self-discovery and change. It takes a lot of courage to travel down that path. I often can intuit the key issues underlying a person’s suffering, which are often relational-both within ourselves and with others. To be kind and yet direct, and to really see you-both as you are now and how you want to become more whole. Finding clarity, compassion, and new ways to effectively deal with problems are essential in therapy. I will help you find where you are stuck and ways to get unstuck, by changing how you process both your thoughts and feelings. I work with both adults and couples.

My approach will be to listen to you and find out what you want and need, and we will work together on deciding the path I tend to use what therapeutic interventions are best to assist you and what will work best for you. I believe you will find that I listen and reflect well on what you are expressing and can help guide you to meeting the agreed upon goals. I like to create a safe place for someone to feel they can express themselves, their thoughts and their feelings. I am empathetic and I believe I connect well with people which helps guide people to reaching their goals. I think it is important to use some humor at times as well

My name is Randall Freitas and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California. I have over ten years of experience and have worked with people from many ages and backgrounds successfully. Much of the work that I have done has been with clients that have experienced trauma. If you need a safe place to talk about stress, anxiety, anger management, past trauma, being a survivor of abuse and/or grief processing please reach out to me so that we can schedule an intake interview. I treat all clients with respect and dignity. I am an ally and member of the LGBTQIA+ community. I'm looking forward to speaking with you soon.

A compassionate life-change approach is foundational to healing and lasting positive change. Anchored in compassion, you can begin putting to rest the voices of inner-criticism and condemnation that you may be experiencing. Much of my training and continuing education since becoming licensed as a psychotherapist are in the fields of neuroscience, research on therapeutic practices from a neuro-informed orientation, and trauma healing from a spiritually-based approach. I am also an Amen Clinics brain imaging affiliate psychotherapist with training in brain health and wellbeing.

The fact that you are reading these words tells us you have been attempting to overcome some type of life adversity. We often do not seek this type of help, mostly because of the many negative judgments that have influenced us since our childhood. It is these vary experiences, along with our own perception of them, that has caused and exacerbated the very symptoms we seek help for. It has been my experience that this history needs to be revisited, reviewed, and re-addressed so that we can overcome many of the chronic conditions that affect far too many in this world. “There is no birth of consciousness without pain”, Carl Jung

We want to offer the best possible solution to your individual issues. We strive to reduce trauma, create options, and teach individuals to function without emotional pain.

On the outside, things look great. You’ve become good at hiding how you really feel and putting on your “I-have-it-altogether” face. Inside, however, you’re feeling lost, out of touch and disconnected from yourself. Maybe your anxiety is causing you to lose sleep, or you find yourself isolating from friends and family because of depression. Maybe you're covering all of this up with drugs, alcohol or other risky behaviors. You’re not entirely sure how you got here but you know something needs to change. You deserve to feel reconnected, balanced, calm and happier. Let me help!

We will work with you to create and consider alternatives to old habits you want to let go of. Through our proven psychotherapy process, you’ll learn to develop new thoughts and implement desirable cohesive behaviors.
