Looking for a sex-positive therapist? I offer an open and accepting space in which you can be, or discover, your most authentic self. If you are struggling with issues of identity, have been harmed by messages about your body or sex, or are living with the aftermath of a traumatic event, I am here to offer my training and expertise to help you move from a place of pain and hardship into a place of peace and connection, both with me and with yourself. Therapy is more than just a place for talking. This is a place to experience safety and being seen. Allow me to join you on your journey of deeper introspection and self awareness.

You've tried the talk therapy thing before, but it's not working or as helpful as you hoped. Even with self-awareness, there's still a sense of shame, betrayal, hurt, and loss that seems to cling to you. These emotions can lead to a growing distance in important relationships, or a disconnect within yourself. You may feel lost and uncertain at times about how to move forward, like being stuck in a fog without a clear path to safety. However, we can work together through this difficult terrain to find the path towards the refuge of reconnection, healing, and remembering

Sometimes, we feel stuck in negative personal/relational patterns; are reeling from a loss, hurt or other traumatic events; are navigating transitions/changes and desiring clarity and direction; are grappling with existential/spiritual questions; struggle with anxiety, depression, anger, and/or addiction; or, are struggling with family issues including cultural conflicts and abuse. I collaborate with individuals, couples, and families to discover positive and adaptive ways to move forward that are uniquely empowering and authentic to who they are.

What doesn't hurt you makes you stronger.....but don't show your emotions!" Hi, I am David Vest, LMFT103919, in California and I specialize in trauma-informed. I have been practicing since 2010 and also work with anxiety, depression, cognitive disorders, substance use, and couples. I am most successful with adults and have currently limited practice with those over 18. I focus on the strengths and perspectives that people bring with them. I believe most of us already have many answers to our own problems and treat each person as their own expert.

Frustrated with your: relationship? sex life? child? I am trained in 2nd level, Gottman Method, a specialty that started with couples. John Gottman, the author of, "7 Principles of Marriage," is known for predicting divorce with 90% accuracy, has been influential over my career. The Gottman Method has transformed my practice to focusing on couples, parenting, and children. If you're looking for guidance through a challenging situation with your children, partner or anyone else, I look forward to working with you to accomplish your goals.

I specialize in providing therapy for motivated individuals & couples of all demographics who are dealing with various challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma & relationship issues. My focus is on empowering my clients to overcome their difficulties and achieve meaningful growth. As a virtual therapist, I have the privilege of serving clients throughout CA, allowing convenient access to therapy from the comfort of their own homes. I am deeply committed to helping clients who are ready to actively engage in their therapeutic journey, providing a supportive and transformative space for their personal and relational healing.

I work with adults, couples and families - and what remains consistent is the thread of hope we each have to be better, to do better, to feel better. We inherently possess that capacity and intensive therapy can bring about positive transformation. Through therapy and assessment I determine strengths, target goals and anticipated challenges. Collaboratively, we create and execute a customized treatment plan.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! My approach to therapy is non-pathologizing and client centered meaning I believe my clients are the experts of their own story. I work to collaborate with my clients on ways to approach their issues from a place of empathy and compassion. I place emphasis on my clients strengths and work to uncover areas in which my clients may not be able to see their skills being used.

There are circumstances in life that can prevent individuals to enjoy life to its fullest. Regardless of the reason, psychotherapy is a powerful and beneficial tool for healing and personal growth. I'm here to offer you support and guidance through the process. My approach is tailored to each individual based on each individual’s unique needs that sometimes involves identifying strengths, building self-confidence and self-acceptance as well as challenging unhealthy beliefs and coping strategies in a therapeutic, supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere.

Most of us go through difficult periods in our lives where we feel overwhelmed, alone, and confused. Sometimes, inevitable events in life, even happy ones, like starting a relationship, going off to college, or retirement, expose the wounds and memories from a recent or distant past that make the current situation painful and unbearable. While we survive those situations and adapt to the new realities of our circumstances, psychotherapy, specifically psychodynamic psychotherapy uses these moments as opportunities for a path for self-discovery and a chance to reevaluate our priorities and find meaning and purpose in our lives.

My theoretical approach pulls from Cognitive Behavioral Theory and many successful techniques (humanistic, strategic, psychodynamic, and solution focused), which allows me to personally tailor your therapy session based upon your unique needs in an eclectic and integrated approach to therapy. Therapist flexibility is a valuable tool in helping my clients gain a balanced perspective on the life issues they are facing. I view therapy as a collaborative, sharing experience and seek to help my clients feel safe, comfortable, and truly understood.

I believe that their is healing and growth that comes from fostering a space for other’s to share their life story. In facilitating this process, I will help you process life's events, discover your strengths and areas to improve, and support you in crossing the bridge to your next level. While I am qualified to work with a range of issues, I especially enjoy working with parents, children, youth and couples by supporting their development, facilitating their personal autonomy, and helping them navigate through challenging times.

Many people experience challenges in their sexual and relationship life and might be feeling alone or ashamed. Maybe you are struggling with intercourse, desire, arousal, pleasure, pain, performance anxiety, or shame around sex. Or maybe you've been disconnected from your partner, feel stuck in your conflict patterns, or are going through transitions or difficulties in your relationship. Everyone deserves a healthy and fulfilling intimate life. No matter your age or relationship stage, you can create a more meaningful and positive connection with yourself and your partner.
