Couples Counseling Therapists in Northridge, CA

As you know, life can get hard – and we can all use some help when we encounter challenges in our lives. Therapy can be the catalyst to the change you want in your life. I take a collaborative approach to therapy, in doing so I strive to create a non- judgmental, comfortable atmosphere. The foundation of the therapeutic service I offer comes from a Humanistic lens, that is to say, my emphasis is on the whole person and uniqueness of each individual.

I have experience working with all types of people and their current situations such as relationship issues, crisis intervention and prevention, trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use and abuse, bereavement, etc.. One of my passions is working with at risk youth, foster youth and their families. By creating a non judgmental and safe space, I believe that change can happen!

Hi, there. I know you've been searching for the right therapist, and I know it's frustrating to try to find someone you connect with. Whatever brings you here, I understand that trying to "have it all" in today's world is a goal that feels unachievable. Whether you have been feeling overwhelmed with worrying thoughts, not feeling like yourself, are grieving, going through a major transition, or want to work on your relationships with yourself and others, I believe we can make sense of it all together. You do not need to have all the answers all alone.

For more than 15 years I have been helping individuals, couples , families, and groups overcome challenges in their lives. I currently work with adults to treat a variety of issues and special in helping those impacted by addiction. I have a master’s degree in Addiction Counseling, a credential as a Licensed Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor and am a Nationally Certified Life & Recovery coach. My approach to counseling is one of collaborating with my clients to develop their desired goals for treatment, assess their challenges and strengths and then structure a plan that works for them to achieve their goals.

Effective 09/2021: Not taking new clients at this time. Hello and Welcome! I work with children, adolescents, and adults in individual, family, and group therapy.

Through your participation in therapy, you will be given the opportunity to explore how a variety of factors have impacted your life; and together we will find ways to process these life experiences, and learn ways to better cope that will provide you with comfort and safety.

Do you wonder why you have a big reaction to the small things in life? Seeking therapy, whether for the first time or the tenth time, takes courage and strength. I have heard from clients that even with cognitive insight they have remained stuck in distressing feelings/situations. I strongly believe that living coping skill to coping skill is not a viable long-term solution. Through personal experience, I have ascertained that knowledge of the root cause to a reaction or behavior is paramount to healing. I will not see you as a compilation of symptoms or a diagnosis, but rather as a person with needs that you are trying to get met.

If living through a global pandemic has proven anything, it’s that life throws us curveballs and isn’t always easy. Whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, relationship difficulties, interpersonal conflicts, struggles with your identity or faith, dissatisfaction with your career, low self-esteem, or any other challenge, I’m here to provide support and guide you in processing and navigating these experiences within a safe space free of judgement. I do not believe that a person struggling with their mental health is broken in any way in need of fixing, but rather needs warmth and acceptance that starts from within.

You may be scared to take the first step to get into counseling/therapy--this is something most of my clients have shared with me. Are you fighting the need to be perfect? Do you beat yourself up for all of your mistakes—whether it’s parenting related, work related, or relationship related? Are you completely overwhelmed to the point that you can’t sleep or stress is showing up in your body? It takes courage to ask for help because it requires vulnerability but you can do it!

You can overcome the challenges that you face today. Whether you are challenged by depression, anxiety, relationship problems, and/or another emotional health issue; counseling, specifically cognitive behavioral therapy, can help you overcome your mental health issues and transform yourself into the person you hope to become. I, Dr. Mark Sergi, have counseled adults, couples , and elders for over 20 years; helping hundreds of persons improve their emotional health and quality of life.

I believe in developing a healthy relationship with my clients to overcome life's challenges and reach their personal goals. The client goals are to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. The clients desire to have a healthy relationship , self-image, and self-talk.

Making the choice to start therapy can be intimidating, but taking the steps to care for yourself and your mental health shows that you are ready for some change. In order for this change to develop, I place immense value on the importance of the therapeutic relationship and provide a safe space for clients to feel understood, challenged and empowered without feeling judged. I want all of my clients to feel as though therapy is a safe place to vent, laugh, cry, gain insight, and grow as in individual.
