Teletherapy for Orange, CA

The world may feel chaotic, but it doesn’t have to be! To those around you, you have a successful & fulfilling life. You are happy, friendly, & reliable. You appear to have things under control. But on the inside, you don't feel good enough. In fact, you don’t even recognize yourself anymore. It is exhausting to give so much to everyone else & still feel like you are struggling to take care of yourself. Your relationships, both romantic & platonic, are suffering. Some days feel easier to tackle than others, yet you feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, & want so badly to feel the way you once felt. It's time to reframe your perspective.

My objective for clients is to benefit from my experience as a psychotherapist, nurse, & human sexuality doctorate. Nine years ago, a client requested to speak to me while I was working as a nurse in an outpatient clinic. They confessed that under their masculine clothing, they wore feminine attire. They were contemplating self-harm as they were depressed by living incongruently. Their physician had denied them gender therapy. They eventually began attending psychotherapy with me to improve their self-acceptance. Hormone replacement plus gender-affirming therapy, enhance one's livability & authenticity increasing mental health.

We are living through extremely challenging times and so many people are struggling with anxiety, depression, loss of hope, and sense of loneliness.

Hello. My name is Ron Gray and I am a master trained therapist specializing in grief and trauma. My practice is limited to helping people understand grief and loss, heal through the pain of their loss, and successfully grieve. I’ll guide you through this process so you can really live again while honoring and remembering your loved ones well. I dedicated myself to this purpose after the crushing loss of my spouse years ago and I’ve helped hundreds of people on their personal grief journeys. We won’t just talk about your loss. I will help you take steps on your personal path to healing. Your life can be good again.

Painful memories can make one feel worried, on edge and disconnected. You might be seeking therapy because of conflict in your relationships and how alone and scared you feel because of this. Maybe you notice that your body quivers and shakes, you can’t speak because there is a lump in your throat, and you’re doing everything you can not to cry or lash out. You feel easily irritated over small things. You often think that you’re not good enough or that you are a burden to others. You’re sick of looping on things you wish you said but don’t because you are afraid of people being mad at you. You're tired of worrying all the time!

Life presents us many challenges. Sometimes, we become overwhelmed with how to navigate them. Whether you are a parent dealing with one of the myriad of issues you face with a child, a person struggling to find the joy you know life holds, feel you and your significant other have lost touch with the love that brought you together, or have suffered a life changing loss , there is hope. Albert Schweitzer stated "At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by the spark of another." Working collaboratively, I believe I can help ignite the spark inside you towards the changes that will bring you more joy and peace.

:: CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS :: I am happy that you are here.

As LGBTQ minorities, we often find ourselves wondering "where is my community?" and "why can't I just be myself?" It seems like we've tried everything but we don't feel like we belong or we are in a safe place to live & work. We often wonder... when is this going to get better? When can I just live my life fully how I am? Sometimes we feel sad and it can be a very lonely place. We can even forget just how special and unique we are because we are so different and surrounded by those who just "don't get it." We really want someone who can connect to us and make our experiences feel validated, reminding us that we are beautiful.

Have you found yourself asking any of the following questions or maybe made such a statement to yourself? ..."Why am I so anxious"? "I don't feel like doing anything today". "I feel so scared and don't know why". When you are suffering with anxiety, depression or other mental health issues these are common thoughts people have. You're definitely not alone and it can also be an indicator that it's the right time for some therapeutic guidance.

Sound familiar? It is not even 9 am, and your to-do list is already overflowing. You have meetings with so many people, and many subtly give you the impression that you are not "enough." Well, you ARE enough and deserve to feel less stressed and appreciated. It has been said that anxiety is the condition of our time. We worry about people liking us, doing good enough, and simply being enough. It is time to stop. It is time to learn some simple tools to reduce the daily anxiety that is often our constant companion. If this rings true for you, I'd like to help.

I find it rewarding to work with people who are on a healing journey and enjoy helping to identify unhealthy patterns that keep them from moving forward. I recognize that each person is unique and I treat each person accordingly. Whether you would like help with a specific issue or you are wanting to improve the quality of your life, I am interested in helping identify and resolve issues or overcome obstacles that keep you from living up to your full potential. I will work collaboratively with you to achieve your desired goals.

I have a passion to help those who are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, and relationship issues.
