Attachment-based Therapists in Pilot Hill, CA

Hi, my name is Morgan DeForest, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the Los Angeles, California area. My viewpoint of therapy is to help individuals grow and be able to understand themselves and others with a clearer lens. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families struggling in many different areas with an attachment and family systems approach. I believe that therapy is a truly personal experience. The decision to seek support is a courageous one. As your therapist, I feel honored to hear your story and work through the difficulties that life brings.

I believe we all are doing the best we can with what we've been given, but sometimes we need a little more. We need compassion for ourselves and our life situation, so we can see a way to a different future than the track we're currently on. I look at life and relationships from an unbiased and non-judgemental lense so my clients can focus on describing their experiences and situations without fear or worry. My goal is to help you make sense of things from a new perspective and to help you move through your current space differently, eliciting different outcomes than those you've experienced in the past.

I'm Michaela Johnson, a seasoned Clinical Sex Therapist and Collaborative Attachment Based Therapist. For over a decade, I've been navigating the intricate realms of human intimacy, drawing inspiration from the vast expanse of the skies to guide my clients through their emotional journeys. Just as a skilled pilot maneuvers through turbulent weather, I assist my clients in charting a course through the challenges of relationships, helping them soar to new heights of emotional well-being. My expertise lies in unraveling the complexities of human intimacy, addressing primal wounds that often hinder personal growth and connection.

Are you struggling to live the life you want and hope for? Are your relationships failing, or bringing you disappointment and pain? Are you feeling defeated, overwhelmed? I've walked alongside clients for over 19 years, and I know that by the time someone reaches out to a therapist, they really need help. I consider it a privilege and honor to work with clients and I do so in a collaborative, compassionate, educational and efficient manner. Therapy utilizes precious resources (time, money, energy) and I respect and honor clients through ethical, quality care that brings about healing and growth at the deepest levels.

My objective is to help people gain insight and live with more intention. I specialize in early childhood, family systems and couples. I work with individuals to support better function within the complex systems of family and society. I am passionate about creating a space for not only self-discovery and self acceptance, but to allow clients to feel seen, heard, and valued. I enjoy exploring with my clients is their upbringing and how it's affected their relationships. I have extensive experience helping clients use assertive communication to set boundaries in their relationships.

I offer confidential psychotherapy to adults, adolescents, and children in a compassionate, safe and nonjudgmental environment. My approach to therapy is client-centered, collaborative, and strength-based. It is my belief that we are all unique and one approach does not fit all. I enjoy helping my clients in a broad range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, co-dependency, relationship concerns, parenting, and adoption/foster-care issues. I consider it a privilege to come alongside and support individuals and families as they navigate life's many challenges and joys.

Welcome. I provide adolescent, family, and individual counseling and relational psychotherapy. I treat symptoms related to insecure attachment (relationships), trauma, anxiety, depression and addiction. Additionally, I have extensive experience treating individuals with personality disorders and specialize in ADHD. I believe in the resiliency of the human mind, body, and spirit and understand the vulnerability and courage it takes to initiate personal growth. I am a compassionate and dedicated practitioner that provides a safe and caring environment. I utilize a variety of theoretical approaches to meet your specific needs.

I believe we all need help sometimes. Life is a journey, a journey that can be painful to navigate. It is my honor to walk beside you. It makes a difference to have someone that can help hold the burden until you find your own strength. It is my privilege to hold space as you work through trauma, pain, and grief. Transformation is a process, and to have support integrating the pain into the depths of your soul, is a gift of connection. Soul to soul. If you are searching for an advocate and a healer, it is not a coincidence you found me.

Are you tired of being stuck in the same old cycle? Perhaps you are ready to make a change, but that initial leap is daunting. The possibility of transformation excites you, but the idea of failure holds you back from ever jumping. Maybe this change looks like a more authentic relationship with yourself or with your partner. You deserve to be free to genuinely express your truth and celebrate your authenticity. I am here to let you know you do not have to be alone in this journey.

I feel incredibly fortunate to help my clients find the freedom to live a life of their choosing, improve their relationship with self and others, and find peace. I use brain-based therapies proven to uncover and address issues that talk therapy can take years to heal. In doing so I help children, teens and adults overcome challenges that keep them stuck in negative patterns. Often traumas are at the root of these negative patterns. By offering Brainspotting, a cutting-edge therapy that evolved from EMDR, trauma is accessed, processed and released. This is life-changing. This is freedom.

My name is Lauren, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Calistoga, California where I work with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults. I specialize in anxiety, grief, life transitions, trauma, PTSD, and addiction. Depending on the needs of each client, I like to explore cognitive, affective, and somatic approaches to support them in experiencing well-being.

Couple therapy works differently for everyone. Is couples therapy appropriate, and if so, where do you begin? Couples can wait weeks to see a therapist who may be a mismatch for their situation. Couples who could benefit from couples therapy benefit most when they have a clearer picture of what to address and the type of therapist to see. How do you improve your relationship when you don’t know where to start or if it is worth the effort? This is how.

I provide integrative, holistic psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. Whether it's depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, grief and loss, or any of life's difficult transitions, I meet my clients where they are and work collaboratively to help them find healing, transformation, and wellbeing.

Are you struggling with anxiety, OCD, relationship issues or trauma? I help adolescents and adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, family issues, boundary issues, substance use as well as many other issues. Initially I want to provide support and develop skills to manage the stressors bringing you in to treatment, but I also help you move beyond stressors and help you connect to your authentic self and goals so you can manifest the life you want.

Do you find yourself taking care of everyone else's needs rather than your own? Do you often feel self-conscious, judge yourself harshly, and worry about making mistakes? Are you struggling with anxiety or insomnia? Many of us had experiences in childhood that made us feel that we weren’t good enough or that we had to be perfect in order to be loved. These beliefs are so ingrained in us that we often aren’t even aware that they exist, but they affect how we see ourselves, how we see the world, and how we relate to others. The good news is that these beliefs CAN be changed.
