Providence Therapists in Rancho Santa Fe, CA
Feeling overwhelmed by addiction and looking for a way forward? Seeking an alternative to rehab or unable to take leave from family, work and responsibilities? Overcoming addiction is hard, likely one of the hardest things you will go through, and you don't have to do it alone! I have served countless people, just like you, in finding a new path that doesn't depend on substances or behaviors that promise relief, but often bring guilt, regrets, dysfunctional moods, and damage the relationships of those we love the most. Freedom from addiction can be hard to imagine, I know firsthand. Seeking professional support is a great step!

Are you looking to start individual or couples therapy? Life is busy and messy. Between work, relationships, family expectations, and daily demands, it can be hard to slow down and make sense of what’s happening. Therapy creates space to pause and reflect — to distinguish between the loud voice of self-criticism and the quieter wisdom of your inner compass. Together, we shift from reactivity to intention, strengthen communication, and build greater clarity, confidence, and self-trust. For more info on my work, check out my personal website: Pranapsychotherapy.

My focus is on the treatment of trauma, and how trauma manifests itself in each of my clients' lives. Untreated trauma often shows itself as substance abuse, depression, compulsive overeating, or compulsive sexual behavior. Trauma and substance abuse may make it difficult for us to make vital life transitions and transformations. We get stuck... so to speak. If this sounds like you, I want to provide a safe space to explore your concerns. I have both weekday video sessions and live Saturday sessions available. I primarily use Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to treat trauma.

You are successful by every external measure - and exhausted by an internal one no one else can see.
The decisions you carry don't come with simple answers. They involve your business, your relationships, your sense of who you are and who you're becoming. You've tried thinking your way through. You've tried pushing harder. The weight hasn't lifted.
I work with founders, executives, and high-responsibility professionals in California and Oregon who need more than traditional talk therapy. My clients are people who think deeply, carry heavily, and sense that the clarity they need requires going somewhere some therapy doesn't go.

My name is E. Penny Jacobo and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I believe many of our problems in life can be managed by changing our own thoughts and perspectives. We are usually more capable and powerful than we give ourselves credit for and I aim to help others find and use their own inner strength to solve their problems. I work with clients to identify cognitive distortions and change them. I also believe that taking the time to pause and be present at the moment is crucial to creating insight into our lives and our problems.

You're used to being the strong one: the one who holds everything together, puts everyone else first, or feels caught between your own needs and the expectations of family or culture.
If you're navigating ADHD, anxiety, burnout, trauma, or constantly wondering, "What's wrong with me?" you're not alone. Maybe you've spent years surviving in spaces that weren't built with you in mind.
