Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Downtown, San Jose, CA

Hi there, I'm Jennifer! I am a licensed clinical social worker with 6 years of experience working in the mental health field providing individual and group therapy. My specialty is in working with self-esteem issues, life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, and spiritual crisis (spiritual awakening, shadow work, “dark night of the soul”). I operate from a humanistic theoretical framework; which just means, I focus on the Individual as a whole and their existing strengths and positive behaviors. I meet you where you are at and welcome you without judgment.

Most mental health providers assist the patient(s) with the process of gaining interpersonal awareness, but do not specialize in both the emotional and physical aspects of intimacy. Alternatively, most intimacy coaches do not specialize in the psychodynamic underpinnings of human attachment and resulting relational dynamics. I offer a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential environment that allows couples or individuals to address issues, questions, and concerns pertaining to sexuality, intimacy, and relationships.

Everyone deserves a safe space to process their trauma and mental health struggles. In my practice, I provide individuals, couples, children, adolescents and parents with a judgment free environment to be able to talk about/ express their emotions around difficult topics. I have experience in working with individuals who are struggling with Complex PTSD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from childhood sexual abuse and other traumatic experiences as well as Depression, Anxiety . I am also trained to work with those who are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, developmental disabilities, and their families to improve mental health.

As an emotion-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you and/or your family to achieve your goals.

Individuals come to me for a variety of problems; most often to improve the quality of their life and get relief from nagging self-doubt, anxiety, depression and emotional distress due to life changes and loss. They come to me for clarity, direction and tools to move beyond old patterns and take action to achieve a greater sense of freedom, fulfillment and authenticity.

To support my clients during this time of uncertainty, I am offering Tele-Therapy option for those who are distancing or quarantined. I am a California licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience working as a psychotherapist, life coach, corporate coach, and college professor. I have helped clients who have presented with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, relationship problems, divorce, parenting issues. I tailor the treatment to your specific needs and goals, combining insight-oriented, solution-focused, and multicultural perspectives.

Life is an ongoing journey of growth and learning. It involves ups and downs, and ruptures do happen. Do we know how to heal and repair those ruptures? Whether processing grief or trauma, or wondering if intimacy and trust can ever happen, or wondering why we stay stuck in unhealthy patterns that just aren't working, I will help you uncover what it is you really want for yourself and then support you in committing to a path forward. I also welcome the challenge of helping partners listen and feel heard as separate individuals, so that they can collaborate on a shared vision that works for all involved. You deserve more joy!

Issues stemming from anxiety, stress, depression, and trauma can get in our way of living a satisfying, fulfilling life. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We all have within us the capacity to cope with, and even grow from, hardships and challenges. With my guidance we will explore and process the underlying fears, unmet needs, and negative beliefs that keep you “stuck”. We will cultivate your inner strengths to help you become healthier, more resilient, and enjoy more positivity in your life and your relationships with others.

Hello and welcome! It is not easy taking that first step to get help. However, the effort and time you put into working towards bettering yourself can be life changing! Whether it is anxiety, life challenges, and/or stress I would love to work with you, support you and be there during your journey.

Do you feel stuck between two or more worlds, unsure of who you are? Or perhaps you feel trapped in the life you’re currently living. Whether that means sharing your hopes and dreams, making needed changes in a relationship, or expressing your sexuality; I help people better understand themselves, and who they really are underneath cultural, social, and other external expectations and pressures. I am an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor (APCC) and an EMDR certified therapist who works with adults and adolescents. I work under the direct supervision of Dr. Jessica Borelli.

Do you ever feel disconnected from yourself or others? Although our country has made progress in raising mental health awareness, a great deal of stigma remains. In many communities, these issues are often shrouded by silence and shame, fostering mental health minimization. I have experience working with individuals and family relationships. I work with problems that arise in blended families, work, health, and career, trying to create better relationships and less conflict. Through role-plays, Gestalt techniques, and mindfulness, you can gain the power to reflect on your feelings, understand yourself and feel better.

I currently have a short in-person waitlist (office is located in Cambridge, MA) and am not currently taking new telehealth clients - please email (rather than call) if you're interested in being added to the in-person waitlist. I work with adults, teenagers, and children around a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, OCD, relationship issues, life transitions, and the impacts of trauma. I have eight years of clinical experience, and three years of training through Harvard Medical School affiliates. My approach is relational, collaborative, and pragmatic. I specialize in (but don't limit myself to) the following areas:

Hello, my name is William Webster and my approach to the therapeutic process is to engage in a collaboration with an individual to support change in the areas of anxiety, trauma, depression, parenting, employment, and changes that occur over the course of one's life. My focus would be to learn about the individual's life to support healing and change in the areas of depression, anxiety, parenting, employment challenges, and life changes. In sessions, I strive to create an atmosphere of calm consideration that encourages exploration of the circumstances as well as the development of steps to reduce one's current struggles.

Do you find yourself in a constant state of ‘doing’ in order to stay regulated and out of your head? Are you trying to care less about what others think? I work best with individuals who refer to themselves as “over-thinkers” and are looking for new ways to manage the stress of day-to-day life. Contact me for a free consultation if you struggle with the nagging feeling of being disconnected from others, or if you wonder what it would feel like if you could break free from your inner critic and the feeling that you’re lacking despite a mountain of accomplishments. I offer Art Therapy if you'd like to tap into your creative wisdom.

Are you a driven person yet having difficulties managing your relationships, work stress, and family life? Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Do you need help getting through a traumatic event? Are you feeling like you’ve exhausted all your coping skills and nothing seems to work? From a trauma informed and attachment-based lens we will explore your core issues and help you improve your mental health and emotional well-being. You can heal from past trauma, learn to regulate your emotions, lift your mood, and communicate effectively. Together we'll work through unresolved feelings and patterns to live a more authentic life now.
