Grief Therapists in Santa Clarita, CA

I practice a variety of different therapeutic styles designed to best address your own particular needs. Genuineness, empathy, and warmth serve as foundational elements of my way of relating. I place emphasis on facilitating an environment where you can feel safe to investigate life experiences in greater depth, identify and question deeply held beliefs that have been influencing your life, connect to and express emotions and bodily sensations as they arise in the context of our discovery process, and ultimately move towards developing a greater sense of strength, wholeness, and openness within yourself as you move forward.

Death and divorce catch most of us totally unprepared because we are not taught how to handle loss . We can feel so ill-equipped. Whether your loss is from death of a loved one, divorce or breakup, loss of trust, loss of safety or other meaningful emotional losses, healing is finding new reasons for living. Learn skills and tools to end the pain, isolation and loneliness. Discover healing and joy again.

Making the choice to get help can be scary and difficult. However, once you make that decision and you start receiving the help and guidance you need, you will feel listened to, safe, and empowered. We can work together to explore what is impacting your life and holding you back from having the life you want. I have over 13yrs of experience, working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families.

I look forward to working with you to navigate your life situation whether you are unable to move forward due to a significant loss or an anxiety provoking experience that was recent or in the past. I believe in using therapy for a defined period of time with the goal of regaining a sense of joy and purpose in life.

Hello my name is Kenji Watanabe. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and I focus on providing an engaging, collaborative, and supportive counseling experience. My style of therapy is collaborative, engaging, and lively. I value the client's input and personal goals for therapy. I take a client-centered approach within a Motivational Interviewing framework alongside a range of theories such as cognitive-behavioral, family systems, and psychodynamic orientations.

Trauma, grief and loss issues compromise the bulk of my client caseload. I find that adults can hold the impact of childhood trauma for years before seeking psychotherapy and often mask their pain with anxiety, depression or compulsive behaviors. My experience is that getting to the hidden pain and strengths that each client carries through his or her daily lives and relationships are the core of healing. There are no quick fixes, but exploring ways to accent life skills, improve self-respect and relationships are keys to building more wholeness in each person's heart, mind, body and spirit. Especially now.

Are you struggling with your emotions or relationships? I am here to help you find strength, resiliency, hope and solutions. I feel the goal of therapy is cultivating the self-confidence and compassion that is needed to help cope with all the uncertainties and difficulties in life. Can we be curious instead of judgmental as daily moments occur? The therapeutic alliance between client and therapist strengthens the integration of body, mind, and spirit, leading not only to a focus on personal healing, but on achieving greater well-being, peace, and passion for life.

I have experience with individual adults and children, couples, and families who are struggling with grief , depression, anxiety, academic problems, behavioral problems, low self-esteem, and young adult issues.

My goal is to offer a safe and warm environment so my clients can safely work through their mental health problems.

As a Relationship Specialist, Author, Podcaster and Speaker the first relationship I want my clients to look at is the relationship with themselves. Depression, Self Esteem Issues, Marital Conflict and even grief , are often a sign that you are truly on the search for who you are in this world. Whether you are a newly divorced adult, a couple striving to understand each other or a teen searching for self esteem, if you don't look within, you can never find your way to happiness. I offer Individual, Joint and Family Counseling. My podcast, A Journey To Awareness can be heard on IHeart Radio, Spotify, Apple and other Podcast platforms

Too often, we feel we are surviving rather than thriving. Do you feel stuck in grief or loss , or that your anxiety is running the show? Are your relationships painful or not satisfying?Also-Parenting is hard! Maybe you're a new parent and it isn't what you expected, or even hoped for. Nobody tells you about the postpartum experience -that internal voice in your head that is constantly critiquing the new role of motherhood you're taking on, mourning the version of yourself you once were. Not to mention the pain that comes with a birth plan gone wrong. If you're mothering without your own mother, that also comes with real challenges.

Life can feel intolerable in the midst of crises and problems. A mental health professional can help lighten the load. I work with a wide range of problems from trauma, abuse, relationship difficulties, breakups, divorce, grief , anxiety, depression, & family conflict. My practice focuses on helping clients find balance, solutions, and a new direction to a life free of suffering. On this therapeutic journey we collaboratively look at the past, present, future and identify patterns and hardships that seem to be getting in the way of leading a fulfilling life.
