Hello, my name is Dr. Jen Kirby, PsyD and I am a Licensed Psychologist in Santa Rosa. I have over 8 years of experience treating addictions, dual-disorders, codependency and severe mental illness. I can help address areas that hold you back from a more fulfilling life. Whether, you're struggling with the pains of addiction, feeling less motivated, overcompensating in your relationships, or have the self-defeating paralysis induced by anxiety. Together, we will work to create goals and a specialized plan that will allow you to regain your life. I offer an empathic, caring, and judgment free therapeutic space.

I work with adults experiencing a wide variety of issues: relationship issues, romantic as well as difficult parent dynamics, career stress, life transitions, pandemic stress. I have speciality working with PTSD and Substance Use Disorders, and PMS/PMDD. My practice is informed by trauma research in the neurobiological processes involved in healing, which privileges addressing present day struggles over re-telling and risking re-living the difficult or traumatic past. We reference the past enough to address its impact on the present. My practice is guided a by a commitment to social justice and an anti-oppression framework.

Currently Accepting New Clients I work with adults of all ages, identities and cultural backgrounds for individual, couples, and adult family therapy. Each stage in life brings new challenges. I support clients who are struggling with general life stressors, adjusting to new life circumstances, struggling with mood and anxiety, dealing with traumatic experiences, problematic substance use , family conflict and relationships in general. I also provide guidance for self-exploration leading to personal growth. Therapy focuses on discovering how your past experiences contribute to where you are now, and helps you see your way forward.

I work with clients ages 13 and above, individuals, families and couples. Primarily, I work with clients experiencing issues with anxiety, social anxiety, depression, self-harm, identity development, parenting issues, parent/child relationships, alcohol/drug abuse by teens and adults, recovery and rehab issues and reestablishment in the family, codependence (and family members affected by ones substance use ), bipolar disorder, ADHD, self-esteem, relationship issues, supporting medication management, as well as many other concerns.

In life we all have opportunities for growth and change, and no one person or challenge is the same. Therapy can be a place to gain awareness, insight, and most importantly find the confidence and personal power to make changes. I work to help clients identify and acknowledge what is not working for them as well as find their own path toward solutions.

Yes! You’re here. You’ve made it this far in your journey of self-discovery and self healing. I would be honored to assist you further. I like to think of a therapist as a spotter during a difficult mountain climb; sometimes you are so in your experience that you can’t see the path right in front of you, and a therapist can shout out “there’s a good foothold to your right!” A therapist has the ability to help you gain or regain your footing, be stronger where you are, or take a different path. My goal is to help you get where you want to go by helping you climb the mountain, together.

Life threatening experiences sometimes affect us long after the danger has passed. If you find yourself moving through the world in fear, avoiding situations that remind you, even remotely, of the past, EMDR can help. EMDR addresses the cycle of triggering and avoidance that can be so painful and disruptive. The typical course of EMDR is 1-10 sessions. It may sound unlikely that such powerful memories can soften and lose their hold in just a few sessions. But that is what you can expect from EMDR. It is why EMDR is the treatment of choice for PTSD.

I approach psychotherapy from a whole-person perspective and I believe therapy, along with other practices, can help us awaken to a life of meaning. In therapy I will help you identify the source of your longing to be whole, and together, we will move closer to that source, so you become re-sourced. Together we will explore your innate natural cycles and help you align to your own rhythm, so that you might meet depletion with rest and energy with creativity.

In my years of experience treating trauma, substance misuse, codependency, relational issues, & other mental health challenges, I've seen the shame, self-blame, confusion, frustration, loss, & hopelessness that come with difficulty coping. For some people, it can be frightening & difficult knowing how to support loved ones who are having mental health challenges, whether it is a parent, child, spouse, sibling, or friend. I recognize a desire to feel safe, understood, & to develop better coping skills that help with overcoming challenges & restoring self-esteem, confidence, meaningful relationships, well-being, & grace.
