Teletherapy for California

Welcome! I work with adults and teens (ages 14 +) on managing Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar and Trauma through online appointments or in-person Walk & Talk appointments. Feelings of panic, being overwhelmed or feeling "out of control" can have an impact on how we function throughout the day. If these feelings create difficulty for you at work, school, or within your relationships, I am here to help.

The decision to start therapy with a licensed professional is like setting out on an expedition to both rediscover old territories and to discover new territories. One set of questions therapy asks is “What is it like to be me now?” “How do my past experiences affect who I am now?” “What is getting in my way, preventing me from being the person I feel I can be?” What we talk about during each meeting are those issues that are important to you in your everyday life, relationships, job, parents, children, things that make you feel happy, sad, depressed, or confused.

I believe everyone can overcome their struggles with the proper support and understanding. I feel confident about sending a welcoming message where everyone is validated, empowered, loved, and connected. Therapy is a slow process that requires a degree of patience and adaptability, which are qualities I possess and given my work and personal experiences, I feel confident in my abilities to help you heal. My goal is to help you empower yourself by uncovering past traumas that prevent your ability to live life to the fullest.

I warmly welcome you as you are, and hold a safe space to support your growth as your guide, witness, and companion. I enjoy working with clients who want more than traditional “talk” therapy. I offer experiential therapy, so you can go beyond cognitive understanding to having a transformative experience. I have an active style that is more than simply listening. I would describe the way I work as collaborative, curious, and challenging when it needs to be. I identify as a highly sensitive person (HSP) of gifted intelligence, both of which inform my work. My approach is mindfulness-based and somatic.

Sitting with oneself, whether in individual, couple or family therapy, is not easy and I see my clients as courageous and hopeful for taking this step. Sometimes therapy is healing and transformational, other times it is simply a space to take some deep breaths. Either way, my practice is always client-centered and compassion-based, being present with you in whatever space you are in. My hope in working with me is that you develop a sense of self-compassion and a strength-based lens to view yourself and your relationships through.

Love, connection, and safety are the sources by which all relationships and individuals thrive. My wholehearted pursuit as a therapist is to welcome individuals and couples into an environment constructed and bound by these foundational needs. I believe our most significant relationships sculpt not only how we see the world but also how we see ourselves.

If you have not had much success so far with therapy and feel that the suggestions have not helped to shift things in your life, I may be a good fit for you. I can help you explore what is contributing to your feeling stuck and overwhelmed and move beyond it towards real healing. I work with children, teens, parents, adults and families. Being a parent myself, I can often bridge gaps between children and parents.

I specialize in a clientele who is ready to make a change in their life and are ready to do the work required to achieve their goals. Whether you are experiencing trouble in your relationships, attempting to change familial patterns of behaviors or you are having difficulty managing life’s stressors, I will meet you where you are and dive in with you to increase your self-awareness and affect lasting change. I have worked with a diverse range of clientele issues and diagnosis and am prepared to help you achieve your personal goals.

I would love to support you on your healing journey. Whether you are suffering with chronic depression or anxiety, seeking to release long held trauma, or looking to heal attachment wounds so you can experience deeper intimacy and authenticity in your relationships, I would be honored to walk with you on your path. Whatever your struggles may be, I will offer you a safe space to deeply self-attune, to explore all parts of yourself, and carve out new ways of being and interacting with the circumstances and people in your life. I am also accepting adult clients for Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in Los Angeles, California.

Clients I have worked with desire a safe place to grow and learn to accept themselves after experiencing a variety of life struggles. I believe people can learn to find the potential that is already within them when given helpful guidance. I have experience working with a variety of clients including adults with psychosis, developmental disabilities and who identify as neurodivergent. Growing up with a learning disability myself and a tendency to stim, I understand many of the struggles of neurodiversity and am passionate about working with them.

If you are struggling with mood, anxiety, motivation, energy, sleep, preparing for or adjusting to a new baby, having relationship turbulence, or difficulties at work or school, I may be able to help. I work with a lot of college students, parents, and corporate workers to help gain clarity, resolve symptoms, build resiliency skills, and get unstuck from unhelpful patterns. I have a specialty interest and intensive training experience in prenatal and postpartum issues and enjoy helping moms and dads navigate the beginning of parenthood. As a yoga student and teacher, I'm a big fan of using yoga practices to assist with healing.

My practice focuses on working with individuals, couples, adolescents and their families from a family system perspective. I believe that all of us benefit from recognizing who we are within the construct of our larger social dynamics. I am a psychodynamic and interactive therapist, focusing on your strengths as a means to work through your challenges. I will work with you to identify your therapeutic goals, and we will explore how best to reach your desired outcomes. I am creative, empathetic and very pragmatic. Therapy is a journey, we will work hard together to make the most of your energy, finances and time.

Want more than just a comfy chat, week after week? Have you tried therapy before and something was missing? Maybe you need a different experience.

Hello, my name is Cecelia Pooley Gillespie, LCSW, SEP. I work with all ages, with a recent focus on youth and families, including those in rural and Indigenous communities.. I can help with anxiety, depression, PTSD, stress, parenting, life transitions, and more. My therapeutic approach is strengths based and solution focused. While I find the cognitive and behavioral lens of CBT, DBT and Narrative Therapy to be valuable, I believe it can be important at times to also incorporate Experiential Therapy, such as creativity, movement, and expression, as well as Somatic work for exploring the mind-body connection.

I am currently accepting new clients. I am a compassionate therapist who is passionate about supporting others on their path towards growth and healing. I work with people to help them understand how their past has shaped their present, break free of unhealthy patterns, and heal from emotional wounds. I believe positive change and healing occur in the context of safe relationships. When we feel seen, understood, and relationally connected, we can overcome life’s most challenging situations.
