Cancer Therapists in California, MD

I work with people who are grieving the loss of a loved one from death....but also those who have been diagnosed with a chronic or terminal illness, those suffering the loss of relationships, independence, career or loss of community from moving to a new place, infidelity and those dealing with the loss of a beloved pet. Life is full of transitions. Many people end up feeling isolated, like the world is going on around you and you're just standing still, questioning whether you're going crazy or having a mental health issue because you're experiencing feelings you've never felt before.

Its not easy to maintain your health and mental wellness. It’s important to have a knowledgeable counselor you can trust. Feeling tired, annoyed and pulled in every direction by life is exhausting. Others might view you as a goal setter but you feel like your barely swimming above water each day you wake up. Dreading Mondays and lacking joy in day to day life. Not being your true self is no longer an option. You deserve to allow health back into your life. Being your best self involves setting goals not only for your career, family and education but for the balance your desire to thrive everyday. You can become the best you today!

2020 has been a tough year as we face this challenging time in our history. We’ve had to grapple with the longevity of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the uncertainty it brings. Challenges, which are further confounded by a complicated and divisive political climate make this a time of grief, trauma, loss, and difficult transitions for many. Physical distancing measures, forced adoption of new technology, and disruption of our routines, though necessary to reduce the spread of COVID-19, bring additional struggles with preventing isolation, remaining engaged with social supports, and coping with stress and anxiety. Please talk with a provider if you are finding yourself overwhelmed or if you are experiencing changes in sleeping, eating, or irritability, whether or not your challenges can be explained by current situations We have immediate openings for therapy and medication management appointments.

Sadly, today most people can’t tell you the difference between ordinary “counseling” and psychoanalysis. Please beware of therapists who claim to be “Jungian” but have no actual training in the field. CG Jung was, with Freud, one of the original pioneers who studied the unconscious as a way into themselves and their patients. In today’s climate, anyone can become a coach or a counselor and not even be required to do therapy themselves! IAAP certified Jungian Analysts are called to their work by the psyche itself. We practice actual soul craft, and if you’re being called, as well, perhaps we will walk the Soul’s own journey together.

"Will it always have to be this way? I don't know how much more I can take." This is a statement I hear often from clients when they first come to me.

My ideal client is one that has experienced trauma or crisis in their life, usually with their family of origin, struggles in relationships, has experienced anxiety, abandonment, or emotional, verbal, or spiritual abuse.

Hello and welcome! Sometimes our lives are stable; however, there are times where we are suddenly confronted with traumatic experiences or losses, such as health problems (dx. of cancer or terminal illnesses), the death of a loved one, separation of the family, loss of work, problems with our children, or academic struggles. These situations can make us feel unsure of our own capacities and emotional strengths which can lead to increased vulnerability, and can cause us to start experiencing high levels of depression and anxiety, or other emotional pain/fears.
