Therapists in Exeter, CA

Thank you for letting me be a part of your journey! I am ONLY taking patients who are young/new moms or moms with depression. This focus specializing in helping moms (especially new moms) adjust to motherhood and the stressors that this transition brings is a passion of mine and I have been doing a lot of training to groups about this. Most of us LOVE our babies, but find the transition into parenthood difficult. I can help with Postpartum Adjustment/depression/anxiety/PTSD, Birth Trauma and just feeling "NORMAL" again. I love helping families!

My work with clients for over 29 years has allowed me to be part of a special journey with each person, couple, and family. My experience in serving as a psychotherapist, with multiple ages, socioeconomic, and culturally diverse clients has allowed me to learn how clients have needs and life goals, which are part of their life journey. I work with clients to identify who is writing their story in positive and adverse ways, which causes them to be 'stuck', wounded, or lost. During the therapy process, we explore skills and/or deep healing to assist them in moving toward healthier experiences, relationships, and living with purpose.

Let me help you sort out the thoughts and the feelings that are causing you emotional pain. Whether it's the pain of losing a loved one, a significant person to divorce, separation, death, or recent moving, immigration, loss of a job, or loss of health. I specialize in Christian counseling incorporating your faith into therapy for an authentic personal change.

My name is Maggie (Maria Magdalena) Martins, MA, LMFT 134812 I provide a safe and confidential space for my clients to inspire change through self-awareness and self-exploration. I conduct individual therapy with adult clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship, school and work stress. My approach and style are a great fit for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship, school and work stress. I utilize a person-centered approach, cognitive behavioral therapy, and integrate strength-based interventions to help my clients gain coping skills to improve their mental health and quality of life.

My name is Angelica Rodriguez. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I believe therapy should be a collaboration between a therapist and a client. I focus on helping clients improve the relationships that surround them. Ultimately, your most important relationship is the one that you have with yourself. I support clients to foster healthy relationships within and with others. As a bi-cultural therapist, I also pride myself on bringing cultural awareness to my approach.

I support individuals or couples dealing with relationship issues, anxiety, spiritual questions, emotional challenges, or men's specific concerns by integrating Christian beliefs into counseling. This approach respects and supports each person's faith journey and personal growth, aiming to provide healing and understanding that align with their values.

Beginning therapy can bring about numerous feelings and expectations. I enjoy learning from the unique worldviews that my clients experience life, and using it for the client's growth. I believe the lives we live are fluid in meaning, and we are the authors of the stories we live. I enjoy working with clients of various ages and backgrounds, but particularly enjoy working with teens, young adults, adults and families who are living through substantial life changes and transitions in the areas of school, work, and relationships.

Hello, My name is Victor Alcantar, LMFT and I have over 21 years of experience as a mental health professional. I have experience in working with acute and chronic mental health disorders. Not only do I believe that the relationship between your thoughts, feelings and actions are essential to your mental health and daily functioning, but I am certain that they are the foundation to healthy relationships with friends, family and intimate partners in your personal life at home, work and social network.

I am a passionate Marriage and Family Therapist who strongly believes in empowering those who are underprivileged and underserved. I specialize in helping couples who struggle with intimacy due to communication problems, sexual disorders, infidelity, trust issues, and other causes - including those who feel that they have 'fallen out of love'. I also have expertise in treating pornography and other sexual addictions, adolescent issues, children with behavioral problems, spirituality issues, and anxiety.

I assist individuals, couples, children, and families to find meaningful connection and worth in their relationships. I firmly believe each person is worthy of dignity, love, and respect; and help my clients to discover these things within themselves. As a mother of six adopted children, I have vast experience in the joys and struggles of parenting. I strive to help others build healthy attachments within couples, families, and parent-child relationships.

Imagine you arrive to your therapy appointment and as soon as you walk into the lobby, you feel safe, cared for and suddenly at ease. Then you meet with a compassionate, warm and supportive therapist who helps you process your thoughts and feelings, resulting in you walking out with hope, relief and the clarity you needed. This is the experience we hear from our clients time and time again and we are so honored that we get to provide this for each and every individual who walks through our doors. We have multiple therapists; each has their own specialty and unique approach, which means that YOU are someone we can work with!

Hello, I'm Elizabeth Phillips, LCSW, a compassionate and dedicated therapist committed to creating a supportive space for your personal growth and well-being. With expertise in working with both teens and the elderly, I bring a client-centered approach, drawing from various therapeutic modalities to tailor our sessions to your unique needs and goals. I look forward to collaborating with you on your journey towards positive change and resilience. I approach therapy with a client-centered and strengths-based perspective. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions.

You feel numb and hopeless. This feeling of loneliness feels hollow and empty and no one seems to get it. You feel as though the waves are crashing down on you and you cant catch a break. No one understands the pain, the hurt, the bad thoughts that scare you to death. You question your existence. You question if there is a high power, a light, just something to ease these feelings for just a day. I am here here to say, there is hope. I will give you the ladder and help you climb out of that dark hole and you will be able to live life again.

Hi, my name is Sandra Guillen. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of California and have a Master of Arts in Psychology with an emphasize in Marriage and Family Therapy degree from Chapman University.  I believe therapy is most beneficial when the client feels heard and supported. This is why I prefer a client center approach when practicing therapy. My focus is in trauma work to include PTSD and complex trauma.

Hello, i'm Randy. Despite being a therapist, I believe that no matter how many years of work experience a therapist has, and no matter how many credentials/degrees one has, all of that goes out the window if they don't have the ability to click and level with their clients. Initiating therapy services may feel like a leap of faith; as one would have to initiate a process in which they will be meeting with a therapist who is a complete stranger to them in the beginning. So congratulations on taking the first step for seeking treatment!

My name is Beatriz Velasquez and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Southern California and working with clients statewide via Telehealth. I’m a bilingual (English and Spanish) therapist with many years of experience working with different populations and ethnic groups. I focus on young adults, children, and families concerning issues of transitions, depression, anxiety, with a specialization in trauma and perinatal mental health. I use a strength-based and trauma-informed approach that uses mindfulness, Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) techniques, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

A faith based practice where science and religion do not contradict each other, but run parallel with each other. From substance abuse and depression to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, I have over 12 years of experience working in the mental health field. My practice is aimed at simplifying mental health by identifying underlying reasons why the mental health symptoms are present. One can expect to explore their subconscious, develop coping skills, obtain insight into mental health, develop a strong circadian rhythm.
