Chronic Illness Therapists in 92128

Hello, I am Kelleen Stainer. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California. I take a 'client-centered' approach to therapy and believe therapy is a partnership between the client and the therapist. I typically work with adult clients in need of additional support to cope with their current life challenges. I am most comfortable treating individuals with generalized anxiety disorder, depression, grief, self-esteem issues, chronic illness and relationship issues.

Do you find yourself struggling with certain aspects of your life? Is it anxiety holding you back? Do you find yourself struggling with negative thoughts? Or perhaps you have had life throw an unexpected twist or turn and you are feeling overwhelmed. Therapy has taught me that not only can we cope through these issues, but we can become stronger from them. You can start living a better quality of life.

Hi! My name is Kristin Flowers and I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist here in beautiful California. I specialize in helping anxious people to heal and recover from perfectionism, gas lighting, and toxic relationships, as well as past events or memories that may still be impacting life in a negative way. I help people who are trying to be perfect and feel exhausted and wondering who they are anymore. The people I help are feeling anxious, lonely, and stressed out to the breaking point. Sleep is difficult if not impossible. Asking for help is so hard because you're so used to fixing everything yourself.

Now more than ever, it seems that so many of us are facing circumstances that make life stressful, confusing, and painful at times. The purpose of our work together is to help you live a healthier, happier, and more meaningful life. Whether you want to be a happier person, to have better relationships, or to simply understand yourself better, I can help you achieve this. I combine support, insight, and direction to help you have the skills to better manage your life, and obtain greater peace and joy. There is no greater privilege than helping a person improve their life, and I appreciate the opportunity to help you!

Hi. My name is Watha Dubonnet. In addition to being a Marriage and Family Therapist for thirty-plus years, I have raised three kids, been worked over by a two-year-old, and survived their teenage years. I fell in love with my Grandson, forgot how to say no, but he grew up in spite of me anyway. Life throws all kinds of fastballs at us sometimes and I am here to help. You are not alone. I generally work with clients who are seeking help, safety, and understanding of their current situation.

Everything is different now. Since your cancer diagnosis, your entire life has been turned upside down. The future that once felt so bright and full of potential now seems dark and frightening. Not long ago, your schedule was packed with dinners, dates, and vacations. Now, your calendar is all doctor appointments and hospital visits. The physical exhaustion and side effects of treatment pale in comparison to the emotional toll. You’re constantly wracked with fear over your illness. Loved ones offer support, but they don’t understand what you’re going through. You wonder if you’re going to feel this scared and lost forever.

Do you feel frustrated in life? Do you want to know where went wrong and where can make new changes? Do you have fear for things, others, and your own future? Do you feel stuck, unmotivated, or unsure about the meaning of your life and purpose? Do you feel you need someone to be there for you as your resource and support team? I am here for you. I will hold a safe place for you to explore your inner world and the outer world. I will guide you to find your own path, passion, and your meaning in life. Don't waste your life. You deserve a better life with inner joy and peace.

I believe that change is possible for everyone, no matter their circumstances. Whether it is anxiety, depression, grief, relationship troubles or things that seem like no one could understand, there is hope in that struggle.

I try to take a unique, holistic approach by blending psychological tools with a somatic perspective. This creates a process that is more experiential in nature, which I believe is an important building block for change.
