"Visit my website DrRileyPsychotherapy.com to learn more about my practice, easily schedule an appointment online, or send me a message about a particular concern. Whether you're new to therapy or have been in therapy in the past, I will try to make the process go smoothly. Psychotherapy should be a collaborative effort between therapist and client, and I approach each session as an opportunity to learn something new. My style is engaging and interactive, and I help clients achieve their goals through a variety of empirically-validated means."

"My role as a psychologist is to help you navigate through a complex and stressful world. I'm most skilled at addressing issues related to depression and anxiety, relationship challenges, and self-esteem. Additionally, I enjoy helping people manage social and behavioral problems prevent healthy interactions with family, friends, and co-workers. I am experienced in addressing the challenges of both adults and children by drawing upon a few different theoretical perspectives to aid in helping individuals understand themselves, the origin of their problems, and how they can make changes in current life to feel happier."

"Tired of not living fully. Get therapy now! Learn tools to be more engaged and present with your life and the people in it. One such tool is mindfulness. Mindfulness is a way of directing your attention away from habitual thoughts(lists, judgements, negative self talk)and toward experiencing the present(where your life is actually being lived). I believe in the power of this work. Depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, difficult relationships and addictions can be products of molding to others' ideas of who you "should" be. I will work with you to uncover who you want to be."

"Are you in a life transition? Have you recently experienced the loss or change of a relationship, job or other significant part of your life? Are you finding that your relationships are unfulfilling or troubled? Are you at a crossroads and needing to make important changes in your life? I offer a safe, warm, supportive and interactive space for you and I to develop new coping strategies and conscious ways to move through your everyday life."

"I have been a therapist for over 25 years and have worked in many different settings. I am very experience in treating people with a broad spectrum of psychological problems. I have a long history of treating people who have experienced different types of trauma from sexual abuse to the effects of living in a war zone. I can help people who experience anxiety and depression and well as relationship issues. I am trained in cognitive behavior therapy but have study many other treatment modalities. I am a teaching and supervising member of the International Integrative Psychotherapy Association."

"People come to see me for a variety of reasons including: Relationship issues, stress and anxiety, depression and dissatisfaction with life, body image and eating issues, grief, transitions, and letting go, trauma recovery, identity, life purpose, and spiritual questions. I integrate mindfulness practice with psychotherapy to directly work with your thoughts, emotions, and habitual behavioral patterns for your optimal health and well being. Compassion, empathy, and presence define my relational approach."

"Are you searching for more meaning, joy or ease in your life? Do you long for more fulfilling work and relationships? Do you wish you had more confidence to live your dreams? It takes courage to take the risk to reach out for help and begin the process of exploring yourself. Psychotherapy is a safe space in which to release old patterns and beliefs so that you can move toward the life you most deeply want. I can help you engage fully with yourself, and we'll collaborate in identifying the specific methods and techniques that work best for you to achieve your specific goals."

"I work with people who are interested in discovering patterns of relating to themselves and others that keep them feeling unsatisfied. I work with people who are seeking relief from anxiety and depression, relationship struggles, contemplating life changes, grief/loss, expressing sexuality and gender and living more authentically."

"Thank you for taking a moment to view my profile. I provide an authentic, caring and safe environment that allows for clients to access their own internal resources to do the all-important work of therapy. Evening and Saturday availability."

"I believe that my respectful, collaborative approach to both individual and group work helps my clients feel both safe and honored in the work we do together. My website, http://www.therapistsf.com provides more detail about me and my work. I primarily use talk therapy with adults and talk and play therapy with children and adolescents. My goal is to help my clients find healthy alternatives to faulty "self-talk", irrational thought patterns and destructive behaviors which do not serve them."

"Are you struggling with feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, self-critical, disconnected from your body, unhappy or insecure in your relationships, overly anxious and stressed, and/or hopeless about future possibilities? If so, I encourage you to reach out to me for support. Through our work together my clients report feeling an increased sense of self confidence and awareness, appreciation for life, compassion for self and others, ability to clearly communicate, and capacity to tolerate their emotions and meet life's challenges as they arise."

"I work with both children and adults because I believe that no matter our age, childhood is extremely impactful to our personal development. With adults, I believe we can address current struggles and pain, as well as explore your past experiences to help heal the parts of you that have been hurt, abused or mistreated. Children are living in the part of their lives that will forever affect them as adults. My hope is to address the emotional concerns now so they can grow into adults who have the strength to thrive in life."

"Are you looking for more support right now? Are you looking for more clarity and meaning in your life? Would you like to access more creativity and joy in your life? I offer a safe space for you to explore questions like these. Using a holistic and eclectic approach, we will access the wisdom of the mind, body and spirit connection to find your answers. Some tools I like to work with are mindfulness, somatic awareness and guided imagery techniques."

"I like to start by making a warm and heartfelt connection with you, supporting and accepting you just as you are. From there, we work to transform difficult struggles into opportunities for greater self-love and richer understanding. Our process is collaborative, with you being at choice every step of the way. I use a blend of innovative approaches that have helped many hundreds of individuals and couples manifest, grow, and savor the relationships and sexuality they desire. In a relaxed, open, and deeply aware state, we discover our truths by gently dissolving shame-filled stories of the mind."

"If you want to understand or change the way you relate to yourself, your story and the world, if you want to feel at ease, strong, and secure inside, and if you wonder if that is possible, then we could be a great match. I believe that sustainable change happens from the inside and you have the capacity to create this change. I enjoy supporting my clients' curiosity to uncover and explore what contributes to who they are and how they connect with the people in their lives. I work especially well with traumatic experiences, troubled upbringing, grief and anxiety."

"I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I am also certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing). My theoretical orientation is attachment focused, and I frequently employ the use of EMDR. I work with folks of all ages. EMDR is a psychotherapy technique that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma. Using the protocols and procedures learned in EMDR, clinicians help clients activate their natural healing processes."

"Are you struggling in your relationships or personal connections? Suffering from depression or anxieties? Experiencing loss, grief or sadness? Work/life balance? You don't need to struggle alone. I'm a psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience, and I'm here to help. Individuals, couples and families call me when they're ready to tackle the problems that make life difficult."

"I will help you achieve your goals and overcome long-standing problems including: alcohol & drug dependencies, co-dependency, depression, anxiety, and fear of social situations. As your problems are resolved, I will work with you as a life and/or executive coach, helping you develop your expertise in work related situations, such as office politics, as well as with common family problems including mental and physical illnesses in family members, difficulties with adult children, adolescents, and aging parents. We may also work together on less tangible life factors, including spirituality."

"I see individuals for short term singular issue or transitional issues, as well as longer, deeper therapy for multiple issues and what has seemed like intractable patterns. I've found that people are people, and whether man or woman, straight or LGBT, young or older, there are hurdles that can really benefit from therapy. My experience has taught me that all issues CAN be resolved, bringing a more fulfilling relationship with yourself and with others. Despite my license name I actually do not see couples or families. However, I have great referrals should the need for either come up during our work together."
