Therapists in Auburn, CA

I love seeing people grow and overcome obstacles that previously seemed insurmountable! I work with couples and adult individuals. You may seek help with your partner when you feel like you're stuck in a loop where the harder you try to work things out, the more you wind up hurting each other. You may come on your own if you've hit a rough patch and need help regaining your equilibrium. My job, as I see it, is to join you and help you unpack your thoughts and feelings with an eye toward building a brighter future.

At this time, our practice is full. Please email or call to join the waitlist. Thank you. Are you struggling with parenting, connecting with your partner or building meaningful relationships? Or perhaps you want to better understand your spouse. We can often feel overwhelmed and unable to see our role in the problem. This tends to cause anxiety, depression, and can sometimes cause us to turn to substances to cope. Sometimes we just need a little guidance to get us to our goals.

You are struggling. Your life isn’t what you want it to be. We can help! We specialize in anxiety, depression, couples issues, addictions, sleep problems, concussion, ADD, and trauma. We are friendly and goal oriented. I have 25 years experience with adults, teens, and children. And, if you wish, we can also use Neurofeedback training. I taught Neurofeedback at San Francisco State University. This modality teaches you to change brainwave patterns that keep you from being your best. I’ve written three books, including a new one on enhancing brain function.

Treating individuals and couples with an emphasis on individual needs is my focus. Working together, we can identify patterns of communication that get in the way of a loving relationship. If you and your partner are feeling worlds apart, Emotion Focused Therapy can help bringing you closer together. EFT has a proven track record of helping couples like you enrich their relationships through the discovery and removal of these roadblocks to intimacy. Let me be your guide on this journey of discovery. Help is just a phone call away.

Worried? Anxious? Blue? Feelings can be the result of your situation,or they can be triggered by deeper issues such as attachment, trauma, and unprocessed memories. EMDR "turbocharges" the processing of painful memories. Adults, teens, and children with a history of abuse, trauma, and loss can heal quickly. I also specialize in resolving relationship issues and helping families become stronger. Whether you need help to navigate life transitions or to realize your full potential for emotional growth, therapy is a highly interactive process. Together we develop a plan for treatment involving care and commitment. Feel better!

Are you struggling to live the life you want and hope for? Are your relationships failing, or bringing you disappointment and pain? Are you feeling defeated, overwhelmed? I've walked alongside clients for over 19 years, and I know that by the time someone reaches out to a therapist, they really need help. I consider it a privilege and honor to work with clients and I do so in a collaborative, compassionate, educational and efficient manner. Therapy utilizes precious resources (time, money, energy) and I respect and honor clients through ethical, quality care that brings about healing and growth at the deepest levels.

We all walk through valleys in our lives, my hope is that you don't walk it alone. There are sometimes scary parts of us, my hope is to help them become less scary. I don't pretend to have all the answers, but I put my heart and soul into walking alongside my clients. I strive to have a safe and collaborative relationship in which we work together to find the answers and solutions you are in need of, striving to help you see yourself more fully, so that ultimately you feel deep healing and empowerment. We are all on a journey of becoming a better version of ourselves, it would be an honor to be a part of your journey.

You are struggling. Your life isn't what you want it to be. We can help! We specialize in anxiety, depression, couples issues, addictions, sleep problems, concussion, ADD, and trauma. We are friendly and goal-oriented. I have 20 years experience working with adults, teens, and children. And, if you wish, we can also integrate neurofeedback training into our work together. Neurofeedback uses the EEG (which neurologists also use) to teach you to change brainwave patterns that keep you from being your best. I studied Neurofeedback at San Francisco State University, and am Board Certified in Biofeedback.

Hello, I'm Bonnie Wagner, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with individual adults, couples, children/teens (birth to 18 years) and families, for over 25 years. I have a great deal of experience as a therapist, helping people develop treatment goals which assist them in achieving the most optimal and positive outcomes for themselves.

My clients are people of all ages who find themselves ready to move into a way of being and relating that they know in their hearts is possible. Experience has shown me that a trusted relationship is medicine that catalyzes our ability to meet our pain, question our beliefs, refine our visions, celebrate our joy—all of which are part of becoming ourselves. Within many frames of psychology, I have seen how easy it can be to become locked into identity structures that reinforce limitation. Energy wants to move. Experiences want to be known. Visions want to be honed. These intensifying days call to us whispering- time to transform.

You don't have to go this alone! I approach my clients with authenticity, non-judgement, and compassion. The issues that I would be honored to support you with include: depression; anxiety; working through trauma; grief/loss; major life transitions; self-discovery; exploring/cultivating creativity; exploring cultural identities; creating satisfying relationships; and understanding and resolving conflicts in family relationships. I integrate various theories and approaches based on your particular goals. Our work together can be exploratory or action oriented: focusing on the past, the present or the future; long or short term.

The best project you will ever work on is YOU (or your relationships). There is HOPE and everyone has a story. I am here to hear yours, your families, relationships or child's. I will coach you through the challenges you face with compassion and trust. I am a psychotherapist and the owner/director of Sierra Family Therapy Centers in Nevada County. I work with couples, individuals and troubled teens/children. My approach is strength-based, providing support and feedback to my clients in order to help gain insight towards improving your life.

At Center for Transformational Psychotherapy we are committed to the real possibility of happiness for every human being, regardless of individual background and circumstance. We work from a shared perspective that transformation occurs by developing a relationship with awareness, which includes and ultimately goes beyond the limitations of conventional ego psychology. Within this shared perspective we offer a wide range of therapeutic techniques and will work with you to find the therapist who best meets your needs.

Psychotherapy is one way to promote change which examines attitude, feelings, emotions and motivation when the individual, couple or family experience is less than funtional. The work is mainly to encourage the patient to talk and explore their feelings, beliefs, and thoughts which develops integrated mindful awareness. In other words emotional growth. Additionally, this is a process which seeks to help gain an increased capacity for choice, through which the patient becomes more autonomous,functional and self-determined. Dr. Laine strongly believes that this challenging work is best accomplished in an atmosphere of safety, caring, support and is dedicated to providing this for all patients.

Whether you are seeking counseling services for yourself, your child or your family, please know that there is hope. Choosing this step in your life takes courage and strength. I will support and guide you to reach your goals. I am semi-retired, so I can only accept a few clients at a time. I offer telehealth exclusively through ZOOM, which allows us to work together in the comfort of your home or office. I am licensed in both Utah and California.

We are defined by our stories. Working from a Narrative Therapy perspective helps me to support clients in a way that is unique and different from most traditional therapy perspectives. YOU are not the problem, the PROBLEM is the problem, and it may be time to develop new tools and skills to develop a different story for your life, one that you authored and can live by. Lets work together on helping you to develop the new story that will empower you to live the life you want!

Besides individual sessions, couples work sessions and Group Work, I also train clinicians in awareness based somatic psychotherapy. I also, hold two types of weekly groups that are ongoing, although they are open to new people from time time. Check my website and youtube channel (Circle of Being Somatic Shadow Work) to understand more about my work and different modules I have available. Before booking sessions with me, please watch the video called 'Watch this video before booking 1:1 sessions with Mihai Intro to somatic therapy vs talk therapy' (cannot insert this video here but you can find on my above mentioned youtube channel)

There is no time like the present. If you’ve found yourself here on my page, you have done what most can only dream of. You have taken the next step, one giant leap of courage, to do this work that you’ve been called to do. This work is not always easy, in fact it can be downright hard & uncomfortable, but it is necessary & rewarding. And with my guidance, hopefully the process can be more than just barrable, maybe even inspiring. It is scary to look into the abyss of uncertainty, but often my client’s find it was not nearly as bad as those nagging thoughts inside their head said it would be & many wish they had started sooner.
