Therapists in California

Because everyone comes with their own needs, goals, and styles, I am flexible in my approach. I can be practical and problem-focused, but much of my work is deeper, and deals with emotional patterns developed early in life, I work a lot with trauma and loss. Attending to the therapy relationship is also important for learning about relationship patterns and trust. I bring my love of creativity to my work as well. Working with dreams and imagery, I find, can bring surprising insight. When therapy really takes off, I find that clients often discover their own creativity and a sense of life purpose.

Do you ever struggle with feeling disconnected, like you don't fit in, or like you're watching the world happen around you from the outside in? Do you feel like you need someone to really understand you? To feel heard and unconditionally accepted in a space of your own? Above all, the most important aspect of therapy is the relationship we will cultivate together in session, which is in and of itself an invaluable tool. I value the concepts of authenticity, comfort and client autonomy in the therapy space. We will always go at your own pace. Where you go in that space, I will be there beside you.

Psychotherapy is about transformation, but that takes commitment and courage. Having someone you trust to guide you through such a process can make all the difference. A genuine and supportive therapeutic relationship can help you take an honest look at your feelings, your thoughts about yourself, and your relationships with others, removing the barriers to a healthy and fulfilled life. With curiosity, we can address these obstacles together.

*Accepting new clients. These are really tough times. Uncertainty and shifting social norms are taking a toll on our mental health. Have you been going through the motions only to find that now everything feels intolerable? Are you finding that what has worked in the past isn’t working any more? Do you feel like you just don’t care, or just feel disconnected? I can help. Let's get you to that place where you are enjoying yourself and others, even when life throws you challenges. I work with individuals and couples who want a safe place to get curious, be honest and explore old patterns that are keeping you stuck.

Are you experiencing challenges dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship/family issues, and trauma/PTSD? Due to these symptoms, we can be in too much emotional pain and feel too stuck to reframe our perceptions or to find solutions to our problems. Childhood or recent trauma can cause emotional distress that can be difficult to process. I am here to support you in working through unresolved trauma and guide you toward healing. Therefore, you can feel empowered, rejuvenated, and enthusiastic about life again.

Are you feeling like no one understands you? Having feelings of not belonging and that you don’t even know your own self anymore, I am here to help you to navigate through this feelings of uncertainty and not belonging. Very often, others, like family and friends, can’t understand our trauma and pain, and we don’t want to burden them with it anymore. We feel like a broken record when we share that we aren’t doing well. We are embarrassed that we haven’t healed by now. Healing doesn’t have a timeline. I’m here to help you discover what you need and to make sense of your overwhelming feelings of confusion and anxiety.

Do you feel as though your anxiety and depression are unmanageable? How about feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or helplessness like you’ve hit rock bottom and are struggling to find hope for tomorrow? Once we start to unravel the details of our past and trauma we give ourselves the ability to process feelings that we have long suppressed. I aim to collaborate with you and provide tools to decrease the challenging feelings you are currently facing and achieve a more integrated and balanced sense of self, leading to emotional healing and personal growth.

Life can feel impossible to avoid struggling and we often don't feel we have the skills to cope successfully through. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't have all the resources we need for a given situation. Parts of us take on desperate roles trying to help us to survive. This might look like anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and relationship/family issues. I aim to help you process unresolved issues and feelings and find solutions.

Thank you for taking this important step on your journey of healing and well being. My name is Stephen Gundlach. I am a psychotherapist working with individuals, couples, and teens. I see therapy as a process in which the therapist walks alongside you as a mirror and a guide to your own unfolding understanding of yourself and your unique story. In this process inner strengths and resiliencies are identified, habitual patterns that are no longer helping come to light, and desired growth and change become possible.

Many of the people who reach out to me for therapy describe themselves as disheartened and distressed with some major part of their lives. Some feel sadly disconnected in their intimate relationship with a primary partner or spouse. Others feel they can't find a way to communicate and connect with a parent, child or sibling. Other people want relief from feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed by stress. What they all have in common is a genuine desire to feel more deeply connected in their relationships and to live more fully and with greater ease. Does this sound like you?

Are you having the dawning realization that you aren’t living life as fully as you could be? Are you experiencing troubled relationships, a narrowing sense of possibility, or wounded self-esteem? Or maybe you simply have the gnawing sense that it’s time for a change, but no idea how to make it happen. If so, this is a great time to step into therapy. I use a collaborative, depth-oriented approach to help individuals and couples overcome obstacles, build on their strengths, and move through a variety of challenges.

Feeling stuck? Whether you’ve worked with a therapist or two, or have never been to therapy before, if things don’t seem to be going your way, it may be time to do something different. Do you feel seen? Have you felt lost or further isolated by a merry-go-round of generic, disconnected, or rushed sessions? Are you looking for someone to help you gain practical, actionable knowledge/skills, to become more self-aligned, grounded, empowered, and consistently supported with sessions tailored to you and your unique journey? Then take THIS opportunity toward positive change! Let this be your season of new beginnings…

The interface between contemporary psychology and the wisdom of contemplative practice spirituality is central to my work with individuals and couples and to my general approach to therapy. With the use of MINDFULNESS based therapy and a non-judgmental and non-pathological approach I create a healing and supportive environment were growth and transformation can take place through our in depth process of exploration.
