Therapists in Santa Teresa, San Jose, CA

My name is Devin Nigh and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Oakland, California and supporting California clients via telehealth sessions. I specialize in working with adolescents, children, and young adults and use a humanistic therapy approach and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools to help clients and families make positive changes in their lives. I help young adults and youth facing issues such as Anxiety, Depression, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Trauma, and Substance Abuse

Welcome. Bienvenidos. I'm here to help you learn concrete strategies to manage issues like anxiety, depression, life stress, behavior, relationships, and to find greater self-compassion. The basis of my approach is respect. I enjoy working with folks of all ages from different cultures and backgrounds, including various ethnicities, LGBTQ+ identities, immigration histories, and living situations. With over 20 years of licensed practice, I have specialty experience in many areas. Currently I'm available for telehealth sessions for preteens and older (11+), and parent consultation for parents with any age child.

Hello, I'm Dr. Eric Gardner, licensed psychologist. I specialize in helping people struggling with ADHD, anger, self esteem, family conflict, trauma, PTSD, and more. I use primarily cognitive behavioral therapy, dynamic, and humanistic modalities. I have worked with patients across the human lifespan, which has always been important to me in my career. I can now say that I have discovered a human commonality that is essential to success in treatment and of extraordinary value to every person regardless of age or gender or development. I am here to help and share this perspective with you.

As I complete this profile, I’m struggling with labeling myself in some categories: the human experience & connectedness can be much deeper than our similarities. My goal is always to provide a supportive and safe environment that allows you to explore your thoughts, feelings, behaviors (patterns), and find their connections to one another. I also strongly believe that validating our experiences can really free us to change the trajectory of our lives, into the direction we want it to go -as you seek resolution for the issues that bring to therapy.

I have worked in a variety of settings, including community mental health centers, college counseling centers, hospital clinics, and HMO clinics. Therefore, I have experience working with a diverse range of patient populations and presenting issues. My predoctoral training helped me to assist clients with depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. My postdoctoral training focused on trauma work, including sexual assault and child abuse. I welcome a complimentary phone consultation.

As an emotion-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you and/or your family to achieve your goals.

Hello, I am Lisa LaMoreaux Bergfeld LMFT. I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages to help them conquer their life's challenges. I am here to help you learn new ways to navigate your journey through life in a healthier and more productive way. During our initial session, I listen to my client's concerns and their reason for seeking therapy at this time. From there we set goals to create some positive change towards the client's goals. I welcome anyone who wants to better themselves and their relationships. I am here to help my clients restore brokenness in any relationship.

A quote that has always brought me courage, "Into the Great Perhaps," moves us to embrace the unknown. It's an invitation to dream and a challenge to have the courage to step into uncertainty. This concept deeply resonates with my therapeutic approach. I emphasize that embracing uncertainty is where growth and transformation occur. In therapy, we'll explore the uncharted territories of your thoughts, emotions, and relationships and view life's challenges as opportunities for personal growth.

Are there certain aspects of your life that you are dissatisfied with?  Are there struggles within that leave you drained?  Anxiety, depression, work distress, relationship and family conflict, trauma, grief and loss are all a part of being human.  In therapy, I offer support, tools, help with emotional regulation, reframing your false self beliefs and healing your inner child.  From the school sandbox, to the hospital, to the privacy of a quiet office, I will meet you where you are at without judgement.

Parents, are you worried that your teen or young adult may be stressed or depressed? Are they refusing to communicate with you, staying up real late at night, becoming defiant and or have excessive use of gaming or social media? Has social distancing caused them to isolate from friends and family and sleep all day? Have they seemed to have lost all motivation and have no structure to their daily life? My name is Tametra and I am the founder of Jacobs Ladder Therapies. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years experience working with teens and young adults.

Be seen within four days! I have sixteen years of experience as a cognitive behavioral therapist and have years of experience as a clinical supervisor. Life is constantly changing and navigating those changes on your own can be difficult. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental and confidential space where you can share your thoughts, feelings, and concerns.

I currently have immediate openings for both telehealth and in-person! I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore what's going on in your life, including uncomfortable emotions, relationship issues, and past experiences. I am empathic and open-minded, allowing each person to share their unique self in therapy. Therapy can be challenging and emotional, and together we can set goals that move you towards healing and self-improvement. I take a holistic approach to therapy, with an emphasis on your biological needs (exercise, sleep, nutrition, physical illness, etc). Therapy may be short-term or long-term.

I believe therapy is about getting to know yourself on a more intimate level. I listen in a caring, compassionate and non-judgmental way that allows you to see more clearly what your issues are about. i hold space with the awareness that you are a soul with the wisdom and intelligence to deal with whatever life is offering you at the moment. i am highly skilled with working with people looking for self-actualization, therapists in the making and those interested in self-growth and transformation.

Writer John O'Donohue defines my view of being a therapist: "This is what therapy is about: helping people retrieve what has been lost to them, wakening and bringing home their fundamental wholesomeness.. Therapists are like poets: they draw on the power of words in the profoundly creative work of bringing people fully alive to themselves, awakening in them the human capacity for divine imagination that ‘dreams our completion’.”

Are you ready to embark on a journey of personal growth and emotional well-being? I'm here to be your guide and support you every step of the way. I'm a compassionate psychotherapist fluent in both English and Farsi, and I can converse in Hindi and Urdu as well. My mission is to create a collaborative partnership with each client, empowering you to take charge of your life and develop the skills needed to overcome challenges. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, navigating life's transitions, or seeking to improve your relationships, I'm here to help.

Are you feeling stuck? Overwhelmed? Unsure of how to move forward due to past pain, current challenges, or future worries? Although seeking therapy can be scary and daunting, I also believe it can be a catalyst for personal growth and change. I want to walk with you on your journey through these experiences that evoke difficult emotions, such as sadness, anger, hurt, and confusion, to help you find your strength through the process.

I work with women, children, teens, and couples. I know that life is challenging and sometimes you need someone to come alongside you to help you learn to navigate the storms that life can bring. I help clients mend the wounds of the past, develop positive coping skills, and engage in stronger relationships.
