Therapists in San Diego, CA

I love being a therapist. I love helping people to find greater understanding of why they protect themselves in the ways that they do. Often these protective parts may feel trapped in these roles. Building harmonious relationships with these parts, leading from the most authentic Selves allows us to have greater liberation and fulfillment in our lives and relationships. The ways you protect yourself and survive make sense. Your pain matters. You deserve not to have to hold it alone.

I’m Lauren Mason, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, specializing in couples therapy, with a particular focus on helping couples repair relationships that have suffered an attachment injury, such as deceptions, addictions or affairs. I support couples who are insightful, honest and are committed to therapy as they work to heal and redefine trust, connection, and intimacy. I work with couples to break down the fear and anxiety they might feel, building the skills and tools for respectful engagement and resilience. I want to help you become even stronger because of the challenges you’ve faced.

In our work together, my essential goal is that you feel heard, respected, and understood. I find that one of the most important predictors of effective therapy starts with the relationship between client and therapist. I consider my role as your therapist an honor. I aim to create a comfortable, inviting, and safe space for you to share, and for us to work collectively. I feel your voice is just as, if not more, valuable than mine. With over 16 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families, I am confident that working collaboratively, you will find our time together beneficial.

Carey Sebera, LCSW. I allow the client to lead with their hopes and desires for therapy, and get to know what drives them. Therapy is not one size fits all, and I quickly assess what may or may not be effective with each person. Seeing patterns and addressing difficult behaviors is an important part of a therapist's role, but it takes willingness and honesty from a client. We only know what you tell us! I am trained in EMDR, trauma, and addiction. I look forward to helping you achieve the life you desire.
