Therapists in Valencia, CA

To the outside world you have it all together. You are able to get up each morning and function and manage to get through your day. But behind the exterior, you're not ok. Perhaps it's the what ifs or your mind/thoughts won't shut off or you're stuck in a frequent state of worry. If only you could turn off the worry, you will be able to breathe. Maybe you're struggling when it comes to relationships (dating, a significant other, spouse, parenting, family, friends). You feel stuck in the same patterns. Sometimes it feels like the same story, different day, different relationship. If only you could figure it out, you will be happy.

I believe that every person has the potential to change and grow in spite of life's challenges. My background is in trauma and grief, which I view as the primary stressors manifesting in anxiety, depression, and difficulty functioning in day-to-day life. I support my clients in growing beyond their negative life experiences so they can experience confident hope as they move forward in life. I enjoy working with people of all ages, and I maintain specialty training for early childhood (birth - 5) and teens.

I am a licensed professional clinical counselor and I have enjoyed working with children, teens, and adults for thirty years. I feel passionate about helping individuals and couples find peace and healing for their lives and relationships. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, anger or relationship issues I can offer help. As a couple you may feel like you need to learn communication skills or how to reconnect emotionally. Perhaps you are having family problems and need help finding resolution. I have found that counseling provides the tools and resources to help us manage and overcome life's challenges.

Hello and welcome. I am the founder and owner of Healing The Mind & Spirit, (HMS) a group practice that offers hope and healing through mental health therapy. We help our clients find freedom from depression and anxiety, renew their relationships, improve their self-esteem, revitalize intimacy with their significant other, and create a plan to move their life forward in a positive direction. We offer couples, individual, and family counseling. Our specialty populations include people from the entertainment industry, Christians, and people in need of empowerment. Let us help you find or fine-tune your voice and your sense of self.

Childcare is provided during your session. Bring the kids to spend time at our Kid's Room, while you get treatment from our therapists. All of our therapists hold a minimum of a master's degree in a psychology-related field that qualifies them with the Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS) to provide counseling/therapy in California. Sessions are available in-person as well as online via telehealth. We are accepting new clients now and can get you an appointment within 2-3 days. Open every day apart from Sundays, from 10:30 AM to late evening.

Center for Integrated Care focuses on one's psychological, social-emotional, and mental well being. Our services are centered around client's needs, where change occurs naturally, genuinely. We provide individual, couples, family, and group therapy. We welcome all those who are needing a lift from their problems and strenuous life situations. We are a team of Licensed Clinicians and Associate MFT And ASW with specialty in working with children and adults. If you just need short term therapy to get over a pressing issue or long term therapy to process and maintain mental health well being we are here for you.

Choosing a therapist is a difficult process. In the time when you may feel most vulnerable, you are inviting a complete stranger in to discuss very personal information. I believe safety and non-judgment are among the most important aspects of the therapeutic environment. I create a place for clients to ventilate emotions and build coping skills that make daily life more meaningful. Even though it may be difficult to initiate the process of therapy, having someone assist you in making sense of internal confusion can result in insight and clarity that is often very difficult to achieve alone.

The Healing Place is intended to help clients achieve their fullest potential in their relationship to self and others. I have been successful at helping people feel better and relate more effectively. I can help you discover your most authentic self by getting to the core issues and healing the underlying pain. I am especially skilled in helping families build healthy and rewarding relationships even in the midst of crisis and hopelessness. My dedication is to help you flourish in your life. In therapy, facing your "real" self can lead to a deeper understanding allowing you to become more whole.

If you are feeling stuck due to a traumatic past that you are struggling to deal with and you need an empathetic, knowledgeable, experienced professional to help you navigate through the broken and dysregulated pieces then email me today. Trauma can show up in so many different ways from depression, anxiety, self-harming behaviors, dysfunctional relationships, and so much more. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional it is my goal to not only assist you in the process of healing but to help you establish coping skills to manage distress and maintain appropriate self-care so that you can obtain peace and emotional well being.

With compassion & understanding borne of my own journey through debilitating life experiences, I bring a genuine sense of calling to my task as a psychotherapist. It is profoundly meaningful to me to witness hope as it rises in my clients, not despite the trials they face, but rather, because of them. My goal in working with you would be to bring a compassionate approach to facilitating healing as well as to provide you with clinically effective tools to assist you along the path toward achieving wellness. Whatever your goals for treatment, our time collaborating together will be tailored to your specific needs and concerns.

Are you feeling disconnected, stressed, stuck, scared, or angry? Are you repeating relationships, patterns, or situations and wishing you could break the cycle? Maybe life feels more frustrating or stressful than usual. Sometimes we aren't sure what causes our distress, but we know we're not reaching our potential for health, happiness, or success. And even if we know what the issue is, change can feel impossible. That's where our team of qualified professionals can help. Our job isn't to judge you or your choices, it's to help you understand the root causes of your issues and work together to create a custom plan for change.

Do you struggle with anxiety or depression that interferes with you having a satisfying life? Do you feel like you're constantly trying to catch up with your daily demands or that you are failing in your roles as a wife, mother, or in your career? Do you long for reaching a place of happiness and peace as you enjoy your accomplishments with your children and spouse? Now more than ever women are feeling challenged and tired by the demands of work, parenting, marriage, experiencing a loss or a big change in their lives, difficult relationships, or pain from past traumatic experiences.

Life experiences, transitions, and relationships provide an opportunity to be challenged and to grow. Are you tired of feeling stressed, worried, moody or depressed? Maybe you are feeling stuck or frustrated in your current circumstances or having a hard time communicating with others in your life. Is your teen acting out or engaging in problematic behaviors? These obstacles can get in the way of enjoying life. Making the decision to enter therapy requires courage. We bring hope, a belief in your strengths, and confidence that you can create positive change in your life.

Waitlist for in person session. Working through difficult times makes us, and our relationships, stronger. Making the decision to begin therapy isn't always easy, but sometimes it's just what you need to get your life back on track. Despite the stereotype of a therapist being someone who will, "tell you what to do," my role is to listen and help you toward hearing your own answers. It can offer you insight and perspective so you can achieve what you are striving for in your life. Together, we can explore what is getting in the way of you living a happier life.

No matter what you are facing, you are worthy and there is hope. You are here because you believe change is possible, or may even know change is necessary, for your life to be more whole and authentic. But change can seem daunting, even scary. Whether you're experiencing emotions like anxiety or depression, relational chaos, or traumatic circumstances that seem to overwhelm your thoughts and life, therapy is a safe space to process these issues. I approach our time together with compassion and care, with the goal of seeing life through your eyes, so that the change is solely yours. You are not alone and all things are possible.

Thank you for letting me be a part of your journey! I am ONLY taking patients who are young/new moms or moms with depression. This focus specializing in helping moms (especially new moms) adjust to motherhood and the stressors that this transition brings is a passion of mine and I have been doing a lot of training to groups about this. Most of us LOVE our babies, but find the transition into parenthood difficult. I can help with Postpartum Adjustment/depression/anxiety/PTSD, Birth Trauma and just feeling "NORMAL" again. I love helping families!
