Gail St.James, LMFT, is California's licensed marriage and family therapist. As a Humanistic Therapist, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as the foundation of my practice, as well as Motivational Interviewing, allowing the client to take the lead in their own well-being. Although client history and traumatic events are important, I focus on the present, and moving forward in life, a positive approach to avoid centering on the past.
I work with anyone who appeals to my skills with motivation to heal and move forward in their life! There are no specific conditions, although anxiety is a major foundation of so many disorders that I find treating anxiety, PTSD, and related depressive symptoms is the springboard to reduce symptoms of many other disorders.
I prefer a relaxed atmosphere, where clients feel they are meeting someone who cares deeply that they find respite from their disorders and daily stressors. Clients often tell me this is how they feel, and also often tell me they leave sessions energized with positive motivation and renewed hope!
