Therapists in Sacramento, CA

Greetings! My name is Penelope Sargent and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

Hi my name is Colleen Krinard, LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker psychotherapist. My approach to therapy is one of partnering with you on your learning wellness journey. My goal is to meet you in your learning style and support you in making meaning out of what is unfolding in your life, to learn and practice skills and tools together, and assist you to form a deeper connection with yourself. My primary focus is working with adult women's issues including anxiety, depression, empowerment, codependency and trauma, with a sensitivity for how these are playing out in your everyday life experiences.

I focus on healing the wounds that have created internal negative "stories" about ourselves and the world to help people reconnect with their original creative, powerful, loving selves. Clients learn stress reduction and self-nurturing techniques to support themselves on the journey through processing trauma and throughout their lives. As clients heal from the past, they then learn new ways to communicate and interact effectively with others and to create the lives they wish to live.
