My name is Stephanie Giammichele, I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. For my clients’ therapeutic needs, I strive to create a safe and nurturing space in which they can explore and embrace their authentic selves. My client-centered, psychodynamic, humanistic approach to therapy will help individuals along their journey toward embracing the unique strengths and characteristics that makeup who they are and want to be. I believe everyone has a unique set of values that deserve to be explored and expressed.

Need someone to talk to? I'll give you every ounce of my undivided attention and help you conquer your challenges. I'll provide a haven for you to freely express yourself, process your problems and part with your pain. If I have the opportunity to work with you, I won't see you as a diagnosis, I'll see you as a human being, just like me, on a journey through life. My approach is holistic and humanistic and my presence is warm and engaging. My method is practical, results-focused and non-judgmental and has been shaped by a life of travel, athletics, the arts, meditation, and fatherhood. I'm here to help you build the life you want.

Chronic exposure to interpersonal tension can negatively affect health and well-being. Living in a heightened physical state impacts our cognitive abilities, mood, self-esteem, ability to form healthy, stable attachments and is associated with increased risk of developing chronic health conditions. By using somatic and psychophysiological approaches to bring the whole self into the healing process, I support individuals whose lives have been impacted by adversity, chronic stress, and developmental trauma to prevent burn out, decrease anxiety, and build resilience so that they can navigate the ebbs and flows of daily life.

Hi, I'm Katerina Pogosov and welcome to Fire Poppy Therapy! Like the phoenix that rises from the ashes, the fire poppy blooms from it.  Fire poppies are a unique and rare native California plant that are found after there’s been a wildfire.  Their seeds begin to germinate after being exposed to fire and from there bloom into a brilliant fluorescent orange flower.  Our most challenging times don’t have to be the end of something, they can be a catalyst for an inner greatness that we have had dormant and forgotten about.  Let’s work together to use these personal wildfires as an opportunity to not just grow, but thrive and radiate.

Navigating different life transitions is challenging and often a struggle to work through on your own. it can be difficult to manage emotions, relationships, stress, and other mental health concerns. I want to support you in becoming the best version of yourself and provide a safe space for you to explore your identity. I have experience working with a wide range of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism, family conflict, and social issues. I use a culturally sensitive approach to work with those who are struggling with emotional expression and internal motivation.

If you're feeling the weight of life's challenges, experiencing a general sense of dissatisfaction or struggling to find a balance in your life, I'd like to offer my support. Creating a time and space to focus on you is a great first step to increasing satisfaction and happiness. With a holistic based training, I will work with you to see with new perspectives and new possibilities. Everyone's path in life is unique, and together we can explore what is right for you, to improve your connections both with others and with yourself.

"When there's hope, there's a way"... I am an award winning author, international lecturer, consultant, and therapist for individual, couples, families, and children/adolescents, with a warm, non-judgmental and collaborative style. If your life is not as satisfying as it could be, and you have that secret wish things could be different, it may be worth trying to talk about it; sometimes a single meeting can make a difference and reconnect you with inner peace, fresh ideas, or a clearer, empowering direction.

I arrive at the intersection of compassion & collaboration as I respectfully guide my clients to explore new levels of awareness, self-empowerment, flow, & understanding. Working towards cognitive flexibility, wholeness, and healing. Using empathy & unconditional positive regard as a foundation, I may occasionally challenge you to bring forward awareness with a more direct approach. I welcome the motivation or perhaps ambivalence that comes along with seeking treatment. There is no perfection in the layers that define us, just a journey of experiences & lessons that await discovery, growth and honor.

My name is Rick Vasquez, I work in Santa Clara County and I’ve spent the past 12+ years dedicated to serving those who seek guidance, reassurance and self-actualization through therapy. I work with those who feel stuck in life, struggling to summon the energy needed to address obstacles in their life now. I became a therapist because I genuinely love to connect with people and have a deep curiosity for all the experiences that led you to therapy. I also believe in directly addressing the concerns that weigh heaviest in your life so that you can begin to feel a sense of control and relief.

My main goal is to provide a supportive environment for you to identify what obstacles are preventing you from living a more satisfying life. Together, we will explore your resiliency and tools that you already have in your "tool box" to overcome such challenges. I have experience providing support to individuals with depression, anxiety, and anger management issues, trauma and trauma recovery, crisis intervention, processing previous and recent sexual assault or sexual abuse, and adolescent emotional/behavioral issues.

You're not alone in feeling the lasting impacts of stress, abuse, and neglect. Such hardships can often manifest in our lives as depression, anxiety, anger, or low self-esteem. Through therapy, we'll embark on a journey to navigate these difficult emotions, build your confidence, and help you express yourself authentically. If low motivation, worry, or stress has been weighing you down, consider therapy not merely as a solution but as a catalyst for growth.

I trust the healing and growth potential of the therapeutic process and therapist-client relationship. My approach to counseling is relationship-focused, client-centered, and holistic. I am skilled at listening, asking effective questions, and inviting clients to examine their presenting concerns or struggles in a safe and supportive way. I specialize in relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, parenting, the psyche of current and former athletes as well as themes of race and cultural identity.

Do you feel easily overwhelmed by seemingly simple tasks? Have you begun to avoid school/job duties, your relationships, and find it hard to get out of bed? You may feel like you’ve tried everything to self-motivate, yet consistently feel lost and unsure how to help yourself. Through therapy, you can find ways to begin your journey towards better understanding yourself and your strengths that can help you through your most difficult days.

As human beings, we are wired to be resilient; we find ways to adapt to our surroundings, solve problems, and navigate the challenges of daily life. And yet, we all face times when we struggle to access our inner strengths and start to feel unsettled, depleted, or overwhelmed. We may feel as though we are no longer thriving, but merely surviving.

In my practice, I believe that the process of change requires an approach that is tailored to each individual's unique style and needs. I strive to create a collaborative, caring, and supportive atmosphere that will assist you in identifying and changing the thoughts, the behaviors, and the interpersonal styles that are no longer effective for you. I offer confidential, supportive and caring environment free of judgment that will facilitate your journey through difficulties and challenges.

Life is a challenge...even if you don't have any major problems. When you experience one or more additional stressors, such as relationship issues with a child/partner, challenges with blending families, job, financial, health, mood, legal, or ex-partner issues, you might find yourself struggling to keep your sanity at times or realize that you are not living up to your potential. If you wish to feel more full-filled emotionally, physically, mentally, professionally, spiritually and/or in your relationships, I can help you explore which changes could be helpful to reach that goal or what is causing you to stay stuck and in pain.

Are you ready to make positive and lasting changes? You are definitely more than just your problems, but sometimes our problems get so big they are all we can see. When you are in my office you are seen and treated as a whole person with both strengths and struggles. I believe that therapy works best when it happens in the safety of a trusting, supportive, and collaborative relationship. My style can be best described as flexible as my interventions are based on the unique needs of my clients.

I am offering tele-therapy through video and/or phone . I offer supportive / transformative psychotherapy for a variety of issues and concerns including relationship conflicts, grief and loss, stress management, depression, anxiety, trauma, family and marriage relationships, including sexual and intimacy issues in relationship. I assist clients in finding happier and healthier ways of being in their lives, help them to enhance communication skills; promoting positive and lasting change.

As I see it, therapy can have a tremendous influence in a person's life. My style of therapy emphasizes the importance and validation of the client's life experiences. I utilize a compassionate approach where the client can feel comfortable to explore and examine their life in order to better understand patterns that may contribute to problems. I don't subscribe to a cookie cutter approach, rather offer a personalized form of treatment based on your personality and life experiences. I hope to provide the support that will help you find your own of healing.
