Lesbian Therapists in Bethel Island, CA

When we have an experience that is traumatic or incredibly stressful, our brains have a hard time processing that memory. This can create symptoms such as, anxiety, depression, overwhelming emotions, difficult feelings, self-blame, or relationship problems, to name a few. If given the opportunity, our minds, like our bodies, have the innate ability to heal. The trouble with difficult experiences, however, is that these memories get tangled, leaving us feeling stuck or showing up in other destructive ways in our lives.

The privilege of working with clients is the way each individual strength and barrier is presented in a session. An ideal client is one who is open to the therapeutic process and recognizes the art of healing through time, directed interventions and collaboration. Therapy and the therapist are tools, meant to magnify your process and highlight the route in feeling cared for and attended to with me. I do not require the "perfect" client, I seek the curious wonderment that recognizes the wisdom in their pain but open to the hope in their heart.

Mental health often dictates a person’s overall well-being. Our perception of ourselves, our families, community and world allow us to experience the gift of life in its entirety or we can find ourselves struggling and limiting what life has to offer.

I appreciate the opportunity to connect with people and explore who they are and what they want out of life.

Hi, my name is Brian, and I’m a therapist in California. I truly believe we are all connected in some way. Systemically, there are many ways to intervene and improve the way we relate to our own self, and with others. My philosophy is…when I improve, everyone else around me improves. I am a part of a whole. My own experiences have informed, in part, the way I approach problems and seek solutions, with the goal of simply being happier and performing better. As a psychotherapist, I’ve worked with a wide range of diverse people who have sought help for a variety of different concerns and problems.

If you've never had therapy before, you may be imagining a silent, clinical note-taker who may not truly understand your perspective. I want to be the therapist to change that for you. My interactive, laid-back, upfront style helps my clients feel at ease. Alfred Adler, an early pioneer of psychotherapy says, "Empathy is seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the ears of another and feeling with the heart of another." This best describes my approach to therapy. I have a natural authentic interest in the stories of others and the experiences they bring in.

Happiness in life is dependent upon relationships - the relationship with yourself, your partner, your children - and the other significant, albeit difficult, people in your life.
