Teletherapy for California

Life challenges affect everyone, whether you are a stay-at-home parent, working professional, or college student. Most of us are trying to manage our relationships, family, work, and self-care. These competing demands can undoubtedly be stressful. Whether you’re choosing your next career move, navigating a breakup, or deciding to have a baby, therapy can help with any change or transition you are experiencing. My clients often come to me with busy schedules, valuing the benefits of self-exploration and depth-oriented work. They know there's room for personal growth, and they seek a seasoned psychologist ready to support them.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with all that you have to do? Are you struggling to maintain your relationships? Does a balanced life seem like a far fetched dream? As someone who has had to balance multiple cultures, I know what it can feel like to straddle more than one. I want to help you find your balance between the "two worlds" of what is important to you and your family without taking away from who you are. I will work with you to tap into your inner voice, channel your strengths and become the most fulfilling version of yourself. I also provide Immigration evaluations for VAWA, Extreme Hardship, Asylum and U Visa

Have you been struggling with an alcohol or substance use disorder? Are you looking for someone who understands the struggles you are facing based on personal experience?

Please contact me to schedule a free consultation. I'm looking forward to hearing about how I may be of assistance to you.

Hi. I have had the privilege of supporting clients as a psychotherapist for the last 23 years. Whether you are seeking therapy because of an immediate crisis, a life transition, a condition like ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, or simply to understand yourself better, I'm here to help you. I have vast experience with a variety of therapeutic methods, including, psychodynamic, mindfulness, and EFT Tapping. I listen to my clients needs and goals and believe in respectfully collaborating with them to develop a plan for therapy that addresses their goals. If this sounds like a good fit for you, call for a free consultation.

When people enter a time in their life or a situation where they may feel down, worried, overwhelmed, or without many options, I believe therapy can shed light on new paths. Using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help people gain a sense of control by teaching them effective ways to communicate, regulate their emotions, and improve interpersonal relationships to bring about needed change. I work collaboratively with my clients and their families so they can improve their quality of life and thrive.

“Love and anger are such a puzzle!" Mr. Rogers exclaimed, "It’s the people we love the most who can make us feel the gladdest . . . and the maddest! It’s hard for us, as adults, to understand and manage our angry feelings toward parents, spouses, and children, or to keep their anger toward us in perspective. It’s a different kind of anger from the kind we may feel toward strangers because it is so deeply intertwined with caring and attachment." Does this sound familiar? You are not alone.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this bio. I want to first congratulate in you on taking a step of putting yourself first. Taking that first step could have many mixed feelings of excitement, fear and uncertainty. I am here to be a support system for your self growth and development. Many things in life can occur which can hinder our growth. Such events can be disheartening (e.g. divorce, death of a loved one, stress in school or work, etc.) or even events that are normally viewed as positive (e.g. recently getting married, moving in together, getting a new job or promotion, children, etc).

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in California.  I have worked with adults, teens, children and families.  I can support you with your therapy/counseling goals.

Clients that typically find it rewarding to work with me are people who find themselves tired of trying to "fit" themselves into small spaces that do not truly honor the complexity of who they are spiritually, culturally, or with their sexuality. They want to start living more fully and authentically, and want to free themselves of old relationships and limiting beliefs that keep them stuck in old cycles of habit, obligation, and resentment. They make small changes and build insight over time so they can live more fully, authentically, and intentionally as their embodied selves.

Maybe you are coping with a stressful pregnancy? Or grappling with the loss of one? Are you postpartum, feeling unsure, worried, irritable, sad, unable to sleep even when the baby sleeps? Or perhaps, you are further along the parenting continuum, supporting your child through the various developmental stages - toddlerhood, adolescence and beyond. Is that meltdown normal? How do I help my child with difficult friendships? Is my teen's behavior typical? How do I tackle their constant internet use? Or maybe you simply want to empower yourself or your child with healthy emotional tools now to prevent potential issues later.

Hi I'm Archana! Many of my clients are facing anxiety/depression that is in some ways appears manageable to the outsider but in actuality they are struggling internally from day to day. Whether it is trauma, eating disorders, difficult relationships or the high demands of college, work, and/or the journey into and in parenthood, I apply my extensive experience as an eclectic therapist drawing from multiple east and western modalities to provide support to fit my clients needs. My approach is warm, creative, collaborative, but also I take pride in gently challenging you for deep reflection. After all, you are here for change right?

My hope is to create a space for you to feel truly safe and supported while having your multilayered experiences honored, validated, and understood.

Laura M. Van Waardenburg, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. There is a way to feel better and get your life back. The key to making lasting improvements is to have a skilled, trained therapist help guide you with compassion. Depending on your needs I may support you with the use of Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). I come from a humanistic, client-centered, and culturally sensitive approach to all my clients.

We all have moments of feeling isolated and “stuck.” This can stem from the difference between what your life looks like now and how you would like it to be. The stress of this disconnection can seep into all aspects of your world: socially withdrawing or getting into more arguments can lead to depression and relationship conflict. You might feel like what you do is never “good enough,” increasing anxiety. You might hide your stress by focusing on what you can control, particularly after traumatic events. Therapy can help bring back joy and spontaneity into your life, helping you feel more fulfilled and energized.
