Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in 94596

I specialize in working with couples who are planning to have children, postpartum parents, and families to help promote healing and growth. Having and raising children is one of the hardest and longest-term projects anyone will ever take on. I want to help parents engage in this process with self-awareness, intention, and love to help improve their own well-being, as well as the child or children's. I believe wellness starts in the home and each member of a family unit can help contribute to positive connections through taking time to work on themselves and then care for others.

We are a group of clinicians committed to providing skilled, supportive therapy and coaching to our clients. Our therapists use a strength-based approach to building relationships with clients that provide the trust needed to make big change. We specialize in seeing women in transitional stages of life, including but not limited to; pre-and postpartum struggles, anxiety, eating disorders, addictive behaviors, depression, role confusion, relationship stress, parenting dynamics and trauma. We love to see couples, children and individual adults ready to move past barriers and experience more joy in relationships and life.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 15 years of experience. I have worked in many different environments including hospitals, drug and alcohol treatment, residential treatment, and in community mental health.  I am now committed to guiding folks in a more intimate private practice setting either in office or via telehealth. If you're dealing with specific mental health challenges or just looking to gain more insight into what is holding you back, my goal is to explore your path to emotional well being. I hope to get to know you!

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.

I work best with adults who hard on themselves, especially parents and people experiencing chronic pain. Do you often feel like you "should" be doing more or better? Do you feel guilty taking time for yourself? Do you have mixed feelings about parenthood or your relationship? Learning how to treat ourselves with compassion, accepting our negative feelings as well as the positive ones, and balancing caretaking for others with caring for ourselves is something many of us have to learn as adults. These are areas I help my clients with daily. You don't need to struggle with these issues alone.

I am a Licensed MFT with extensive experience providing individual psychotherapy to teens and adults. I work with clients presenting with a wide range of challenges including severe and persistent mental health challenges, depression, anxiety, trauma, chronic suicidality, grief, substance use, relational and life transition challenges. I work with people living with HIV and Transgender, Nonbinary and Gender expansive individuals. I also work with women in all stages of the life span and I am currently working towards a specialization in prenatal and perinatal mental health.

I am a strength-based therapist with a warm, nonjudgmental and direct approach. Championing evidence based practices such as ACT, cognitive behavioral and interpersonal therapy, I utilize these modalities to help you evaluate and work through maladaptive thought patterns and behaviors that are keeping you "stuck" in your present situation. I will work collaboratively with you to create a culturally sensitive and uniquely tailored treatment plan. Holding a strong belief that therapeutic relationship is a privilege, I approach all my clients with curiosity, compassion and empathy.

I love working with teens, families, and adults, especially those navigating the challenges of parenthood and the identity shifts that change brings. I am passionate about supporting moms through the challenges of pregnancy and postpartum and working with anyone who is navigating depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

You can feel better, reconnect with others and create the life & relationships you desire. One of the most caring actions you can make for yourself and for your loved ones is seeking help. www.CaliforniaTherapy.Care

Hello! I'm a postdoctoral level therapist with experience working with a variety of clients who have different backgrounds, interests, and concerns. I work with individuals, both adults and adolescents, in a safe, understanding, accepting, non-judgmental environment. My intent is to focus on you as an individual, honor your experience, and genuinely hear your truth. I foster an inclusive environment for everyone, honoring your sexuality and gender.

I am a licensed psychologist providing compassionate evidenced-based psychotherapy to adults in the Bay Area. I specialize in helping people with difficulties like depression, anxiety, work stress, relationship problems, life transitions including pregnancy and parenthood, health problems and pain conditions. Through my work I aim to help people improve their well-being, self-fulfillment, health and relationships. I enjoy my work as a therapist immensely and feel honored to be given the opportunity to work with people during some of the more challenging times of their lives.

Hi, my name is Alexa and I am so glad you're here seeking support. I am a mom of two boys, licensed psychotherapist, and coffee enthusiast. I work with clients to build practical coping skills, build insight by examining previous experiences and relationships, and parent in a way that feels authentic and empowering. Together we will work to help equip you with the necessary tools to help you identify and overcome your challenges. Whether you're struggling with pregnancy, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, or motherhood, you are not alone in this journey, it is my honor to support you during this complex time in your life.

Becoming a parent is a unique and transformative experience. From the moment of conception through the journey of parenting there is an array of unknown rewards, challenges and experiences. At times parents have no idea how they will feel or react to these challenges and realize that they need help and support through their own journey as parents. This journey might include understanding the way people perceive and relate to their own internal child as well. Research proves the way we were parented, the environment in which we developed, and the situations around us influence the way we feel and behave as parents and human beings.

We all have strategies for dealing with challenges day-to-day. But over time, many strategies can fall short or even backfire. We may find ourselves withdrawing and avoiding certain aspects of our lives, or overextending and pushing ourselves to the point of exhaustion. This can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, and irritable and can also take a toll on our relationships and physical health. One of my goals as a therapist is to help you identify changes you can make, both big and small, and tap into your motivation to follow-through on those changes.

I offer a dynamic and caring approach to therapy that actively engages adolescents, young adults and adults in uncovering barriers to enjoying a full and balanced life. I provide an environment where clients can learn to manage stress, sadness, loneliness and disappointment in healthy ways, while making concrete behavioral changes and positive choices. My clients have experienced positive changes that have led to increased happiness and fulfillment with their lives and goals. Relationships with others are improved, and family life becomes more functional and harmonious.

Life is full challenges, why navigate these alone? I have helped many individuals and families by using a collaborative and holistic approach to therapy in order to create an environment that feels safe, nurturing and supportive. As your therapist, we will work together to identity patterns and behaviors that no longer serve a purpose in your life and replace them with new ways of coping. I practice from a strengths-based, solution focused approach in order to empower you to make the changes necessary to feel more fulfilled and at peace with your life.

Connecting with people in positive, satisfying ways is essential for our emotional health. I make a priority of creating a genuine and supportive relational experience in the therapy setting so that my clients can comfortably process and heal what hurts, while also learning useful skills to manage emotions and behaviors in healthier, more effective ways. I have tools that help my clients untangle any resistance to making changes and to feel more motivated, encouraged and valued. I am very experienced at treating anxiety/panic, OCD, relational struggles, grief, trauma, life transitions and issues special to women and new parents.

We practice from an integrated approach to wellness. We combine psychology with hypnotherapy, dreamwork and spirituality. The goal is to tap into the wisdom and healing powers that reside just below conscious awareness. The emergence of self-compassion, self-love and forgiveness builds the foundation that supports transformational healing. We trust each person is the expert in their own life and each person holds the answer they are seeking. Our role is to help those with whom we work to uncover the wisdom and resources they possess.

Do you find yourself repeatedly reacting to recurring emotional triggers; trapped in repetitive negative cycles in your relationships, or unable to figure out how to move forward to a more positive, secure bond with your partner? My warmth, humor and interactive style creates trust and safety to encourage and support you. Clients express that they feel relief from symptoms of stress, such a anxiety or depression, and experience feeling more emotional flexibility and balance.
