Relationship Issues Therapists in Lake Murray, San Diego, CA

Are you experiencing feeling stressed, alone, or just confused? Are you unsure about how you even got to this place? Are you feeling uncertain about the way the world around you is going? Would you like a secure and confidential way to work out what is going on in your world? Welcome! I am an African-American, cis-gender, woman, mother, and former military spouse from a multicultural household. I have witnessed the stressors that outside issues have on families, couples, and individuals. My approach to therapy is Collaborative, Client-Centered, and Narrative.

Hello, my name is Kim Swain. I strive to be a culturally competent person and clinician. I believe the first step to making progress in therapy, is making sure that we develop a collaborative approach. I gear treatment toward emphasizing your strengths and solutions, beginning with assessing readiness and motivation. My therapy approach is rooted in Family Systems, Narrative and Structural therapies with various interventions to ensure care is tailored to you. To foster a greater self-awareness, self-esteem, growth, independence and the development of new skills that can be practiced between therapy sessions, as well as lifelong.

Not currently accepting new clients. At some point in our lives we can feel lost, sad, and/or anxious and could use an objective person to help us through. I work collaboratively to assist clients in gaining the coping and communication skills to improve their overall well-being and relationships. I offer both long-term and short-term evidence based treatment which is based off of a clients trauma history, wants, and needs. I believe in helping clients gain the insight and skills to be able to reach the goals we set at the onset of therapy, and to end confidently and able to handle life's stressors in a healthier way.

The relationship roller coaster ride is a ride none of us enjoy. If your relationship is filled with tension, distress, or conflict it can leave you feeling alone, overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed. In fact, there are few things in life more painful than an important relationship that is stuck in a negative pattern of disconnection. You need someone who can help you find your way from the pain of disconnection to the safety and comfort of security, closeness, and connection. That person needs to understand you and be warm, compassionate, and relational.

I specialize in sport psychology and mental performance. I believe that in life we are always performing and sport is just one aspect. My work is process-oriented and easily accessible. The intention is that you can leave the office and apply what we processed into your daily life. Together we work to unfold the unhealthy and many times, the unconscious patterns, that inhibit you from reaching your goals and aspirations. We also reflect on your strengths. You may want to feel a certain way or you may want to actually attain tangible things in your life. When we access your authentic self everything is available to you.

Is your teenager acting differently or struggling with mood changes? Is the whole family being negatively affected by their behavior? I have 20 years of experience helping teens, couples and families learn how to manage and communicate their emotions effectively and respectfully. Reaching out for support is a sign of strength, not weakness. You don’t have to be “messed up” or in total crisis to seek help from a therapist....

Welcome! It is wonderful that you are here- taking the first step towards making positive change. Seeking help can be an overwhelming process; remember that you do not have to do it alone. I will do my best to offer guidance, support, and dedicated focus on developing an approach tailored to meet your current needs. While we will certainly address current challenges or problems, it will be just as important to identify strengths and assets already residing within. We’ll look at how to utilize coping skills, or learn new ones, in order to build resiliency.

You feel like your mind is in a constant state of overwhelm between your responsibilities to yourself, your job, your loved ones. The competing roles, running to-do list, expectations keep you up at night, making the days feel like survival mode: Will I ever feel normal again? When will I ever be able to catch up? Will I ever be able to reset and find calm? You feel it in your bones that you need a break to re-evaluate, but you can’t ever seem to make the time. Maybe you hold yourself to expectations that no longer fit your life, or maybe they never did. It's time to freedom in who you are now.

Hi, it's Joseph. Let’s talk. We’ll work together until that unsolvable problem is history, until that overwhelming pain is bearable, until the impossible future is simply your future. You’ve always been strong, resourceful, and intuitive. I’m just going to help clear away the junk you’re trapped beneath so you can actually feel that way: false beliefs that make life seem harder than it really is; old stories about yourself that have nothing to do with who you are now; distractions that keep you from deciding what is most meaningful to you; power imbalances that take away good things that are rightfully yours. This stuff has to go.
