Spirituality Therapists in Valley Center, CA

I am Rev. Dr. Monika Maria Grace and I welcome you to my page! In our first session together, I also welcome you to my real or virtual office and I invite you to make it your own safe space. I explain that therapy is a process, a relationship, and an adventure. It's also a gift of discovery and renewal that only you can give to yourself, especially in our challenging days. In this process, my role is to listen, to support, to challenge, to guide, and to celebrate you as you are becoming more courageous to face the parts of yourself you were avoiding, more accepting of yourself and of others, and fully present in your life.

Do you feel stuck, unmotivated, anxious, or depressed? My training and experience have helped me understand these concerns as invitations toward the discovery of meaning, purpose, and ultimately transformation of the problem if we are willing to engage with it. My practice is focused on understanding: the importance of "standing" under the weight of the problem (tension or trauma), to determine what it means. We will work together to actualize the power of your potential. The aim is to fulfill your destiny instead of resisting it.

Sitting at the cross roads of life not knowing which direction to take or perhaps cemented in the very spot where we stand, seems to be where many find themselves today. With the weight of past traumas, present stress and frustrations, and future worries of what is to come sitting upon our shoulders, we attempt to carry even more weight from our families and friends. At some point our shoulders begin to give amongst the burden that cannot be carried alone. We find ourselves in distress feeling hopeless, helpless and broken.

2024 Accepting NEW patients. Is your mental health suffering? Are you not yourself and withdrawing from others? Feeling stuck and finding it difficult to manage your day to day responsibilities? I work with adults and children struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, boundaries and self-esteem issues. As an LMFT with over 17 years experience, I meet my clients where they are at, utilizing a strength based approach. I believe we all have it within ourselves to heal and live the life we were meant to live. I provide therapy in English and Spanish and understand the challenges of being part of a multi-cultural family.

My goal, as a therapist, is to help clients navigate life's challenges and transitions. The tapestries of interpersonal relationships, grief, trauma, and recovery from addictions are woven with accepting ourselves, others, and change.

Hello, I'm Servando ( AKA: El Guapo ) if you actually got that, then you know I have a sense of humor. ;-) "Do you struggle with communication, anger or abandonment and often feel powerless, alone, taken advantage of, unheard, or misunderstood?" I teach individuals to empower themselves through exploring self-efficacy by learning the barriers to communication, self-worth and exploring wholesome ways to manage communicate and adapt to personal struggles. Our feelings are ours and only ours, so why do we blame other when we experience an unpleasant feeling? (You pissed me off!)

Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others around you? Do you feel unsure how to express your true self or live the life you want? As a Gender, Sex, and Relationship Diversity knowledgable therapist, I offer a supportive environment to address issues in life that may be holding you back.

Therapy can help uncover the barriers that are in the way and learn skills and techniques for how to work with yourself and collaborate with life so that you feel like you are living as opposed to just surviving.

Clients that have experienced trauma, substance abuse and family issues. Struggling with depression and anxiety.

People who struggle with Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, and many other emotionally painful conditions just wish they had someone to talk to. Multiple traumas often occur over time, often within an atmosphere of attachment disordered relationships, neglect, and/or abandonment. You may have experienced child abuse, sexual abuse, grief, and loss. You may have grown up with family addiction/ partner addiction. At this point in your life you want answers to why you end up in the same relationships, and you need assurance things can change.

Hello, my name is Mary Speight, LMFT 51793. I've 20+ years of experience in the field of behavioral and mental health. I am a Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional (CCFP) certified in Integrated Mental Health. I believe I'm eclectic in my work with clients. Therapy isn't one size fits all. We all may have similar experiences, but how we behave and react may not always be the same.

Have you been feeling anxious, angry, hurt, sad? It's not just one thing that happened in your life. It's the build up of many things, relationships and events, that have left you feeling this way. You feel as if your mind runs away with you and find it so hard to gain control of it and your reactions. It's just not worth the fight anymore. But before you give up and surrender to your thoughts, there is still hope.
