Psychotherapy for individuals who feel stuck…

 

You shut down, freak out, lash out, or pull away when something goes wrong in your relationships.

You desperately want to have better relationships, but your anger, anxiety, or low self-esteem gets in the way.

 
 
 

You want direction, clarity, and relief

Sometimes you feel out of control, and other times tiptoeing and strategizing in your interactions.

Why can’t you be your authentic self without sabotaging your relationships?

Feelings of rejection, loneliness, self-doubt, and misunderstandings keep you stuck in the same old patterns. And you can’t stop overthinking and beating yourself up about it all.

You want relief from all this and get back in control of your life.

Welcome, I’m Angela, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I practice with a therapy modality called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make effective change towards a meaningful life.

  • Learn how to manage your negative self-talk so you can lead your life with your values, not your worries, insecurities, and stressors.

  • Communicate effectively even when you’re stressed, overwhelmed or upset.

  • Make decisions about your life and relationships with confidence and ditch the overthinking!

I know you have questions, concerns, and hesitations.

  • It’s the framework of how I help clients with their goals. It’s part therapy and part coaching in how I apply it in my practice.

    This therapy that helps individuals stop struggling with difficult thoughts and feelings, and instead accept them, while committing to actions that improve their lives. It is skills-based and behavioral, meaning you start doing things right away and there are activities and reflections in between sessions to implement what you learn.

    The goal in ACT therapy is psychological flexibility which helps:

    • being proactive in dealing with your problems rather than reactive

    • improving resiliency

    • keeps you striving towards goals despite setbacks

    • adapting your behaviors to align with personal values, even during stressful times

    • I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California (LMFT #97770)

    • I have been working as a therapist for 12 years and have been licensed for 9 years.

    • I have my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and my Bachelor of Arts of Psychology

    • I am trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

  • My model of therapy requires weekly therapy, 50-minute sessions once a week. Once we decide it’s a good fit for your goals (first 1-2 sessions are on trial basis), then we set aside a weekly consistent time for both of us to reserve to do the work together.

    I offer both in-person therapy in Santa Rosa, CA in my office off of Mendocino or video/phone therapy.

    While every person’s therapy duration is unique, my former clients who report they have fully met their therapy goals, on average, typically do so in about 25 sessions, or approximately a little under 6 months of weekly therapy.
