First, I want to acknowledge you for reaching out for support and for choosing to have the life that you envision and deserve. I am a California licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I have worked in the counseling and therapy field for 25 years. I work with individuals, couples, families and groups. I see myself as more of a Life Coach; meaning that your life is working well and you have not had any suicide attempts, you are not on psychotropic medication. You just may be at a point where you want to improve your life in some way(s). We can explore your possibilities and it can be a fun, joyful adventure into new territory!! :D Right now, I am accepting new clients who want more of a life coaching counselor. Also, I will be on sabbatical from August 8-28th. If you are suicidal, in an abusive relationship and not ready to leave or if you are addicted to a substance or a person or a way of life that is unhealthy and you are not open to leaving that, I am not the right match for you as a therapist. I will work with someone who is empathic and they are with a narcissist but I will not work with a narcissist. I work in private practice with Actors, Musicians, Athletes and many full-time Artists so I understand that world and how authenticity is what gets us true success and lasting joy. I have also been in that area years back. When I was working on my authenticity ( Which is an ongoing, life-long, awesome journey and practice) that is when I created my best work because everyone is searching for that authenticity in life and to relate to that on stage, on film, in music, fine art...etc. I look forward to hearing about you next visit you have for yourself and our incredible world and I am excited to get you going! :) Let's do this! If you are ready for a shift, I know that it can be uncomfortable since going into unfamiliar territory can be uncomfortable yet exciting. :) Are you ready? If so, let's go! :D Either way, I care about all human being and I love what I get to do and who I get to be for you. :) Truly, Gina R-N, LMFT

I am a humanistic psychologist. I use an approach that emphasizes an individual's strengths and skills in a wholistic way to address issues that are distressing and limiting in a client's life. I help clients toward self actualization, the ability to better understand self and others, feel confident and secure in their abilities, understand their motivations and personality, address external stressors, and develop personal insight and a life philosophy that guides their decision making and problem solving. I encourage self awareness and mindfulness to help clients respond consciously to events as they unfold, and to remain true to their worldview and values, while negotiating difficult circumstances in this chaotic world. Many of us did not have parenting that taught us conscious healthy boundaries, understanding of self and others, or secure trusting attachment, but these can be learned and amended through therapy. The term "earned security" is a psychology term that denotes an individual who remediates traumatic events, including: childhood trauma, adult trauma, and relationship trauma, and strengthens their core self concept to include greater self esteem, and a strong comfortable attachment system (post traumatic growth). ​ I know this because my experience in self development included all these, as well as a new understanding of self compassion, self acceptance, patience and a process of differentiation of self that allows for both autonomy and deep caring attachment simultaneously. I offer this knowledge in a non judgmental and wellness based framework. I draw from both professional experience and evidence based scientific research. I love to work with people from all walks of life, all ages, and diverse world views and focus on the human commonalities we share, as well as understanding a client's individual and specific experiences, needs, challenges and goals. I am inclusive, and supportive, patient and caring and passionate about helping others.
