Hello! My name is Romie and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). Psychology has been my passion since a very young age, and I always knew I would end up in this work. For the past 8+ years I have been extremely active in Community Mental Health. I have mainly worked with individuals experiencing homelessness, incarceration, and/or substance use. I have worked in various settings, but mostly in San Francisco. Working within our communities have made me who I am today as a therapist, and as a person. In just the past few months, I have decided that after over a decade in Community Mental Health, it is time to start my own Private Practice. My training is mostly in complex trauma which has allowed me to learn so many things, and work with so many people. I am a true believer that we are all one crisis away from what we perceive as a really tough spot. All experiences are valid, and we all deserve spaces in our life that are a soft, and supportive places to land. What is therapy like with me? I beat to my own drum, and have a very fluid therapeutic style. First and foremost, I want to get to know you. Our connection is what informs me on how to support you best. Therapy is not a solo journey, it is a collaborative process, and while I have "skills" to support you, your experience is one that needs to be individualized and created for YOU. That is my approach. I utilize various therapeutic orientations, depending on the presenting issues and relationship we build. Some people like a more expressive and creative way to learn about themselves, others enjoy storytelling and narrative work. I almost always like to sprinkle in Gestalt work, and utilize Attachment Theory to ground myself in most therapeutic relationships. I am also a big proponent of Internal Family Systems (IFS), and love the fundamental teachings of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Overall, I would label my style as a Humanistic approach. I am currently in a stage of my career where I want to hone in on all of the amazing work I have done in the field, and continue to polish my own treatment modality that I created while receiving my Masters. It is called Transformative Recovery through Evolutionary Exploration, T.R.E.E. Work for short. This modality is a "smoothie" of various clinical orientations, and it's sole intention is to cultivate self-identity. T.R.E.E. Work was created when I worked with men re-entering into society after 25+ years of incarceration who were struggling with opiate dependence. However, throughout the years T.R.E.E. Work has been so helpful for anyone who has a desire to understand the beauty of their own individuality. It is restorative, and transformative. If I sound like a good fit for you, I can't wait to hear from you! I am here to support your growth in your own beautiful way.
