Settled by Native Americans thousands of years ago, Lakeport, California, is surrounded by beauty and coveted natural resources. But like many places there is also a downside to living near Clear Lake, the city is also nestled beside a potential danger, the famous San Andreas Fault.
Lakeport’s unique situation is very similar to many of our own. Even when blessed with so many wonderful things, the fear of possible danger can derail our lives. If you need help getting things back on track, Lakeport mental health professionals have the tools to help you do so. All you have to do is take the initiative to connect.

Aileen Stein
Hello. Welcome to my profile. I am a licensed psychotherapist since 1992 in both New York and California. I believe that building a trusting relationship in a safe environment is the first step toward successful therapy. Psychotherapy is a two-way relationship. One of my strengths is listening. I feel one of the most basic wishes of a client is to be heard. I want to understand the issues the client identifies as well as the unspoken issues that may impede growth. My work begins “where the client is” with no agenda or judgment. As our work together progresses, I will encourage and motivate the client toward reaching goals he or she has set. However, I will employ these methods in a timely manner, when I determine the client is ready to take another step forward. I primarily practice Psychodynamic Psychotherapy . I'm also schooled in Motivational Interviewing and Mindfulness Therapy. I studied at New York University where I received my MSW in 1992. I've treated children, adults and seniors and am passionate about working with all age groups. It's very fulfilling to witness people reach their goals. I have experience in a variety of settings, including hospitals as a medical social worker and counseling centers as a psychotherapist. I've also worked in Intensive Outpatient Programs treating the chronically mentally ill. Among the issues I've explored with clients are depression, anxiety and health issues, as well as domestic violence, PTSD and trauma. I check messages several times per day and will respond within 24 hours. Thank you for reading my profile. I look forward to meeting you.

Dr. David Sequeira
I believe in short term therapy. My goal is to help my patients to deal with the past, focus on the present and be ready to face the future with confidence and hope. I think the important thing is to see that the patient has a strong self esteem which is the foundation of our character. They are taught to give up control over people, places and things and to communicate as "adults" rather than as a "parents" or a "children."
