Therapists in Millbrae, CA
Depression can make you feel tired all the time, sad for no obvious reason, and can even cause confusion and memory loss. It can also affect your sleep and eating patterns. Luckily, the City of Millbrae has several extraordinary therapists in the area who are trained in diagnosing and treating depression, among other mental health issues.
Millbrae was named for its rolling hills and beautiful views of the San Francisco Bay, which bring tourists and residents hours of spectacular activities like hiking, fishing, running, swimming, and boating. However, when you have depression or another mental health disorder, it can be difficult to find fun in anything. Consider speaking to a Millbrae area counselor about getting some treatment right away.

Mental Wellness Specialties: Relationship issues
16 years offering treatment
Relationship help is here! Hello, and thank you for stopping by in your search for support. Although I am a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I am practicing as a Relationship Coach on the Betterhelp platform. You will receive the same exact support and expertise from me as a licensed therapist, but since I only currently offer live messaging sessions with no diagnosing or formal treatment planning, on this platform I will solely be practicing as your Relationship Coach. Any questions about this? Don’t hesitate to ask! :) A little bit more about my professional background: I have 16 years of experience as a mental health provider. I am deeply rooted in a psychodynamic, insight-oriented approach, with a focus on relationships. As your coach, we will dive into uncovering subconscious messages and drives from early life and we will explore ways this has impacted your adult life and relationships in particular. Together we’ll develop insight into what’s really going on and figuring out the root causes behind those relationship obstacles or patterns you may wish to change. If this sounds like the type of coaching you would be interested in engaging in, I would be more than happy to join you on your journey!

I am licensed in California with 40 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, & parenting issues. I also have experience working with coping with life changes. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. A little more about my background: I believe in staying current with the latest knowledge of psychology, neurology and biology. I maintain contact with educational institutions so that while obtaining the most current information, it is with a critical eye to the importance of the methodology used to do the research. My work with you will be selected from the best methods available that fits you and your choices. You will become an expert in you. If you are working with your family or a partner, you will develop skills and have access to become comfortable with being a confident, loving parent and or partner with the people you will be with for the rest of your lives: therapy is always available but you will become the expert with your family and husband, wife or partner. One of the most important aspects of our work will be to know how to repair the ruptures of everyday life. My training includes an NIMH Fellowship in Community Mental health where I worked with all ages, backgrounds, orientations. I helped to found the first shelters, creating children support programs. I have learned with Dr. Alicia Lieberman, PhD to help families with challenges. I became a credentialed school counselor so I could help families navigate early identification, IEP's and 504s ensuring children get access to an appropriate education. I spent time learning with Bessel van der Kolk, Stephen Porges, Daniel Siegel, and others who have emphasized the multiple ways we can help the people with whom we are privileged to work. And the importance of helping to develop self compassion and self kindness. Thank you for the privilege of allowing me to be present for your growth.
