HOW WE HELP

We created California Psychology with the understanding that seeking therapy often begins in moments of vulnerability, transition, or quiet overwhelm. When life feels painful or uncertain, finding the right therapist should feel grounding and intentional — never rushed or impersonal. As a boutique practice, we offer a refined, high-touch experience from your very first connection.

By intentionally limiting our caseload, we provide truly personalized, attentive care. Our work is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and relationship-centered, grounded in the belief that you are far more than a diagnosis or a set of symptoms. Whether you are new to therapy, returning after time away, or seeking deeper healing, our clinicians meet you with presence, discretion, clinical expertise, and genuine warmth. Here, therapy is tailored to support meaningful, lasting growth.

OUR THERAPEUTIC APPROACH

  • Attachment-Based Therapy is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on how early relationships with caregivers shape our emotional bonds, self-worth, and ways of relating to others. This approach helps clients recognize patterns of attachment—such as anxious, avoidant, or secure—and how these influence current relationships and emotional well-being. Through a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship, clients learn to heal past wounds, develop secure attachment, and build healthier, more fulfilling connections with themselves and others.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based therapy that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. By examining how thoughts, feelings, and actions are interconnected, CBT supports practical strategies for managing stress, anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges, fostering lasting change and resilience.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based therapy that combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness and acceptance strategies. It helps clients regulate emotions, reduce self-destructive behaviors, improve relationships, and build coping skills for stress, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation, fostering balance and resilience in daily life.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy designed to help people process and heal from traumatic experiences. By using guided eye movements or other bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing emotional intensity and promoting adaptive healing and resilience.

  • Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) combines the therapeutic use of ketamine with guided psychotherapy to support healing from depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health challenges. Under the guidance of a trained clinician, KAP facilitates deep emotional processing, shifts in perspective, and enhanced self-awareness, promoting lasting psychological growth and resilience.

  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy integrates mindfulness practices with psychotherapy to help clients become more aware of their thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations. By cultivating present-moment awareness and non-judgmental acceptance, this approach reduces stress, anxiety, and rumination, while fostering emotional regulation, resilience, and a deeper sense of well-being.

  • Somatic-Based Therapy focuses on the connection between the body and mind, helping clients process trauma, tension, and stress stored in the body. Through body awareness, sensations, movement, breathwork, and mindfulness this approach supports emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and the restoration of a sense of safety and embodied presence.

  • Depth psychology is a therapeutic approach that explores the unconscious mind and the hidden layers of your inner life that shape your patterns, relationships, and emotional responses. Through dreamwork, reflective dialogue, and attuned exploration of your psyche, it illuminates meaning, fosters integration, and supports lasting transformation—helping you cultivate clarity, resilience, and a more authentic, empowered self.

  • Boutique care with depth and clarity—providing a private, high-touch experience where personalized attention, intentional support, and exceptional quality are prioritized over quantity.

  • Transform habitual patterns and cultivate lasting change—through mindfulness, somatic therapy, CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches, we guide clients beyond old patterns toward sustainable growth and personal empowerment

  • Mindful, trauma-informed, and highly skilled clinicians—our team brings presence, expertise, and a deep understanding of how trauma shapes thoughts, emotions, and behavior to every session.
