Counseling and Therapy
Perhaps you have reached a point in your life in which something has to change; the sadness, anger, confusion or depression have become too great a burden to carry. Perhaps you have been a victim of profound brokenness and long for healing and a brighter future. Or perhaps you desperately want to be a good parent, but it seems like everything you have tried hasn't worked. If this is you, I would be honored to come alongside you and offer my assistance. It takes wisdom to recognize when a problem exists and courage to do something about it. As your therapist, you honor me by sharing your life with me. I will bring the best that I know from my study and experience. I will actively listen to your concerns, offer real solutions and provide relevant feedback. I will always have compassion and empathy for you in all that we do. I value you as a person in need of respect and care and will always treat you with highest dignity.

Helping Hurting Hearts
Are you feeling confused? Hurt? Frustrated? Are you not sure what to do and would like some clarification? There are answers to your questions. In a supportive and caring environment, I will listen to your heart and help you discover the answers you are looking for. A lot of times it is helpful to have an outside person from your family and friends to hear what is going on to help you during this time. Sometimes you just need someone to listen to 'get' you to help you see things in your life. My desire is to help your hurting heart not hurt so much. Call or email, I am not able to receive messages here.

Orange, CA 92869
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist
As a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist I strive to adapt each session to the needs of each individual... their own specific needs and desired outcomes. Trained in many different modalities, e.g. Cognitive Behavior, Bowen, Jung, etc. , I draw from theorists that I feel will accomplish the task of what is needed for the individual or couple. It seems rare to me that use of only one theory is the only way to achieve results. I have been a Registered Nurse for over twenty years and feel that the medical knowledge I have achieved compliments the Psychological knowledge that I have gained through training and through my practice. Life experiences play such an important role in our dealing with others. To know and understand what others haved endured or are currently enduring is very empowering. I know what it feels like to experience problems with children, relationships, families, careers...and therefore can share with others the trials they are experiencing. The good thing is that with proper counseling, empathy and caring, things do work out...what ever the result are. Time and working through those areas that hinder our wel-lbeing with a counselor who will give guidance and support are important ways to overcome problems.

Do you have a loved one who is struggling with an addiction?
Do you have a hard time saying NO -- and sticking to it?
Do you feel constantly taken advantage of, or taken for granted, as if nothing you do is ever good enough? Dealing with a loved one's addiction is a very difficult thing. You may be feeling stuck in your current situation, and wondering if things will always be the way it is now. Or you may be feeling completely over-extended, taking care of everything (and everyone) both at work and at home, that you just don’t have any time or energy left to take care of yourself. You may even be feeling completely isolated and alone, because no one seems to understand what you are going through, and there is no one in your life that you feel comfortable talking to about it. You don't have to go through another day struggling with this on your own. Call me TODAY at and let's see how I can help! It can really take a toll on you when you love someone who is struggling with an addiction. You do not have to go through this alone. I can help you look at the "big picture" of what you really want for your life -- and for your loved ones. I do this by first helping you to increase your awareness of the circumstances of your current life situation, in order to understand how things got to be this way. Together, we will then explore several possible options that you may not have considered before, which can ultimately empower you to make the positive changes that you have been looking for. Call me today and let’s see what we can do together to make this happen! Wishing you all the best, Ceci

Child and Adolescent Specialist
I have been in private practice in south Orange County for 26 years. I specialize in children and adolescent therapy using play therapy, individual, and family therapy. I treat depression, anxiety, behavior problems, school problems, ADHD, and stress to name a few. I use a psychodynamic and attachment model that enables me to go beyond treating the symptoms to getting at the root cause of behavior. I firmly believe in working with the parents. If working individually with a child I believe that it is important to have periodic meetings with the parents to coach them in recommended changes, but also with them create a treatment plan and be able to follow up during treatment. My expertise in child development and attachment also enable me to work very effectively with adults who are experiencing depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, relationship problems in marriage, work, parenting, and significant relationships.

Sliding Scale Psychotherapy, Specializing in Mindfulness
Mindfulness increases your ability to cope. It cultivates self-compassion, non-judgment, acceptance, and awareness – all vital to healing. Mindfulness encourages perspective and flexibility, strengthening overall mental health. It allows us to live in the present moment by recognizing thought patterns, letting go of unhealthy attachments, and ultimately getting us in touch with what it means to be more fully alive. Integrative An integrative framework involves mind and body. It examines how your worldview, defense mechanisms, physical and spiritual health, culture, family roles, and larger social systems are interconnected. Personality, past experiences, and beliefs are also looked at to understand how well-being is created and maintained. Healing involves exploring and being curious about these various aspects of your life and how they interact. Therapy facilitates this journey toward health, wholeness, and peace. Wellness Focused Therapy My therapeutic approach is wellness based, stemming from Positive Psychology, which focuses on strengths and values that empower the individual. This allows for innate and organic healing processes to take place. I believe this approach, together with Mindfulness and an Integrative framework, promote insight, shift, growth and balance in a most honoring and profound way. Therapy entails venturing inward, and nurturing internal wisdom to bring about this transformation

Counseling and Psychotherapy for Children, Teens and Parents
Hello. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), specializing in the treatment of children, adolescents, and their families who struggle with a variety of psychological, behavioral, academic, and relational problems. I also provide families with support for parenting, School and Special Education Consulting, Divorce, Co-Parenting and ADHD. I know that, as parents, you know your child(ren) better than anyone else, including pediatricians and clergy. You are the experts and from personal experience, I have learned that parents need to trust their instincts about their children. One of the goals in my work is to help children and teenagers realize that they can find solutions to their problems, enhance their relationships, build self-confidence, and develop a healthy sense of who they are. I have observed that when children and adolescents begin to feel good about themselves and when they realize they have options instead of limitations, their behavior mood, social, and academic functioning improve - they are happier and more resilient. I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral, Family Systems and eclectic interventions with adolescents, and with pre-adolescents, play therapy, to help younger clients identify, explore, and resolve their behavioral and emotional struggles. Providing child and adolescent therapy, I have over 15 years of clinical experience with all aspects of psychological, developmental, and behavioral difficulties, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, anger, trauma, PTSD, loss, defiance, impulse control problems, ADHD, learning issues, substance use, social thinking issues and the autistic spectrum. An important part of working with children and adolescents includes working with their parents (or guardians). I provide parents with support and constructive ideas that can strengthen their effectiveness, enhance bonding between each other, and restore their sense of hope and satisfaction in the family.

I see a variety of clients from ages 5 to 75. This includes people who have various life adjustment problems as well as those with personality and mood disorders. I treat children with play therapy for behavioral and other problems. Couples may require conjoint therapy for marital difficulties which may include other family members. And, of course, individual psychotherapy may be useful. I treat people who have suffered traumas caused by sexual, physical and emotional abuse which could result in depression, anxiety, social phobias, etc. I am able to assist people in overcoming self-defeating behavior which cause an inability to achieve goals in life. I use various types of therapy depending on the individual and types of problems he or she may be having. One very effective therapy technique is the utilization of inner voice dialogue with ways to conquer negative self-concepts. This may include bibleotherapy and worksheets depending on an individual's preference. Many first time patients are surprised to find that "talk therapy" can be so tension relieving.

Life is very different without an Instagram filter. We live in a fast-paced world. The expectation is for us to have everything together: the perfect relationship, job, home, amazing friends, great body, high self-esteem, and 100+ likes on every single social media post. The reality is, we are all humans with real emotions, feelings, ups, and downs. What is your life really like? Are you happy with the job you have? The friends you have? The relationships you are in? More importantly, Are you happy with WHO YOU ARE TODAY, HOW YOU ARE LIVING YOUR LIFE? I firmly believe it is possible to be happy with the life you’re living. It is crucial to take a moment to embrace your struggles, challenge yourself, work through difficult situations and find true happiness through addressing the challenges in your life. I am able to help you by providing you a safe environment where you can express yourself without feeling judged or criticized. I utilize different modalities especially EMDR therapy (in-person only) to help people overcome their struggles and live their best life.

Helping Teens, Tweens, Young Adults and Their Families
Find Balance in an Unbalanced World
Your happy outgoing child has been replaced by a sullen, withdrawn, miserably unhappy teen. Or worse, your love, care, concern and soft questions are answered with arguments, disrespect, screaming, tears. Worry and fear for your teen is controlling your entire life. You've tried everything - setting boundaries, making demands, hurling threats. They're met with more withdrawal, or out of control partying, accusations, yelling, screaming, crying, regret and exhaustion. What if you could learn how to successfully reconnect with your teen? What if hurts could be healed? No matter the cause - addiction, alcohol abuse, drugs abuse, binging, defiant behavior, anxiety, depression, suicide attempts, suicide of a friend or family member... I know it can be uncomfortable, embarrassing, even frightening, to discuss your very personal and private family situation with a stranger. I do not judge or criticize. Not you, your actions, or your family. I specialize in healing the underlying pain, and bringing families together. I raised 3 step-children and have 25+ years in this profession. Come experience a different approach to teen counseling and family conflict. I would be honored to help. Healing starts today. Ask for Coach Mickey.

Isn't It Time to Become Your Best Self?
Heal, Grow, Thrive
Are you yearning for a more peaceful, joyous, loving and balanced life, but don't know how to get it? Are you plagued with persistent worries, stress, sadness, or anger? Are you having troubles with your relationships or find yourself stuck in old patterns? Or maybe you want to work through a troubled relationship or event in your past that you just can't get over? You have probably found that the obvious solutions to your "problems" don't always work, and some of those "solutions" end up becoming problems themselves. Each journey is unique, so my therapeutic methods are tailored to your specific needs. I rely on certain therapies, such as EMDR, mindfulness-based and cognitive therapies, that studies have shown are particularly effective in treating trauma, phobias, anxiety, depression, and many more problems individuals or couples may face. I have been honored to work with some amazing clients who have turned their lives around, worked through intense traumas, dissolved anxieties, found excitement for life and mended relationships. I also have expertise with attorneys, entrepreneurs, LGBTQ individuals and their families, and people with Mormon backgrounds.

Make Life Happen!
I believe healing takes place on the levels of emotional, mental, physical and spiritual. I work from a more holistic approach to change behaviors of negative thinking, while at the same time working through deep feelings of emotional pain to help make changes in one's soul and physical body pain. I am here to help clients work through their problems so that they can have better lives and better relationships with others. I have worked with clients who have addictions, anxiety and depression. I have worked with clients who have gone through domestic violence and other violent crimes against them. I specialize in working with children who have been abused and neglected by their parents or someone that they have trusted in their lives. I believe psychotherapy can help everyone, but it sometimes is a long and difficult journey that requires commitment, time and patience. I accept low fees and work on a sliding scale to adjust to one's financial situation. If you are serious about making changes in your life, then I am here to help you walk through your journey to get to the other side of healing.
