Your financial situation may have prohibited or discouraged you from seeking professional counseling. I understand the economic pressures on individuals and families. I have established a personalized fee structure to help make professional counseling affordable again. Individual assessment, personalized treatment planning, mutual evaluation and defined goals create an effective structure to make counseling effective and goal oriented. You are an active participant in the therapy process. Gaining a clear understanding of personal, couple, family, or adolescent issues allows us to work together to determine the best treatment strategy for addressing the challenges you are facing. In some cases the need for outside services are indicated, such as medical evaluation, nutritional counseling, or additional testing. I have a highly trusted network of professionals with whom I work in a treatment team approach. You are an individual, your life is unique, we never treat you in a textbook manner.

As a psychotherapist serving Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, Laguna Beach and Newport Coast I work with couples and individuals who are experiencing relationship problems, depression, anxiety, grief, effects of trauma, and marital issues. Change does not occur easily and yet I continue to be inspired each day by the courage and motivation of the people I work with to challenge patterns that repeatedly cause heartache and turmoil, the effects of trauma from the past, and the problematic issues of daily living. No matter what the issue is, the most important aspect of therapy is developing a comfortable and trusting relationship with your therapist. I work in a way that provides that for each of my patients. So, If you're tired of the way your life is going, or if there are certain aspects that you know need some attention, I'd like to talk with you to see how I may be able to support you through your therapeutic process. I am caring, understanding and easy to talk to, and I provide a safe, comfortable place for you. I specialize in helping people live more fulfilling lives in their family, relationships and worklife.

Are you considering therapy? Are you struggling with depression and/or anxiety? Is your addiction affecting your personal relationships or performance at work? Would you and your partner like to recover from infidelity that has occurred in your relationship? Are you and your teen having trouble getting along? Have you experienced a profound loss and having difficulty with the grief? Are you dealing with infertility? Miscarriage? Or had an infant loss? Have you found yourself living with a chronic medical condition and having trouble feeling motivated or understood? Are you ready to change your life? If you answered yes to any of these questions... Then maybe it is time to seek therapy. Every stage of life presents different challenges and opportunities for growth. Having worked as a licensed psychotherapist with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, I am a resource for people seeking to meet those challenges, resolve difficult problems, and achieve the personal success that results from this process. I truly enjoy helping people obtain peace and happiness in their lives. I offer compassion, empathy, and support as you work to heal and grow.

I have successfully treated individuals, couples and teens for the past 17 years. We have ongoings groups for infidelity (CHEATING) and anxiety groups. I am compassionate, empathic and straight forward in my sessions, which allows my clients to talk freely and feel safe. There is no judgement here.

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.

I'm Marta Hatter, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice in Irvine. My goal is to share in the counseling success of my clients by providing quality professional services to equip them for challenging life events, and to encourage healing and personal growth. Therapy can result in numerous benefits to you, including improving interpersonal relationships and resolution of the specific concerns that led you to seek help.

We are created to function in relationship, where healing takes place. Learn some lessons along the way to make your relationships the best they can be.

Creating connection increases understanding and a way to experience the richness of each other's world. Most people train in what they care about: golf, computer, music, tennis, financial management, etc. Relationships deserve and need energy and commitment to build and deepen understanding, attachment, bonding, managing emotions and developing skills. Investing in your "relationship intelligence" can pay enormous dividends for you, and for all the people your life.

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.

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.

Couples Counseling is a process that begins when you make that first call. I'm Dr. Kerns and I am an Experienced Couples Counselor and the Clinical Director and Intern Supervisor at TCICC. Many times couples come into counseling with me, feeling very frustrated and misunderstood by their partner. This conflict leads to arguing and eventually to thoughts of dissolving the relationship. Miscommunication leads to further issues in relationships that can be smoothed over and sorted out in therapy sessions. Couples counseling can help to change relationship patterns into dynamic interactions where relationships thrive. Sessions are designed to generate an understanding of the viewpoint of the partner. From this understanding we work together to build the relationship by a blending of the strengths and weaknesses of each partner. Success is achieved by a consistent working through of issues, each time with the partners taking more responsibility with the tools that they have learned from previous sessions. I have helped many couples, and I can help you. Dealing with trust, commitment, communication, and intimacy can challenge any relationship. I would like to help you with your concerns today. I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, and have a Doctorate Degree in Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy, from CGI of the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I also work with Individual Clients on short term issues that need a quick resolution. My Therapy is based on the belief that clients' needs are of the utmost importance, and I am committed to meeting those needs. As a result, a high percentage of my business is from repeat customers and referrals. I welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry. In addition, I work on Long-term character development. Skills learned in long term therapy could help you gain considerable satisfaction in how you relate to yourself and others.
