There are so many amazing places to become a therapist in California. Here is a bit about why I chose to be a Therapist in Modesto, CA. There was been an increase in awareness about the impact of mental health in someone's wellbeing. With this new awareness has also open doors to how you can receive help. Let me share more about why become a Therapist in Modesto CA. 

Becoming a Therapist in Modesto

Yes, though it may sound cliché, being able to support my community and help you experience your world. As a therapist, it helped increase community access to quality mental health services. Services that focus on your specific needs. This influenced opening a private practice in Modesto CA. Access to a space that is inviting and warm. A place that allows you and myself to be comfortable and at ease in sharing and exploring their world. A space that allows you show up as you are because, at times, too much time spent pretending.  This pretending can be painful.

Looking back, my decision to become a therapist became clear during my teen years. Noticing more about the world and about how there are so many struggles. Even in a world full of people, you can feel out of place, overwhelmed, disconnected, and lost. You can often spend time getting by or surviving, feeling unfulfilled, often asking the questions, "Where do I belong? What am I doing with my life? What do I want to do with my life?" The pretending and getting by often can show up in life as anxiety, overwhelm, grief, resentment, disconnection, and much more.

It is a reward to practice a meaningful career. To be part of someone’s journey of understanding, healing, and growth. Creating an opportunity to impact the life of one person and through that the lives of others.

If you are experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, grief, resentment, or disconnection, know you are not alone. You can feel different. Different can mean so many things: peace, calm, contentment, happiness, and much more. Essentially, you can find a different way of experiencing life that aligns with who you are.

Why private practice for Counseling in Modesto?

Therapy has many aspects such as ongoing learning, direct client work, and all the behind the scenes tasks. In private practice provides a setting to work one-on-one, with an adult, a couple, or in small groups. Through the years, this therapy format has worked great for my clients as well as this therapist. There is more flexibility, which is wonderful because one size does not fit all.

As a therapist, this approach allows to tailor the approach to meet you at this moment in life. Creating a container that allows each person to be curious and explore their life. This exploration lends itself to discovery – and having that be enough to do the work. We can focus a person’s needs rather than a specific diagnosis or following a specific care plan.
