Shohreh Schmuecker, MA, LMFT California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Somatic Psychotherapist
Welcome
In these uncertain times, it's important to prioritize your mental health and well-being. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just need someone to talk to, therapy provides a safe, supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions.
Maybe you are you navigating a life transition, dealing with loss, or longing to understand yourself on a deeper level. Perhaps anxiety has become overwhelming, making it hard to find balance and peace. If you're asking yourself whether it's time to seek support, it can be an indication that therapy could be a helpful step forward.
Beginning the process of finding a therapist is a courageous step toward self-care. Many people feel alone in their struggles, but therapy is a place where you can truly be heard, without judgment. It's a safe space to explore your feelings, uncover what’s holding you back, and learn how to move forward with more resilience and self-compassion. I am here to support you through that journey with warmth, compassion, and as a guide in turning towards yourself.
Finding the right therapist is an important first step. Below and throughout this site, you will find information about my practice and what sessions could look like. If you are intested in finding out more, you can schedule a free phone consultation to see if I am a good fit for your needs. I look forward to connecting.
