Find Peace, Joy, Connection, and Genuine Healing in Santa Clarita Therapy With Me, Jessica Garner, LCSW
You long to feel better. You desperately need to find a way out of feeling stressed, overstimulated, worried, anxious, or sad.
In all reality, you likely experience a combination of all of the above. A lot of people do in today’s fast-paced, social-media-driven culture. Even if something feels “off” and you can’t quite put your finger on it, you still deserve clarity.
Living your best life begins with understanding what is holding you back.
As an experienced counselor, therapist, and CBIT-certified practitioner, I can help you get to the bottom of what is causing your anxiety, depression, trauma, or tic disorder. And once we figure that out, we’ll work together to uncover and harness your ability to truly heal.
How I Can Help Through In-Person and Online Therapy in California
Because your healing journey is uniquely personal to you, the path you take with me in therapy will be tailored specifically to you. The primary focus of my practice is to empower you to live genuinely and experience joy and connection.
Thriving as your authentic self requires a safe, supportive environment and an experienced, compassionate, and nonjudgmental guide. Together, we will build a strong, stable, and trustworthy therapeutic relationship so that when you come to therapy with me in person or online, you’ll feel more like you’re talking with a friend than a therapist.
I’ve worked with the underserved and overlooked communities in and around Los Angeles for years and helped individuals from all genders, races, and backgrounds heal using a holistic, action-oriented approach.
Through my personal and professional experience, I’ve honed my inherent ability to connect with my clients and provide interventions leading to hope and healing. Whether you need collaborative, goal-focused therapy for anxiety, depression, or trauma, or you’re seeking CBIT therapy for tics, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
(Plus, I work nights and weekends – and that is extraordinarily rare to find in therapists.)
My Specialties
Whatever you’re going through is deeply connected within your mind and body. That’s why I take a holistic, integrated approach to help you find genuine, lasting healing and balance.
Our therapy sessions will be collaborative, comfortable, safe, and non-judgmental, no matter what you’re facing.
When you can’t seem to shake the doldrums, feel like anxiety is controlling your every day, or don’t feel like you can escape intrusive thoughts, you need more than just talk therapy. Of course, talking through your challenges has its place in therapy for anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. But what you really need to do is to dig deep to determine the source of your struggles.
Once we build a strong foundation of trust, we’ll dive into the work together. As a culturally sensitive therapist, I deeply respect and honor all cultural, generational, and personal experiences. You can feel confident knowing that your unique perspective matters. I’ll equip you with the tools and skills to confidently strengthen your resilience and navigate life’s challenges.
The idea of trauma therapy may feel daunting to you. I genuinely understand that. However, when it comes to trauma therapy with me, you can rest assured knowing that my priority is to create a safe and supportive space where you can achieve growth and healing.
I’ll help you understand how your trauma affects your nervous system using proven body-centered approaches, such as the Trauma Resilience Model (TRM) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Together, we’ll build your resiliency using skills to bring your nervous system back into balance and help you heal each part of yourself to restore your whole health.
CBIT therapy for tics is the only treatment program proven to reduce and manage tics in individuals with Tourette Syndrome or other tic disorders. This short-term approach also helps you or your child learn to identify when tics will happen, identify triggers, and replace tics with less noticeable actions.
As a medication-free and effective treatment, CBIT therapy for tics can equip you or your child with the tools you need to manage tics and improve your quality of life.
