One of Jeanette's greatest strengths is her ability to create a safe, supportive space, especially for kids around our son's age. She quickly earned his trust, which is no small feat, and he feels comfortable opening up to her in a way that has truly helped his growth. In addition to her work with our son, Jeanette's parent coaching has been invaluable. She has helped us better understand our child and given us thoughtful, practical guidance on how to approach specific situations. She combines open, insightful discussions with meaningful education, equipping us with tools and perspectives that we continue to use every day. We're very grateful for Jeanette's care, professionalism, and dedication, and would highly recommend her to other families.

I reached out when I felt our son needed someone to talk to about his feelings as he was separated from friends and sports, and overwhelmed with online learning. John was absolutely the best! Since John works with kids, he had a program suited for the pre-teen age group and their emotional needs/communication that didn't feel "childish" to my 10 y/o. After about 2 weeks (1 session a week) , our family dynamic changed for the better. And the next time we saw family, they commented on my son's maturity and communication style being leaps beyond previous encounters. As parents we want to be able to provide everything our kids need, but leaning on a caring outsider like John to provide guidance felt like we invested in our child's well being for life.!

It is hard finding a good therapist and it took us several before finding one that was both a good match/fit and helpful. My only dream wish is that Good Therapy accepted insurance.

I figured talking to someone couldn't hurt, and I wasn't forced to go back if I didn't like it. I saw Kristin for the first time about two years ago, and I really appreciate her non-judgmental, careful way of getting you to open up. I'm not someone who talks about much, really, but this turned out to be the best investment I've made in myself. While it's expensive, it's worth it. Even just going for "maintenance" sessions is helpful. I started off every other week, but that wasn't enough, so I went once, sometimes twice a week for a couple of months. After that, I was able to use the tools she gave me in the real world, and the benefits really stick. You matter to people in this world, so you have to matter to yourself too.

In the moments when I felt completely lost, Kristin offered not just guidance, but genuine care and understanding that provided me with the strength to continue moving forward. Kristin didn't just help me survive those hardships, she helped me grow. Her compassion, wisdom, and ability to create a safe space allowed me to rediscover myself and build a life on healing and well-being. I am forever grateful for Kristin's unwavering support and the profound impact she has had on my life. If you are considering therapy, I would highly recommend S.A.G.E. Therapy Center. Having the right therapist at your side makes all the difference and Kristin is truly exceptional.

Brooke is so approachable & creates a comfortable environment. When I come in with the weigh of the world on my shoulders, I come out with such relief. Never did I think I could cry and laugh in the same session. She brings out the best in me. I've been to other therapist and they don't come close to Brooke.

I bring…read moreover 10 years of experience as an expert in disordered eating, particularly with college populations. Other clients I often work with include those struggling with identity issues, LGBTQ concerns, anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, and obsessive compulsive disorder. I consider my approach to be holistic and collaborative, I work with each client to create an individualized treatment plan to best meet their needs. I work with individuals, families, and couples. My approach is based primarily on principles related to CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy) and ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy). Everyone can benefit from exploring ways to make their lives more balanced and whole. I believe that although identifying and either accepting or changing thoughts is an important first step, that the real change happens from discovering ways to make changes in our lives and becoming an active participant in this change.

We just finished the August 2022 Hold Me Tight Workshop led by Dr Diana and it was fabulous:…read moreAmazing in every way! She is a brilliant teacher and presenter that made the material fun, interactive, and very practical. The weekend takes you through identifying your destructive painful cycles of hurting each other; helps build appreciation and gratitude; discovers your raw spots/ triggers and helps you own them; brings deeper emotional connection in the present moments; helps you forgive long turn injuries; gives you language to express your love and affection; and deals briefly and effectively about having a more meaningful and fulfilling sex life. The material is so powerful and intense but cleverly mixes in a lot of humor and variety. Dr Diana's selection of extra video content makes it fun and spicy: from Brent Brown cartoons to "It's not about the Nail." (Look it up) Bonus: There are about 14 couples and about 7 highly trained and effective (EFT/ Emotionally Focused Threrapy) therapists who are available to assist you in your 7 different "dialogues"- times of individual couples' work. We utilized 5 different counselors and the quality of their insights and assistance was through the roof! Maryam, Doug, Dale, and Mariah especially were outstanding in helping get unstuck and getting to the root of our long- established, stubborn, hidden issues that sabotage our happiness. Their expertise was offered so gently without judgment and added so much value to the weekend. I felt like this was what made the workshop soar above and beyond. The setting is remarkable! It is a beautiful location packed with flowers, hummingbirds, amazing trees, private seating nooks for privacy, and such a feeling of peace and security. I cannot recommend this workshop highly enough! We're already planning how to send our friends and kids and everyone we know to experience this peaceful, wonderfully intense, healing encounter in the hills of beautiful San Diego!
