Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, disconnected, or searching for greater meaning and direction. I work with adults who want to understand themselves more deeply and move toward a life that feels more purposeful and aligned. People often find their way to me while navigating anxiety, depression, grief, major life transitions, or deeper questions about identity and purpose.
As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I offer sessions in both English and Spanish, and I'm committed to creating a space where you feel genuinely respected, understood, and at home.
If you've been managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, or a mood that just won't cooperate, you're probably looking for more than a quick prescription. I'm Sydney, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner in California, and I take time to understand your full picture before making any recommendations.
As a therapist, my goal is to help you live a happier and more fulfilling life. It can be difficult to know if you are on the right path, have healthy relationships, and are satisfied with your life's direction. How do you feel about where you are headed? I can support your self discovery in a compassionate and understanding way. I work towards identifying one's strengths and empowering clients struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, relationship problems and life transitions. I specialize in working with young women, new moms and couples navigating the transitional stages of family life.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Berkeley, CA, and I’ve worked in mental health care since 2012. My background includes community-based work, trauma-informed care, and leadership in training and clinical development. I earned my MSW from NYU and specialize in treating anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. I enjoy working with adults navigating changes - career shifts, identity questions, or simply trying to feel more at home in themselves. Clients often say they feel safe, understood, and more at ease after we talk. I believe therapy works best with a good sense of humor - even in hard sessions, there’s room for relief and laughter.
I have been working in private practice for a few years and before that I worked in non-profits with a variety of individuals and groups. I am the parent of two adult sons and have three grandchildren that I thoroughly enjoy spending time with. I have an educational background in the study of philosophy, spirituality and counseling psychology. I have experience with helping people with histories of trauma, severe mental illness, as well as, symptoms of anxiety and depression. I also have experience and some expertise with clients struggling with substance use.

I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with their strengths while moving toward greater clarity, healing, and emotional balance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Fremont
Finding addiction therapists in Fremont starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and concerns that overlap with anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your goals. Some therapists use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction frameworks, or coordination with medication-assisted care when a prescriber is part of your care team.
Fremont offers both local and virtual therapy options, which can help you find a therapist whose schedule and approach fit your day-to-day life. You may want in-person sessions near home, work, or transit, or virtual appointments that make it easier to stay consistent. Recovery often includes changes over time, so finding a therapist who is nonjudgmental, experienced with addiction care, and clear about session structure can matter. Read therapist bios before booking to see how they describe their approach, the concerns they support, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Fremont can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs after your insurance is checked, and book directly when you’re ready. That makes it easier to find a Fremont therapist who matches your needs, check whether your insurance coverage applies, and book addiction support that fits your schedule.
