“At any given moment you have the power to say, this is not how I want my story to end”
I’m a licensed psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience assisting others achieving relief from addiction, co-dependency, complex trauma, anxiety and depression.
I specialize in the treatment of individuals, couples and families to assist with post traumatic stress disorder, relationship issues, grief and loss and substance abuse.
I provide a safe and nurturing environment that ensures the provision of high quality personalized care.
I provide EMDR for those suffering from trauma. In addition, I have extensive training and experience in providing CBT , IFS therapy and together we will work to identify and break unhelpful patterns and find new ways to grow and thrive as individuals.
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who provides compassionate, evidence-based care for adults. My approach is clinical, trauma-informed, and whole-person; I look beyond symptoms alone and consider the many parts of life that shape mental health. I believe care should feel collaborative, supportive, and not overwhelming. My goal is to help you feel understood while creating a treatment plan that fits your life, values, and goals. Whether you are seeking medication management, in-office IV or IM ketamine treatment, or support through a difficult season, I want you to feel safe, respected, and empowered.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am here to listen, guide, and support you in overcoming life’s challenges. I have been in the mental health field for eight years, working with clients of different socioeconomic status address their concerns with anxiety, depression, grief, and communication.
Hello,
I am Dr. Jaeger and I welcome you to my practice. I look forward to sitting with you, hearing your story, and developing a plan to help you with your concerns and needs.
I believe healing begins with feeling genuinely understood, supported, and accepted. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that lasting change happens when people can safely explore their experiences without judgment.
Growing up in a military family and spending decades serving as a flight medic, deputy sheriff, and firefighter taught me how deeply connection, trust, and stability shape emotional well-being, especially in environments where vulnerability can feel risky or costly. Those experiences continue to influence the way I work with clients today, creating a space where people can show up authentically and feel supported as they navigate life's challenges.
I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the emotional demands of everyday life. Together, we identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical tools for navigating challenges, and build on the strengths you already possess.
I value authenticity, curiosity, and clear communication, and I strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. For clients who desire it, I also offer faith-informed counseling that thoughtfully integrates spiritual beliefs into the therapeutic process, recognizing that faith can be an important source of meaning, resilience, and healing.
Whether you are navigating a difficult season, working through longstanding concerns, or simply seeking greater clarity and balance, I am committed to helping you build resilience, increase self-understanding, and create meaningful change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Long Beach
Finding addiction therapists in Long Beach starts with understanding the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use concerns, compulsive behaviors, and changes in daily routines or relationships. As you compare therapists, look for training that matches your goals, such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Long Beach has a wide range of therapy options, from in-person offices near downtown, Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and nearby communities to virtual appointments across California. In addiction care, fit matters beyond location. Look for a therapist who describes a clear, non-judgmental approach and has experience with harm reduction, relapse prevention, or substance use counseling. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they talk about addiction care, what kinds of concerns they support, and whether their style matches what you want from sessions.
Therapy in Long Beach can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to compare Long Beach therapists who are accepting new patients, review their specialties and availability, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
