Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Murrieta, CA

I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a safe, judgment-free space.

I completed my undergraduate work at UCSB and later earned my master’s degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. The early part of my career was in corporate management roles. My experience in the business sector provides me with special insight into the particular demands of balancing work, life, and family roles.

Hello - I'm Dr. Claire Vines - welcome to my practice! I'm glad you're here. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a doctoral degree in psychology and over 15 years of experience supporting adult individuals, families, and adolescents through some of life's most challenging moments. My practice is entirely virtual, so I can meet you where you are — from the comfort of your own space. I work with clients across the lifespan, from teenagers to older adults, and I offer sessions in English, French, and Spanish.

My background spans a wide range of concerns, including trauma and PTSD, substance use and addiction, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and family dynamics. I approach every client as a whole person — not just a diagnosis — and I bring warmth, curiosity, and genuine care to each session.

My passion is for helping others get unstuck and flourish! The focus of my practice is geared toward helping you develop affirming responses and positive interpretations of what has happened in your life. I will help you have agency and integrity in the midst of a life transition or challenge that has you feeling stuck or out of ways to help yourself.

I believe people carry far more strength, clarity, and resilience than they often realize. My role is to help you understand the emotional patterns and internal narratives that shape your experience, so you can move through life with greater freedom and self‐trust. I’m engaged, attuned, and honest in the room — offering reflection, insight, and steady collaboration as we explore what’s happening beneath the surface. We work at a pace that feels grounded for you, creating space for real change to germinate.

At my core, I’m a mindful, committed, and deeply caring person. Being a therapist is simply one expression of that—I feel called to help people, and this is the work through which I do it.
