Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in San Marcos, CA

Hi! I'm Dr. Charla and I am a licensed therapist (est. 2014) specializing in identity and authentic self-expression. Holding a Doctorate in Counseling Psychology, I integrate clinical expertise with holistic certifications in EMDR and Hypnotherapy. My eclectic approach meets clients at the intersection of traditional psychology and alternative healing.

• I believe therapy is one of the greatest gifts that we can give to ourselves. It is an opportunity to explore and learn about the mysteries of our inner self. When I am working with a client both of us discover a vast new world that waits to unfold. I studied at Pacifica Graduate Institute, a graduate school dedicated to discovering the inner contents of the self and the secrets of the archetypes of our humanity. I believe in working with my clients face to face, together, by sharing a journey in order to learn about the hardships of today while gaining knowledge about past and present experiences. I believe in and encourage my client’s strength and ability to solve their own problems and become the healers of their own wounds. I work as a guide and as a fellow traveler in your journey toward self discovery. With every step we take toward discovery, I work hand in hand with my clients, letting them lead in finding the sources of their suffering and their capability to heal them. Treatment Modalities: Person Centered Therapy, Post Jungian, Family Systems, Trauma Theory, Sex Therapy, and working within the Feminine Principle. I work with LGBTQ community and with all kind of diversity. At Eye Of The Storm counseling I specialize with Adolescents, Adults, Relationships, Individuation, Immigration, Life Changes, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Sexual Issues, Personal Growth and Development, Life Style issues, and Court referrals.

Hi! I'm Alison and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Starting therapy can be nerve racking and even scary to some. I work with children and adults navigating through life changes, anxiety, depression and burnout. I've been a therapist for 10 years and in the last year I shifted my focus to working with parents struggling with burnout and anxiety. I find that these are the most common stressors affecting people in their day to day tasks and relationships. Regardless of what brings you here, I'd like for us to connect and help you reach your goals.
