Relational Psychotherapy therapists in August, California CA
Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
I approach therapy from a humanistic and spiritual perspective meaning I believe you are a whole and complete person who is struggling with some aspect of their life. If you need a non-judgmental champion on your side, Dr. Chad is here for you. I firmly believe that your challenges are growth opportunities, not punishments. The struggles are opportunities to bring compassion into your life. One of my therapy gifts is helping you see the lessons or blessings (or both) you have faced while empowering you to live up to your greatness while nurturing your capacity for compassionate self-love. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you better understand yourself.

Erica McArn
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am a licensed psychologist who is passionate about igniting purpose and passion in others, helping clients learn and grow on their journey through life, loss, and personal transition/change. I have a diverse background, both personally and professionally, that, I believe, allows me to understand and connect with people from all walks of life.
I utilize an eclectic approach that allows me to individualize my work with clients and develop treatment plans specific to the needs of each person that are goal-oriented and fits each individual lifestyle. In addition, my practice integrates a holistic and humanistic perspective focused on a model of HOPES (Honoring, Overcoming, Persevering, Empowering, Self).

Ana Velouise, Perinatal Mental Health Specialist
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Why did no one warn you about how hard the transition to parenthood was going to be? You often feel that you’re not doing a “good enough” job and wonder why other parents seem to have it all figured out. You may not have had the pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience that you wanted. You love your baby more than anything but you don’t always love being a parent.
I’ve been there. Therapy is a resource that helped me feel less alone as I navigated the immense changes that came with becoming a parent. I’m a queer, neurodivergent mother of twins and my lived experience with perinatal loss, birth trauma, NICU parenting, being postpartum in 2020, and perinatal mental health disorders drew me to this work.

Vanessa Ffrench
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (103346), Certified Yoga & Meditation Instructor
I am a somatic psychotherapist and approach therapy holistically, focusing on the mind-body-spirit. My background and training is in early childhood development, mindfulness and meditation practices, and somatic psychology. I believe in processing and healing past wounds, while also working with the body and what is coming up in the present moment using body-oriented techniques and mindfulness. I also use ancient yogic practices and approach healing considering your subtle body energy system if you are interested (e.g. chakra health, breathing techniques, movement, etc).
