Description (2950 characters max)
Hello, my name is Rachel McCarthy and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (#125146) in Atascadero, CA. Most of my experience has been working with survivors of trauma and abuse, but I also commonly work with clients experiencing relationship difficutlies, depression, anxiety, stress, or general life transitions.
I offer support to individuals, couples, and groups, utilizing an integrative approach with a focus on trauma informed care and gestalt practices. I also have completed the level 2 training for Gottman therapy and utilize this approach with couples. While these approaches and theories inform my practice, I am passionate about making sure the therapeutic experience is based on what the client needs and adapt the approach to what is most beneficail to that particular client.
In my practice, I offer both in person and virtual appointments. I have an office in Atascadero, CA which I have found to be a great central location for the Atascadero, Templeton, Paso, Morro Bay, and SLO communities. For the clients in other areas, or whom may have difficulty driving into an office, I am happy to provide the option of meeting virtually.
My website has a lot of wonderful information about myself and my practice. If there is anyone who would like more information, I would be happy to find some time to chat!
I hope to hear from you soon!
