Petaluma Counseling Center

Welcome to The Petaluma Counseling Center

At The Petaluma Counseling Center, we understand that pursuing therapy can be a daunting task. That's why we are committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment where individuals, couples, and families can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Our team of experienced therapists is dedicated to helping clients resolve various challenges, from depression and anxiety to trauma and relationship issues.

Our Approach to Therapy

Our therapists are trained in various approaches to therapy, including Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Experiential Processes like Mindfulness Meditation and EMDR. We believe that each individual's journey is unique, and we strive to tailor our approach to meet the specific needs and goals of each client. We also draw from Eastern psychologies, including Buddhist psychology, yoga, and wisdom practices, to provide a holistic understanding of the human experience.
