Jeffrey Riffle, LCP — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Jeffrey!

I work with individual adults and couples.

My focus

I've worked with men and women from diverse backgrounds. I've had great success treating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, OCD, complex grief, and life transition challenges. I've worked extensively with clients from the entertainment industry, first responders, and veterans.

My approach

I tailor my approach to your needs and wants. We may use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Solution-Focused Therapy to reduce symptoms and bring quick relief. We may use Attachment, Humanistic, Psychodynamic, or Jungian approaches to heal deeper concerns. We may work with Mindfulness or Strength-Based techniques to build healthy habits.

My communication style

I establish a safe, non-judgmental, and inviting space for us to talk. I've been most often called warm and supportive by my clients. I'd love the opportunity to create that type of environment for you, as well.

My journey to mental healthcare

Being a therapist is a second career for me. As my previous career progressed, the work I enjoyed most was talking to people. I found that I have a knack for counseling, and it brings me great joy. I love this work.

My goals for you

Therapy is a partnership. Together, we explore your challenges, goals, and dreams. We build strategies to overcome those challenges, achieve your goals, and attain your dreams. We establish priorities and move forward at a pace that works for you.

Our first session

During our first session, I'll listen to your concerns. I'll ask some questions, but you'll control the pace. As we wind down, I'll offer some directions for us to explore and interventions to assist you. From our first session to our last, it will be a partnership.
