Wendy Raskey, LCP — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Wendy!

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist in CA and ID. I provide evidence-based care for adults facing mental health struggles with an approach that is collaborative and holistic. I support individuals who may be dealing with trauma, other stressors, or life transitions, and a range of complex psychological concerns.

My focus

I have a long history of working with adults who struggle with trauma, depression, anxiety, panic, grief and loss, and relational issues.

My approach

I embrace a holistic approach to therapy incorporating psychodynamic (attachment-based), somatic (mind-body connection), and cognitive/behavioral therapy. Together, these processes can promote increased awareness of the whole self to better achieve mental stability.

My communication style

My style is one that is open, honest, kind, and gentle. I enjoy finding creative ways to discuss issues.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began as a dancer. I found that the field of psychology mixed with movement was intriguing, so I pursued dance movement therapy and later clinical psychology with a concentration in somatic psychology. Working with individuals through a creative lens has always been my passion.

My goals for you

Goal setting is developed in partnership, between the client and therapist.

Our first session

The first session entails a discussion of client's needs, issues, and expectations in therapy. As well, the client provides a bit of bio/psycho/social history for a better understanding by the therapist of the client.
