Trishka Lampkin, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Trishka!

I am a strength-based, directive, solution-focused psychotherapist who believes in a person's innate capacity to heal and be resilient.

My focus

I work with individuals, couples, children, families, and teens navigating childhood trauma, divorce, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, addiction, behavioral disruptions, ADHD, oppositional defiance, court-ordered interventions, and LGBTQ+ issues such as coming out and acceptance.

My approach

I honor the therapeutic process while teaching clients the tools needed to help them grow and thrive. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Attachment Theory, and Narrative Therapy.

My communication style

I believe therapy should be an exchange. I enjoy listening and giving reflective, honest feedback. I also enjoy using humor when appropriate.

My journey to mental healthcare

I come from a family of diverse helpers. Being a helper, advocate, counselor, teacher, and therapist is in the fiber of my being. I enjoy giving people hope and helping them identify their inner strength to live the life they have always wanted.

My goals for you

I prioritize goals based on your comfort level, timeframe, and ability to follow through. We break goals into small tasks and track progress using calendars, journals, or apps. I act as an accountability partner to check your progress, make modifications, and praise you.

Our first session

You can expect to meet with a real, caring, down-to-earth, engaging therapist who is genuinely interested in helping you identify the root of your concerns.
