Mark Mautner, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Mark!

I take a humanistic person-centered approach to working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, and difficult life transitions.

My focus

I work with clients who struggle with depression and anxiety, relationship problems, addiction, difficult life transitions, and grief.

My approach

I work collaboratively with clients to develop a treatment plan and am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, trauma approaches including EMDR, as well as psychodynamic and depth modalities.

My communication style

I strive to co-create with clients an honest and non-judgmental space to explore interpersonal struggles. My style is calm, direct, and client-centered. My goal in therapy is for clients to feel confident speaking about anything real to their lives.

My journey to mental healthcare

Like many, I entered the profession through a wound from a tragic family loss. I have always been someone who cared and looked out for others in my life. I spent many years in non-clinical helping roles professionally and have a deep reverence for therapeutic work.

My goals for you

Goal setting begins with reflectively listening to clients non-judgmentally, and co-creating reachable objectives that begin with what the client is looking to work on.

Our first session

During our first session, we will get to know each other, discuss the benefits and risks of therapy, including confidentiality, and begin to co-create treatment objectives.
