Sally Press, LPCC — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Sally!

I specialize in compassionate, person-centered therapy with a strengths-based, collaborative approach. I work with adults, children, adolescents, and families to address their unique needs. I provide practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, personality disorders, trauma, relationship challenges, and behavioral issues.

My focus

I work with adults, children, and adolescents who are suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, depression, trauma, PTSD, problematic behavior, and interpersonal and relationship issues.

My approach

I offer a warm and supportive environment where you can explore your emotions, improve communication, and strengthen relationships. My approach is tailored to your specific needs, ensuring that you feel heard and understood every step of the way.

My communication style

I want you to feel very comfortable, relaxed, and heard when in session with me.

My journey to mental healthcare

After becoming a mother, I chose to pursue a rewarding career that offers an opportunity to positively affect the lives of people, which provides meaning and purpose.

My goals for you

My approach to counseling is grounded in evidence-based interventions, ensuring that each client receives the most appropriate, individualized, and effective care. I have a deep understanding of the developmental needs of at-risk children and adolescents.

Our first session

You can expect a warm, welcoming environment. I will take a brief history, assessing your reasons for attending and discovering what you want to work on. We will focus on building rapport.
