Welcome

 

Welcome to the virtual office of Tom Stein, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

The purpose of this site is to learn about psychotherapy as well as how I work as a therapist.

Psychotherapy involves developing a unique relationship with a therapist who can listen and respond from a place of curiousity, authenticity, and skillfulness. The relationship’s sole purpose is to promote mental, emotional, and social well-being.  In my work with adults, couples, or children, I strive to establish trust, and create a base from which clients can discover and nurture their strengths as they move towards the healthier lives they seek.

Although I will work with all clients, I specialize in issues pertaining to women in transition (especially those involved in breakups), teens and those who have experienced trauma in their lives--either past or recent.  I am trained in EMDR and Lifespan Integration, techniques that have proven to be particularly useful in treating PTSD.  In addition, because of changes in communications technology, I am also able to do therapy through electronic means - for instance, SKYPE - for clients throughout the State of California.

Please take your time to explore the site and discover more about who I am as a psychotherapist and whether I might be a good match for your needs.
