How do you work with clients with depression?

Hey there! I'm Lamar, but you can call me KaMu. I'm proudly an MFT Associate at the Multicultural Therapy Academy, working under the guidance of Dr. Pamela Reeves. After finishing my bachelor's degree in health administration and management, I gained valuable experience as an MRI technologist with a neuroscience research team specializing in Functional MRI at the University of Southern California Medical Center. This hands-on involvement intensified my enthusiasm for Psychology, which led me to pursue a master's degree. At the University of Capella, I completed my master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy, focusing on Counselling Psychology. Currently, I'm enrolled in a Doctoral program at Quantum University, where I'm diving into the profound art of holistic healing for the mind, body, and spirit. This includes studying various modalities like hypnosis, NLP, and Neurofeedback, among others. I'm a passionate Psychologist with comprehensive expertise in providing innovative treatment to help individuals navigate psychological and emotional obstacles. I'm committed to offering unwavering support throughout the entire process of diagnosing, evaluating, and implementing treatment. My approach integrates trauma-informed therapy, solution-focused therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe in delving into the depths of trauma's history, unveiling hidden patterns, and embarking on a journey of emotional restoration. By doing so, we can rediscover the joy of life, nurture relationships, and revive our spiritual and emotional well-being. Let's work together to make that happen!

Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of a betrayal, the challenges of infertility, or the complexities of parenting, these struggles can feel isolating and deeply personal.

Hi! I am a Masters-Level Mental Health Counselor and I have been in the mental health field since 2020. Before working in outpatient, I specialized in eating disorders in a clinic setting. I have also became familiar with PTSD, anxiety, depression, OCD, and personality disorders. My treatment model is centered around CBT, DBT, and REBT. This means that I focus on the interaction of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and place emphasis on irrational thought processes. 

Do you feel stuck in your relationship? Disconnected? I believe the potential for happiness and fulfillment in both one's relationship with themselves and others is universal. Through Emotionally Focused Therapy I have been able to help couples/individuals move beyond negative patterns that often leave one stuck which often leads to anger, resentment and self-criticism. Have you experienced a traumatic event and are looking to heal? EMDR is a therapy designed to resolve unprocessed traumatic memories. EMDR enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. Therapeutic modalities like EFT and EMDR can be a wonderful therapeutic approach for healing. I am committed to creating a safe, respectful and non-judgmental environment. I look forward to working with you to help break debilitating cycles, whether you are seeking support for marital conflict, grief, trauma, anxiety. I am committed to you and your growth. TRAINED: Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EMDR Certified Therapist - Member of EMDRIA - EMDR International Association.

I am a clinical social worker with over 15 years experience working with a range of clients from children to adults. I have worked with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, ADHD, behavioral challenges, and life transitions. I have provided therapy in hospitals, schools, and clinics. I acknowledge the courage it requires to embark on a therapeutic journey. When you take that step, my aim is to provide you with a secure and empowering environment where we can collaborate.

Like many therapist profiles, this page could list my degrees and credentials, provide a vague description of what clients I work with, and be distant but warm; however, that is not how I work with clients or how I am in the world. I want this page to help you decide if we’ll work well together, not just list the things I’ve done. What you probably want to know is 1) do I know what I’m doing and 2) are we a good fit in working together. I have been working in the mental health field, specifically with eating disorders, since 2014 in a variety of capacities including inpatient, residential, and crisis stabilization programs. I am passionate about eating disorder recovery and collaborating with patients to find balance in their lives. I am body-positive and Health at Every Size (HAES) aligned. I have experience in working with families, couples, and individuals in addition to facilitating group therapy. My primary focus lies in helping to support clients and their loved ones in understanding and moving forward in the path to recovery through individual and family therapy. I have earned the distinction of being a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS) by the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals, and have been an officeholder for the Heartland chapter of iaedp since 2019 and remained committed to pursuing ongoing education within the field. There are so many people who hesitate to come to therapy or to move forward in eating disorder recovery due to having been previously unsuccessful with a “one size fits all” approach. I work with you to figure it out. I’m not a smile-and-nod, sit in silence type of therapist. I'll call you out on your BS, but I can do that in a way where we can both laugh. I'm not afraid to talk about anything you need to talk about. Intrusive thoughts? Feeling like you’re the only person to feel this way? You’d be surprised to find that you’re not alone. Therapy will provide a safe space to be yourself and a supportive environment to help meet you where you’re at and work towards creating lasting change in your life.
