Therapists in Oceanside, CA

I support individuals, adolescents, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship challenges, and life’s many transitions. I also have a special interest in working with women through postpartum anxiety and depression, as well as the emotional and identity changes that can accompany perimenopause and menopause. Many people seek therapy because, although they may appear to have everything together on the outside, they are carrying stress, pain, or emotions that feel difficult to navigate alone. Therapy can provide a space to better understand yourself, explore the experiences that have shaped you, and create meaningful change through curiosity, compassion, and connection. My approach is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in empathy. I believe therapy is most effective when you feel truly seen, understood, and supported. I draw from attachment-based and psychodynamic perspectives while integrating evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR (for Trauma-Focued), somatic therapy, mindfulness, and systems perspectives to support your unique needs. Together, we will explore the experiences, relationships, and patterns that influence how you see yourself, respond to challenges, and connect with others. This work can help you develop greater self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and create healthier, more fulfilling relationships with yourself and those around you. When working with couples, I incorporate Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and attachment-based approaches to help partners strengthen their connection, improve communication, navigate conflict, and rebuild trust and intimacy. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable showing up as your authentic self. Whether you are navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, we will work together at a pace that feels right for you to better understand yourself, move through challenges, and create a life that feels more connected and fulfilling. Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy spending time with family, being outdoors, traveling, staying active, and making time for rest and reflection. These moments help me stay grounded and bring the same presence, warmth, and authenticity into my work with clients.

You can be successful, self-aware, and highly capable; and still feel emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected, burnt out, or stuck repeating patterns that no longer serve you. Many of the clients I work with are the person others rely on: driven, independent, logical, and high-functioning externally, while internally struggling to process pressure, identity, relationships, emotions, or the deeper question of whether their life actually feels aligned. I specialize in men’s mental health, high performers, athletes, professionals, and individuals navigating emotional regulation, identity development, life transitions, burnout, and relationship challenges. My approach integrates Brainspotting, attachment-focused therapy, CBT, existential exploration, and experiential processing to help clients move beyond intellectual understanding and develop greater emotional awareness, accountability, autonomy, and alignment. As an adoptee and minority therapist with a background in corporate and high-performance environments, I bring both lived experience and clinical insight into conversations surrounding identity, resilience, belonging, achievement, and adaptation. Therapy with me is collaborative, direct, and grounded in honesty and human connection. I believe insight is important, but meaningful change also requires ownership, intentionality, and the willingness to actively engage in the life you want to create.

Hi! I’m Elise, an Associate Clinical Social Worker with five years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked across a variety of treatment settings, including residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient care. I work with Individuals, couples, adolescents and children. I utilize a trauma-informed and eclectic approach, blending evidence-based therapies such as CBT, ACT, and DBT, while also drawing from Compassion-Focused Therapy to help cultivate your compassionate self and guide you toward treating yourself with the kindness you deserve. For trauma-focused work I pull from DBT and CPT to help my clients gain relief from the hold that trauma may have on them. I also have specialized training in OCD and Eating disorders and am a HAES aligned Clinician. In my work with couples, I utilize techniques derived from the Gottman Method and EFT. I value using humor in therapy and prioritize building strong relationships with my clients so they feel heard, seen, and supported in a nonjudgmental environment. I also find it important to bring attention to the cultural and systemic forces that may shape how you view yourself, helping to ‘zoom out’ and gain a broader understanding of your experiences. Outside of work, I enjoy hanging out with my cat, hiking, spending time at the beach, and diving into my latest library find. I believe that bringing curiosity, balance, and compassion into life is just as important as the therapeutic work, and I aim to model that approach with the clients I work with.
