About Us

Helping People Heal and Grow Since 2002

Counseling Solutions helps children, adults, and families work through issues that can be barriers to healthy relationships.

Mission Statement

Counseling Solutions provides individuals and families with the ability to understand and to be understood. Whether you seek therapy to heal from a traumatic experience or to support you during a life transition, caring, qualified therapists help you draw from your own strengths and experience in order to grow as an individual and as a family.

Meet Our Team

Counseling Solutions works hard to train and maintain only the most excellent employees.

Counseling Solutions is supervised by a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who provides counseling, as well as direct supervision to associates and trainees who are working toward earning their license. When people hear the word “associate” or “trainee” they often think of a young and inexperienced person. At Counseling Solutions our associates have all received their Bachelor of Arts or Science and have also completed their Masters in Psychology or a related field. Subsequently, our associates hold a license with the California Board of Behavioral Sciences, which qualifies them to provide counseling under the direct supervision of a qualified licensed clinician.  Counseling Solutions trainees are approaching the end of their graduate program and are completing hours towards their school requirements to graduate and become associates.
