Anxiety Therapist in Fair Oaks, California
connie goins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I am a seasoned Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CDAC II) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I utilize evidence-based approaches in my practice and provide a judgement-free, inclusive, and trauma-informed therapeutic space for clients. I truly believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive and find meaning and fulfillment in life. With the right support, we can work to promote your recovery and better understand the core elements upholding addictive patterns and states of unwellness in your life. Teaching people how to love themselves first and to prioritize their mental and physical health is a critical first step to break the cycle of addiction.
Pain, either physical or emotional, can make it unclear what first step you should take to help yourself. Add to that, being a busy parent, overworked employee, or a burdened student, can make recovery seem near impossible! Taking the first step towards creating space for focusing on your needs with a compassionate and dedicated therapist is the right step.
Therapy At Fair Oaks Behavioral Health
In this practice, we use Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Dialectical Behavior (DBT), Mindfulness-Based (MBCT), Motivational Interviewing, and are trauma focused and culturally sensitive.
As an ACT and CBT therapist, I care about providing concrete strategies that work for my clients, including behavioral activation plans, self-care, and new approaches to building meaningful relationships.
If you're looking for a caring and committed therapist to join you on a journey toward personal growth and healing, I'd be privileged to accompany you along the way.
Has depression, anxiety, chronic pain, or substance use tugged you off the course you thought your life would take?
I am passionate about working with individuals living in addiction, coping with chronic pain conditions, and working through anxiety or depression. My priority is to help you look past all the faults and into a healed future and who you can be. I know it’s painful to be addicted to a substance, you may feel lost and that no one cares. I am here for you.
A testimonial from a Sacramento client:
“Her knowledge and expertise in addiction counseling were evident in every session. She provided me with invaluable insights into the nature of addiction, helping me better understand the underlying causes and triggers of my own addictive behaviors. Through our discussions, She taught me coping mechanisms and strategies to navigate the challenges of recovery and emotional sobriety, and I am forever grateful for the tools she have equipped me with.”
