Finding a Therapist in Dublin, CA

The sunny, warm and bustling town of Dublin, CA has so much to offer - beautiful parks, expanding schools, diverse restaurant options, shopping and entertainment. Living in a suburban town that values a sense of community gives so many opportunities to experience a full life. While all of these things work together to make the east bay area a positive and upbeat area to live in, we all still experience the ups and downs of life. We hope that the ups and downs balance themselves out, but that’s not always the case. Sometimes we feel like the downs won’t stop coming, we can’t move past what happened, or we just don’t understand why we have to keep dealing with it. Sometimes we need support to work through it all, and finding a therapist can be a great resource. Luckily, there are some great therapists in Dublin, CA, and I'll help get you started on how to find one.


Finding a Therapist in Dublin, CA

When life’s downs have us feeling a little too down, it can feel challenging to accept support from anyone, let alone that we could benefit from professional support. Mental health has become a large focus in today’s culture, but many of us have deep beliefs that can keep us stuck and prevent finding support. Maybe you feel like going to therapy means there is something wrong with you, you might get some big, scary diagnosis, or friends and family might think differently of you if they found out. I know how difficult it can be to challenge these thoughts and take the next step. I’m here to help ease that process for you. 


Feeling stuck? Here are some tips to help you move forward in finding a therapist in Dublin, CA. 


Talk with your doctor

It’s always important to rule out any underlying medical issues and to receive medical treatment if needed. Your doctor can be a great starting point to improving your mental health and they can provide you with a list of their referrals for therapists in Dublin, CA.


Check with trusted sources about therapy recommendations 

We all need to lean on community for support, whether it’s your church, school, family or friends. That trusted support network may also be willing to share their experience with therapy and offer personal recommendations for therapists in Dublin, CA. If you have insurance, you can give them a call to learn about what they cover and therapists they work with.


Search for therapists near you 

If you’ve found this blog, then you’re already starting your search! There are lots of therapists in the east bay area, so keep an eye out when reading therapists’ descriptions for characteristics and personalities you generally migrate towards.


The relationship you develop with your therapist is more important than the modality the therapist’s work is based in. This just means that you can trust your gut feeling about the therapist’s personality and what feels right for you.

If you feel like the connection was not right at the end of the call, you’ve given yourself an opportunity to continue exploring what will work best for you, and possibly receive some other referrals.
