Getting to know Jeffrey Steer
I have been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 2007 and have been providing therapy since 2000. I earned my Master’s in Psychology from Chapman University. Over the years, I have worked with diverse populations, including children, families, couples, and adults. My experience spans various settings such as community agencies, county mental health, schools, and two residential treatment facilities for children and adolescents.
What should a new client know about working with you?
During your first session, I will provide a warm environment in order to help me learn what brings a client to therapy and meet the client where they are at. I also learn about a client's strengths in order to build on those and use them to help the client find solutions for what is challenging for them in their lives. I also use a solution-focused treatment approach in order to help clients determine their goals for therapy and find the tools that will be most helpful to them between sessions. I view the client as the expert on their lives since they know themselves best.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I start with an intake session to gather relevant information about the client, including what brings them to therapy, a brief health history, and brief family history. I then work with the client to help them set one or two goals for therapy that they would like to meet and will give them a strategy they can easily begin using before the next session relevant to what brings them to therapy. After the intake session, ongoing sessions will focus on helping the client work towards their therapy goals with the assistance of treatment strategies they will be able to learn during session and easily practice in between sessions.

- Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
- Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront
