Getting to know Craig Rothhammer
I am a highly experienced practitioner with 45 years of clinical experience, willing to work with more complex cases. I have a calm demeanor (California beach style) but communicate directly, with transparency and tact. My goal is to assist you in developing the skills and insights to approach a vast array of situations with a higher degree of success. I seek to provide the means to manage immediate issues, but also techniques to become more independent in facing the inevitable future challenges of life. I have a toolkit of therapeutic approaches to find what best works for you, as well as extensive experience administering large behavioral health programs, enabling me to support the challenges of dealing with complex systems. I can listen attentively, educate you, and at times assist you in accessing supportive resources you may not have known were available or that you qualify for, to develop a holistic and comprehensive plan for continued wellness.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from San Diego State University and am trained psychodynamically, which helps develop understanding of unconscious and subconscious motivations impacting your self-perceptions and those you have of the people in your daily life. This can be very helpful in understanding the triggers that arise out of past traumas and other experiences, for which there may be awareness. I am well versed in short-term modalities that help you deal with the here and now, such as solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and crisis stabilization. I have extensive experience working with victims of trauma, whether from childhood, more current events in your life, or extraordinary sentinel events such as shootings, fires, personal attacks, sudden losses, and natural disasters.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Clients can expect to be heard and respected. You are a complex person with many facets and I will rely on you to educate me on how any or all of these factors have meaning or influence on you. I am a good listener but find redirection necessary in some instances.. You can expect my full attention and the expectation we both work hard together as efficiently and effectively as possible, to help you problem solve, develop better insight, and improve your subjective and objective quality of life. We will both agree to provide a minimum of 24-hour notice for any schedule changes. I will address you as formally or informally as you desire. Please call me Craig.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
