Getting to know Sterling Funk

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with 10 years of experience in my field. I earned my Master's in Counseling Psychology from Alliant International University, San Diego, and began my formal training in Mexico City. I have mostly worked with clients in Southern California, addressing a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, internet addictions, and coming-of-age difficulties. I like to have an organic conversation, use humor, and be direct when needed. My combined approaches include cognitive-behavioral, dialectical-behavioral, and solution-focused therapies. I also incorporate cognitive processing techniques when working with trauma and have some training in EMDR. Starting therapy is the first step toward changing the direction of your life. Working toward a goal and finding purpose along the way supports the therapeutic process. I look forward to working with you.
