Getting to know Teresa Trout

Hi there, I'm Teresa! Hi, my name is Teresa (she/her/hers). I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Expressive Arts Therapist. I earned my Master's in Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies. I work with clients statewide in California via telehealth. When I'm not working, I like to spend time with family, play board games, be in nature, go on random adventures, and watch a good cult or crime documentary. My approach I primarily use Expressive Arts (EXA) Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Attachment Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. We will vacillate between working in the here-and-now and exploring past experiences-especially with caregivers and significant individuals. We will work to separate you as an individual from your challenges, focusing on externalizing issues rather than internalizing them. We will resource your own skills to support you through difficult times. My focus I offer affirmative, knowledgeable, trauma-informed services for individuals in the LGBTQ+, BDSM/Kink, and Non-Traditional Relationship communities. Clients seek support with Depression & Anxiety, Gender Identity, Inner Child Healing & Childhood Trauma, Parenting Support, Polyamory/CNM, Relationship Challenges, and Sexuality. My communication style I co-create a supportive, safe therapy space for your self-exploration and healing. My approach is collaborative and rooted in the belief that you are the expert of you. Personal growth and healing can be hard work but also playful and (dare I say) fun. Healing happens when you feel truly heard and seen, can share your stories, explore struggles, and be met with curiosity, compassion, and love. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because I found my own healing through therapy. I have worked with many therapists over the past 22 years and have had great ones as well as bad ones.
