Getting to know William Tornquist

My name is Bill Tornquist, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Counseling from California State University, Fullerton. My approach to therapy is to listen carefully to my clients’ needs and provide support, tools, and guidance to encourage healthy thinking and behavior patterns, enhance interpersonal relationships, and help cope with difficult emotions and situations. I mainly work with individuals and couples facing challenging situations and seeking to improve their relationships with others. My approach I typically use a family systems-based approach when working with couples or those wanting to improve relationships. For individual issues, I tend to provide a more cognitive behavioral approach, as it is short-term and focused on supporting emotional challenges. My focus I primarily work with adult individuals and couples through telehealth. While I have experience with all age groups, I find I am most effective when working with individuals who are motivated to change and grow in order to manage emotional challenges and enhance their lives. My communication style I am casual and engaging with my clients, genuinely interested in getting to know them so I can offer the best possible support. Working with me feels comfortable, which allows clients to be open in sharing and receiving support. I am not a problem solver in the sense of trying to “fix” someone. Instead, I work collaboratively with clients to provide support, guidance, and resources, emphasizing that the client’s investment is as important as mine in resolving challenges. My goal is to equip clients with tools they can use successfully long after our sessions conclude. My journey to therapy As a child, I had some very painful experiences at the dentist involving multiple trips and many fillings—memories that have stayed with me. I decided then that I wanted to be a dentist who didn’t hurt people.
