Individual Therapy

“The core experiences of psychological trauma is disempowerment and disconnection from others. Recovery, therefore, is based upon the empowerment of the survivor and the creation of new connections. Recovery can take place only within the context of relationships; it cannot occur in isolation.”

Judith Herman, "Trauma & Recovery"

YWCA Golden Gate Silicon Valley’s mission is supported through the deeper healing of trauma with a focus on empowerment, equity, awareness, and unconditional positive regard. We work to help our clients regain the freedom of choice, connect with and tolerate difficult feelings, and engage in relationships with others in a healthy, mindful way.

Therapy sessions are typically weekly and last 50 minutes, however it will depend on your unique needs and situation. We have locations in San Jose and Sunnyvale.

Our services are offered on an income-based sliding scale. We also accept Victim Witness Compensation.
