Kristy Long is a California Board of Behavioral Sciences Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and Somatic Psychotherapy Specialist


Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, 132188 

Philosophy

I believe that everyone has the potential to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. My counseling services are designed to help clients unlock their potential and achieve their goals.

Therapeutic Approach

I believe in taking a client-centered approach to counseling, where I work collaboratively with clients to identify their goals and develop a personalized plan for treatment. 


Clients who benefit most from my practices struggle with 

  • anxiety, 
  • depression, 
  • panic, 
  • somatic symptoms, 
  • feeling overwhelmed, 
  • not knowing who they are or what they want, 
  • feeling isolated, 
  • passionless, 
  • existentially challenged, 
  • lack of motivation, 
  • difficulty with boundaries, 
  • trauma, 
  • problems in relationships or at work,
  • who have a hard time sticking to a plan. 


It can be hard to identify exactly why a person feels like they need therapy, but getting started and showing up is the hardest part!


I have a passion for Somatic practices as a retired athlete. The body holds onto energy that we have a difficult time connecting to at times, so it is an amazing tool to use for therapy. Our body can also be a great way to expand positive experiences! Let’s create a relationship with the body to do it all.


I offer a variety of evidence-based therapeutic methods:

  • Somatic Psychotherapy, 
  • Hakomi, 
  • Sensorimotor, 
  • Poly-vagal, 
  • CBT, DBT, ACT, and 
  • Attachment-informed practices. 
  • We also offer specialized services for Service Members, Veterans, children, and adolescents
  • Allied with LGBTQ+ individuals and families.


Please reach out with any questions about how to get started!
