My Therapy Team takes self-improvement to a new level!

David Jacobs, Ph.D., Director

Our therapy team may be the best alternative for you if:

• Executive coaching isn’t going deep enough
• Individual or group therapy isn’t fast enough
• You’re not sure what kind of psychotherapy you need
• Intensive outpatient mental health programs are not individualized enough
• Weekend self-improvement workshops teach important lessons, but not necessarily what you need to learn right now
• You don’t need to be hospitalized in a mental health unit
• You are searching for new direction (who am I? what’s next?) after a major life event (divorce, career change, death of a loved one, illness or disability, empty nest, newly sober, etc.)
• You are ready to devote a week, several weeks, or even longer to improving your life

Your situation is the reason we created My Therapy Team. We provide intensive, individualized psychotherapy and coaching experiences (mostly or entirely in one-on-one sessions) for successful individuals who are eager to be even more successful by resolving their current conflicts and moving on in life.

Our approach is a balance of:

• proven AND leading edge treatments
• supporting you AND teaching you new skills
• increasing self-awareness AND making behavior changes

We are not “disorder” focused. You don't need to know your "diagnosis" before you arrive. If you knew your diagnosis, you might go to a clinic for "anxiety disorders" or "depression" or "PTSD." The reality is, however, that most people have multiple issues, not just one diagnosis. Many of our clients don’t have any diagnoses: you can attend here just because life isn't going the way you want, regardless of whether you face a crisis or long-term dissatisfactions. We will address all the issues that are relevant for you. In addition to nine psychotherapists our staff includes a psychiatrist, physician, dietician, yoga instructor, body worker, and several acupuncturists and massage therapists. We also use expert consultants as needed if we don't have the needed expertise on our own staff.

• motivated, successful, responsible, high functioning professionals or executives who nevertheless faces significant personal or business challenges
• young adults struggling to establish or maintain an identity or career path
• individuals with a combination of emotional or behavioral problems and addictive behaviors
• individuals with long term difficulties, who have participated in psychotherapy but without sufficient improvement

In addition to working with individuals by themselves, we also work with groups desiring to enhance their effectiveness, including couples, families and family businesses, and for-profit or non-profit work teams, sometimes combining work for both the individual team members and the team itself.

Adapting to our rapidly changing world while maintaining balance and perspective is rarely easy for anyone. If your situation or upbringing have also placed additional demands on you, it may be time to call in concentrated, professional help. Your therapy team will consist of up to nine highly qualified psychotherapists, who use a wide range of therapy approaches and techniques. Your team will work with you to identify and change problematic emotions, behaviors, thoughts, beliefs, relationships and situations. We will also work with whomever you wish (e.g., partner, child, business partner, etc.). Our experience shows us that the synergy created by the partnership between you and the therapy team leads to profound personal change.

In your time away from the office you will also have access to all that beautiful La Jolla and San Diego have to offer.

Think of us as a Spa for the Spirit!
