Camille Carter, LMFT
My name is Camille Carter, I am a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and mother of two. I have had the privilege of living and providing counseling services in San Diego for the last twenty years. During this time, I have had the honor of working in a variety of counseling environments including residential homes, private and public schools, hospitals, foster family settings, mental health agencies and private practice. Throughout this time, I have enjoyed working with a number of diverse populations including children, teens, young adults, individuals, couples, families, other mental health professionals, teachers and administrators.
My training at San Diego State University was multicultural and Family-Systems based. As I have continued to learn and grow as a therapist, I have found myself drawn to a number of theoretical perspectives including Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Humanistic Psychology. I believe every individual, couple and family that I encounter will benefit from a variety of counseling techniques and interventions. I choose to base our treatment on the needs of my clients and not on one specific type of therapy. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree from San Diego State in Psychology and Master of Science Degree in Counseling/ Marriage and Family Therapy. I specialize in helping adults manage: Anxiety/ Stress, Depression, Family Transitions, Loss/ Grief, Communication Issues, and Conflict. My specialties in treating children/ teens/ tweens include: Self-esteem/ Self-image, Social Skills, Goal Setting, Controlling Impulses, Sadness/ Fear, and Life Skills. I look forward to helping you!
“Rather than viewing people as inherently flawed, with problematic behaviors and thoughts, I believe we all have the capacity and desire for personal growth and change. Individuals have within themselves vast resources for self-understanding and for altering their self-concepts, basic attitudes, and self-directed behavior; these resources can be tapped into if a definable climate of facilitative psychological attitude can be provided.” –Carl Rogers
