Geoff Winfree, M.A.
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Geoff Winfree has helped hundreds of individuals and families while in private practice since 1997 and have supervised other clinicians since 1999.
Real and effective change occurs in Psychotherapy, or counseling, when the relationship between you and your therapist focuses on your well-being and growth.
He provides counseling to individuals, couples, and families using a brief systems approach. This means treatment centers upon your presenting concerns within the context of your environment.
Mental health is best achieved in a family or marital framework using the power of relationships as a force for positive change. Geoff helps address a wide array of issues including depression, addiction and substance abuse, pornography, eating disorders, suicidal impulses, stress management, problems with self-esteem, issues associated with aging, job and career concerns, educational decisions, issues related to mental and emotional health, and family, parenting, and marital or other relationship problems.
By applying systemic principles, methods, and therapeutic techniques to your marriage and family for the purpose of resolving problems, he will help you modify your perceptions and behaviors, enhance communication and understanding, manage conflict, and achieve personal satisfaction, harmony within your family and a dramatically better quality of life.
Education and Credentials
Present Work and Affiliations Previous Career Experience
As a Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT), I work as a relationship specialist, trained to assess diagnosis and treat individuals, couples, families and groups. My goal is to assist clients in creating more satisfying and productive relationships. I practice premarital and marital counseling, child and youth counseling, divorce or separation counseling and other types of psychotherapy. As a practitioner in this field, I have extensive training in working with children, adolescents, couples, individuals and families. I have treated clients suffering from a wide range of emotional and behavioral difficulties. I have worked in an adult outpatient psychiatric facility, two family association clinics, and, for the last three years, a non-profit children’s agency, funded by the California Department of Mental Health. I am certified in the use of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). TF-CBT is an evidenced-based treatment that addresses the negative effects of traumatic events such as: physical, sexual or emotional abuse, life-threatening situations or significant losses. Often these experiences result in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or similar symptoms. By integrating several therapeutic approaches and treating both child and parent, TF-CBT is effective and one of the most successful treatments for trauma. This treatment is typically completed within 12-16 sessions. The other treatment modalities I use are eclectic in nature and are tailored to the needs of the individual, couple, or family. I focus on my client’s strengths, their abilities to make changes in their lives, and their desire to improve their overall wellbeing. I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients to implement appropriate interventions that reach their desired goals.
