Shuriee Gioieni, LMFT

My clients describe me as:

Genuine, nonjudgmental, and insightful. Clients say that I feel relatable, down to earth, and seen by me.

Something to know about my approach is:

I have a holistic approach to therapy and prioritize building a warm and connected therapeutic relationship. I effectively utilize EMDR to help my clients find deeper healing, and also incorporate DBT tools and mindfulness strategies.

Together, we will:

Slow down, connect, and breathe. I will support you in stepping into your power, finding relief from your past, and learning a more compassionate way to be with yourself. Learn to quiet that self critical voice and to create a more fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with people who:

Struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I can help you learn to care for yourself and to heal from painful past experiences or childhoods that didn't feel safe or loving. You deserve to feel happiness and peace.

I became a therapist because:

Life can be painful and we haven't all had the support we deserve. I want to help people to feel less alone and to build an internal sense of security

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I offer therapy across CA virtually - you can keep your furry friend close and stay cozy. I also offer therapy in my beautiful Santa Barbara office.

More about me and my practice:

My therapeutic style is centered around respect and empathy. I am also a certified yoga instructor and bring breathing, body awareness, and mindfulness into my practice.
